Monome Community Earthquake Disaster Emergency Album


落ちる n; 立ち上がる n+1 ... fall n; rise n+1

by monome community




"This compilation of original music and sound has been generated in the days immediately following the staggering 9.0 earthquake which ravaged Japan, and is released in support of the ongoing rescue and reconstruction efforts ongoing today. Regardless of whether you enjoy or appreciate this music, please make a donation to an aid organization responding on the ground to this disaster.
www.doctorswithoutborders.org/donate/overview.cfm
www.jrc.or.jp/english/index.html
shelterbox.org
We suggest that Medecin Sans Frontieres ( Doctors Without Borders ), the Japanese Red Cross and Shelterbox are good choices for a monetary donation, as they are presently engaged on the ground with the recovery effort, but regardless, we ask that in whatever fashion, no matter where you are, you aid the positive recovery of the japanese people, the human race, and all of the earth from this tragic event."

"The Monome Community, an eclectic ensemble collective of electronic artists, have come together once more, in response to Tohoku Chiho Taiheiyo-oki Jishin, the Tohoku region Pacific Ocean offshore earthquake which rocked Honshu Island Japan only days ago. Using sampled, synthesized representations of seismic event data collected from the devastating earthquakes, participants created a wide variety of remixes and compositions as a cathartic response to the sheer power of the earth.

"We make music and raise awareness in the face of this tragedy because we are musicians and human beings, and in the face of such power, there is nothing that can be done from afar than to stand up and say 'we are aware of your plight, we are with you in spirit, and you are not forgotten'."

- leif, the lokey baselayer

地震、津波、火災、原発事故、安住の地は一瞬にして地獄となった。
復興への道は長く険しいだろう。
しかし、家族、友人、地域への想いが勇気と強い意志を育み、復興は見事に成し遂げられるだろう

The earthquake, tsunami, fire and nuclear accident transformed their peaceful places into scenes from hell in a second.
The road to reconstruction must be long and tough.
However, their passion for their families, friends and communities develops courage and willpower, and they will make remarkable recovery.

released 21 March 2011
many tracks on this album were created using samples of Micah Frank's synthesized compositions, derived from seismic data from the Tohoku Chiho Taiheiyo-oki Jishin, the Tohoku region Pacific Ocean offshore earthquake which rocked Honshu Island Japan only days ago. Intended as a cathartic response to the impermanence of our existence on this planet. If you are moved by these musics, please donate something to aid the ongoing rescue and reconstruction efforts in and round Japan.

Today we'll be picking up where we left off with Thor's oscillator types, namely the multi-oscillator and the noise oscillator. There's a lot to these simple looking modules! From there we'll move over and take a look at the filter sections in Thor and I'll introduce you to the semi-modular routing buttons which help move signals through Thor."

55 No Sequencer Sequence


YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Mar 21, 2011

"In this video I try to see if I can make a sequence without actually using a sequencer. So I put three square wave oscillators into a quantizer and let the quantizer trigger the sound of the patch. The three oscillators first run out of sync and then get synced to see how that affects the sequence. The result is very interesting and ever changing. Adding modulation furthers the experience."

Guess the famous pattern which was used on the x0xi0 - you should be able to guess it around 04:30

This is 11m one single pattern, so consider it as boring and just a demonstration of the incredible capabilities of the x0xi0-mod sounds, especially the overdrive mod. I do especially like how it's crying at 10:00 ++

I did this at the end of last year but was never really happy with it. On one hand I had a take2 on my todo-list for 16 weeks now and its time to scratch stuff - on the other hand I felt like I should upload something new here - so here we go with take1. If it hurts and your ears start bleeding because you're missing things like a compressor - just watch other glossy stuff from glossy people. Otherwise turn the volume up and undergo the sweetness of clipping!

Spectrasonics "Bob Moog Tribute Library" to benefit Bob Moog Foundation

"Bob Moog Foundation Announces Spectrasonics Benefit

New Spectrasonics’ Omnisphere Library and Contest to Win Custom OMG-1 Synth to Raise Funds for the Foundation

ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA — MARCH 21, 2011 — The Bob Moog Foundation today announced that music software developer Spectrasonics has launched a unique, multi-faceted tribute to honor the legacy of synthesizer pioneer Dr. Robert Moog. Spectrasonics has released the “Bob Moog Tribute Library” created by renowned artists for Spectrasonics’ Omnisphere® virtual instrument software, and also kicked off a contest designed around the library, where participants enter to win the one-of-a-kind “OMG-1” hardware synthesizer created by Spectrasonics’ Founder, Eric Persing. 100% of the proceeds from this Tribute go to benefit the Bob Moog Foundation.

Spectrasonics’ Bob Moog Tribute library features over 700 stunning new sounds for Omnisphere, Spectrasonics’ flagship synthesizer, and was produced by Persing. The sounds in the new library were created by more than 40 of the world's top synth artists, remixers and sound designers, including Hans Zimmer, Vince Clarke (Erasure/Depeche Mode), Jean Michel Jarre, The Crystal Method, Jordan Rudess, Money Mark (Beastie Boys/Beck), Bernie Worrell (P-Funk/Talking Heads), Larry Fast (Peter Gabriel/Synergy), Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Air/Fiona Apple), Ryuichi Sakamoto (YMO), Morgan Page (Madonna/Katy Perry), Keith Shocklee (Bomb Squad/Public Enemy), Steve Porcaro (Toto), Fredwreck (Snoop Dogg/50 Cent), Jan Hammer (Jeff Beck/Mahavishnu Orchestra), Michael Boddicker (Michael Jackson), Richard Devine (Aphex Twin), Patrick Moraz (Yes/Moody Blues), Eddie Jobson (UK/Roxy Music), Diego Stocco, Danny Elfman, The Moog Cookbook, and many more.

“Through this stunning Tribute Library, Eric Persing's passion for sonic innovation is manifested in a multi-layered homage to Bob Moog's pioneering work and legacy,” said Michelle Moog-Koussa, executive Director of the Bob Moog Foundation. “That passion is continued through the myriad of synthesists and sound designers who have participated by donating sonic tributes in the way of patches and sounds. The Bob Moog Foundation is deeply grateful to Eric, Spectrasonics and the participating musicians for the creativity and generosity that has driven this project. Without a doubt, the funding generated from the Tribute Library will be a tremendous help in driving our mission forward.”

The grand prize in Spectrasonics’ contest, the OMG-1 hardware synthesizer, was designed by Persing as a live performance instrument and is not a commercial product — it’s truly one-of-a-kind, integrating the worlds of analog synthesis, computers, software synthesis and the latest multi-touch surfaces into one extraordinary instrument. The state-of-the-art dual manual OMG-1 combines a Moog Little Phatty® analog synthesizer, Spectrasonics’ flagship Omnisphere software synthesizer, a powerful internal Apple Mac Mini computer, dual Apple iPads®, dual iPods®, and Spectrasonics’ brand-new Omni TR™ iPad app — all integrated into a beautiful, hand-crafted curly maple cabinet created by American artisan Daniel Auon.

Contestants vying to win the OMG-1 buy and download the $100 “Bob Moog Tribute Library" for Spectrasonics’ Omnisphere software, then write one or more pieces of music utilizing the sounds from the library. The deadline for submission is July 15, 2011. Spectrasonics will be flying the contest winner to the October 2011 “MoogFest” in Asheville, NC, where Eric Persing will present the OMG-1 grand prize to the winner.

YouTube Uploaded by misadigital on Mar 21, 2011

"http://www.misadigital.com - for preorder and more info

my personal opinion is that a true digital guitar is not just about "triggering notes" - it's about controlling sound. it's about making the instrument feel like it was designed FOR synthesis, instead of the other way around. playing guitar involves complex interactions, and synthesizers have complex parameters. the misa kitara meshes these two concepts together not with overly complex algorithms, but with an (IMHO) elegant solution that works with the core concepts in synthesis.

all sound in the video is generated by the kitara only."

"Wish You Were Here" cover on the Eigenharp Alpha


YouTube Uploaded by gbevin on Mar 21, 2011

"A few weeks ago Greg from Orange Tree Samples was so kind to send me a pre-release of his upcoming Evolution Acoustic Guitar - Steel Strings (EAG) product (http://www.orangetreesamples.com/evolution-acoustic-guitar-steel-strings).

I set it up so that the first six percussion keys of the Alpha correspond to the strings of an actual guitar for which I play the chords on the upper split of the keyboard with the EAG strum instrument. The lower split of the main keyboard also uses EAG but with the lead instrument to play the melody line. I also use a foot pedal to sustain notes and chords when needed.

I'm really amazed by how natural the combination of the Eigenharp Alpha together with Evolution Acoustic Guitar feels. You can strum, pick, release chords to play muted strums, do hammer-ons and pull-offs, ... etc.

I'll be looking at an even tighter integration to correctly play up and down stroke samples based on the direction by which you're strumming over the percussion keys ... stay tuned."

Alesis Andromeda plucked string and wind instrument sounds by CoolColJ
"Attempting some Physcial Modelling sounds :)
just some Lexicon chamber reverb to add space

Bare in mind they are very basic - not much modulation going one for expressions etc
But they serve as a nice template for further experimentation
That hard sync sound of the A6 can do a lot - I used it for these patches and some piano emulations

I own a Yamaha VL-1 although I haven't done too much on it
Although I think the analog tone of the Andromeda feels a bit more cosy :D

The click/thump on the string attack is a bit annoying, I can't seem to remove it no matter what I do Slower engine optimiser settings don't help much"
