Traffica Voca Electronica - Featuring Peter Zinovieff of EMS

YouTube via JeffreyPlaide.
"This track is a very unusual composition in that there are very few musical elements in the assemblage. Small samples of sound are spliced together to form various loops. Ethereal sinewaves connect various noises to the vocoded spoken word passages. The spoken word segment is actually the voice of Peter Zinovieff, whom with his EMS synthesizer company in Britain in the early 1970s produced the classic VCS3 range and Synthi 100 voltage controlled synthesizers. He is actually speaking about the advantages of making sequenced electronic music rather than by cutting up magnetic tape of recorded sounds. Today, it is much easier for the experimental musician to create music with computer software and editing techniques than it was in the late 1960s when Peter was experimenting. This sound collage represents a kind of special tribute to Peter Zinovieff and EMS, albeit in a very unusual arrangement of un-related samples and sinewave tones, culminating to the vocoded spoken word conclusion."

"The beautiful thing about this project is that it can be built using simple parts from Radio Shack (yes, I know it's hard to believe these days, but Radio Shack can actually provide all the parts you need, for this project at least). And what's better than being able to pick up the parts for the project at your local mall? The price is so low that you can build it for a mere ten bucks, including a fancy case."

"Ableton Live's new vocoder offers a little more than ordinary vocoding. It also works with an internal noise generator and a pitch tracking oscillator with 4 different waveforms. And you can use the audio input as modulation source and carrier at the same time."
