808

The Roland TR-808 Sequencer

Roland introduced this analogue synthesiser in 1981 and it was used in many 80's tunes. The sounds, when not processed by other equipment, has a trademark "hollow/tinny" sound. The trademark sound of this synth is the "cowbell".

16 total sounds, 12 voice polyphony. Midi In/Out

The Roland 808 is how an 80's garage band could get away with not having a good drummer.

Psychopath

It is time to note the difference between a psychopath and a psychotic.

Psychopath:

A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy or remorse.

Psychopaths tend to lack normal human emotions such as guilt. They are also often highly intelligent and skilled at manipulating others.

Also, psychopaths seem to appear normal. You would probably never guess there was something wrong with them.

Note, not all psychopaths are serial killers.

Ted Bundy was a psychopath, but Richard Chase was a psychotic.

Nokia

A Finnish company specialising in communications equipment. Many people know Nokia for their cellphones, however they also market complete comms systems, DSL equipment, and cable TV components.

Nokia sells mainly "candybar" type phones marketed to techy nerdular types, however they sell handsets in the extreme low end (1100) and the extreme high end (Vertu) of the market.

They sell more handsets than anyone else.

The Nokia name is impossible to pronounce correctly in English because there are sounds in it that don't exist in English.

I have a Nokia ADSL modem.

And a Nokia cellphone.
