1. First time unveiling our newly developed audio/visual synth (nicknamed “The Mind Boggler”) at Saturday Sounds today @OneEdMusic @CritterGuitari @Raspberry_Pi . Had to drag these guys away such was the hypnotic effect (hence the nickname!)
2. Also introduced the group to some of our lovely new accessible instruments @Artiphon @digit_music_ @Blackstaramps @CasioMusicUK. Thanks to @Barchester_FDN for their support!
Loving the @Blackstaramps carry on bass! Super easy to take to sessions and it sounds great.
Just wrapped up an incredible week of making music with some of the coolest accessible instruments! 🎶 The Chorda and Orba by @Artiphon, along with the @Oddball_LDN, made it so easy and fun to create and explore new sounds. #MusicTech #Artiphon #Oddball #AccessibleMusic
Big thanks @digit_music_ for sending the CMPSR! We love the case it comes in, it looks super cool. Can't wait to start using this accessible instrument!

We're excited to announce that, thanks to the generous support of @Barchester_FDN, we can now purchase more accessible musical instruments. This will enable more members of our community to enjoy making music. Here's our new Orba by @Artiphon being played at our Holiday Club

Anyone tried the @LoogGuitars for accessible music-making? I want one but unsure if it’s suitable for teens/young adults we work with. Wondering about alternatives - The Presidents of the United States of America (the band) only had 3 strings on their guitars. Maybe that?
Thanks for having us @YamahaUK @pBoneMusic @TechnologyinMu1! Saw some amazing kit and was super inspiring to see the work being done by @LancsMusic to create a local accessible instrument library! @OneEdMusic @Drake_Music @DrakeMusicRandD
Just arrived at Yamaha Music HQ for The Music Hub Conference 2024 in Milton Keynes. Buzzing with excitement and caffeine!!!
Some amazing work at our Harmonise and Elevate songwriting session today! If you know any young disabled/neurodiverse musicians who are interested in writing and recording their own songs, get in touch! @Young_MCR
Great opportunity for any @DrakeMusicRandD folks or other techy people looking to do a postdoc with a super interesting research topic!

🎶 What an incredible session we had at the @boilerhouse for our first Harmonise & Elevate event! 🎉 Thanks to the amazing support from @Young_MCR we were able to combine songwriting with mental health support in a way that truly resonated with everyone involved.
Hey everybody! We have a great session every Wednesday at @projektsmcr Projekts Skatepark with an hour of free skateboard coaching, followed by an hour of accessible music-making. If you are 11-25 and fancy coming along, get in touch!
Ohhh this looks like it'll be super interesting! bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-ma…
