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!"
