ANALOG-SYNTH FLASHBACK MP3

"Earlier this month, Charles Amirkhanian uploaded another of his archival nuggets: a 1971 radio broadcast focused on analog synthesizers. According to the write-up at archive.org, where the file is housed (MP3), the Mills College Electronic Tape Music Center hosted an event that year inviting San Francisco Bay area residents to drop by and play with various synthesizers, among them Moogs and Buchlas. Don Buchla himself brought some of his inventions, and Amirkhanian reports live from the event, in between what sound like field recordings from the sets of science fiction films. The event, organized by Tom Zahuranec, is titled 'Bucket-Ful Mercury Walk.'"

  1. HI, I just wanted to pass on the updated link to the audio for the Tom Zahuranec/Radio event mentioned here. (I manage the archive for the project uploading all these preserved programs): Radio Event 13: Bucket-Ful Mercury Walk
    Our main site, radiOM is being revamped but check that if interested in finding out more about our collection and listening to other programs.
    Nice blog!
    cheers.
