"I'm not a hoarder anymore but a curator of a museum" 🙂
That's one to keep!

[@TilliKommunikation]

I'll remember that saying for my collection. ;-)

[@jasonanthonywebster8859]

Hahaha, that made me laugh when he said that 😂

[@maxs.3238]

"Now I don't have a hoarding addiction, I'm a museum curator. Two completely different things" you just gotta love this man😂

[@blas5i]

This is pure genius. I don't say this lightly. Watch 5 of his videos and you Will agree. Make your diagnosis into a tool for greatness.

[@JezNashMusic]

Love this guy. Defo want to take my students to see his place - such an inspiration! And thanks, LABS, for sharing this.

[@C28_Music]

Sam’s a bloody icon! 💅✨

[@BrandanLee]

In film industry art department we call it, "justified hoarding."
Do we have a use for it right now? No. But will we? Eventually, yes. And we never know when.

[@budgetkeyboardist]

Sam is amazing - he's so different. He's a breath of fresh air!

[@TeddyLeppard]

Believe it or not, I have a friend just like him. Been building his own synths since he was a kid and can program them, build them and play them... A rare personality, but one who is completely creative in all aspects of his life.

[@dedicatedspuddler7641]

Sam's a real inspiration!

[@WotanSkyFather]

Sam continues to inspire. "Don't be scared to try it!"

[@bentsound]

I can relate to that hoarder statement

[@angelriver7704]

What a guy!! Truly and wonderfully eccentric and brilliant!!

[@nonprofet]

[@paulmdevenney]

I'm loving this. I'm sure others also asked spitfire to look at Sam, but I'm glad its finally happened.

[@sn1000k]

So inspiring. Touching even. Bless you sir!

[@LFOVCF]

You guys need to go to his museum, it's otherworldly!

[@PeteJohnson1471]

Sam's so modest, and an absolute genius.
Great interview and tour of some of the museum.

[@Mr_A_Mia]

Wow. What a treat!

[@chrismassa5891]

Excellent interview

[@EricWatkins7]

I've met a few manic geniuses like this guy. I know nothing about him, but it's obvious that he's brilliant, and probably also tortured by a mind that never stops. Fascinating though, and he seems happy.

[@quantumsuicide9879]

Yep, adhd is a wonderful thing

[@BaltimoreReese]

fascinating and absolutely brilliant

[@scrapsaudio7]

Super inspiring video, loved it 🔥

[@jts-jc8jk]

Sam is incredible. I love his creativity and playfulness. As a musician who's also interested in electronics, I so wish I could be like him. "Lovely Juvly" is my favorite phrase that he says.

[@micwarren21]

Amazing Creativity.

[@AmdisenAnders]

Fantastic ! Sam... You are my spirit animal

[@iosmusicman]

Ace stuff as always Sam. Cheers. Lee

[@wideyxyz2271]

Nice to see you on here Sam!

[@OneSwitch]

A young musical Tim Hunkin. Top man.

[@karido4974]

It looks really good, would visit.

[@BoogieBear]

Amazing and different! Good lad Sam 😁

[@Autistic_Artist]

It’s definitely on my bucket list to go there.

[@Bildernaut]

Big Respect !

[@traida111]

his organ playlist is epic, to taking it from Joans house, to setting it up, just epic, its not quite finished yet but he's getting there

[@AttamanKing]

This is totally insane and beautiful at the same time, love it🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@monsieuralix]

My guy is straight fire, love his body of work 🔥🔥🔥

[@dcallan812]

We all have piles of technical "spares" that might be useful someday. 😘👌😂

[@dighawaii1]

Amazing

[@FloatingSpaces]

This is a perfect place to film "Black Mirror" ! Love this space omg what a wonderland!

[@swiss4366]

I love Sam so much

[@paradonym]

He's the only one who could easily do a scarier music video than Aphex Twin ten years ago

[@apricotdog]

I could spend all day in there😅

[@randymiles7023]

I love how playful he is with all this old fragile stuff... Nothing is sacred!

[@JamesPearson]

Love Sam, such a brilliant guy with a wonderful RUclips channel. "Don't be scared to try it!" rings in my ears (in a good way) when I have my doubts over my electronics capabilities!! :D

[@music_creator_capable]

Good!

[@BuzzaB77]

what a colab

[@davidallenhammond2777]

WOW!!!

[@johans8929]

blessed

[@chambre466]

wow that s very interesting

[@JeepinBoon]

Before I could afford to buy modular synth modules, I built them. I still have two modules left over that weren't good enough to make it in the first modular build. Now, I have so much synth collecting spider webs... My passion died when I realized I could make any sound from any classic analog synth with what I have.

[@ElectronicMusicOpenMic]

THX

[@mattslumwormreyes]

Sam rules!

[@paradonym]

His house is a musical instrument

[@DrummClem]

What a time to make music

[@AbAb-th5qe]

I love this guy 😂

[@kreuz7sieben]

I want to go there so bad 😅

[@sekanuel]

Imagine the electricity bill of this guy

[@AdamHarte]

One modern gaming computer would use more than all of that combined

[@ronricherson6685]

I'm speechless...except for WOW

[@nesofearth]

💚

[@markkilley2683]

My kind of place.

[@kentxx12]

SAM is just a genius legend now at his young age :)

[@Corpu5]

❤👍

[@Felttipfuzzywuzzyflyguy]

National treasure

[@pianomusic7132]

What happened to LABS? Is this project dead?

[@motomuso]

I wonder if Sam is a friend of Fran.

[@JMach4217]

Random question, @LABS .....what font did you use at 1:30 for the CC?

[@skevosmavros]

It seems to be from the Space Grotesk Font Family.

[@Melltronster]

How much is the electric bill for all this stuff?

[@scottturcott1710]

How much is the power bill on this place lol

[@reallygreatcontent]

What's the font at 1:33, please?

[@skevosmavros]

It seems to be from the Space Grotesk Font Family.

[@mamakuproject]

Where abouts is this?

[@PeteJohnson1471]

Ramsgate

[@thecallofthevoids]

€5,000 monthly electricity bill

[@13StJimmy]

“Always buy broken, because if you can fix it you can save a tonne of money”
I wish I shared in your enthusiasm Sam but we’re not all determined geniuses 😂

[@Desert-edDave]

🥱

[@roncarlson7682]

Can't use much of it for performance then, can you? I mean, but that's not the bleedin' point then is it? Ta.

[@gianni1646]

What’s with the horrible audio on the interviewer?

[@allen394]

The sain people are all in asylums, only the true artists are in the outside world. Madness is not an illness, it's a gift. 😂😂😂

[@mdoerkse]

He might have ADHD.

[@PeteJohnson1471]

He's spoken before about procrastination and has a song called Human Procrastination, look for it ;-)
