"Cory Flanigan explains with his integrated drum kit why "electronic press kits" are insulting to everyone's intelligence. So are "one-sheets", but that's a song for the future.

Look for his new album, Derecho: Songs About Musicians, out soon!"

Electronic percussion with dynamic mapping - demo

YouTube Uploaded by otoskope on Mar 14, 2011

"Percussionist Olof Olsson performs demoing an electronic percussion instrument designed and programmed by Palle Dahlstedt.

In this instrument, the musician navigates a huge space of possible sounds, through playing and listening. All pads play a single polyphonic sound engine, but each pad generates its own set of parameters. The size of the cluster of parameter sets can be varied, and the sounds of different pads can be blended, i.e., a pad has an effect also on the sound of the other pads. At any time, the whole cluster of sounds can be moved in any direction. When the musician presses a pedal switch, the cluster is moved towards the current sound, and then this subspace can be explored - so the sounds are changed through playing, and the timberal variation is virtually limitless.

This instrument is a percussion adaption of the vector mapping technique used in the instruments Palle Dahlstedt designed for duo pantoMorf.

The percussion pad is a DrumKAT, and the instrument is implemented in a Nord Modular G2.

This is part of the research project Creative Performance, directed by Palle Dahlstedt at the Department of Applied IT and the Academy of Music and Drama, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Funded by the Swedish Research Council."

YouTube via suitandtieguy | July 20, 2010

"Cory Flanigan, Minister of Percussion for STG Soundlabs, plays one of the pieces he's composed for the solo album he's currently recording.

No Abletrons, tape machines, or MIDI sequencers (outside of what's in the RADIAS itself) were harmed in the performance of this music. Reverb is supplied by a Crown PZM in the next room, and no plugins were used to mix the music except for the stock MW Limiter in Digital Performer. this is straight-up rawdog drums and synth."

If you haven't checked out Komoni, do it. You can find all posts featuring Komon here, which includes video. He plays the modular with the drumKat drum pads and it is impressive. For the labels below I'm guessing the black modules on the right are MFB. If you know otherwise, let me know.

High Roller, Crystal Method : OrbVroomer drumKat live

"Only two little synth notes not triggered live here. The L.I.S.A trigger plays those. Everything else is live playing.I start with a mono drone synth note,then fill in the rest of the notes in that driving pattern.That pattern is then layered under the drum line.All it needs now is for the real CM's sounds on top to conquer my sonic lameness."

Mission: Impossible orb vroomer drumKat

"This super cool song was composed by Lalo Schifrin in 1966 for the TV series.I like to perform a bit fast.Intro notes triggered by the W.E.E.L are the only notes not played live. After that,the solo riff is re-triggered by a linked pad. The rest is all live playing."

"Was practicing some of my live set yesterday and came across this sequence that I particularly liked. Stuck a camera with some Velcro to the studio ceiling and hit record.

Kamoni

First of all if you haven't seen Kamoni's videos yet, click here and scroll. You will find some of the most amazing live drumming with an Elektron Machinedrum, Monomachine and drumKat. It forces you to take a different perspective on the technique of playing a synth. Keyboards have dominated technique along with the modular interface of course. Kamoni explores the world of synths via drums. Really amazing stuff.

Kamoni wrote in to let us know that he has a new website at Kamoni.net which he plans to update with new and exciting stuff. Do check it out. If you have an RSS/Bog Reader like Bloglines, you can sub to the site and updates will come to you.
