"Yankee Dollar" Opening (Miami Vice) "Last Call" Jan Hammer Cover w/"Par Avion" Mike + the Mechanics


Retro-Dade

"I made this Jan Hammer cover many years ago, but it was long-overdue for an update now that I have the mk1 DX7 and Memorymoog. I just ran my original midi file through the new instruments, so no performance video of me in this video--just some stills of the updated instruments along with the original images from the episode, synced to the correct time code. The "Par Avion" song compliments the Jan Hammer song so well, I decided to add/sync that audio as well, and just let the scene play out, as it's one of the more memorable openings of the entire series. Enjoy!

I do not own the video images of Miami Vice or the audio of 'Par Avion', and the original Miami Vice score was composed and performed by Jan Hammer. This video is strictly for entertainment purposes. All rights belong to Universal and Atlantic Records."

Isolation - COVID-19 Response Compilation



breadforthecity.org/donation/covid19fund


This one is in via Dave Vosh who appears on the compilation.

"Isolation is a compilation benefitting Bread for the City's Covid-19 Response Fund. Bread for the City is a nonprofit in Washington, D.C. that provides food, clothing, and social services to those in need. COVID-19 has hit economically vulnerable communities particularly hard. Access to medical care and social services continues to be difficult and COVID-19 's effects on our nation's health and economy have made such access more difficult. All of this means that folks need whatever help we can provide now more than ever.

We know that every little bit helps, so we are using our noise, drone, and experimental music to help others.

If you like the sounds on this compilation, please check out additional music by the talented and generous folks who have made it happen.

If you hate the sounds on this compilation, please express your disgust with a massive donation to Bread for the City.

Moog Subharmonicon Jam (September 2020)


Rotate Shift Repeat

"Improvisation with Moog Subharmonicon through reverb & delay. Using Dreadbox Erebus & Doepfer Dark Energy as modulation utilities. This is an interesting being, if approached intellectually becomes fiddly and awkward but if used through feeling and listening becomes something else. For example the sequencer dials aren't marked and pretty small for precise settings to get the polyrhythm one is aiming for. Maybe using another module for generating precise CV and feeding that to the rhythm generators could achieve this but I'm actually finding setting these without too much care and carving out patterns from the chaos pretty rewarding.

GLASYS ft. T-Pain - Brinstar Underground Depths (Down For The Count) // Super Metroid Hip Hop Cover


GLASYS

"I finally collaborated with T-Pain! On a Metroid cover no less.
Download / stream here: https://fanlink.to/glasys_tpain

3 years ago T-Pain commented on a video of mine on Reddit and said he wanted to work together. We spent some time in the studio and went back and forth on a few different ideas, but nothing really happened until I sent him this Super Metroid live cover / remix of mine which he loved and immediately agreed to add vocals to.
This is the "Lower Brinstar" theme from the iconic 1994 Nintendo SNES game. I tracked my part live, playing all the sounds simultaneously. T-Pain then wrote lyrics and added some awesome vocals and harmonies in his signature autotune style.

I decided to release this track together with my other video game covers as well as originals that I performed in YouTube videos. The name of the album is "Off Screen - Video Recordings" and you can find it on most platforms (the Bandcamp version has the most tracks because not all the covers could be licensed for streaming).

You can also get a high quality download of this track if you support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/glasys

Hope you enjoy!

JMT SYNTH VDR-1



https://www.perfectcircuit.com/jmt-synth


"This is a synth drum with a built-in self-oscillating VCF.

It is equipped with a wideband oscillator and has a strong SWEEP effect.

You can create various tones by tapping on the body or with an external trigger (sequencer or piezo).

The oscillator has a thicker sound from highs to lows, and the waveform can be selected as TRIANGLE or SAWTOOTH.

SWEEP is set to be applied very strongly, so adjust it in conjunction with CUT OFF COARSE.

SUSUTAIN Setting of the decay time from the onset of sound

SENSITIVITY TRIGGER (When the plug is inserted into the trigger, the internal trigger of the unit is turned off) is to adjust the input sensitivity of the SENSITIVITY TRIGGER.

LFO.F controls the amount of LFO applied to the filter and LFO.

LFO.O controls the amount of LFO applied to the oscillator.

FINE is a finer pitch control for the oscillator than COARSE.

The RESONANCE oscillates at maximum and the pitch can be changed with the CUT OFF knob.

It can be powered by either a center minus 9V DC or 9V battery.

Noise Lab - Eurorack Modules from Stockholm


SchneidersLaden

"Noise Lab is a newly founded synthesizer company based in Stockholm, Sweden. They are starting with six modules forming an interesting synthesizer voice with lots of tricks up its sleeve. Besides the standard modules VCO, VCF, VCA Noise Lab also offers a
spectral mixer a very versatile Wave Shaper and a super-fast envelope. Here is a short overview about the new Noise Lab products.

Prime Mover is an advanced and versatile Voltage Controlled Oscillator based on the renowned 3340 chip. Four primary sound outputs generates Saw, Triangle, Pulse and Sine while individual wave shapers, one for each waveform, expands the sonic possibilities even further.

The Wrinkler consists of a primary wavefolder circuit and a secondary “creaser”, both controllable via knobs and CV. Generally wave folders only work with low harmonic content such as Sine or Triangle waves but this one comes with circuitry which can fold and wrinkle ANY waveform you feed into it, including square waves!

The Beautifier is a flexible OTA based filter, featuring a lowpass/bandpass switch and a selectable slope of 24db and 12dB.

Augmentor features two independent amplifiers with linear response, can also be employed as a signal splitter and works great to create ring-modulator sounds as well with CV control over both audio and CV signals.

Contourist is a general purpose Envelope Generator with three outputs (one inverted ) and three time ranges. From short and snappy (50 msec) to several minutes long contour curves.

The Fourcaster is a unique 4-channel analog crossfader a.k.a. interpolating scanner. Once you start working with it, you'll soon discover how you can create very complex sounds simply by fading between sources.

In this video we'll have a look at the whole product line by Noise Lab and have the chance to hear the modules in a musical context."

75 lbs?

"This is one of the first 8-voice synthesizers to be made along with the Jupiter 8. They are about the same vintage. The Voyetra though has a HUGE sound that cannot be matched by anything out there. It is very rare and is in perfect shape. I am the original owner having bought this at Manny's music NYC when it still was rocking along. It comes with a little cheat sheet for the programming options and the full manual in PDF can be found online.

It is around 75 pounds so local pickup is recommend but I will ship it if you like. Not sure what the shipping will actually be but wil guesstimate here."

"This is an awesome poly synth from the late 70s/early 80s. Super interesting, wild sounding synth with an awesome organ and string section. It sounds like an ARP went off it’s meds and flew over the cuckoos nest.

Only issues are a couple of missing fader tips, and a repaired key, but no problems at all with functionality. You’re gonna be making VERY bold decisions with your productions once this is in your studio."

It can pretend to be a "tap pedal" and tap tempo on guitar pedals++, it has gate outputs to send and recieve sync to analog gear, it sends and receives midi clock, via USB and 5pin DIN. It even has two gate pattern sequencers that can run in parallell. Sends and receives sync on everything!"
