Entropical paradise (with bird call)

Listen to this one in stereo with headphones for the full effect.

"Douglas Leedy's classic composition "Entropical Paradise (with bird call)", performed live at the annual German modular synth convention „Happy Knobbing" on a 200e.

This piece has first been released in 1968 on the triple album by the same name. Leedy composed it for a Buchla 100 system that belonged to the electronic music studio of UCLA. Originally this piece was 20 minutes (which reflects the length of one side of an LP)."

EntropParadise Clip by bartonmusic

"I noticed a post about Douglas Leedy's Entropical Paradise. I've put up this little clip of the original -- it is such a "classic". I learned synthesis from my friend Douglas Leedy in Portland, Oregon in the 19070's on his Buchla Music Easel [Tardis?]. Back in the day he gave me his triple album set, Entropical Paradise as a model and inspiration. I'm uploading this very short clip to show the organic nature of his patches that almost seem to breathe and also have great musical inflection and sense of space. Doug, if you want me to take this down just say the word!"
