Sagittarius 1994 Lemaril video
YouTube via studio35d.
"In 1994 I created a track that I called 'Sagittarius'. As an experiment, I also created a video for the track. The video is a live performance with additional footage (for different cam-angles) and effects.
The main instrument you hear on the track is the Yamaha SY77. Other synths such as Pro-One and Mono/Poly were used for additional effects and sequences. Rhythm sounds are short samples of analog synth sounds on the DSS1.
Sequencing was done on Amiga500 with Music-X software.
I didn't have any editing facilities for video available at the time, except for this fantastic [Insert] button on my VCR. You could add footage over your main video track, without erasing the original sound, which was cool. Drawback: Once you messed up, you had to cover it up with something else that lasts a little longer.
The video contains some flaws, which I preferred not to edit, just to keep it as original as possible."

that's a cool synth tune. I dig the old school of making actual music with electronics.
ReplyDeleteCompletely, totally, and utterly fantastic. I loved it!
ReplyDeleteexcellent!
ReplyDeleteThat was class, from the music to the video.
ReplyDeleteI catch myself missing old analog video (like the Polish JX3 video). I should probably check ebay for an old Quasar video camera tethered to the tape deck pack.
I'd like to know what did the morphing blinky lights =o]
ReplyDeleteAMIGA!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is old skool vintage! I wasn't even born yet!
ReplyDeleteyeh, 13 years.. thats like, so totally old skool - like, totally
ReplyDeletewell, a lot happened in these thirteen years, and quite a lot regarding chenges in wht defines electronic music and how it's perceived universally.
ReplyDeleteheck, I'm way older than that!
sorry about them typos. I meant changes and what.
ReplyDeletecheers.
Thank you so much for your great warm comments to my video. Now I wish I had done some more of these vids. Perhaps I should be making some of my current setup.
ReplyDeleteThe 'morphing blinky lights' effects were done by filming the camera's own image again (so it's filming itself again and again and again (similar to "feedback"). The 'REC' LED indicator, which the cam was seeing in the reflection of the monitor, was triggering a smear of light. By carefully rotating the camera, some cool effects appeared. I don't think you can do something like that anymore on digital cams. I haven't tried it anymore though.
