"Vintage Kawai (Teisco) S-100P analogue monosynth in excellent condition and perfect working order. Comes with it's original chrome music stand. Sounds superb. Very expressive synth, brilliant aftertouch which can be routed to various parameters. It's basic sounds are preset but there's plently scope for manipulation. These are very similar to the ARP pro soloist and were basically built under license from ARP by Kawai/Teisco. These do sound fabulous. Built in flanger and lush spring reverb too."

(Moog x2; Matrixbrute x2) - "Everyone is Dead"


Published on Jun 10, 2018 Kris Lennox

"(Try loud with headphones, otherwise the bass won't come through) Presently I'm finishing off an electronic EP titled 'Music for Murders & Massacres'.

Interesting EP. It would be a brave record label to approach a work on this theme. Let's see if any do. I'm sure someone out there will like the concept :))

Eno had 'Music for Airports'. I think the above theme (i.e. Music for Murders) is certainly fitting for our time/generation(s).

Also: when growing up, playing 'nice' works became very sickening. "Not another f'ng nocturne" could sum up certain times during my formative years.

So - yes, very dark. Chaos :))

RE the track: This is a demo to illustrate the synth parts. There are a few extra layers in the final cut (and a few other slight variations).

On the synth front: the matrixbrute sounds utterly demonic here ;) Great stuff. I'd love to play this piece live with the other parts (pre-recorded) played over the sound system. To hear the MB through a PA system playing notes this low is stunning (even Cannibal Corpse would shudder!). The sound is quite literally stomach-churning.

RE the Moog parts: they aren't random, but rather, are specifically tuned (microtonally).

Link to a higher res audio version here (still a demo, but the quality is better):"

Moog DFAM: Using as an Arpeggiator


Published on Jun 8, 2018 Kris Lennox

Don't miss part 2 below, for a more ambient take.

"Making a percussion synth a not-percussion synth.

Just for the hell of it. :)) It wasn't designed for this, but it can be interesting to push a synth to do what it's not meant/designed to do.

As can be seen, no patching. External reverb, nothing else.

Some pretty cool things can be done with this wee machine (I mean before any patching; utilising patching, it can get insane).

Contrary to popular belief, the DFAM doesn't have to be constant 4/4.
I'll maybe illustrate another time.

Moog DFAM as Arpeggiator (part 2)

Published on Jun 12, 2018 Kris Lennox

"Another look at the DFAM as an arpeggiator/sequencer.

The previous vid demonstrated the unit in its brutality as a percussion machine; this shows something quite different.

The track is one of my own, titled 'Through Pastel-Coloured Clouds'. I'm sure the imagery is obvious, given the 'noise as wind' effect.

The work is actually 4-part (DFAM, Matrixbrute x2, plus a viola. Yes, there's an actual acoustic instrument in there!!), but the DFAM arpeggiation sequence runs throughout.

Other instruments don't enter until c.1:55 - everything until then is DFAM-only (MB enters with bassline and upper 'shimmer sequencing' @ c.1:55. I filmed all parts so over the next few days I'll upload a performance vid of this work).

To the DFAM part: pre-tuned, of course. The output signal was split, with one part transposed up an octave. Reverb & chorus added to upper part (signal 1 was sent into a Lexicon PCM96 rackmount).

Signal 2 sent to reverb only (Eventide).

Lots of effects added to the viola solo (flange, chorus etc). Again, I'll upload the viola part on the vid showing all parts of this work.

The upper shimmer sequencing sounds more akin to FM synthesis than standard subtractive. Very happy with the sound. Great to see that the MB can be taken to these levels. Nothing added here aside from 'verb (and the MB onboard delay).

Bass sound is also fantastic. :)

The Moog part on its own sounds great. :)

The DFAM really is a versatile wee unit. Very happy with how this recording turned out. The sequence line wasn't originally intended for DFAM - but works beautifully on it.

PS I had to order some new short patch cables as my others have went walkabout. The ones I'm using I got from an ebay site called 'Scapesound'. Great cables. Recommended.

Enjoy
Best
Kris"
