4k Redwood Forrest with rhythmic electronic music


video upload by Saul Stokes - Frequensea

"Expansion was composed in 2018, before a Star's End Gathering performance I did in Philadelphia. The music was intended as a complimentary bonus album for the audience. It's remained obscure, likely also due to the cover, which was drawn by my daughter and is very atypical of electronic music. Expansion has some really chill electronic beats that are unique due to many of them being processed through an old tape recorder. During this time of my life, I was doing a lot of non-multitrack recordings, where I would live mix to compact flash cards in one go. I'm going to be honest and say that the original album had lots of squeaky synth solo work that was a bit too improvised for me. For this Redwood forest video, I performed extensive splicing to remove some of the worst offenders. I think this cut is much cooler with the result being more chill.

The video was created in the Redwood Forest of Reinhardt, Oakland, California. It's an absolutely stunning forest just a few minutes from the city. I had to jump off the main trail onto a small hiking path and then hide the camera. As soon as I left, dancing insects came out in force. If you listen closely, you'll hear some fairies talk in a few portions of the album. Watch the sun slowly move across the plantlife."

"Super cool and funky hardware MIDI sequencer, designed to inspire with a unique user interface that invites experimentation.

Used by artists such as Richie Hawtin/Plastikman, The Orb, Goldie, Howie B, Peter Gabriel, and others.

This is the Mark 2 version, which I bought new from Latronic in 1999. Somehow I wound up with 2 copies of the manual, so you'll have a spare!

Includes original carrying case, 2 manuals, power supply with US power cord (but it is an international power supply, 100V-240V), and the Mark 2 Notron in super-minty condition. Only lightly used in my home studio.

Just powered it up and it works great."

Its funky analog filters make anything you sample sound thick and hifi depending on sample rate you set.

"FRESHLY SERVICED! keybed cleaned, all pots cleaned, new battery, Tauntek MIDI added.

This is hands down my favorite mono synth of all time, such a unique instrument! Designed by Chris Hughes who also designed the WASP and several products for Novation among other things, IMO OSCar was his greatest product. I am only selling as I have two otherwise I'd never let it go! Hands down the best analog dual multi-mode filter in existence! There's additive synthesis in the way of building waveforms by adding harmonics, there's presets, there's an amazing sequencer and arppegiater, there's duophonic functionality. You can get all kinds of crazy vowel/vocal sounds."

Vintage 80’s Tama Techstar Analog Drum Synthesizer Synth Kit Pads & Original Boxes

"How is this even possible? The sounds of 80’s new wave, techno, dance and electronic in drum kit form all in their original boxes. 😱

Vintage 1980’s Tama Techstar analog drum synthesizer system.

Complete TS-500 drum kit/pads, TS-305 6 voice analog synthesizer, and I do have TDA-60 amplifier available but not included in this auction.

A rare opportunity to own a distinct analog sound that’s totally functional and complete. In most other cases, these would be highly used and abused.

Per the previous owner, these sat in the boxes for the past couple decades. In excellent condition and don’t look to have much heavy play time if any at all.

Check out the video but keep in mind I’m not a drummer! But you can be, with headphones too! 😎

These are vintage and like all vintage gear expect some wear and scuffs associated with age."
