The type of music that he is likes is pavement, stephen malkmus, tom waits, Smog, Beck and lots of funk and dance music (mostly french house). I don't have a price range in my head, neither do I have a clue about getting anything that fits his requirements. Basically, I want to get him something that makes me look like I know more about making music than he does, despite the fact that I don't know what any of his gear does and feign instant boredom when he starts talking about his music machines.

Any advice or recommendations would be really appreciated - so thanks in advance...
