Vukodlak Productions- Hammond Vibrato Scanner


YouTube via ZmajSnoshaj

"Vukodlak Productions brings you "Hammond Vibrato Scanner". An musical adventure into the removal/disassembly/cleaning/and reassembly of a vintage vibrato scanner from a 1968 Hammond T-212 spinet organ. I spent many hours on this part of my restoration project in both learning about the scanner and it's design and making this music video, which in my opinion, is my most unique and comprehensive work to date.
Again I have many "thank you's" to give out on this one. First and foremost credit goes to Steve Leigh of SL-Prokeys for our 2 hour phone conversation regarding the vibrato scanner *among other things*... your advice and wisdom have made this and many past projects possible. You're a rare man Steve.
I'd also like to thank my Dad again for putting up with me and for showing interest in my work. God is good.. all the time ;) Another well-deserved round of applause to Christina Oldi of Greece for her master craftsmanship of jewelery and her insight into the finer details of my projects... and to Johnnie Shaffer for loaning me a lamp to work on my organs with *I love this little lamp Johnnie ;)*. And to Peter Hopkins for coming by during the most critical moments and laying waste to my progress :p *I need to be pulled away sometimes bro... hehe*.
Music credtis for this production go to the usual greats with one new addition. Title song is by Texas Blood "End Of The World"... you guys have been very patient and I thank you. First song is Life's Decay's "Gloria"... a wonderful track that has taste of their "Inksterna" song and aftertastes of "Descence"... excellent music guys :)) Second song is by friend and idol Fabio Frizzi for his "Hotel Lament" from the cult classic horror film "The Beyond", the second film of the unofficial "Gates of Hell" trilogy... you are an enigma to me Mr. Frizzi :))
Third track of the video belongs to The Horrorist, Mr. Oliver Chesler. Big thanks for his permission to use "Wire To The Ear" to finish of this work. You are a grandmaster of circuit bending and all things musically electronic Mr. Chesler ;) :))
This video has taken me a ridiculous amount of time to produce and much drama has transpired as a result of it so sadly, I may be taking a break from editing for awhile to join the ranks of the living world, but will indefinetely be back for more ;)
Enjoy."

  1. T-212, hands down my favorite Hammond organ. Selling England by the Pound, it is.

  2. Some people would just say 'I fixed the Hammond Vibrato Scanner' and give info vs. whatever this is.

    Vampire Hammond Repair Shop?
