via K-Teck

Add (or subtract) 2 ordinary, variable length pitch sequencers

Combine that with a euclidean sequencer

Then pass it through a note quantiser

What do you get?

Bijou

and that's not all...

Bijou expands to reveal a neat modulation section with 4 sources and 8 destinations

Bijou can pump out a simple wicked bassline or a long, never repeating generative treatise

All Bijou's power is in your hands

Bijou Step Sequencer is available as a Max for Live device for use only with M4L within Ableton Live

AudioCubes Featured at Electro-Music Festival 2012 in New York

"The Electro-music festival 2012 has been confirmed, with acts from several electronic musicians from all over the US and Europe, such as Mark Mosher, Lux Seeker, Shivasongster, and many others.

The festival organized by electro-music.com takes place in Huguenot, New York at the Greenkill Retreat Center. Last year over 60 artists performed live at the festival, and this year's edition is expected to be even greater. The event will span 3 days in September (7-9), and alongside the musical performances, workshops, jam sessions, laptop battles will take place.

The Electro-Music festival is also called “the Woodstock of electronic music” by the Philadelphia Inquirer. It is an annual event festival organized by electro-music.com, a “cooperative community where artists and enthusiasts participate and benefit together” as they describe on electro-music.com.

One of the highlights of this event will be the live performances with Percussa AudioCubes. Electronic musicians Mark Mosher, Jeremy dePrisco aka Shivasongster, and John Morley aka Lux Seeker, will bring their AudioCubes to the festival to perform live with the cubes. In addition, Jeremy will demonstrate the AudioCubes during a workshop he's organizing about Reason 6.
