Expressive E’s Osmose, the Keyboard Hans Zimmer Used to Score ‘Dune 2’, Now Has a $999 USD Controller Edition

Expressive E is making a powerful tool for film scoring more accessible. The French company has unveiled the Osmose CE, a simpler version of their innovative keyboard that’s quickly become popular in Hollywood. After composer Hans Zimmer used several of these keyboards to create the unique sounds for Dune: Part Two, Expressive E is now offering a version geared towards a wider range of musicians and producers. By removing the built-in sound generator, the Osmose CE is designed to be a hands-on control center for those who already use music software on their computers.

WACKO MARIA and New Era Bring Heavy Embroidery to Their SS26 Collection

As a big fan of both brands, I’m really excited about the new WACKO MARIA and New Era collaboration! They’ve dropped some awesome 59FIFTY and 9FORTY caps for Spring/Summer 2026. What I love is that they kept things clean and focused – no unnecessary details. Instead, they went with really striking, precisely embroidered lettering on classic New Era cap styles. It’s a bold look that’s all about the details!
