💿 Cybersyn - le rêve brisé

video upload by Mamotreco

"This cinematic synth soundtrack was made using Waldorf PPG plugin emulations and other VST synths. Inspired by the golden age of francophone technocratic cyber-optimism of the late 70s and early to mid 80s, as identified by ‪@GiscardPunk‬ this track was actually written in the early 2010s for a concept album that never saw the light of day.

The Hope - Circuit3 & Vince Clarke

video upload by Circuit 3

Update: you can find an interview with Circuit3 and the collaboration on ELECTRICITYCLUB.CO.UK here.

"With grateful thanks to artist Jackie Hudson Lalor for the production of this video and Kat Lalor for assistance with post-production.

The Hope is taken from the album 'Metanoia: Music From Therapy' available on CD & Vinyl from circuit3.bandcamp.com, available in Digital from mortalitytables.bandcamp.com

Circuit3, the retro-futurist project of Dublin-based Peter Fitzpatrick, steps away from his melodic synthpop background on Metanoia. The album moves into spacious, quietly expressive instrumentals. The sound is minimal and tactile, shaped by the classic late70s and early80s electronic vocabulary without being locked inside it.

Metanoia grew out of therapy and the slow process of letting difficult truths surface. Instead of singing those words, Fitzpatrick shaped them through analogue machines. The title refers to the deep shift that can follow self-reflection: a break, a reset, a way of living with more honesty.

A defining moment in the project was the opportunity to work with Vince Clarke, a longstanding influence on Fitzpatrick’s music. They created an eleven-minute piece titled ‘The Hope’, named after the bar near Farringdon, London where that first conversation between Fitzpatrick and Smith happened. The collaboration feels like a dialogue across time: the artist Fitzpatrick once was, the one he is now, and the one emerging through this process.

The album closes with ‘The Hope’. Across eleven minutes, it builds a melodic drone landscape that holds both hopelessness and hope at the same time. The piece suggests that neither feeling disappears; they sit beside each other, always present, always waiting to be recognised."

The Electric Weasel Ensemble Strange/Buchla/Ruppenthal/Morse 2LP/2CD

"Below you'll find a press kit for a historic 2LP/2CD from The Electric Weasel Ensemble, a touring group of electro-acoustic musicians including Donald Buchla and Allan Strange.

Why is this group so important, you ask? Because they were playing Donald Buchla's instruments straight off his workbench and these instruments have gone on to help define the modern modular synthesizer era and business. Thankfully, the music is incredible, too."

EPK

Release date: Nov 27, 2026

Shifting continuously between minimalistic patterns, intricate soundscapes, and evolving textures of overlapping electronic sonorities, The Electric Weasel Ensemble presents a missing link in the history of electronic music. It is a series of previously-unreleased live recordings from a little-known but trailblazing ensemble of improvisers—equipped with a unique embrace of invented instruments and distinctly 1970s avant-garde sensibilities. This historic music is available on both double LP and double CD.

Founded in 1974 by composer Allen Strange and now-celebrated instrument designer Donald Buchla, The Electric Weasel Ensemble explored new directions in live performance with electronics, using Buchla’s sophisticated and unusual instruments as a launching pad.

Maintained for decades by Ensemble member Stephen Ruppenthal, these recordings include some of the best-preserved examples of Allen Strange’s pioneering compositions: graphically-notated directed improvisations for electronic and electronically processed acoustic instruments. They also offer rare insight into the radical sonic aesthetic that Buchla’s inventions enabled in the Bay Area music scene.

Focused on performance and DIY music distribution, the Electric Weasel Ensemble never widely released their music. Transferred from the original quarter-inch reels at Imprec, mastered for vinyl by Tom Eaton at Sounds and Substance, and pressed at Optimal in Germany, this record is a glimpse into the raw creativity and inventiveness that fueled the early decades of electronic music performance.

Who is the Electric Weasel Ensemble?

How do you build a new type of music from the ground up? The Electric Weasel Ensemble continually orbited this very question: inventing new instruments and, through collective play, learning to communicate in their unfamiliar, emergent languages.

The Weasels operated along the fringes of Northern California’s 1970s music scene, drawing equally from avant-garde and electronic composition, free improvisation, cybernetics, and the Bay Area’s psychedelic-fueled, countercultural spirit. A group of self-proclaimed “music outlaws,” their eclectic, anything-goes approach eschewed traditional notions of harmony, melody, form, and virtuosity—informed by their evolving relationships with new technology.

The Evolving Riddle V2 by Benge

video upload by Memetune Studio

"New album out now:



This track was made on a Crumar DS2 from 1978

As one’s life winds its way through the corridors of infinite time and space, I find myself relocated and reset, so to speak, in a place many miles and many moons from the West Country—my former domain—in one of the shires just north of our splendid capital

And I find myself once again following my musical instincts down yet more labyrinthine sonic rabbit holes and through yet more labyrinthine electronic circuit boards

On this outing I decided to try my hand at live sound-on-sound improvisational looping, a method of composition I find particularly rewarding when using relatively unwieldy modular synthesiser systems. The act of looping provides a convenient way of setting down short compositions in real time, allowing simple melodic studies to be created, riddles, if you will, to be solved whilst sitting at the instrument’s console and engaging with the various dials and switches

The core device used on this recording is what I call the Concrete Box - an assortment of Eurorack modules I put together consisting of four loopers, two delays, two digital reverbs, two compressors and various mixers and utility units. Using this box of tricks I was able to run sounds around upon themselves, creating the pieces you hear on this album

Not all tracks were made this way, some took a more conventional path, namely those which made use of polyphonic keyboard synthesisers (the Ensoniq Fizmo, the Crumar DS2) where I simply recorded a few layers of sound one upon the other

And on one track I made use of a rather special device called the Tempera, alongside a regular acoustic piano. The device is able to take stereo recordings and resynthesise them using granular synthesis. You are then able to layer them and manipulate the sound in a great variety of ways. Practical applications of granular synthesis have been around since the mid 1990s, but it is only now, it seems, that dedicated hardware units are beginning to appear on the market, and they seem to be taking hold as an extremely interesting synthesis path

And so it is that these riddles I have been working on have been neatly packaged up for you in this second volume, itself a kind of evolution of the idea presented in the first of the series last year. And who knows where I will find myself in another year’s time - hopefully still diving down sonic rabbit holes and exploring labyrinthine electronic circuits

Consonant Dissonance by John C.S. Keston

"Consonant Dissonance is a series of piano improvisations that examine how human expression in piano performance can be emphasized or contrasted by feeding the signals into a bespoke modular synthesizer designed to sample and reprocess the piano in real-time. For each piece the piano signals are handled in different ways. These include granular synthesis, looping, pitch shifting, reverse, analog filtering, delay, and reverberation, all modulated via a function generator, low frequency oscillators, and a sampling touch controller operated by the performer.

Recorded at The University of St Thomas, Schoenecker Center, Audio Studio on a Kawai RX-3 grand piano. Composed, performed, and produced by John C.S. Keston. Gratitude goes out to Alejandro Vega for engineering assistance, and Adam Krinsky for mixing and mastering consultation.

John C.S. Keston is an award winning transdisciplinary artist reimagining how music, video art, and computer science intersect. His work both questions and embraces his backgrounds in music technology, software development, and improvisation leading him toward unconventional compositions that convey a spirit of discovery and exploration through the use of graphic scores, chance and generative techniques, analog and digital synthesis, experimental sound design, signal processing, and acoustic piano. Performers are empowered to use their phonomnesis, or sonic imaginations, while contributing to his collaborative work. Keston founded the sound design resource, AudioCookbook.org, where you will find articles and documentation about his projects and research."

The Hope - Circuit3 & Vince Clarke [excerpt] from Metanoia: Music From Therapy

video upload by Circuit 3

"Circuit3 announces Metanoia: Music From Therapy, an instrumental album of analogue synthesis, personal reckoning, and a collaboration with Vince Clarke that reshaped the project.

The album closes with ‘The Hope’, the collaboration with Vince Clarke. Across 11 minutes, it builds a melodic drone landscape that holds both hopelessness and hope at the same time. The piece suggests that neither feeling disappears; they sit beside each other, always present, always waiting to be recognised.

Energy Field by Reductionist

via Nick Wilson of Clan Analogue: "I'm touching base about a new release from Australian electronic music collective Clan Analogue by the Melbourne artist Reductionist. I thought it might be of interest to you as a release made entirely with cheap Korg gear, specifically the Monotron, Monotron Duo and Volca Modular.

The release is a two-track single called 'Energy Field'."

From BandCamp:

[before the Big Bang and the beginning of time…]

"There was no matter. All that existed was space/time and energy. An ocean of energy, almost still but gently rippling. A near still ocean of energy filling the void." Brian Cox, Universe (BBC, 2021)

Reductionist explores the wavefolding of time and space using battery-powered technologies and microvirtuosic technique with the debut release Energy Field.

Reductionist utilises the humblest of ephemeral technologies, including battery-powered micro-instruments, forgotten music tech products, and cheap effect pedals, to express through sound the vastest concepts that we, as humans, can attempt to comprehend.

The title track is inspired by the idea of an immeasurable energy field, theorised to have existed before the Big Bang, with the entire Universe lying dormant, waiting to emerge into existence…

The new single also includes the extended companion piece “Energy Field Refolding”. Could the Universe refold into itself as an energy field once again? Humans are attracted to the idea of rebirth - perhaps we need to imagine that existence will always continue in some form.

Reductionist is the solo project for electronic music artist Nick Wilson, whose previous work has included Random Acts of Elevator Music, Darrow, Tiatto, City Frequencies and Continuum. Nick has also been the Label Manager for Australia’s longest-running electronic music collective Clan Analogue over the last twenty years. In 2025 Reductionist and multimedia artist Aday collaborated on the MacroVerse collaborative performances at the Abbotsford Convent, which were nominated for the Best In Music category at the 2025 Melbourne Fringe Awards.

“Energy Field” is the first track to be released from the forthcoming Reductionist album MacroVerse. Prepare for existence and experience Energy Field.

released June 9, 2026

The Prophet

video upload by Robin Rimbaud-Scanner

"What began as a little studio playtime with a new software synth from GForce developed into this neat little EP.



I made a little demo online for social media and had a number of requests to make this track available, so you not only get that track, but also three additional tracks, all of which I made on the same day.

A little context - Few instruments have left such an indelible mark on modern music as the Sequential Prophet-5. You’ve heard it on countless recordings, from Michael Jackson’s Thriller album to Phil Collins, from Radiohead to Vangelis, Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, oh the list goes on and on."

Wheel Within the Wheel EP by Michael William Gilbert

A new release via supporting member Michael William Gilbert via Tall Dog Electronics (tindie)

Hello friends,

I am very happy to share this new project with you: an EP of original electronic/electroacoustic fusion music. There are six tracks, including the single "The Prayer Is The Road"(a)/"The Road Is The Prayer"(b). To be clear - prayer in my context is secular: "a practice focusing on gratitude, mindfulness, and reflection to foster positive change, connection, or resilience without appealing to a supernatural being".

"Wheel Within the Wheel", the title track, is influenced by a visit to Tibetan Buddhist monks while they werein the process of creating a sand painting and then destroying it. "Fractal Loup" is about a state of active and curious meditation, a metaphorical wolf mind interpreted with looping. "The Float" is a dream through the worlds of techno and Berlin school. All music recorded & mixed at Alibi’s Little Corner Studio by MWGilbert and mastered by Sean Magee.

Upcoming: thanks to my partners at ElasticStage, "Wheel Within the Wheel" will soon be available as both an LP and a CD! You can check out my previous album "Electronic Music": https://elasticstage.com/mwgilbert

Hope you enjoy "Wheel Within the Wheel". I'm always pleased and grateful to hear what you think, so please let me know!


Thanks for listening!

LoFi Future - Fragmenter 45 Circuit Bent HDMI Video Glitch Processor

video upload by LoFiFuture

"Available to order here: https://www.lofifuture.shop/product/f...

Track: LoFi Future - Canicular Days
https://lofifuture.bandcamp.com/track...
https://open.spotify.com/album/5oSvIp...

The Fragmenter 45 is a circuit bent Extron 1604 HDMI Scaler. It is a very high quality unit that demanded a very high retail price when originally released. The HDMI signal integrity is pixel perfect and doesn't compress your image when passed through this thing. It processes 1080p 60fps signals without even breaking a sweat!

This one features some effects that are new to myself, targeting a specific part of the clock circuitry that I have not experimented with before on any other device. The 3 push buttons trigger different clock glitch effects that completely take over the signal and make some mesmerizing patterns. They are an extreme and immediate set of effects, perfect for the most intense parts of a live visual performance. A bonus feature of these buttons is that when subtle artefacts build up on the screen after a while even when the effects are all off, a quick press of one of these buttons and they are all cleared! No need for a reset mid performance!

Another effect unique to this device in the horizontal warp effect that makes the clean HDMI signal degrade into something that looks like a weak analog transmission.

8 knobs control the colour digitise effect and another 9 knobs control the "fragment" effect section that splits the image up and repeats it in slices at a 45 degree angle. These two banks of knobs can be linked together with a toggle switch for even more effect possibilities.

This unit also features a VGA input and can scale the signal to a HDMI output, all of the effects work the same when doing so."

Haiku Generative Music Album by Giorgio Sancristoforo for Mac OS Released

Giorgio Sancristoforo's Haiku Generative Music Album is now available for download. You might remember the demos from previous posts here.

It's a fascinating concept. According to Giorgio Sancristoforo:

"Haiku is not an instrument, it’s a music album in the form of software.

Haiku is a work of generative music that builds its own sound from nothing each time you open it, and never plays the same way twice — a record that exists only while it is playing."

Be sure tee the Giorgio Sancristoforo website for his additional creations including dedicated experimental software synthesizers. You can also find posts featuring them via his label below.

大雨-Ooame: Promoting melancholia with digital radicalism and a cub

video upload by Giorgio Sancristoforo

"In an age in which artificial intelligences spew out thousands of pseudo-commercial hits every day, making algorithmic music may seem like an exercise that has lost its meaning. And yet, for some reason, my unconscious has pushed me for decades — from time to time — to create electronic music without using sequencers, synthesizers, samples, or plugins, relying only on mathematics, writing computer programs that give shape to my sensibility without ever tempting me with the absurdity of the prompt.

It would be a lost battle anyway. A commercial AI would never be able to create these strange melodies full of errors and digital stutters, because this is music for outcasts, for nostalgics of a future betrayed by the massification of tools, by cleverness, by pleasant sound design, by cliché, by winning formulas and shortcuts constantly winking at the listener.

I have always believed that real experimental music is music that destabilizes the listener’s very concept of music, and I still believe it.

This is paradoxical music, in which the soul attempts to transmit nostalgia, intimacy, and melancholy through code — and precisely because it is born from code, it is the most anti-AI thing I can imagine.

It is not original music; music ex nihilo does not exist, and it does not pretend to say anything innovative. Yet it tries to communicate that it is still possible to imagine the algorithm outside the algorithm."
