Lite2Sound in Dallas – Stereo photodiode field recording
video upload by EA78751
"What if the city was secretly composing its own musical soundtrack and only you could hear it? The year is 2023, location is Dallas, and this video was recorded downtown at night. All of the sounds are coming from fluctuations in the intensity of light emitted by the scene. We used a large aperture stereo photodiode amplifier developed by Eric Archer of Rare Waves LLC to capture these field recordings. The audio output from the photodiode amplifier was plugged in to the camcorder’s mic input, and by listening with headphones while recording, the videographer/sound hunter goes to a parallel universe of droning harmonic sounds and electronic frequencies. Lite2Sound photodiode amplifiers are available from rarewaves.net and in the Rare Waves reverb.com store."

This just Blew His Mind.. A Surprising Sampler Experiment: Slicing & Reshaping Acid Bass Lines!
video upload by Ricky Tinez
"I use my Octatrack, Digitakt, and Avalon bassline to create some sampled house music from scratch. Midway through the video, I end up blowing my mind with the the resample feature on Octatrack, and setting it to "random locks". The sample I use is from @tracklib and I have a link to it down below! If you're into making house music in a dawless setup with drum machines and synthesizers, you'll dig this! Follow along with me as I share my creative process and techniques for crafting unique and groovy house beats. Let's make some music together!

Molten Motion Meter 1U Overview
video upload by Molten Music Technology
"The Molten Motion Meter has gone horizontal to give you four channels of modulation visualisation, mixing and attenuation. It's a visualiser of voltage and a seer of signals. It's a VU meter and CV attenuator; it can mix and offset and looks lovely in a rack.
It should be available in June 2023 direct from Befaco and their dealers."
The Seventh Wave Festival of Electronic Music - Number 11 Coming to the UK, October 2023
A brief history of The Seventh Wave Festival of Electronic Music
video upload by The Seventh Wave
Wolfgang Flür (Ex-Kraftwerk) + Banco de Gaia + Nathan Fake + Pye Corner Audio + GLOK [Andy Bell - Oasis/Ride]
The Seventh Wave
Festival of Electronic Music: Number Eleven
A member of Kraftwerk during the group’s golden era, Wolfgang Flür was the band’s electronic percussionist from 1973 to 1987.
The Seventh Wave’s Eleventh Electronic Music Festival starts its journey at the iconic The Water Rats venue in London before setting sail to The Castle & Falcon (one of the most exciting venues in Birmingham) where it will be delivering a plethora of electronic delights over three nights.
In October of 2023 the eleventh ‘The Seventh Wave Festival of Electronic Music’ takes place across four days. For a relatively small festival The Seventh Wave continues to get some of the biggest names in electronic music.
This time around you can feast your eyes (and ears!) on some of the most cutting edge artists in electronic music today.
On Thursday’s and Friday’s events Wolfgang Flür will be the main attraction, with sterling support coming from Peter Duggal (who collaborates with Wolfgang in addition to being an outstanding performer in his own right). Birmingham also has Graham Chapman-Fox who brings his post-utopian electronic music project (Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan) to the second city for the first time.
Born in Frankfurt, Germany, Wolfgang Flür became the third member of Kraftwerk in 1973. He was a member of the group from their international breakthrough with the album Autobahn (1974) and remained as they experimented with proto techno on albums such as Trans-Europe Express (1977) and Computer World (1981). This is a very rare opportunity to see Wolfgang Flür live. Even better still, the Birmingham show has the added bonus of a talk/Q&A with the opportunity for 50 lucky people to be given the chance to listen to tales of Kraftwerk in an intimate bar room setting before the gig starts in earnest.
On Saturday evening, it is in effect a double headlining performance. Banco de Gaia’s debut LP 'Maya' received a Mercury Music Prize nomination and Nathan Fake’s interest in electronic music came from acts like Aphex Twin & Orbital but he takes those influences as a starting point and has moved them on and added to them exponentially.
Last but not least, the Sunday evening is another double headlining show. Pye Corner Audio (a highly respected and regarded British electronic music project by Martin Jenkins) performs after Andy Bell of RIDE and OASIS who is taking his electronic project (GLOK) for a spin this October.
All artists will be accompanied by ‘visuals’ and a special mention goes to Innerstrings (who works with Ulrich Schnauss among other) and he will be providing ‘live visuals’ for GLOK.

Yamaha PSS 795 AWM Vector Synth with Custom 30-Point Patch Matrix and Randomizer Switch

video upload by Canned Sound
"A presentation of this modified vintage keyboard demonstrating the use of the multi-timbral manual vector controller joystick in conjunction with the custom 30-point patch bay. This turns the unit into a generator of noise, bizarre soundscapes, a range of lo-fi ambient, aliasing, glitching and unison pads, corrupted rhythms and percussion."
via Canned Sound's Reverb Shop
"The Yamaha PSS 795 is a rare 1990 49-key digital keyboard which implements Advanced Wave Memory synthesis- the use of real world instrument and voice samples which are looped and/or blended with digitally generated sound. Four of the unit's onboard presets can be assigned to the vector controller- a joystick which allows the user to morph between each of these sounds. With the addition of the custom built 30-point patch bay, this adds up to one of the most remarkable, enigmatic and useful modified instruments Canned Sound has to offer. This feature unlocks an endless array of other-worldly soundscapes, bizarre loops, weird sample hybrids, drones, warped digital distortion, garbled and staccato FM sounds, ethereal effects, powerful unison patches, strange percussion hits and grinding bass tones. The unit also features a switch which triggers completely random streams of noise, sequences, effects and tones- another great option for sampling.
When utilising the patch matrix, each configuration of the five included stackable patch cables produces an often multitimbral range of sounds across the keyboard. The percussion pads and onboard rhythms are also affected. The capacity for the generation of unusual pads, noise and percussive hits is immense; this modified PSS 795 is a source of distinctly different sounds which any alternatively minded electronic producer will find inspiring. Demo to follow.
Specs:
61 mini keys.
ROM: 100 sounds, 50 rhythms.
8 percussion pads (46 percussion sounds + voiced numbers 1 - 4 are assignable to each).
4 patch vector controller (a user created movement sequence is writable in the 8 track sequencer).
Pitch bend wheel.
MIDI: In, Out, Thru.
Twin 3 watt speakers + headphone/AUX out.
Dimensions: 776 mm x 302 mm x 141 mm.
Weight: 4.5 kg."
