A Collection of Fairlight History via Peter Vogel's YouTube Channel

The following is a collection of Fairlight videos from Peter Vogel's YouTube channel. The first two are on the original Fairlight. The third is a playlist of the Fairlight CMI30A reissue, and the final is a playlist of the Peter Vogel CMI App which featured a CMI30A splash screen. Note Fairlight and Peter Vogel Instruments are two separate companies. Via Wikipedia:

"After rebirthing Fairlight Instruments in August 2009[7] and releasing the CMI-30A, the 30th anniversary model of the Fairlight CMI,[8] and Fairlight iOS apps for the Apple iPhone and iPad,[9] Vogel renamed Fairlight Peter Vogel Instruments in July 2012. When announcing the name change, the company foreshadowed a new range of synthesisers was being developed.[10]"

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Suzanne Ciani - Closed Circuit

Published on Jun 28, 2016 RVNG Intl.

"Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Suzanne Ciani - Closed Circuit

Order from RVNG: http://smarturl.it/frkwys13-rvng
Order from Bandcamp: http://smarturl.it/frkwys13-bcamp

From FRKWYS Vol. 13: Sunergy. Out everywhere September 16, 2016. Visuals from Sunergy, the forthcoming documentary by Sean Hellfritsch. http://seanhellfritsch.com/

℗ and © 2016 RVNG Intl. / www.igetrvng.com"

via residentadvisor.net:

"Both artists, who are close friends, share a deep passion for the Buchla modular synth. Ciani's interest in the instrument stretches back decades—it's a newer obsession for Smith, who used it prominently on her recent album, EARS.

The Buchla instrument features prominently on Sunergy, with Smith performing on the Buchla 200e and Ciani using a Buchla Music Easel. The album was recorded in Ciani's home in Bolinas, California, which overlooks the Pacific Coast. According to RVNG, the record is "shaped by slow, pulsing forms and sinuous, melodic sequences that conjure both an oceanic world and the unlimited sound made possible by modular processing." An accompanying documentary on the album by Sean Hellfritsch will also come out when Sunergy sees release on September 16th."

via this auction

"We are graced by the presence of this superior instrument, a fully functioning and lovely Roland Juno 106. The chips have all be refurbished by the eminent Synth Spa, so there are many years ahead for this glassy and diaphanous polysynth. We have had it additionally serviced on our end: replaced the battery, had the power supply recapped, and reloaded the factory presets. All sliders, switches and knobs are smooth and noise free, we're very pleased with this Juno."
