Roland MC-101, JU-06A, and Octatrack MK2 performance at Patchwerks

Published on Apr 18, 2020 Patchwerks Seattle

"In this video Matthew Piecora (aka EZBOT) performs on the Roland MC-101, the Roland JU-06A, and the Elektron Octatrack. The focus of the performance was to showcase the MC-101's potential in a live scenario, playing with other instruments.

From Roland:
"Produce and perform music anywhere, anytime—without clutter or complications. The MC-101 GROOVEBOX has all the high-quality sounds, sequencing, and effects of the professional MC-707, in a compact four-track version that’s go-everywhere portable. Get started with an inspiring collection of ready-to-go sounds and patterns, or easily create your own. Craft a unique style by importing custom sounds and loops that sync to tempo. And you can perform with the MC-101, triggering clips and shaping your sounds with direct, hands-on control."

From Roland:
"The JU-06A is the best of the JUNO-60 and JUNO-106 in one synth. It has the continuous high-pass filter of the 106, the envelope-controllable pulse-width-modulation of the 60, and the unique filter behavior of both, instantly switchable from the front panel. The sound is indistinguishable from its vintage counterparts, even while tweaking controls or using extreme settings. And no vintage JUNO would be complete without the swirling sound of its legendary chorus, faithfully recreated, right down to the lovable (and thankfully adjustable) noise."

From Elektron:
"During its seven year life span, the original Octatrack quickly became one of the most widely used live performance samplers. An industry standard if there ever was one. It undoubtedly changed the way gear setups look like and gave artists the power to perform live in the truest sense of the word. Now the Octatrack MKII is here. Sharper, better, more robust. It proudly carries the legacy of its predecessor, confirming the position as the creative artist’s instrument of choice."

"I wanted to let you know that a new single and video of my latest album has come out, it's a synth inspired track featuring the Jupiter 8 for the main sound, and modular synth (Cwejman) for a lot of the sounddesign and percussive sounds. The video is made by fractal artist Julius Horsthuis and features Australian singer Kate Miller-Heidke."

Dusty Rhodes and The River Band - All One! Video feat. Harry Perry

Published on May 6, 2010 dustyrhodes

Prophet-5 solo at 3:06. I remember seeing Harry Perry skate up and down Venice beach way back in the early 90s late 80s. As for this video, the guitarist with a beard was on an episode of LA Ink getting a tattoo dedicated to cheese. Apparently he was in a bad accident, had to get 13 inches of his small intestines removed, and found out he was lactose intolerant. He loved cheese so he got a memorial tattoo of it. I looked up the band, found found this video, and here's a post. :)

From the Self titled album (June 2010)

Nijuman no Borei

Published on Apr 18, 2020 junklight

"Been meaning to upload this for ages and then I noticed my namesake had uploaded his version.....

Rescore of the very powerful film by Jean-Gabriel Périot called Nijuman no borei (200,000 phantoms) - the rescore was done for the Dark Outside and rather brilliantly the various versions were all projected onto a screen next to a river with headsets to listen to the soundtracks

you can see my namesakes take on it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiAVi..."

Casio SK-100 sampling keyboard demo - "Over Again"

Published on Apr 17, 2020 Alfonse

"Casio SK-100 sampling keyboard (1987)
The SK-100 is a larger version of the famous SK-1 and SK-5 with more keys and features, including the ability to store two custom drum sequences, which can include samples. The sampler function itself has a great 8-bit / 10.113kHz lo-fi sound; grainy and interesting.

This track features vocal samples from my 2011 release 'Time Over' featuring Ayika. https://youtu.be/HRPFzpa3mSA

All sounds you hear in the track were made using the Casio SK-100 sampler or its factory sounds and were recorded to a DAW, where compression, EQ, reverb, and delay were added as required. Individual drum hits were sampled from the SK-100 and sequenced in the DAW. I gave the clap some more depth by triggering multiple samples, slightly differently pitch- and time-shifted, through a short reverb.
