What do you get when you combine sun, surf, hot artists and sizzling Roland gear? Music magic! We were incredibly privileged to play a role in the creation of Danny K and Sketchy Bongo’s hot new track, Inside My Head. We captured a little behind-the-scenes footage and heard from the guys about the unique approach they took to produce this chart-topping track.

Working from a villa in Camps Bay, and taking their influence from the weather and environment, these great local talents have really created a banger; we can’t wait to hear the rest of the album!

Roland Boutique Series: The size of a book, the sound of a legend
The Roland Boutique Series is all about portability and power. The Series consists of 3 virtual analog synths that emulate these classic Roland analog keyboards:
The Roland JX-03 module is based on the JX-3P synth
The Roland JU-06 is a recreation of the iconic Juno-106 synthesizer
The Roland JP-08 Synthesizer Module recreates the sound of the legendary Jupiter-8 synth
The Roland K-25m is a 25-note, velocity-sensing keyboard designated for use with the Roland Boutique Series synth modules, a unique and cool docking station.

JD-Xi: Tiny, mighty, and affordable
The JD-Xi synth is a musical toolbox; part analog synth, part digital synth, part drum machine, part sequencer, this is a musical instrument that demands creativity. With an array of performance features including loop building, recording of filter sweeps, TR-REC mode for classic Roland TR-X0X-style programming, part mute, and synced click output, the JD-Xi is a little synth with big ambitions…

FA-06: Taking the ‘work’ out of workstation
Effortless real-time power, ultra-fast workflow, and maximum versatility. Ready to support any type of music you play, the FA-06 is packed with a massive sound collection inherited from the flagship INTEGRA-7, a ton of studio-quality effects, and expressive real-time controls, plus onboard sampling with zero load time for instant audio playback from the 16 backlit pads. Flowing seamlessly into every part of your creative world, the FA-06 morphs instantly from a standalone keyboard to become the command centre of your computer music studio.
