[edit] microKORG
Welcome to Wikipedia. Regarding this edit to Wikipedia's article on the Korg microKORG, I have replaced the list with a concise paragraph that mentions a few key musicians. It could still be improved, e.g by explaining why it is notable that those artists use a microKORG, preferably with quotes and references, as in the following example:
- "Liam Howlett of The Prodigy used a microKORG extensively on the band's 2004 album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned. In an interview for Korg's official website, [1] Howlett said that "The microKORG is wicked. You've only got to put it on big speakers to hear the depth it's got. It's got so much power for a little keyboard.""
If you could flesh out the rest of the list, in the same way, that would be superb. Your extensive contacts at Korg USA could prove very useful, although remember that Wikipedia forbids original research. It's a better way to write an encyclopaedia than this:
- - The Prodigy uses a microKORG.
- - The Stiletto Formal uses a microKORG.
- - These Arms Are Snakes uses several microKORGs.
- Etc
And so forth. En masse, this blurs into nothing, and that's not including the Myspace artists with a handful of hits, and instances where the instrument is pointed out in videos, in the studio etc (and "Nick Cornwell of Efflixi wants a MicroKORG", which I will use as an example in years to come). -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 20:38, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
