Vermona drumDING: A New Perspective on Drums

video upload by OoraMusic and vermonagear

"The Vermona drumDING introduces a quietly radical take on the drum machine. Built around a single synth voice, carefully shaped for percussion, it invites you to create your own kits in a direct and immediate way—where sound design becomes part of the moment, not something prepared in advance.
Sound, as it happens.
Let’s dive in."

ďrøñē âmbīęňț můşĩç / Mushsynth-8 and Noise Lab poly synth by Carlo / Universe Zen TESSERACT

video upload by G I P N O Z E R

"Rain pounded the neon signs, blurring them into oily stains on the wet pavement. The bar smelled of cheap whiskey and despair. I searched for her, the woman with eyes the color of old film, who whispered of "Transcendence"—a sound wave capable of tearing apart the fabric of reality. They said she created it from fragments of forgotten melodies, the whispers of space, and the pain of broken hearts. When I finally found her, she was already broadcasting "Transcendence." The sound penetrated my bones, dissolving the boundaries between me and the world. I closed my eyes, and the city disappeared. In its place was a forest of crystalline trees, and then an ocean where the sky was reflected in every drop. Each wave of "Transcendence" transported me to a new reality, increasingly strange and alien. I lost track of time, lost myself. Now I simply drift between worlds, a prisoner of endless echoes, forever trapped in a sonic loop created by a mad woman with eyes the color of old film. And I know there is no escape. There is only the next sound, the next reality, the next loss.

Expander: An Oberheim Retrospective

video upload by Alex Ball and Anthony Marinelli Music

"The story of the legendary synthesizer company, Oberheim electronics, founded by Tom Oberheim in 1969.

This film happened because of our collective love and passion for this story and was knocked together during evenings, weekends and spare hours over the course of many months. Thank you to all those who made it happen and a big thank you to my Patrons on Patreon for their ongoing support.

A special thanks to Tom Oberheim, Marcus Ryle, Anthony Marinelli, Dave Spiers and TC who gave up a lot of their personal time to give this film the material that it deserved.
