On a side note, the Clavia Nord Modular editor came to mind. Curious how that would be with a large Multi-Touch screen.

Morton Subotnick And Joan La Barbara On Q2 Music's 'Spaces'

"April 17, 2013The pioneering electronic composer responsible for Silver Apples of the Moon turned 80 years old this week. Q2 Music visited with Subotnick and his wife, vocalist Joan La Barbara, in the couple's Greenwich Village apartment for this installment of their web series Spaces."

via NPR:

"by HANNIS BROWN

It's difficult to overstate Morton Subotnick and Joan La Barbara's contributions to contemporary music.

Subotnick's pioneering work in electronic music includes such game-changing pieces as Silver Apples of the Moon and A Sky of Cloudless Sulphur. The composer, who turned 80 this past Sunday, also helped to develop the California Institute of the Arts's groundbreaking curriculum. He also co-founded the highly influential San Francisco Tape Music Center, where Terry Riley, Pauline Oliveros and Steve Reich would cut their teeth writing tape music.

Joan La Barbara is one of today's most iconic vocalists — John Cage and Morton Feldman both wrote music for her. Her own music, which often stretches the possibility of the human voice, has been honored with a slew of awards including a 2004 Guggenheim fellowship in music composition.

For the second installment of Q2 Spaces, we visited the couple's Greenwich Village apartment, where they've resided for the past 17 years. The walls are lined with the artwork of friends and collaborators, and the kitchen cupboard doubles as La Barbara's vocal booth. A shelf in Subotnick's studio houses a piece of the first Buchla analog synthesizer — the instrument used to create Silver Apples. The bustling sounds of the city streets sift through their kitchen window.

Impro with a Ditto Looper and a MiniMoog by Hyperdust

Published on Apr 17, 2013 hyperdust7·34 videos

"Just bought myself a TC Electronics Ditto Looper Pedal. Playing a little game of messing up the settings on a MiniMoog Old School - no presets - and trying to get a kick snare, bass, chords and melody together in a short track. Mostly worked! I forgot to press play on my audio recorder so you just get the camera audio with the too loud stamping on the looper. Maybe with some practice I'mm be more subtle!"

on The MATRIXYSNTH Lounge. If you like what you hear vote for him to perform at an event here. I usually stay out of these, but Musik4Machine has been a supporter of the site and I haven't posted one of his performances in a while. This one is a good one as it shows you how he develops a track over time. And of course, plenty of synth spotting. Full list below. Active links on YouTube.
