ESKAMON is the new collaboration project between Amon Tobin (Ninja Tune) & Eskmo (Warp, Planet Mu, Ancestor). “Fine Objects” is the first single by the duo that’s set for release on Eskmo’s own imprint “Ancestor.”

“Fine Objects” is the result of the pair’s unique take on sonic exploration and the manipulation of field recordings. From the onset, the two went out with a recorder, gathering sounds from around the house, yard and studio. Material recorded out of the studio included sounds from a parking garage elevator, a broken harp and the droning tones from a discarded piano. These were combined with more home-centric sounds to form the central theme to the song. With lumbering alien bass and intentionally dry, off-kilter percussion, “Objects” quickly grew into it’s own symbolic representation of taking “odd pieces” and allowing them to grow into something a bit more “refined and ablaze.”

As part of the release ESKAMON released a free WAV sample pack of the sounds created in the song. From these original WAVs, an Ableton Live pack was also created by ill. Gates for the project and given out for free with the release as well. This video is the tutorial ill.Gates shot to help explain the features he made on the Ableton side of the project.

Roland OP-08 CV Interface

via this auction

"The Roland OP-8 interface was designed to control Roland polyphonic synthesizers that were equipped with a DCB (Digital Control Bus) interface such as the Roland Juno and Jupiter via a analog sequencer such as the Roland MC-4 Microcomposer or the System 100 model 104. The OP-8 and synthesizer were connected together usin a DCB cable wich added in this auction. The OP-8 and analog sequencer can be patched together using patchcords via each of their patchbays.

I did used the machine with an Juno 60 and a System 100 sequencer. Works like a charm and fun to patch. + It looks great ;-)
Its a 220v device, but can easily be converted.
Check out the pics, its a museum piece..."
