Standalone Challenge: Fuse of 808 Mafia

Published on Feb 6, 2017 AkaiProVideo

"In this episode of the Standalone Challenge, we link up with Fuse from 808 Mafia (Big Sean, Rick Ross, Gucci Mane) and asked him to make a track from scratch using only the MPC Live. Here we watch Fuse create a dark, minimal Trap beat, perfectly suited for the dungeon-like location. No computers were used in the making of this track.

This video is best heard with headphones or monitors because of the low subs.

Now it's your turn. Take the #standalonechallenge and share your creations. We'll repost the best tracks on our socials."

Improvisation on a "Concerto Generator" (1977)

Uploaded on Oct 9, 2010 MuStudio

"Laurie Spiegel Playing the Bell Labs Digital Synthesizer, better known as the Alles Machine or Alice, was an experimental additive synthesizer designed by Harold G. Alles and Douglas Bayer at Bell Labs in 1977-78.

This composition was commissioned by Bell Labs and the Motion Picture Academy for the 50th anniversary of talking pictures. Working with the Alles synthesizer, with its extensive array of input and output channels for control, was a real pleasure after years of GROOVE's extreme restrictions. The interactive software I wrote for this composition recycles the player's keyboard input into an ongoing accompaniment. However, writing the software from a remote DEC PDP-11 computer (see also the PDP-11 FAQ and PDP Music Survey) in the new "C" computer language still undergoing frequent change, within a still-experimental UNIX operating system, without the control inputs or sonic output, under a tight deadline, while the Alles synthesizer hardware was still under construction, turned out to be quite an adventure.

It can orchestrate and perfome musicale scores as fast as a composer at its controls can think them up; create previously unheard musical sounds; and raise or lower the pitch of an instrument or human voice in real time-instantly-so that a man speaking into a microphone can be made sound like Donald Duck or Ezio Pinza. The machine divides sound into its frequencies and amplitudes, processing it un up to 200 million operations per sesond.

Artist: BLACK SHAPE

Title: Doom Room

Remixer: Franz Alice Stern

Shot and edited by: Piero Fragola

Label: Tiptop Audio Records

Genre: Techno

Mastering by Tommy Bianchi @ White Sound Mastering Studio

«Just like Black Shape's track “Doom Room”, remixed by Franz Alice Stern, “Doom Room”'s video has been remixed too; starting from the hand-drawn character of the original animation videoclip, here the little monster has become a sculpture, again realized by the artist Matteo Giampaglia. That cute bi-dimensional baby-monster is again protagonist, but now it's physical and corporeal, lit up by the fire in a mysterious night shooting, among flowers and sparks.

The fire twinkles both inside the monster and in the environment that surrounds him, like an element that gives life to the monster's rough materiality, just like the pervasive rhythm of the track which permeates the sounds and the melodies.»

«Come la traccia “Doom Room” di Black Shape, remixata da Franz Alice Stern, anche il video di “Doom Room” è stato remixato; partendo dal personaggio disegnato a mano del videpclip animato originale, qui il piccolo mostro è diventato una scultura, realizzata ancora dall'artista Matteo Giampaglia. Quel grazioso mostriciattolo bidimensionale è di nuovo protagonista ma adesso è fisico e corporeo, acceso dal fuoco in un misterioso footage notturno, tra fiori e scintille.

Il fuoco luccica sia dentro il mostro che nell'ambiente che lo circonda, come un elemento che dà vita alla materialità grezza del mostrino, proprio come il ritmo pervasivo della traccia che ne permea suoni e melodie.»
