Ensoniq Fizmo Demo featuring Vox Humana

YouTube Uploaded by stuthomson on Feb 16, 2012

Comes in at :49.

"Some of my patches on the Ensoniq Fizmo Digital Transwave Synthesizer. Another flop in the Synthesizer market, causing the death of Ensoniq. There is debate on exactly how many were made. Some sites say 500 keyboards and 200 rack versions, other say 2000 keyboards and about 500 rack versions. Mine is serial number 10936, so . . 2000? The machine has a reputation for making only metallic churning noises, therefore . . useless.
I've used it in several recordings. BTW you can kill the churn."

Barry Schrader & Death of the Red Planet

CEC eContact! has a post up on a 1973 article from American Cinematographer on the film Death of the Red Planet. The film was by Dale Allan Pelton and featured music from Barry Schrader on the Buchla 200. From Dale in the page pictured to the left:

"At last I heard Celebration, a work by Barry Schrader, a young teacher of electronic music at Cal-Arts. I immediately knew he was the one to score the film. He had a unique ability to generate startling high-energy music. Barry's final quadraphonic mix was produced in the space of two months after many all-night sessions with the Buchla 200 electronic music synthesizer. Using complex timbres and as many as twenty layered tracks, Barry achieved incredible sound densities (sound events per unit time). The Buchla sound is quite different from that of the Moog synthesizer which we have become famiiliar with in pop music. The Buchla does not use a keyboard. The various sound events and dialogues amongst its modules are initiated internally, and externally controlled by touch sensitive tabs."

You can find other films by Dale Allan Pelton on IMDB here and Barry Schrader here. You can find Barry Schrader's official website here.

Update: you can find an excerpt of the music on Barry Schrader's site here. You'll also find some additional notes and pics.
