In this video your host Augustus Green of The Galaxy Electric does a sound and response comparison between these two flavors of 292 modules. The Quad Function Generators 280 and 281 are used to appropriately show off what these different animals can do. Let your ears be the judge as you decide which vibe you prefer.

The Galaxy Electric - Destination Omega - Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday - Official Video


The Galaxy Electric

New from supporting member, The Galaxy Electric.

"Destination Omega the final track on the new album “Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday”
Pre-Sales Open Oct 8 -https://thegalaxyelectricshop.com/twb...

Video Directed by Sean Hancock

Imagine you are relaxing in your space age lounge on Mars. You've taken off your shoes and are letting your feet rub against the shag carpet in your conversation pit. Your cosmic neighbor walks in and surprises you with….the perfect soundtrack for your evening of planet gazing!

Tune in, turn on....space out!

Destination Omega written by Jacqueline Caruso and Augustus Green

Lyrics:

You never know where you will end up
Just as quickly a blue sky can turn to grey
Just as quickly a smile can go the other way

You never know where you will end up
You never know where you will end up
You never know where you will end up
Or when...

Curious and curiouser

Strange as it may seem
You're just the only one
The rest of us can see

You're the only one
The rest of us can see...

Only time will tell
Only time will tell
Only time will tell"

Cosmic Drone - Session 23 - Modular and Vocals Drone Music Performance


The Galaxy Electric

Chat with Molten Music below.

"Thanks for listening! Please back our kickstarter for our new album release on double vinyl, cassette and reel to reel here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

Relax and tune into our live weekly improvised Drone Sessions. This twenty first session involves a drone featuring Buchla style complex and modulation oscillators drifting in and out of tune. There are also other sound elements such as filtered pink noise and bell-like tones. As the oscillator frequencies drift apart by way of manual control, beating ensues. Listening to droning oscillations can serve as mindfulness sounds as there is no sudden changes in sound. Just smooth drifts in pitch and the resulting beat frequencies and other ambient complimentary fragments of sound. Drones can also serve as an ambient track to have on while doing tasks that require intense focus. Drones are also great for a Sci-fi film soundtrack. The slow yet progressive nature of a drone performance can help one focus on tasks without distraction. The fact that we are manipulating these oscillators live and in collaboration helps the drone meander ever so smoothly in an evolving fashion as we are always reacting to one another's subtle movements. These movements are improvised so there is an unrehearsed and reactive ebb and flow to the tones generated. Engage in the practice deep listening with us.

The electronic music instruments used in this performance of modular drone music are the Buchla Music Easel and a cosmic vocal drone setup using two Boss RE-20 Roland Space Echo pedals.

The Galaxy Electric - Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday - Album Trailer - Cosmic Tape Music



New album coming from supporting members, The Galaxy Electric [featured here on MATRIXSYNTH].

Pre-Order The Album HERE: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

Enjoy this trailer featuring clips of all the songs from our upcoming second full length album "Tomorrow Was Better Yesterday" - these clips are all mixed seamlessly together and set to space age era imagery and Super 8 film footage crafted by Italian video artist, Michelle Pan.

About the Album:

Hop on “The Galaxy Electric” Express for a space age voyage in search of the origins of the Big Bang! It all starts at the 1964 World’s Fair….and ends on the other side of a wormhole...Will our cosmic voyagers find what they seek….or end up just as lost as the original explorers they came to rescue?

This is the first album we have ever recorded that was fully and completely improvised. And we recorded to 1/4" Analog Tape without any digital recording magic (overdubs, edits, tuning etc). We spent a year practicing this new improvisational style before we turned on the tape machine. But once we did, we recorded every day for a month. And when we listened back - we realized we had created a space age fantasy album - like the soundtrack to a time traveling space voyage. From there, we spent time mixing and mastering the raw tape recordings. It was a tedious and worthwhile effort.

We use Buchla style synthesizers, Reel to Reel and Cassette tape machines, a Mellotron, Korg Delta DL50 and various analog effects like Spring Reverb, Tape Delay, and Ring Modulation sprinkled with ethereal vocals to take our listeners on a cosmic journey.

Tracklist:

1. STAGE 1 (EXPOSURE)
2. TOMORROW WAS BETTER YESTERDAY
3. STAGE 2 (RE-ENTRY)
4. TRIPPINGLY WE GO
5. BETTER THAN WORDS
6. S.O.S.
7. LAST NIGHT ON PLANET EARTH
8. TIME SLIPPING
9. TRANSMISSION FINI
10. REALITY IN THEORY
11. GRAVITATIONAL COLLAPSE
12. LIFE ON PLANET ZORB
13. HOW HIGH
14. ENDLESS VOYAGE
15. POWER TRIP
16. SURFING ON SOFT RAYS
17. DESTINATION OMEGA
18. CRYSTALLINE GLOW (BONUS TRACK - Digital Only)
19. MIRRORS OF INFINITY (BONUS TRACK - Digital Only)"

Patch and Tell: Buchla 291 Fun - Modular Synthesizer Demonstration - 258 - Frequency Modulation


The Galaxy Electric

"Thanks for tuning in! Come on a musical voyage with us where we'll send you a new song every day, a cosmic story, and a chance to earn space treasure: https://thegalaxyelectric.lpages.co/5...

This is a basic demonstration of the 291 vintage buchla filter clone by Roman Filippov. I am using it in conjunction with the 258 dual oscillator clone by Dunnington Audio, UK as well as a Buchla USA 281h/292h combo. The filters are being used in parallel. The Q setting is at top of its range. I have them calibrated for a modest max Q setting. I have a randomly generated pattern emitting from the 218e using a latched arpeggio.

The 291 Dual Voltage Controlled Filter is made up of two bandpass filters with adjustable Q, Center Frequency, and Bandwidth. The Center Frequency and Bandwidth are also voltage controllable.
