Sasazuka is an interesting district not far away from Shinjuku. It is a quarter in transit with many changes going on; there are still many old houses around, aswell as their sometimes also very old tenants. Young families are increasingly filling the area, many different eating places and coffee shops are now run by young enthusiastic people and you frequently see foreigners around. According to some people we talked to, the government is obviouly interested in buying as much ground as they can, either for greater living areas or for business improved areas.
This video was recorded on a old trail, that conneted Edo through a small river/ stream with Tamagawa river. Occasionally, you can see the water, which is running all along the path, coming up to the surface under the urban structures, that have over a century been built up on top. At these small creeks, which you can find all over Tokyo, there is a lot of "wild life" going on - birds, beetles, that have dissapeared in other areas, wild bees and frogs etc. In the urban enviroment of today, they are precious outbursts of nature in an otherwise totally controlled city life. Photos in the end taken with Rolleiflex 2.8C, Planar, more on my Instagram."

True Spandau Ballet Prophet 5 & Nord Stage 3 Intro and 1st Verse Keyboard Cover/Play along

video upload by narfsounds

"The Sequential Prophet-5 is a fantastic synth for creating those iconic sounds of the 80s. In this video, I am showcasing its capabilities with a cover of Spandau Ballet's "True." I also used the Nord Stage 3 to for the verses. I hope you enjoy this performance. If you did, please consider subscribing to my channel for future sound packs and music content."

Motor Synth - Kick Drum

video upload by aftxr (Dave Clay)

"Motor Synth Kick patch I put together. First off, you absolutely get no mechanical noise in the audio output of the Motor Synth. The thing absolutely makes a mechanical noise, but you can't hear it in the audio... So I put a piezo on it so I could capture the racket this glorious thing makes.

Gamechanger probably spent hours trying to make sure those mechanical motors aren't audible, and I just eradicated all that effort and slapped a piezo on the side. Sorry. I really like the noise it makes. But, let's be honest, I just like _noise_."

First Drive of Motor Synth


"It took a year and some, but it's finally here and whirring away. With this sound I was just seeing how well those motors reacted to their speed being modulated by the LFO or quickly turning the scale knob. Both voices are set to the magnetic pickup waveform - the pickups reading the electromagnetic field of those motors. They have a nice biting sound with low end.

It's run through a generous amount of Desmodus Versio reverb. Kick by Basimilus Alter and Plasma Coil. Snare by Kraken and Crucible (Crucible doing the metallic ping).

I love the Motor Synth, not necessarily because it's a great synth, but because it's a piece of art. It's a ridiculous concept, at high speeds it's physically loud, it's just a strange thing. I want to reward people who take on weird things and push boundaries, and Gamechanger Audio really does well at that.

Surprisingly, I hear no noise out of the speakers - it's clean. Which one would think is a good thing, but I'm actually kinda missing the whirring mechanical sound from the recording - so much that I've ordered a piezo contact mic to slap on the side to see if I can actually pick up some of that noise intentionally."

HAINBACH / TODD BARTON Split Vinyl LP

video upload by Todd Barton

"Ultraviolet Light is proud to announce a split vinyl LP featuring three new tracks of exploratory music apiece by innovative electronic musicians Todd Barton and Hainbach.

Four decades into making music in conversation with modern classical, jazz, poetry, ancient music, new age, and the avant-garde, Todd Barton continues to craft sounds that know no boundaries. Berlin-based Hainbach’s side conjures a pulsing and immersive electronic landscape very much in conversation with Barton’s spacious and unfettered compositions. Taken as a whole, the album relocates us into a cerebral yet viscerally affecting cinema of orchestrated chaos and near-future noise.

This release continues Ultraviolet Light’s unique relationship with both artists. Todd Barton curated the artists featured on the label’s sold-old Buchla Now cassette; Barton and Hainbach’s first pairing was on a 2019 Ultraviolet Light split cassette.

The Hainbach and Todd Barton split vinyl LP will be limited to 300 copies.

Video created by Pam Anderson whose work can be explored here: instagram.com/windcruel."
