Update: For those not familiar with PPG and Wolfgang Palm, he brought us wavetable synthesis in the late 70s. via Wikipedia: "Wavetable synthesis is used in certain digital music synthesizers to implement a restricted form of real-time additive synthesis. The technique was first developed by Wolfgang Palm of PPG in the late 1970s [1] and published in 1979[2], and has since been used as the primary synthesis method in synthesizers built by PPG and Waldorf Music and as an auxiliary synthesis method by Sequential Circuits, Ensoniq, Korg, Access and Dave Smith Instruments among others." The PPG Webpages is a great resource for everything PPG.

Morton Subotnick & Tony Martin / Floris Vanhoof / Köhn @ BOZAR

"MORTON SUBOTNICK (US) & TONY MARTIN (US)
Floris Vanhoof (BE) / Köhn (BE)
on Monday Oct 17, 2011 (20:00) at BOZAR, Brussels!
Centre for Fine Arts / Terarken room
co-produced by Bozar Cinema and Kraak

Morton Subotnick is one of the grand pioneers of electronic music. In the late sixties he worked along peers as Steve Reich, Terry Riley and Pauline Oliveros. He also helped developing the legendary Buchla synthesizer, with which he composed his first and most important work Silver Apples of the Moon. This work, that was released through the Nonesuch label in 1967, has gathered the reputation of a classic electronic avant-garde piece. Subotnick devoted much of his career to multimedia work and technologic innovations. On Oct 17 he brings his Silver Apples of the Moon again together with visual work of Tony Martin, who stands as the inventor of light show. Martin is a visual artist from the same generation who worked with Oliveros and David Tudor. His work, that in the early days focused mainly on light and interaction, originates in the same period of Subotnick's first pieces. Back in those days he worked closely with the San Francisco Tape Music Centre, where Subotnick was active as well.

Basically everything Floris Vanhoof put his hands on in 2010 turned into a highlight. Not only his debut album 'Slime Time' on Ultra Eczema, or his self released cd-r Nozem / Mutant, but also the many small concerts. In his live shows Vanhoof links new visual ideas to his idiosyncratic musical performances in which homemade synthesizers, modified 16mm projectors, exceptional internet acquisitions and a personal framework are forged into an impressive whole. One of the most versatile and creatively liberated artists in Belgium!

Köhn (born Jürgen De Blonde) is a self-taught musician and composer. He's been an active musician since the age of 12 when he started playing around with a small casio keyboard. From that time onward he's been fascinated by electronic music and creating his own sounds and music. Not having an academic background, De Blonde's interest in music has always been eclectic, allowing influences from a wide range of styles and sounds. Early influences were Jean-Michel Jarre, Jan Hammer, Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk, Vangelis, Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden and mainstream Pop Music. Recently he has been focusing on the kosmische synth pioneers and minimalists such as Terry Riley and Steve Reich, reaching new heights in his discography and live performances.

ARP Odyssey Mk I Model 2800

via this auction

"This is a Black-faced ARP Odyssey Mk I Model 2800, this is not the Mk II. In the last year of production of the Mk I (74'-75'), they switched from the white face to the black face with gold lettering, which they carried over to the Mk II. Under the hood, this is the same as the much sought after white face models. It has the original 4023 filter and rotary pitch bend knob. This filter is gritty and amazing. Nothing sounds like it."
