Upcoming MoCM Workshop with Andreas Monopolis and the TAPETRON


YouTube Uploaded by TheMOCM on Dec 19, 2011

"The tapetron module It is based on the idea of the early samplers. 4 walkmans playing 8 mono lines from stereo pre recorted tapes (perhaps loop tapes) the controls are on/off, volume (for each line-loop) speed, forward/reverse. Dc -- battery power, line out."

"Andreas Monopolis will introduce us to his unique sound devices and he will discuss the notions of DIY on sound, sound moddules and music composing. 

A composer and performer of electronic and computer music himself, he soon caught on to the potential of both live shows and the experience of music making in terms of "instrument" use. MoCM sound solutions come as an answer to those fields which rely largely on software's algorithmic "point, scroll and click" routine; however they can easily adapt to all kinds of music genres.


By focusing on circuit-bending, prototyping and junk instrument philosophy, these DIY sound modules open a whole new world of creativity and experimenting for studio recordings or live performances. 
All modules are unique, incorporating a variety of materials and features. Hacked toys, old consoles, electronic components, pieces of wood and any kind of random objects are turned into synths, sound generators and noise makers which produce, reproduce and modify sound. Their feel is equally old school and futuristic, elegant and edgy, fun and inspiring.

MoCM workshop will follow on Saturday 31/3 and Sunday 1/4."
