Circular Keyboard


YouTube Uploaded by organfairy on Aug 23, 2011

"A couple of christmases ago I made a decoration that was inspired by J.M.Jarre's circular keyboard from the 1980's. Now it's time to take it one step further.

In this video I make an actual circular keyboard out of it. But I still need to make some kind of electronics for it. But now that I have made the mechanical part I don't believe that the rest will be that difficult.

The music is something I made in the year 2000 and is a Barbie-like take on Ralph Hütter and Florian Schneider's "Europe Endless" originally recorded by Kraftwerk in 1977. The arpeggio is made using a PC programme called SEQ-303. It is basically a 16 step sequencer on a PC with sliders and MIDI control. The rest is played on Yamaha HE-8 organ, Roland SH-2000 synthesizer, and Kawai MS-20 keyboard."
