Organic Substances - vintage synths session

Published on Mar 8, 2017 Michal Patulski

"Sequencer: Atari ST. Recorded on 1/4" tape."

03 03 17 Buchla Beat

Published on Mar 8, 2017 batchas

"Quick fun session today evening to clear a bit my mind.
Simple sequence with 243v set to 64 steps and another row of 8 steps for bass drum.
Direct out. No effect added, except compression in Logic.

No time to develop the patch, but the bass sound made with the 258v is something that inspires me a lot to spend maybe some more time on this kind of simple patch."

These used to be available back in 2011. You can see some featured in the archives here. See the Mr.AcidMachine label some of their other products. The last post from them, prior to this one, was back in 2013.

From the listing: "This thing is rare! This is the only one for sale that I know of.Oscillating drum synth that can be triggered by the built-in pad, CV input, or audio input. It has an onboard looper and optical theremin. It is way too much fun.

It can be played by hand or set into 'loop' mode for drones, but also has CV and gate inputs for external control via analogue sequencers etc.

Runs on standard 9v power (same as most guitar pedals). I don't have an adapter for it as I always use my power brick. Or you could use a standard 9v battery"

Moog Honors International Women's Day with List of Female Electronic Music Pioneers

Update: I thought this post was missing someone, so I took the liberty of adding her myself. The wonderful Emmy Parker of Moog Music. I hope Moog and Emmy don't mind. :) Emmy is Moog Music's Brand Director, and Co-Creative Director of Moogfest, meaning one of THE driving forces behind both, and hence current electronic music. That, and she is pretty awesome.

Moog Music Wishes Dick Hyman a Happy Birthday w/ Tribute Page

Check out that 50U system!!! You can find the full write-up at Moog Music, which includes a number of videos featuring Dick Hyman and his music.

"Since beginning his career in the 1950s, piano legend Dick Hyman has released over 100 albums and played on hundreds of sessions. The prolific jazz pianist is credited on over 1,000 recordings--from radio to television, musical theater to the symphonic stage. He even lent his musical talents to a dozen of Woody Allen’s films.

A stylistic archivist and sonic chameleon, Hyman was an adept of the keyboard instruments, mastering the piano, organ, and ondioline before moving on to the newly invented Moog synthesizer in 1967. Seeking “to humanize electronic music as well as to humorize it," Dick Hyman released a series of accessible electronic records that removed the synthesizer from its familar home of academic and avante-garde circles and placed it at the center of pop recordings..."
