Kebu - To the unknown woman (Korg M-500 & PE-2000 demo)

YouTube via kebunator | June 27, 2010 | 3:22

"Here is a song I composed to demonstrate a few sounds from the Korg Micro-Preset (M-500) and Polyphonic Ensemble Orchestra (PE-2000) analog synthesizers, both from the 1970's.

After the song was composed, I noticed that it bears some similarities to Vangelis' song "To the unknown man" (most of the chord changes and the key - C sharp). While "To the unknown man" grows into a quite bombastic tune from its humble beginnings, this tune stays rigid, but still airy and modest until the end, kind of complementing each other. Hence the song title.

Each part was recorded separately to a reel-to-reel recorder (Tascam 38) and mixed using an analog mixer. An analog drum machine (Roland TR-808) was used for providing the rhythm track. A tape delay (Roland RE-201) was the only effect used in addition to a phaser (EHX small stone) for the noise. Mild EQ and limiting was used in the final digital mastering stage."

Marietta Cashman and the Buchla 100

by Hannah M.G. Shapero
"From 1967 through 1970 my father, composer Harold Shapero, was director of the Brandeis University electronic music studio. The studio was equipped with a Buchla 100 modular synthesizer, which was at the time the state of the art. Though I was not a Brandeis student, but still in high school, my father allowed and encouraged me to work with the Buchla in the studio. I started working there when I was 14 and continued until I was 17. The portrait you see of me with the Buchla was taken (by my father) in 1970."

Update via Pyracantha in the comments: "I'm thrilled to find my 1960s rediscovery featured on this Blog! I have returned to electronic music after 40 years and am trying to work with modern softsynths and field recordings. I am working on a noise album which I hope to release on "Just Not Normal" when it's done.

The Brandeis Buchla 100 is still working and it is in a studio at the BEAMS ("Brandeis Electro-Acoustic Music Studio") where it is used by students under the direction of Eric Chasalow. I recently saw it on a visit in late April but didn't have time to play it.

Thanks for the posting!"

1Song1Week1Year - Week 26 - Cube

YouTube via DJDJSMusic | June 26, 2010 | 3:46

"Week 26 in my 1Song1Week1Year project to write one new song each week for the year 2010.
I don't don't know if this song is half way, because it is the end of the second quarter, or if last week was half way as it was week 25 of 50. But either way it feels like I am just starting out. And I am still discovering new stuff to sample and make music with. I know I still have a lot to learn."

1976 GODWIN GUITORGAN VINTAGE SYNTH GUITAR

"vintage 1976 Godwin Guitar Organ made by Sisme. Considered the absolute premier “Guitorgan,” this 13-knob/19-switch version is the more deluxe of the two manufactured in Italy for Godwin in the mid-1970’s. While those fortunate enough to have heard a working Godwin guitorgan respect it as the most authentic organ-emulating guitar (sounding nearly identical to a Hammond B3), it also offers beautiful sounds completely unique to such an incredibly advanced instrument. Essentially an electronic organ re-arranged and manipulated to fit within a guitar, normal Univox/Musiconics Guitorgan just don't compare. This beyond rare guitar organ is virtually inaccessible, and is rarely offered for sale anywhere. Other examples have sold for well over $6,000, so take advantage of this reasonable Buy it Now auction, and add this to your collection.

This particular example is in very excellent all original condition. It is in perfect working condition, and includes: the original expression pedal, an original instrument cable, all of the original paperwork (complete schematics and operations manual), and the original oversized case. There are no other known examples which include the original schematic, which is a valuable essential to understanding and maintaining the Godwin if necessary. Remarkably, the Godwin guitorgan is capable of functioning as an organ or traditional guitar independent of one another. It features a 5 pin connector output for the control pedal, and a normal ¼” output for the typical guitar output. With Italian-inspired cosmetic appointments, the detail to sonic quality was equally matched by the tuxedo black and silver sparkle faux sound holes. The control panel was designed to be both attractive and intuitive. Typical of Italian artistry, the design of this instrument incorporated both form and function.

The guitar is all original, and features: original Schaller tuning machines, the original “G” tailpiece, all original knobs, all original switches with corresponding colored tips, and all other miscellaneous chrome hardware. The guitar plays amazingly well. The neck profile is an open soft C-shape neck profile, with very comfortable action. The neck is perfectly straight, and all of the segmented frets are in excellent condition. With better playability than any guitar we currently have in stock, it is very easy to play super fast organ-inspired melodies. There are small chips near the bottom of the fingerboard, which appear to have been repaired."
