New storage furniture and room rearrangement

[rigger67]

My system's not changed too much - the Linn Kans were the last big purchase, though I have bitten the bullet and gone MC with a new AT-F7 which is bedding in nicely - though I have bought a couple of CD racks to replace my old homemade shelving and also swapped out the old wooden LP storage units for a new IKEA Hemnes jobbie.

This is my new view when listening to music :

And this is the rest of the room :

Vader Mask!!

Would you like me to tell you it using the voice synthesiser box so you get the full Vader effect ??

[rigger67]

Funnily enough, I used to use it to hold my headphones but prefer to keep them in a box these days :D

Like the room - very 'busy' but homely :)

Love the "Miles" feature wall did you do this yourself, it looks very professional.

[rigger67]

I painted it myself - the bull and Miles himself, plus the background - but the lettering was done by a mate of mine, the in-store artist at Tower Records, Southampton.
I was manager there and each store had one so we could create our own bespoke campaigns and the setup was a Mac and a vinyl cutter. The artist would generally paint a backboard then use the cutter for the lettering and any logos that might be used. If you look at the first picture, you'll see an Elvis header board down the right-hand wall. There's also a Rudy Van Gelder header above the door as you come in to the room which you can see in the third photo, all by the same guy. They were store stock, but the Sketches wall was just for me :)

I think it is in France :)

Yeah, I love house plants.
My flat has twenty feet of south-facing windows .. on both floors !
The bathroom was like a jungle a few months ago but I went at it with a machete during winter and cut back a lot of it.
Seriously, I had one plant that went round the entire room, dangling bits all over the shop .. which is what that rooms for anyway, I s'pose :)
