"Pennies from Heaven, a collaboration between Control and Bánh Mì Verlag, is a series focused on contemporary experimental culture with an emphasis on the liminal and the underrepresented.
Sound artist and musician Ben Kudler’s (b. 1967) story began in the London Nightclub scene. This early period was labeled by critics and detractors as evocative of cryogenic freezing and ruptured stasis. Notable during this period is Kudler volunteering to be placed into cryotasis.
This evening, the artist will present a new work: Piece For Channa Horwitz (Sonakinatography I Movement #III) In Four Parts.
Kudler has released music on Unifactor, Salon and Bahn Mi Verlag, to name a few.
Please note that seating is limited. After 7pm, reserved tickets may be distributed to standbys. Performance will promptly start at 7:15; once the performance begins no entry will be permitted. Do not be late. Suggested donation is on a sliding scale from $7 - $15."
Stumbled on this little sketch while I was taking a break from scoring (finishing up 'Apollo 11' which will premiere on opening night of the 2019 Sundance Film Festival on January 24, and then hit theaters and TV in the spring/summer of 2019) and I was playing around with my Q963 trigger busses. Seems like the really fun ideas usually come when you're not looking for them too hard.
Gear used: Moog Synthesizer IIIc reissue, Soundgas modified Binson Echorec 2 (with varispeed and wet-only out), Synthesizers.com Q960 sequencers, trigger bus, signal selector, and foot control for filter cutoff, BAE 1073MPF mic preamps, Radial JDI direct boxes and ReAmp feeding the Binson (via RME Fireface 800)
2. Moog IIIc and valve varispeed Binson Echorec 2 T7E
This is me improvising on my 2017 Moog Synthesizer IIIc reissue, fed into a Soundgas Ltd. valve Binson Echorec 2 T7E (with varispeed and wet-only mods). The kick is a mixture of two sources: a kick I synthesized on the Moog using sine and triangle waves, and a kick I recorded from my 1967 Ace Tone Rhythm Ace. The eighth note bass line is coming from my Minimoog Model D reissue. For the main part (that you see me doing live), the dry signal is panned hard right, and the Binson's wet-only output (thanks Soundgas!) is panned hard left. I captured them with BAE 1073 MPF preamps and Radial JDI Jensen-equipped DIs. Also, the Moog-style sequencers (along with most of the other non-Moog modules I'm using) are by Synthesizers.com.
3. Matt Morton on Moog IIIc Modular Synth
This is a quick sketch on my 2017 Moog IIIc Modular Synthesizer Reissue (serial number 19 of 25 made). I'm also using modules by Synthesizers.com (including two Q960 sequencers) and STG Soundlabs (Post-Lawsuit Filter on the non-sequenced bass voice).
"The highly-acclaimed film (currently rated 100% on Rotten Tomatoes) features a score by composer Matt Morton, who chose to score it using an expanded palette of orchestra + electronics – but only using instruments that would have been available in 1969.
Morton says that every instrument and effect used in the score existed at the time of the mission in 1969 including the Moog modular Synthesizer IIIc, the Binson Echorec 2 tube echo, the Mellotron sample playback keyboard and the instruments of the orchestra."
"Improvising on the Skulpt & NI Maverick piano with a generative patch I built. Main sound sources are Make Noise DPO and Noise Engineering Cursus Iteritas - Teletype & branches doing the note selection
Video a bit ropey than usual - I'm trying to get the hang of Adobe Premiere"
"IK Multimedia UNO Analog Bass Monster!
Synthesizer Demo by Rik Marston
**Watch in HD!!** **TURN IT UP!!**
Very nice, very sweet! Mean as a junk yard dog!
I love it's sound, a mix of Moog, ARP and Roland mono synths!
Need any Synthesizer Samples for your next track and want to save a TON of money? Here are only a few of my HQ synthesizer sample collections in .WAV format able to load into ANY device that reads .WAV files!
"Matrixbrute as both accomp and lead on the same patch. VCO 3 is assigned to the arpeggiation sequence, which I wrote in 13/16 time. VCO's 1&2 are assigned to the upper (i.e lead) voice. Pitch wheel is set to an octave; you'll notice it only alters the lead part.
This improv is intentionally a small nod to Vai/Zappa - hence the odd use of the pitch wheel i.e as of how Vai commonly uses the whammy bar/whammy pedal on the guitar.
FX added = TC 2290 rack for delay, and PCM 96 rack for reverb. The distant sound/effect at the end is the fading in of the MxB's onboard reverb (to full wet).
"The ARP AXXE is the younger sibling to the better known Odyssey, to which it features a very similar layout. The main difference being that it only has one VCO so there are no duophonic capabilities or ring modulator. That doesn't take away from the fact that its still a really great sounding monosynth with that beloved ARP bite!
This synth is in great shape for its age with no cosmetic wear out of the ordinary for a 70s synthesizer!"
