Moog Music Launches Season Two Of Moog Sound Lab And A Partnership With SPIN.com

"November 21, 2011: Moog Music launches Season Two of Moog Sound Lab, a unique performance series giving artists the opportunity to experiment with various forms of synthesis and soundscaping. Season Two marks a partnership with music tastemaker, SPIN.com. SPIN will exclusively present one performance from each session.

Moog Sound Lab Season Two’s debut episode features a distinctive performance by Twin Shadow, who applies synthesis to organically re-invent his breakthrough songs “Castles In The Snow” and “Slow”. The on-line series is creatively engineered and filmed at Moog Music's factory in Asheville, North Carolina by Moog’s in-house multi-media production team.

Little Dragon, The Antlers, Ra Ra Riot, and Megafaun join Twin Shadow for the second season of Moog Sound Lab. Each band re-imagined two of their songs while experimenting in Moog's gear rich, black box studio space within its working factory. Combining artists' untethered creativity with access to the full catalog of Moog's handcrafted electronic musical instruments, Moog Sound Lab offers viewers a rare view of performances usually reserved for private rehearsals and experimentation that take place regularly at the Moog factory.

Viewers may watch one performance exclusively on SPIN.com and the other at moogsoundlab.com. The episodes will debut on the first and third Mondays of each month. Little Dragon's session will premier December 5th.

Season One of Moog Sound Lab featured Tegan and Sara, Phantogram, OK GO, Junip, Dorit Chrysler, and The Dandy Warhols, which can be viewed at moogsoundlab.com.

With Love, From Cecil [A Bleep Labs Green Thingamagoop Love Story]

"I was in love once. I think love is a bit of heaven. When I was in love, I thought about that girl so much I felt like I was going to die and it was beautiful, and she loved me, too, or at least she said she did, and we were not about ourselves, we were about each other, and that is what I mean when I say being in love is a bit of heaven. When I was in love I hardly thought of myself; I thought of her and how beautiful she looked and whether or not she was cold or how I could make her laugh. It was wonderful because I forgot my problems. I owned her problems instead, and her problems seemed romantic and beautiful. When I was in love there was somebody in the world who was more important than me, and that, given all that happened at the fall of man, is a miracle, like something God forgot to curse. " - Donald Miller


Dear Bluebot,

I will wait for you.

Love,
Cecil

Roland D-50: Fantasia (patch demo)

YouTube Uploaded by TheSynthFreq on Nov 14, 2011

"HI :) This D-50 patch demo features a famous preset "Fantasia". I have edited this patch so that the pcm is actually tuned to the other partials and I edited the TVA to have an increased release time.
Jupiter-8 arp is added and Juno-1 bass patch is added to create an 80s theme.
Other than the modified TVA and the pcm tuning, the patch is the original preset.

:) TSF"

Roland D-50: Living Calliope (Patch demo)

YouTube Uploaded by TheSynthFreq on Nov 9, 2011

"HI :) Here is short example of the famous patch "Living Calliope" on the Roland D-50. This demo is a mixture of Italio Disco and just random 80s cheesyness.
My friend DavRBailey had sent this patch recently so my D-50 now has a factory preset once again. :) D-50 and I thank you. :)
When I acquired my D-50, it had no factory presets at all.
Keep in mind this is just a demo of the patch, not an actual song. :)"

The dark modular with color knob caps is a Formant modular. Not sure what the white modular is based on.

BTW, I'm finally creating a new eurorack label for posts that feature a number of eurorack modules but do not necessarily focus on one or two brands. There was no description for this video on YouTube, if anyone has more info, feel free to comment or send me email. The email link is on the bottom right of the site.
