Sherman Filterbank 2 / Schippmann Ebbe und Flut robot farts

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"Our friend Mike Dobler set up this feedback loop using the Sherman Filterbank 2, Schippmann ebbe und flut, and Moog MF-102 ring modulator. The feedback is created by the ebbe und flut being patched into the Sherman, Sherman out1 into Moogerfooger ring modulator (not shown), and ring modulator back into the ebbe und flut.

Paul Tzanetopoulos' Analoglive! - Video

"Bringing together some of today’s leading composers, performers and designers for a real-time presentation of works centered around the revival of analog synthesis, Analoglive! was a concert held at the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theatre, REDCAT in Walt Disney Concert Hall, on November 16, 2007. "

Update via Peter Grenader in the comments:
"One thing i must mention - the audio and the visual on this video are grossly out of sync. The three chords which begin this piece were sampled and I was facing the keyboard when i fired them off, which would have put my head facing Alessandro, who is perched on a platform to the left of the screen. In this vid I'm moving all over the place as they are sounding, back from/to Roland A33 to the modular (which is what I'm doing when my head's facing towards the right of the image). Also, the audio is coming off Paul's video recorder mono mic which was on stage left. You're not hearing half the sound from my synth which was coming out of the rear loudspeakers

There's Hollywod for ya."

E-70 o) Fool's Gold: the Alaska Overture [Ode to Electone]

YouTube via FlametopFred, via the Forum.
"by vamping on some UK and Supertramp, came up with this new composition that fuses the two ideas behind "Alaska" and "Fool's Overture"

Finding that the Yamaha E-70 home organ is a very inspirational (and fun) music making machine. Everyone should have one. Some assembly required."
