The March Acid Pattern Compilation

via Acidboxblues, via Dylan Davis on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge

"The March 2014 Acid Pattern Group compilation is out now for download – its free but feel free to pay what you like.

The March pattern was from my acid of cassette Bradford Kraft. [posted here]

15 tracks give his 22 step pattern a good run for its money

For the synth nerds amongst you there are details of gear used for each track, where the producer has supplied it. So have at it and get into it.

Have a listen and download it below or grab it from http://acidpattern.bandcamp.com/album/march-acid-pattern-2014

Out of this month’s 15 renditions I’m really enjoying E-Wah’s rendition, its one of my favourites out of the March lot.

Let me know which rendition floated your boat."

Theatre - 1980's Prog Rock Featuring John L Rice

Theatre - Locust Uploaded on Mar 30, 2008 Theatre1982·25 videos

"Recorded live at Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA in 1983..."

Those who have been following MATRIXSYNTH for some time should be familiar with John L Rice from his numerous modular videos. John is well respected in the modular synth community and has presented for Moon Modular at NAMM. Like many musicians his skills cross other instruments. In this case he was the drummer for a relatively unknown band Theatre in the late 70s and early 80s.

According to John: "Locust was one of our most popular pieces and was always instrumental only. This version is a little slower than we usually played it. Back in the late 70’s and the first half of the 80’s I was in a progressive rock band called THEATRE. At best we only performed live a couple times a year . . for free (no one wanted to hear original prog rock in the heydays of disco, punk and new wave ) We rehearsed one to four times a week for many years though and had a few personnel changes over time. I played drums and percussion but on a couple songs I played keyboards . . although crappily ;-) Let me see . . . piano on Sfear (there is video proof! ;-), Synergy on another and Minimoog D or Moog Source on another . . .forgetting song titles in my old age ;-)

Here is the THEATRE channel, many videos are just rehearsal boom-box recordings with one too many still shots, some are good quality studio recordings and a few were shot at the Evergreen University video studio. Be prepared for poor quality recordings and many rough edges! ;-)"

Octatrack,Tetra,Dark Energy Improv

Published on Apr 4, 2014 Dylan Nau·21 videos

"Creating a track from scratch. loaded up the OT with samples and just pick random samples to create the beats. Tetra and Dark Energy are also being sequenced on the fly. I have the CC's on the Octatrack tied to the filter and resonance on the Tetra and also the filter on the Dark Energy so I can P-lock the filter knob using just the Octatrack. Lotsa fun.

Recorded straight to the Zoom H4 into Logic with compression and a bit of EQ added."
