Buchla Modular Sounds 18 - Buchla Phases

Published on Nov 28, 2013 pjoris2·110 videos

"Another loose version of Piano Phases of Steve Reich. It is really surprising how hard it is to replicate this piece accurately using sequencers. In the end I gave up - these are just two sequencers running at slightly different tempo's.

In the real piece the two players should lock every time for approx 12 bars in the same tempo every time they have shifted a note. After which one of the two playes swicthes again to the slight slower tempo."

All Connected 2nd Event to Feature Kassel Jaeger and the Coupigny Modular

via Ancienne Belgique where you'll find full details.

"Kassel Jaeger is a Swiss-French composer about whom very little is known. He is a member of the Groupes de Recherches Musicales (GRM) in Paris and has already released albums on Editions Mego, Senufo Editions and Unfathomless.

In Huis 23, Kassel Jaeger will present an evening dedicated to INA-GRM, with particular attention for the Coupigny modular synth. This unique, legendary synthesizer, there is only one in existence, was built in 1966 by Francis Coupigny. It was originally a prototype of the synth that was integrated into the GRM Studio in the late sixties. Almost every composer of any significance in musique concrète or electro-acoustic music has used the instrument in their compositions, Parmegiani, Bayle, Berio, Schaeffer,…

The synth itself can unfortunately no longer leave the GRM studios - as it is too unique, too fragile and too valuable - but Kassel Jaeger has found a solution.

The first part consists of a composition built up out of Coupigny synth sounds that will be presented in quadrophny. Then there will be a piece whereby a diffusion is screened upon a projection of the front panel of the synth.

Afterwards there will be an informal chat and Q&A with Kassel Jaeger about the famous synth, the GRM, his work,…

Shelf Inside a Micromoog

This one in via Mike Metz of Thesis Audio: "We were recently restoring a vintage Micromoog at Thesis Audio Service for a customer and found something interesting. The bottom wooden panel of the Moog was made from a piece of 'shelf board' that you can find at any home improvement store. It had been painted flat black on the outside and cut to form the Micromoog bottom panel, and yes, it is the original piece. Just an interesting inside look at a piece of synthesizer history."
