A visit to the excellent Korg exhibit at the Musical Museum in Brentford gave birth to Korgin. A whole room dedicated to Korg synths, including one built into the wall that was used to teach Japanese school kids how synthesisers work, an all chrome Prologue that looked like it must have belonged to Daft Punk (but probably wasn't) and of course classics like the MS-20.

At one end of the room there were a bunch of hands on demo units including the Volca range, a MicroKorg and a Minilogue. After checking with the curator I plugged in my laptop and had a play around with as many as possible, recording the random outputs of preset pattens and jams, with plenty of knob twiddling on top.

When I got home, I listened back to it all, discarded half of it and chopped the rest up into what became Korgin. Everything in the track comes from that session at the museum apart from the 707 kick.
