FM3 have completed the third edition of their popular Buddha Machine series. Due out in December, Chan Fang (translation: “Zen Room”) drops the drone tones of previous releases for four extended classical loops.

We don’t have any samples of the machine yet, but we do have more photos and a video of someone performing with a Qin…
