Sequential In The Spotlight Interview with ROB COTTINGHAM

You can find the interview on Sequential's website here.

"Once described by Geoff Barton of Classic Rock Magazine as “Peterborough’s answer to Vangelis,” Rob Cottingham started his musical career in high school, later forming the rock band Cinema. In the early 90’s, he gigged with an R&B band and formed the cover group, Ghost. Itching to write his own material, Rob produced his first album “Behind The Orchard Tree”(BTOT) released in 2002. From there he founded the group Touchstone, who went on to release one EP, four albums, a double live album and a live DVD. The group hit the UK rock album charts at number 34 in 2011 and number 26 in 2013 after being signed for two albums. The band toured UK, Europe and USA.

In 2016, Rob formed Cairo, keeping the same sensibilities in song craft, but with heavier guitars and more electronica in the sound. Cairo’s debut album “Say” was released to rave reviews, including a recommendation from Steve Hackett of Genesis. The band won Classic Rock Society’s Best Newcomer Award a few months later. Rob released a solo follow up to his earlier album BTOT with “Back Behind the Orchard Tree” in April 2019, and soon after, Cairo released a live album “Alive In Holland” in January 2020. Their next studio album is planned for late 2020.

We chatted with Rob on how he uses the Prophet-6 in his music.

Novation // Patricia Wolf - Performance

Published on Feb 24, 2020 NovationTV

"In this video, filmed at Holocene, Portland, electronic musician, synthesist and sound designer Patricia Wolf performs with SL MkIII at the centre of her setup.

Patricia’s music-making setup comprises several machines: a Novation Peak polysynth; a Boomstar 3003 semi-modular synth; a Make Noise 0-Coast modular synth; an Elektron Analog Rytm drum machine, and OTO BIM and BAM effects units. All her sound-generating devices are connected to a Novation 49 SL MkIII controller by a mixture of MIDI and CV connections. By using templates in the SL MkIII to control multiple parameters across all her devices, Patricia is able to focus her attention on one main control surface — the Novation SL MkIII — while maximising the technological potential of all her synths.

Novation // Patricia Wolf - Profile

Published on Feb 28, 2020 NovationTV

"In this video, Patricia Wolf discusses how she takes a two-stage approach to sound design. “In one way, I focus on the technical aspects of it, especially when there’s new features on a synthesizer that I’m not so familiar with. So I’ll play around with that and really think about what it’s doing.” Then, once she’s familiar with her machines and their respective capabilities, she’ll free herself from thinking on a purely technical point of view and consider her machines as an ecosystem, playing in harmony. 'It’s nice to let go of that technicality and just think of it as a living, electric energy that you can morph and change and start feeling for its creative potential.'"

Vintage Korg MS-20 & MS-50 Synthesizer Jam

Published on Feb 24, 2020 Perfect Circuit

"In this video, we pair a vintage Korg MS-20 and MS-50 with two SQ-1 sequencers to create sequenced bass lines and rhythms. Fully capable synthesizers in their own right, the MS-20 and MS-50 combine to form an even more powerful modular synthesizer capable of everything from generative soundscapes to brutal, heavy-hitting bass tones.

The MS-20 is a semi-modular keyboard synth originally released in 1978. At the time of its introduction, it was one of the most affordable synthesizers altogether—and with its snarling dual filter, external signal processor, and open-ended patch bay, it was destined to be a cult classic. The MS-50 was intended to act as an expander for the MS-20 or other modular systems. Unlike the MS-20, the MS-50 does not feature a normalled internal signal path, instead acting more like a true modular synthesizer. The MS-50 can certainly act as an instrument all on its own (with its own oscillator, filter, envelopes, VCAs, LFOs, and tons of CV utilities)...but when using the two instruments in combination, completely new possibilities emerge.
