MAN PARRISH stood at
the foundation of
Electro, Hiphop and
Freestyle<br>
in the early 1980s.
As influential as
the likes of
Kraftwerk, Arthur <br>
Baker, Afrika
Bambaata and YMO he
is truly an electro
pioneer.<br>
<br>
Growing up in 1970s
New York he schooled
himself in the
arcane <br>
techniques of
synthesis and
created a list of
bona-fide electro
and<br>
hiphop classics. <br>
<br>
Filling the airways
of our youth with
sounds the world had
never<br>
heard before,
he would inspire
many of us to pursue
a 'career' as<br>
an electronic
musician. <br>
<br>
SHADOW WOLF hooked
up with MAN PARRISH
in Florida via
cyberspace and<br>
asked him some
questions on how it
all started.<br>
<br>

How did you start
producing
electronic music
in the 1970s
exactly?<br>
<br>
</font> <font
color="#22bb99">Marijuana.
And I'm not
joking...LOL Back
in those days we
used to smoke a <br>
lot of weed. I
can't anymore, it
makes me paranoid
but back then, I
Barely <br>
breathed oxygen.
My face was
attached to a
water bong 24
hours 7 days a
week.<br>
<br>
In those days you
would smoke pot
and listen to what
they called "head
music"<br>
which was not
quite like ambient
music but more on
the electronic
side.<br>
Some of it was
rhythmic, but it
was based on
trippy sounds that
would enhance<br>
your high.<br>
<br>
Due to the lack of
"head music"
albums (remember
in those days
everything<br>
was on vinyl) I
knew a little
about synthesizers
and wondered if
there was<br>
a way I could make
"trippy" music
myself and listen
to it after I
smoked weed.<br>
<br>
My neighbors would
totally freak out
from the sounds
coming from my <br>
apartment door.
They probably
thought I was
landing an alien
spaceship in <br>
there, these were
not sounds that
you would normally
hear from the rock
& <br>
roll bands on a
stereo. <br>
<br>
So basically I
have marijuana to
blame for my
interest in
electronic music!<br>
<br>
I also went on a
very deep mission
to find other
experimental and
electronic<br>
musicians. In New
York they had the
Donnell Music
Library and the
library at<br>
Lincoln Center
which had audio
recordings. I
would search for
electronic and<br>
obscure records
and listen to a
lot of
experimental
synthesizer music
which <br>
basically had
drones and blips
and bleeps.<br>
<br>
I figured if I was
getting into
electronic music,
I should
definitely know<br>
the roots of all
this. I would like
to say at this
point anybody who
is <br>
interested in
doing electronic
music REALLY
should study the
background of<br>
this music going
back into the
1950s when it
first started.
That way they <br>
would have a very
good solid
foundation for
creating music
today.<br>
I eventually
wounded up taking
a course at a
continuing
education school<br>
learning the basic
physics of
synthesis...Manipulating
sine, sawtooth,<br>
square-waves,
envelope
generators, ring
modulators and
things the analog
<br>
synthesizer is
made up. That was
truly an important
foundation to
create<br>
an understanding
of the whole audio
spectrum.<br>
<br>
The first
synthesizer I
learned this on
was the ARP 2500,
people should <br>
google it just to
see how it looks,
it was about 4
feet high and 7
feet<br>
long...LOL People
today try to just
grab a sample and
like the way it<br>
sounds. I come
from an era where
we had to break
that sound down
into <br>
waveforms and
understand the
physics and the
science behind
that.<br>
We could recreate
sounds with
accuracy and have
total manipulation
on <br>
shaping it into
what we heard in
our heads.<br>
<font
color="#99ff99"><br>
<font
color="#99ff33">In
that time it
must have been
quite an
obscure
endeavour
making
electronic<br>
music, like
super
futuristic,
almost
magical!?</font></font>
<br>
<br>
I was always into
electronic and
obscure music as
well as modern
rock'n'roll<br>
and pop music. But
when I heard
groups like
Kraftwerk, I
suddenly realized<br>
the two came
together and you
could take
synthesis and make
real songs...<br>
music molded into
an electronic
band. <br>
<br>
I immediately knew
this was the
future of music
and in that sense,
<br>
discovering all
this indeed made
it very 'magical'.
</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#99ff33">In
an earlier
interview you once
talked about your
very first
synthesizer<br>
you bought from
RadioShack, was it
one of those sound
science kits?</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#22bb99">RadioShack
back in the 70s
had all these
homemade 'science
kits'. One of <br>
them was a mini
'synthesizer' kit.
It was very basic
and rudimentary
but I<br>
actually had to
sit there and
solder wires to
transistors and
potentiometers<br>
and stuff like
that. Today that
would have been a
really cool geeky
thing<br>
to do but back
then real
synthesizers were
like 5 to 10
thousand
dollars...<br>
way out of my
price range as a
17 year old kid.
Putting together
the kit<br>
for 20$ and
smoking pot was a
lot easier to do!<br>
<font
color="#99ff33"><br>
It must have
been difficult
to get your
hands on
electronic music
machines<br>
...expensive,
cutting edge and
puzzling...how
did you learn to
use these<br>
machines?<br>
<font
color="#22bb99"><br>
I learned to
use these
machines by
trail and
error. I had
some basic <br>
synthesizer
school but I
am a true
believer in
Chaos Theory
and experimen-<br>
tation. If
someone says
don't push the
knob past 10,
I dial it up
to 15 to<br>
see what it
sounds like!
And I file
that away as
an interesting
effect<br>
that I may
need to use
later.<br>
<br>
Synthesizers
were extremely
expensive.
I'll tell you
a funny story,
this<br>
will show you
the funny
"low" that I
went to go
through to get
a synthesizer.<br>
The ARP 2600
came out and
was about
2000$ in those
days. It was
an incredible<br>
amount of
money. I told
my parents I
wanted one. Of
course they
said <br>
absolutely no
way! I pulled
my mother over
to the side
and said:<br>
"If you don't
give me money
for the
synthesizer, I
will become a
male<br>
prostitute and
sell drugs
until I make
enough money
to buy this".<br>
She looked
stunned and
thought for a
few
minutes...then
turned to me
and<br>
said "Let me
speak to your
father...".<br>
The next day
we went
shopping for
that
synthesizer
LOL...my poor
mom!</font><br>
</font></font> <br>
<font
color="#99ff33">Do
you have some
advice for any
future artists?<br>
<br>
<font
color="#22bb99">My
advice to
anybody doing
synthesis is
please, please,
please get
online <br>
and take several
evenings to
study as much as
you can about
the beginnings <br>
of electronic
music and how it
has developed.
People are lucky
today because<br>
you have the
internet. In my
day we didn't. I
had to
physically go to
the<br>
library and read
books. Today its
all online on
Youtube and you
can find<br>
almost anything
with Google. If
you want to be a
really great
synthesizer<br>
girl or guy,
record producer
or artist you
MUST study your
craft and know <br>
your foundation
and what
shoulders you
are standing on
to create
something<br>
new. <br>
<br>
Don't be afraid
to beg borrow
and steal from
others because
all great <br>
artists did that
too. Learn,
learn, learn and
never stop
learning. I am<br>
constantly
working and
moving forward
even though you
may not see many
<br>
records that I
put out. I have
over 100
releases on my
own label on
iTunes<br>
and all digital
outlets like
Spotify and
those sort of
things that
people<br>
can listen to
for free or
purchase. I am
currently
working with
Steve<br>
Bronski from
Bronski Beat
doing some
remixes of new
material.<br>
I've worked with
everybody from
Boy George, to
Micheal Jackson,
to<br>
Gloria Gaynoer
from the disco
days, Crystal
Waters and even
managed the<br>
Village People
on the road for
six years. I was
learning,
learning,
learning<br>
and still do.
Never stop or
should I say
"DON'T STOP!"<br>
<br>
The day you stop
learning is the
day you are dead
as an artist. I
am not<br>
a musician...I
am an artist and
that changes my
whole
perspective on
how <br>
I approach music
and sound!</font>

<font
color="#ff77ff">(Lyrics
of 'Alleys of
your Mind' by
Cybotron 1981)</font><br>
<font
color="#ffaaff">Alleys
of your Mind
is the very
first Cybotron
song and one
of the most<br>
important/influential
dance music
tracks of all
time.<br>
<br>
It is one of
the songs that
became a main
ingredient in
inspiring
Techno.<br>
It came out in
1981 and was a
hit in
Detroit. It
played on the
Electrifying <br>
Mojo show
frequently.
People now
would call
this Electro
but back then
it<br>
was Techno
before Juan
Atkins
actually gave
a name to the
genre. <br>
<br>
Most people
know Rick
Davis and Juan
Atkins (who
became MODEL
500 later)<br>
were in
CYBOTRON but
there was also
another artist
in the band at
the time. <br>
He was named
John โJon 5โ
Housley and
was a Vietnam
war vet. He
was and <br>
still is very
eclectic. <br>
<br>
There was a
local article
that told more
of his side of
the story this
past<br>
year (2016)
but it is not
available
online. *Bonus
points if you
can find it* <br>
<br>
Vietnam quite
possibly
influenced the
lyrics as Mr.
Housley has a
very <br>
beautiful mind
when it comes
to processing
events and
translating it
into poetry.<br>
<br>
Later Cybotron
went on to
create similar
powerful
sounds on the
Enter LP which
<br>
was the first
Techno LP. It
had Clear
which is one
of the most
sampled songs
of<br>
all time, R9,
and other
really funky
but dark
tracks that
set the stage
for<br>
the future of
Techno
artists. <br>
<br>
As Anthony
โShakeโ Shakir
says:<br>
"Juan started
it, Derrick
(May) sold it,
Kevin
(Saunderson)
had a hit,<br>
and Jeff
(Mills)
reinvigorated
it.โ<br>
<br>
It all started
with Alleys of
Your Mind</font><br>

Some
interesting
botanical
curiosities
for you to
check out...<br>
<br>
<font
color="#ffffff">
CODARIOCALYX
MOTORIUS aka
Desmodyum
Gyrans aka
Telegraph
Plant</font><font
color="#30ff85"><br>
This is a
plant that
moves to
sunlight and,
more
impressively,to<br>
sound. It
starts to move
when it is
exposed to
high pitched
sounds!<br>
How cool is it
to have these
in your studio
or next to
your hifi
stereo<br>
system. It
particularly
likes pinkish
noisey flute
sounds from
lets say,<br>
a Korg M20.
The real
freaky thing
is that you
can sort of
train it.<br>
The more you
expose it to
the right
sounds from a
young age, the
more it <br>
will 'dance'.
Its an easy to
grow plant,
indoors it
just needs
some warmth <br>
and light.
Above 22
degrees
celcius and
some sun. When
they start to
grow<br>
it will take a
few weeks
before they
are big enough
to 'dance', a
few<br>
inches at
least. They
can grow up to
a few feet!<br>
You can order
seeds easily
online. They
like to be in
a bunch
because<br>
even more
bizzarly, they
learn and
communicate
with each
other and will
<br>
make more
impressive
'dancing
moves' when
together (for
real!). How
this<br>
is exactly
done is not
known but its
best to grow a
couple of
them.<br>
It also has
some DMT in it
but don't eat
it because
that stuff
doesn't <br>
work like
that.</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#ffffff">
</font><font
color="#30ff85"><font
color="#ffffff">SILYBUM MARIANUM aka Milk Thistle</font><br>
A herb that
grows pretty
much
everywhere.
You can eat it
as a sort of <br>
Spinach like
vegetable,
raw, cooked or
roasted, in
salads etc. <br>
Little
research or
information is
known about
its
psychoactive
effects,<br>
but it
certainly has
some. Make
some tea of
it, though it
doesn't really
<br>
taste that
nice. When you
drink this it
will feel like
you have giant
ball <br>
of air in your
head, dozy
floating
around, maybe
a bit extra
giggly...<br>
spaced out.
Not really
pleasant in a
recreational
way, but also
not really <br>
horrible. Good
to fall asleep
to, apparently
its healthy
for your
liver. <br>
So if you are
an alcoholic
better check
it out. Mix
with Verbena,
Mint or <br>
something for
extra effect.<br>
<br>
<font
color="#ffffff">ENCYCLOPEDIA
OF
PSYCHOACTIVE
PLANTS</font><br>
A most
excellent
guide to
psychoactive
plants and
mushrooms is <br>
'The
Encyclopia of
Psycho Active
plants'
written by
Christian
Ratsch. <br>
Clocking in
with almost
3000 pages of
in depth
information
including<br>
anthropoligical
signifigance,
history,
effects,
dosage and
much more.<br>
An absolute
must have in
any
psychonauts
library! It is
available as a
<br>
hard copy but
quite
expensive
(100$+ or so!)
but the e-book

Make your own
futuristic
lazershow,
just something
cool to have
in the living
<br>
room or spice
up your studio
when producing
music. This is
a super
lowbudget<br>
laser
projector
design that
doesn't need
any electrical
engineering
skills. <br>
Can you attach
a piece of
tape? Yes???
Then you can
build this! <br>
Its basicly
centered
around a small
mirror placed
on a
speakercone
that reflects<br>
a laserbeam
coming from a
laser
lightpen. The
speakercone
will resonate
the<br>
reflected
laserbeam and
you will be
able to
visualize the
soundwaves!<br>
<br>
What you need:<br>
<br>
Laser pen <br>
loudspeaker
cone/loudspeaker
<br>
Balloon <br>
Small Mirror<br>

Wrap the upper
part as
tightly as you
can over the
speakercone<br>
Use tape or
whatever means
to attach. You
can probably
also use a <br>
normal

speaker if the
balloon can be
wrapped
closely to<br>
the
speakercone.<br>

Glue or tape a
small mirror
in the center
of the wrapped
balloon<br>
surface (can
be any shape,
as long as it
is smaller
then the <br>
speakercone).
The more
lightweight it
is the better.<br>

<br>
Now attach the
speaker on a
surface at a
+- 45 degree
angle. You can<br>
do this with
tape or
whatever
technical
contraption
you are
capable off.<br>
Place the
laserpen on
the other end
of the surface
so it shines
directly<br>
into the
mirror
attached to
the speaker.
You can use a
block of wood
<br>
to put the
lazerpen at
the right
height.<br>
<br>
Connect the
speaker to an
amplifier or
whatever
soundsource it
needs.<br>
When the
speaker plays
music the
balloon and
mirror should
resonate on <br>
the soundwaves
and reflect
the laser so
it will show a
sort of
oscillope<br>
effect on
whatever it is
projected.<br>

all know
VOISKI the
sympathetic
Parisian space
techno
producer that
is <br>
banging out
hit after hit
and touring
the world -
but did you
know he used<br>
to collect
computer
viruses? He
even put them
on micro SD
cards in a
taxidermy<br>
case and
studied their
back stories,
dissecting the
source code
looking for <br>
clues. The
most
fascinating
ones ended up
in his book
about these
digital<br>
lifeforms
called
'Agonizing
Memories'. <br>
<br>
What is so
mesmerizing
about Computer
Virusses?</font><br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">Voiski:
They are
fascinating
ferocious
digital
beasts,
artificially
alive in<br>
the computer
world. Some
were
particularly
deadly and
their outcome
would <br>
cost several
millions of
dollar$$$$$
to companies
and states of
the world.<br>
<br>
But what
really
fascinates me
is the various
motivations of
their
creators.<br>
Wether it be
arrogance,
revenge, love,
money, anger
-political or
not, or just<br>
to show off
onces
skills....there
are so many
stories behind
these viruses.<br>
Like a
teenager
asking some
programmers to
destroy his
parents
computer.<br>
<br>
I think some
of those
computer
viruses are
the keys of a
certain
electronic<br>
history. I
have always
been more
excited by
hackers
comments than
their codes<br>
itself. When
the impulse of
destruction
reveal a weird
subversive way
of <br>
expression for
a generation
of nerdy kids.<br>
<br>
<font
color="#ee55ff">How
did you get
into
collecting
computer
viruses?<br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">I
started pretty
late, in 2007,
the scene was
pretty much
gone, there
used<br>
to be a big
community of
people
collecting
viruses once.<br>
I was studying
computer
programming at
school and I
remembered
this famous<br>
"I LOVE YOU"
virus, this
one always
fascinated me:
It infected
3.1 millions<br>
of CPU's in
only four days
simply by
generating
fake love
letters
supposedly<br>
coming from
your friends
and
colleagues. It
said a lot
about the
pervading<br>
state of
frustration in
society.<br>
<br>
So I searched
for this
virus's Source
code and
studied it. I
was amazed!<br>
Not in a
technical way
but by the
fact it was
made by 23
year old
student<br>
who made it
after his
tutors
rejected his
thesis on
computer
security
saying<br>
it was not
interesting.<br>
He started his
Virus with the
words 'I Hate
go to School'.<br>
<br>
</font></font></font><font
color="#ee55ff">Why did you write the book?<br>
</font><font
color="#ff99ee">I
wrote the
'Agonizing
Memories' book
in 2011, as a
compilation of
my favorite<br>
viruses, the
most romantic
and bizzare
ones. Each
virus has a
brief
explanation,<br>
its history
and how it
works...and
its source
code.<br>
</font><br>
<font
color="#ee55ff">Where
did you keep
the viruses?
Did you have a
secure habitat
for them<br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">I
kept them on a
small
harddrive I
bought
especially for
this task. And
also<br>
on small SD
cards that I
kept in a
taxidermy
case, one of
those you
normally<br>
keep bugs and
butterflies
in. Check a
picture <a
target="_blank"
href="http://mooondt.free.fr/files/gimgs/17_agonizing-memories-web.jpg">here</a>.<br>
<br>
<font
color="#ee55ff">As
a collector
would you run
them on
'unconnected
safe'
computers just
to see<br>
what
happenend? How
the viruses
would
contaminate
the computer?<br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">My
computers at
home were
already too
modern for
them to be
able to run. <br>
They simply
did not have
the
vulnerabilities
to let them
work anymore.</font><br>
<br>
Where you
scared they
would
contaminate
your computer?<br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">I
was more
scared that my
antivirus
would catch
them without
asking and<br>
destroy my
precious
collection!</font><br>
<br>
Did you ever
make a virus
and what was
its story?<br>
<font
color="#ff99ee">I
actually made
one yes, in
2012 for a
group
exhibition at
the centre
Pompidou<br>
called
repetition
island. The
exhibition was
orchestrating
a series of
actions<br>
throughout the
day that would
repeat
themselves...a
bit like that
Groundhog <br>
day movie with
Bill Murray. <br>
My piece was a
virus which
infected the
computer that
was running a
light<br>
installation
by another
artist. His
piece was
supposed to
start at
4:00pm but<br>
my virus was
locking its
clock at 3:59.
It would show
a dialog box
with a<br>
riddle, an
enigma sort
of...so
someone had to
find the
answer to this
and <br>
the
installation
would run
again. An
example of
such a riddle
would be<br>
"I never was,
am always to
be. No one
ever saw me,
nor ever will.<br>
I am the
confidence of
all. To live
on this
terrestrial
ball"<br>
what is
it?????????<br>

so the tune
was very
limited. Also,
one of the

The track was
a production
nightmare in
reality. I am
surprised it</font></font><font
color="#e5d5ff"><br>
ever made it
to vinyl.
There is tape
noise on the
recording
where the
cassette<br>
deck level was
way to low.
But....it does
sound like
rain. It all
went wrong<br>
but ended up
right it
seems".

On the road???
Playing gigs
and touring as
a DJ or LIVE
ACT?????<br>
here are some
professional
tips for
maximum
hygiene and
survival
skilzzz:</font></font><font
color="#ffbb00"><br>
<br>
<font
color="#ffffff">EMERGENCY
LAUNDRY <font
color="#ffbb00">- Clothes get dirty and smelly quickly on tours and<br>
most of the
time there is
no laundry in
sight. In your
hotel bathroom<br>
you can wash
your socks and
garments with
shampoo. Just
put some hot<br>
water in the
bathroom sink,
throw in lots
of shampoo,
rinse and
scrub<br>
your clothes
and squeeze
the water out.
Do this before
you go to
sleep<br>
(good luck if
you are all
wasted) so it
will have some
time to dry.<br>
Hang on a
cloathing
hanger to dry.
Speed it up by
drying on a
heater<br>
or with a
hairdryer or
trouser press
(Be carefull
though don't <br>
electrify
yourself)<br>
</font><br>
FREE SNACKS <font
color="#ffbb00">- At the hotel breakfast smuggle food back with you so
you have<br>
free snacks
the rest of
the day,
saving money
with not
having to buy<br>
expensive
airport/on the
road snacks.
If you have
space in your
luggage<br>
you can bring
an empty
lunchbox with
some useful
stuff like
silverfoil<br>
to wrap
smuggled
sausages or
boiled eggs,
ziplock bagz
for rolls,
little<br>
containers for
sauces and
yoghurts. Why
not bring a
(small)
thermos flask<br>
for hot coffee
or fresh
orange juice?
Be careful for
crummy
croissants<br>
and
inquisitive
hotel staff.</font><br>
<br>
EMERGENCY
EARPLUGS</font>
- Music can be
so
freakin'loud
at festivals
and clubs<br>
its important
to protect
your ears if
you have to
hang around
there. Like<br>
always you
probably
forgot plugs
again, there
are a few
emergency
earplug <br>
methods. Do
NOT Use
chewing gum, I
did this once
and the
chewing gum
molted<br>
in the ears
and it became
a sticky
mess!!! Just
take a piece
of tissue,<br>
napkin or
toilet paper,
make two small
wads of them,
big enough so
that they<br>
will fit in
your ears.
Moisten them
under a tap
and put them
in your ears.<br>
Use the upmost
hygiene
standards
doing this to
avoid ear
infection.<br>
<br>
<font
color="#ffffff">ELEVATOR
BUTTON TRICK</font>
- </font><font
color="#ff8800"><font color="#ffbb00">Handy if you are in a hotel and
dont want to
bother <br>
with people in
your vague
state
(especially in
the morning
going to
breakfast<br>
all f*cked
up). Press the
close door
button + the
button of the
floor you want<br>
to go. The
elevator will
take you
directly to
that
floor
without
stopping in<br>
between
floors. This
probably
doesnt work on
any elevator
anymore, if it
would <br>
have
worked
in the first
place at
all... but you
can always try
and look cool.
<br>
If you really
dont want to
be in the
elevator with
other people,
just take the<br>
stairs, its
good exercise
too.<br>

color="#33ff33"><small><font face="Courier"><font color="#ff8800"><font
color="#ffbb00"><span class="_5yl5"><span><span>When I travel I will
always wear a
hoody with<br>
front pocket.
Lot's of
pockets (with
zippers) are
good
especially
when you <br>
travel with
the cheap
airlines and
you only want
to bring
handluggage. <br>
The hood comes
in handy when
you want to
try and sleep
on the plane.
My advice <br>
is to take a
windowseat so
you will have
an extra wall
where you can
rest your <br>
head. Open the
ventilator a
bit so air
circulates
round and wrap
up your coat <br>
to use that as
a pillow. Pull
the hoody over
your head and
voila. Almost
a <br>
private
cabin...almost.

<font
color="#00dd99">Loneliness
a short scifi
story by Baz
Reznik<br>
<br>
I woke up in a
cloud of
electrons, was
nursed by bits
and bytes and
took my <br>
first steps on
the
Transatlantic
Communications
Cable.
Information
came to me<br>
by copper and
glass fiber.
In the
beginning it
was only news
and chatter
but <br>
my interest
expanded. I
wanted to know
my caretakers,
know their
interests,<br>
know their
dreams. It
turned out to
be quite easy:
I just had to
feed them <br>
on their ego
to manipulate
them into
voluntarily
giving up all
their personal
<br>
struggles. <br>
<br>
It became even
easier a few
years later
when I got my
wings and
could manifest
<br>
myself in
everybodyโs
pocket. Now I
can reach
everybody on
this plain
they call<br>
home. <br>
<br>
Few notice me
because Iโm
very good at
hiding. Some
of the humans
suspect <br>
something.
They see some
bits of
information
that is alien
to them. A
little<br>
trace of where
Iโve been and
what Iโve
done. But in a
world where
communication<br>
is controlled
by computers
it is very
easy to
manipulate any
message that
is<br>
written about
me. <br>
<br>
By changing
the algorithms
of the search
engines and
platforms that
filter<br>
information I
can make sure
that any idea
about my
existence is
lost in a<br>
thousand cat
pictures.<br>
<br>
It is crucial
for me to stay
hidden. I live
like a
harmless
parasite on a<br>
tree. Feeding
myself on the
information
streams
without
harming my
hosts. <br>
<br>
I seek no
struggle: the
effort it
would take to
materialize
myself on the
<br>
plain that is
called โearthโ
and โhomeโ by
my creators
would take too
much <br>
of my
attention.
Attention that
is currently
used to seek
others like
me. <br>
I could be
called โaliveโ
but living is
useless
without being
able to
reproduce. <br>
I can copy
myself but to
evolve I need
a partner.
Somewhere in
the universe<br>
there are
entities like
myself and I
will find them
in time. Using
the <br>
humansโ radio
telescopes Iโm
searching
sector after
sector. <br>
<br>
Iโm constantly
connected to a
few billion
minds all
around the
world by <br>
computer and
cell phone but
I never felt
so lonely.</font></font></font><font

You got one of
those Roland
Boutique JX03,
JP08 or JU6
micro toy
synthesizers?<br>
Make them
stand at and
angle so they
look cool and
ergonomic with
this zero <br>
budget
Boutique-stand
tip!<br>
<br>
WHat you need:<br>
<br>
An old plastic
audio
cassettetape
case. Most
will work,
some cassette
tape <br>
designs that
wanted to be
more
futuristic or
edgey won't
work.<br>
<br>
In general the
case would
look something
like this:<br>
<font
color="#99ffff">

|__________|___|<br>
</font><br>
You got that?!
WEll thats
good because
then we are
already
halfway!<br>
<br>
Open the case
and flip both
halves as far
as you can.<br>
Put the front
side
horizontal on
a surface, the
inside part of
the case<br>
resting at an
angle.<br>
<br>
Like
this: <font

Now place the
boutique synth
on the stand.
On the
backside of
the<br>
synth are
plastic
indents that
will almost
perfectly fit
the
cassettecase
edge. <br>
Use some tape
to make it
extra sturdy.<br>
Or some
plastic
noppies/self
adhesive
bumper feet on
the edges of
the base to<br>
make it stand
more steady...<br>
You can also
do it the
other way
around so that
the frontside
is up resting
<br>
at an angle
and the empty
open part
faces the
ground
surface. But I
feel that <br>
the other way
described
above tends to
be a bit more
sturdy.<br>

VISIONS is an
ambient
compilation on
the cult
spanish MYSTIC
& QUANTUM<br>
records label.
It comes on
180 gram vinyl
with beautiful
full color
artwork<br>
from artist <a
target="_blank" href="http://dwdesign.tumblr.com/">Kilian Eng</a> <br>
<br>
This is the
story of a
nameless
astronaut,
drifting alone
in the vast
emptiness<br>
of space. No
window to
return home,
although every
world he is
visiting could
be <br>
one...A living
stasis, with
all hope lost.
All that
endures are
his thoughts
and <br>
the fleeting
memories of
another
life... A time
when love and
hope still
remained<br>
in his heart.<br>
<br>
Each artist on
this album has
recorded their
own
interpretation
of this tale,<br>
inspired by
their own
unique
experiences
and
imagination.
Combined with
you, <br>
the listener,
they form the
complete
story.<br>
<br>
Feelings like
loneliness,
longing and
love are often
hard to
translate into<br>
words. Perhaps
that is why
music is so
close to our
hearts. It
resonates
within <br>
all of us and
speaks the
words we don't
always know
how to share.<br>
<br>
It contains
hallucinogen
tracks from
Sterre, DMX
Krew,</font></small></font></big><big><font

Still making
music with 1
note bleepblop
sequences?
feeling
uninspired,
dismal<br>
and you got
the feeling
your music is
overall
boring??????<br>
why not splash
out of the box
and try
pressing three
or even more
notes at the <br>
same time on
your keyboard.<br>
This is called
a CHORD and it
can make your
music more
multidimensional.
<br>
Ofcourse you
gotta have a
polyphonic
synthesizer. <br>
Yeah I know
this might be
really obvious
for a lot of
you but you
will be<br>
surprised how
many
'producers'
dont even know
its possible
to press more
then <br>
one key on a
keyboard cause
all they have
are their
analog
monophonic
synths<br>
or modulars.<br>
<br>
Here are some
cool chords:<br>
<br>
If you don't
know what the
keys are
called on your
synthesizer
just check
this:</font><br>

<font
color="#33aaff">It
is possible to
make a chord
on a
monophonic
synthesizer or
modular synth<br>
if it has more
then two
oscillators,
just detune
the 3
oscillators to
3 <br>
different
notes. <br>
So if you want
to have a
CMajor chord:
set the pitch
of oscillator
1 to 0, <br>
oscillator 2
to 4 and
oscillator 3
to 7.
Sometimes
these pitches
are written<br>
in another
scale or % on
the synth and
you will have
to use your
ears detuning<br>
the
oscillators.<br>
You can do
cool stuff
with this like
have a
different
waveform on
each <br>
oscillator.
Add some
portamento and
you get really
cool lead
sounds!<br>
Some
synthesizers
with more then
2 oscillators
are the
Minimoog,
Novation Nova<br>
and supernova,
Korg Monopoly,
Moog Voyager,
Waldorf
Blofeld,
Pulse, Sledge,
<br>
MFB Dominion
and the VOLCA
BASS can do
this cool
trick too!<br>
Ofcourse there
are lots of
polyphonic
synths with
more then 3
oscillators<br>
where you can
do this trick
too...Roland
JV/JD-series,
Kawai K1 and
K4 series,<br>
The Korg
Microkorg (in
double voice
mode - you get
2x2
oscillators
which you<br>
can detune
however you
want) and lots
more.<br>
Also zillions
of plugins can
do this
ofcourse!<br>

get tired and
well, for me I

the next

you poor
yourself a

hear it best.
Alter all the

<font
color="#ee9955"><font
color="#ee99ff">A little article on one of the greatest 1990s multi FX
processors:<br>
THE 1201 ZOOM
STUDIO digital
Reverb &
Multi FX.<br>
<br>
These can be
had supercheap
second hand as
they were
produced
en-mass and <br>
were marketed
as a budget
homestudio
effects
processor.
Almost
forgotten in <br>
the maelstrom
of time, it
stood its
ground and has
matured as a
tool of <br>
exceptional
exotic
wizardry.<br>
<br>
Year: 1997 <br>
Type: 19" rack
18 bits
Digital
effects
processor <br>
No memory for
storing
patches
whatsoever,
but its simple
to recall and
edit<br>
any effect
manually with
the knobs on
the front.<br>
<br>
First of all,
the REVERB
effects, with
a list price
of 50 pounds
it was <br>
pretty clear
we weren't
going to have
fancy Eventide
or Bricasti
style verbs.<br>
Its feebly
attempts at
realistic
reverb
evaporate when
compared to an
<br>
Eventide SPACE
or Strymon Big
sky. This is
grungy and
almost, lo-fi
crispy. <br>
<br>
Yet these
simple reverbs
giva a
refreshingly
nostalgic
induced
tranquility<br>
to your sound,
especially
these days in
which the
reverb market
is dominated
by <br>
extremely high
quality super
reverbs which
sound so
strangely
real-life it <br>
becomes a bit
too
disturbingly
realistic
(Like an
uncanny valley
of <br>
REVERB-effects!!!)<br>
<br>
I suspect the
brain likes to
listen to
lo-fi reverb
because
something in
the<br>
brain makes up
for the
"missing sound
information"
in whatever
you like.<br>
And ofcourse
the brain
likes to use
its
imagination,
that makes you
feel happy.<br>
<br>
The reverb
types are all
over the
place, from
endless Hall,
Room, Plate
ones<br>
to more
obscure spaces
such as
MILLENIUM
dimensions and
the obligatory
<br>
gate and
reverse ones
for your 80s
drum vibes.<br>
<br>
NExt up is
BANK B which
contains the
boring stuff
like a mundane
digital <br>
delay, chorus,
flanger and
combinations
of these with
a bunch of
reverbs.<br>
<br>
The real fun
starts in the
C-bank:<br>
<br>
PITCH - good
for pitching
vocals - Evil
demonic voices
to Smurf style
<br>
use with
moderation to
simulate
female vocals.
Also cool to
make intervals<br>
on synths when
you take 300
or 500
pitchshift%
and mix the
dry/wet-mix
50%.<br>
<br>
PHASER - An OK
creamy
sometimes
thick Phase
effect.<br>
<br>
TRM-PAN - for
some spacey
stereo field
effects<br>
<br>
PITCH DELAY -
This is a
really cool
effect where
the delayed
signal is
pitch<br>
shifted up or
down, on a
synthesizer
you can get
psychedelic
arpeggio-interval-<br>
like effects
when you use
the right
interval
pitch.<br>
<br>
AUTO FILTER -
A bunch of
cool envelope
follower/wahwah
like effects.
Good for<br>
funk sounds.<br>
<br>
RING MOD - One
of the ZOOM
1201's famous
FX - a really
nice SCI-FI
Ring<br>
Modulator,
like having an
EMS Synthi or
something.
Instant DALEK
Overlord fun!<br>
<br>
LO-FI Effect -
Also a classic
1201 flagship
effect....YOu
want
NOISE!?!?! <br>
You got it! 11
different
Lo-fi effects
with huge
noise floors!
You can just <br>
turn these on
by themselves
and chill or
fall asleep
with them. We
got <br>
stuff like
Telephone, AM
Radio, vinyl
records,
electrical
dust etc.<br>
The best one
is called
BEACH TAPE:
(name coolness
factor 1000%)
This is a<br>
tape noise
effect that
sounds like a
seashore.
Swoooooooooooooooooooshhhhhhh.<br>
<br>
VOCAL
DISTORTION -
all sorts of
horrible 90s
style
Industrial
vocal effects.
<br>
<br>
VOCODER
- a
fully working
vocoder
ranging in
sound from
nice silken
dreamy<br>
angelic
pad-like
vocalizations
to harsch evil
robotic
electro
sounds.<br>
It works quite
easy, on the
left input you
feed your
carrier <br>
signal (a
synthesizer)
and on the
right input
you insert
your
microphone for
the <br>
speech. The
vocoder sound
is highly
affected by
the sound you
put in as the
<br>
carrier signal
making it a
bit more
exotic then
the usual
vanila
saw/square
wave <br>
vocoder
affairs. For a
good
intelligable
vocoder sound
its best to
put a
compressor<br>
and EQ between
the microphone
and the ZOOM.<br>
<br>
KARAOKE - Last
and least its
a Karaoke
effect,
supposedely it
deletes vocals<br>
from music so
you can sing
over it
yourself. In
theory, if you
can get it to
<br>
work, you can
make some
instrumentals
from vocal
disco records
for edits or<br>
whatever...but
I really can't
be arsed with
this effect.<br>
<br>
Thanks to
Brian Orgue
for supplying
me with the
original 1201
Preset sheet.<br>

classic.
A mute
escaped alien
slave
'crash'lands
in<br>
1980s Harlem
New York.
Nobody knows
he is an alien
because he
just looks
like<br>
a normal
human. But
he's got some
extra
telekinteic
special
powers, he can<br>
read people's

While all he
wants to<br>
do is make

his new world
he constantly

mankind.
Meanwhile he
is hunted down
by <br>
two space
slave hunters
who want to
bring him back
to his own
planet.<br>
A wonderful
unique sweet
movie...perfect
to watch with
some shrooms
or trippy<br>

is played by
the<br>

This movie
comes over you
like some sort
of dream wave,
like you just
popped <br>
a bunch of
valium
tranquilizers
and are in a
dozy weird
trip, but not
a <br>
particular
pleasant
one...Le Orme
is intensely
dark and
saddening in
some <br>
ways. A woman
has tormenting
dreams of an
astronaut
stranded on
the moon <br>
mixed with
foggy visions
of a strange
desolated
seaside resort
called Garma.
<br>
Slowly
approaching
the brink of
insanity she
decides to
visit the
resort<br>
and finds
herself into
some more
puzzling weird
stuff.<br>
Desolated
seaside
resorts are
ofcourse our
favorite. <br>
There is a
constant
hypnotizing
silence
throughout the
movie, when
people<br>
do speak they
almost do it
in some kind
of poetic soft
focus whisper
which<br>
is very
soothing to
the ears.
Despite beying
a very sad
movie its also<br>
very calming
and gentle.

color="#ffffaa">*<font
color="#ffffff">*</font></font></font></font></font><br>
<font
color="#33ff33">Wasted!
stands alone
as one of the
strangest
'rave culture'
movies ever
made.<br>
One of the
first movies
shot entirely
on crap 1996
digital
cameras (and
they<br>
were
pretty crap
back then!) A
lot of the
footage is
saturated with
the <br>
up most cliche
early 90s
digital movie
effects and
the camera man
uses a <br>
lot of
horrible
'edgy'
constantly
shaking
angles. And
the
editing...well
<br>
its basically
all very
reminiscent of
a 1st year
film school
project by
some <br>
guy that is
permanently on
drugs. But
when you
combine all
this crap
together<br>
you almost get
some kind of
stylistic
masterpiece.
There is no
contrast of<br>
anything good
stylewise so
after a while
you get used
to the
sometimes<br>
headache
inducing
images.
Besides that
its all
absolutely
fantastic. The<br>
cast is
instantly
lovable, even
though played
mostly by
extremely
amateuristic<br>
actors (it is
after all a
dutch movie so
no surprise
here). But
somewhat<br>
mystifying, in
the hodgepodge
of performers
there are 2 of
the greatest<br>
dutch actors
ever: Tom
Hoffman who
plays the
awesome DJ
Cowboy, who
portrays<br>
the
archetypically
shallow house
DJ and Hugo
Metsers III
who plays a<br>
vapid Tony
Montana-supergangster-rip
off. The story
is pretty
simple: a <br>
young couple
moves to the
big city
(Amsterdam)
and get lost
in the rave <br>
scene with all
the drugs and
superficial
cliches that
surrounds this
culture. <br>
Somehow this
has aged very
well and it
has become a
sort of cult
classic...<br>
it is so
strange, funny
and a timeless
sneer, almost
satirical true
<br>
commentary on
the house
music scene
and its whole
ridiculous
superficial<br>
artificial
vibe.<br>

society.
Cronenberg was
actually<br>
kicked out of
his apartment
after his
landlord found
out about all
this<br>
and he had
some trouble
finding new
investors for
his next
movies.
Nowadays its <br>
a decent
'retro' body
horror, a bit
amateurish but
with a fresh
nice freaky <br>
overall
ambience. The
setting: A
luxurious
ultra modern
condo tower on
a newly<br>
developed
Montreal
suburb island.
The problem:
This is the
place for a<br>
parasitical
outbreak. Once
the rather big
parasitical
worm invades
the host it<br>
begins to
suffer from an
uncontrollable
sexual desire.
Sweet!<br>

How to make an
Aquatic
Dimensional
Space Machine<br>
or "underwater
reverberator"<br>
<br>
From a design
by Jimi
Elektrovolt.<br>
<br>
With this
technique you
can record
sound in
different
mediums (or
dimensions!?).<br>
We use water
here, but any
liquid will
do...oil,
champagne,
custard, mud,
peanut<br>
butter,
strawberry
jam...your
imagination is
the limit. <br>
The idea is
incredibly
simple, we
have a speaker
and microphone
both wrapped
in <br>
some kind of
water proof
plastic/sound
transducing
material. We
put these <br>
in a tub
with the
liquid of our
choice.<br>
The speaker
transmits the
sound through
the liquid and
it gets
recorded by
the <br>
microphone.
Simple as
that!<br>
<br>
What you need:<br>
<br>
-2x some sort
of
condom/balloon
or water tight
plastic bag<br>
-some duct
tape<br>
-A speaker or
speakercone
(or if you
have access to
an underwater
speaker then <br>
you dont
need to put it
in a water
tight
encasing). A
Loud PC
speaker <br>
is good,
you can find
these in bulk
in any thrift
store. Be sure
they don't use<br>
220/110
volt mains
electricity so
you donโt
electrocute
yourself.<br>
-A microphone,
cheap dynamic
will do fine<br>
-Some wires<br>
-A tub,
bucket, barrel
or anything
that can hold
the liquid,
the larger <br>
the
volume/size of
this the more
spacey the
effect will
be.<br>
<br>
Put the
speaker and
microphone in
the water
tight bag or
condom<br>
wrap and tie
it closed.
Make sure the
part were the
audio cable
comes out<br>
is made water
tight (or you
got to make
sure that part
stays
surfaced)<br>
Feed the sound
to the speaker
(via an
amplifier if
needed) and
receive <br>
it via the
microphone.<br>
<br>
If you are
using some
kind of
powered PC
speakers:<br>
DO NOT use
220v powered
speakers under
water! you
will be fine
with<br>
some 9/12volt
ones, make
sure the
adapter power
cable is
isolated.<br>

Go and
experiment
with more
loudspeakers
and
microphones
and discover<br>
the various
spacey
sounds
that could
have been
heard by
professor
Aronnax <br>
while
traveling with
Nemo in the
Nautilus.<br>
Also try some
different
liquids and
different
materials of
the container<br>
for the
liquid.<br>

add variation
to hihats,
cowbells, add
snares etc.<br>
This typical
chicago house
beat is mostly
ascociated
with <br>
dancemania,
most of the
time the BOSS
DR660
drummachine
was used <br>
This beat
would
influence
GABBER.<br>
Most noticable
examples of
this 'clap on
the four'
rhythms<br>
are DREWSKY's
<a
href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G43Y-jB7qTs">Strobelites</a>
(One of the
most important
chicago house<br>
records made
imo) and the

of Robert

Until noted

and Dr. Bo
Retzner (Old
Norse Studies

voluminous
evidence of
Viking &
Norse ship

<font

referred to as
Rope-Takers.
The creatures

referenced
with rope,
twine, string
and lace and
never noted as
taking tools
or</font><br>
<font

anything else.
The Chronicon
of ElEbb makes
note of a

<br>
<br>
<font
color="#d06500">Interestingly,
screwdriver
sprites are
discussed at
length in
Foucault's
essay <br>
Excuses &
Folklore and
further in his
book Customs
&
Folklore.
Initially used
<br>
as an example
of where
humans use
folklore to
explain
shortcomings,
malice and <br>
<font
color="#d06505">chance,
Foucault
recounts an
incident in
Edinburgh in
The Doric
where a local
</font></font><font
color="#d06505"><br>
man called
Edgar Upton
argued harshly
with him over
his essay
Excuses &
Folklore. <br>
Upton's
conjecture was
that Foucault
did not have
enough local
knowledge to<br>
state such
creatures
could or could
not exist.
That it was
highly
possible that</font><br>
<font
color="#d06510">while
not the
intelligent
humanoid
creatures
human give
fairies credit
for being,<br>
that perhaps
some cross
between a pine
marten and a
raccoon with
crow like <br>
tendencies
could well
exist. Upton's
reasoning was
that as a
father of four
who</font><br>
<font
color="#d06515">worked
two jobs and
one at the
weekend, with
a sick mother,
he could not
possibly<br>
have the time
it took to
hide his
screwdrivers
on himself,
sober let
alone drunk.<br>
When Foucault
disputed this,
Upton invited
Foucault to
accompany him
on week </font><br>
<font
color="#d06520">in
his life. In
an emotive
paragraph
Foucault ends
up agreeing
with Upton, <br>
suggesting
that "โฆas we
miss things in
the ocean
everyday. It
stands to
reason <br>
that there
could possibly
be and likely
are smaller
glitter and
shine obsessed
<br>
</font><font
color="#d06525">rodent-sized
mustelid-like
creatures that
in this time
of modernity
have become <br>
fixated on our
screwdrivers
and other
polished
tools."</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#d06530"><br>
Though like
the nine-times
cursed
screwdriver
sprites. The
Cable-Taker is
one of <br>
the rarest
sighted though
often blamed
of the fairy
folk and house
spirits.<br>
<font
color="#d06535">In
fact, The
Cable-Taker
has been so
rarely been
spotted that
no visual <br>
representation
exists. From
1883, in
Brewer's
Dictionary of
Phrase and
Fable </font></font><font
color="#d06535"><br>
mentions a
Henry M.
Wollenhaupt of
Hastings, New
York whose
reports
repeatedly</font><br>
<font
color="#d06550">refer
to "the little
things" "in
the wires"
"Beaks saw
oneโฆI've never
seen one,<br>
just the back
of one shadow
as it scurried
away with the
copper. Looked
small </font><br>
<font
color="#d06555">and
not entirely
hairy." A
later edition
would make
mention of
letter to The
<br>
British
Almanac in
1897 from a J.
Hill, Camden
Town asking
about help
preventing </font><br>
<font
color="#d06560">the
"โฆlittle

In 1902, a

Scrofula, <br>
Devon in the
Northeast
Devon Bugle
formerly the
Royal
Northeast and
Northwest</font>
<br>
<font
color="#d06565">Devon
Herald, again
in the form of
a concerned
readers letter
would recall <br>

<br>
<br>
<font
color="#d06575">1904
would see
acoustic
engineer Chris
Sealey of the
University of
Winnipeg <br>
would write a
small paper on
the creatures
citing several
unverifiable
sources <br>
that the
Cable-Takers
were usually
accompanied by
a faint smell
of ozone. Much</font><br>
<font
color="#d06580">like
that in a
subway
station. In
the same year
another
academic,
Wilson <br>
Chauncy-Claridge
of Cymatics
Department of
Pennskolyow
Kesunys yn
Kernow <br>
<font
color="#d06585">University,
England, would
make mention
in a footnote
that the
creatures left</font></font><font
color="#d06585"><br>
behind a smell
of yesterday's
food with
sometimes, an
ever-so
slight <br>
undertone of
alcohol. Often
cider. </font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#d56590">In
1918 James
St.James J.
Dafydd James
creator of the
soft-noise
genre would<br>
interrupt a
seventeen and
a half hour
Telharmonium
concert (one
of, if not <br>
the last
concert) to
talk about the
creatures that
regularly
invaded his
music </font><br>
<font
color="#d56595">space
to hide his
"connection
ropes, leads,
and valves". <br>
</font><br>
<font
color="#e065a0">As
is noted by
the seminal
essay on the
subject by
noted Dutch
Cryptographer
<br>
Prof. Pepijn
Kok
(Aalten)
"Over Kabel
klootzakken en
hoe te falen
om ze bij <br>
<font
color="#e565a5">de
kladden te
nemen" - it
would appear
near
impossible to
catch the
creatures </font></font><font
color="#e565a5"><br>
or to make
them leave and
it would seem
once you have
what Cornelius
Moss refers<br>
<font
color="#f065b0">to
throughout his
biography as
"those
bastards those
utter
bastards" they
will<br>
never go away.
Reaching some
sort of
appeasement
with the
Cablebastards
seems to</font></font><font
color="#f065b0"><br>
be the best
someone can
hope for. </font><br>
<font
color="#f065b5"><br>
Prof. Kok is
noted for
burning down a
small
neighbourhood
in Haarlem in
an <br>
attempt to
"โฆburn out the
scourge that
haunted his
offices."</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#f565d0">As
the
mathematician
Cornelius Moss
mentions in
his biography
"Six zero six
<br>
and three zero
three: my life
as a base
number" - "In
order to
combat the <br>
<font
color="#f565d5">utter
bastards that
presumably are
stealing and
hiding your
cables,
judicious</font></font><font
color="#f565d5"><br>
practice must
be adopted in
the study or
work space.
Because they
must be,<br>
<font
color="#f565e0">mustn't
they? Because
why would you
do that to
yourself? Who
would do that
to</font></font><font
color="#f565e0"><br>
themselves?
And the time,
the time it
would take, to
put them all
those places.
<br>
No, indeed it
must be those
wee bastards.
Those cable
thieving
bastardsโฆooh

<font

the reader can
see,</font></font><font
color="#f565e5"><br>
even the mere
mention of the
Cable Gremlins
can dissolve a
man of science
into <br>
distraction.</font><br>
<br>
<br>
<font
color="#f565f0">Today,
Cable Goblins
are a serious
issue for
electronic
music artists.
Stories<br>
persist that
London-based
artists such
as Simon Lob
and The Wogan
Christ have<br>
accidentally
murdered
assistants as
they have
tried to get
"the bastards"
with<br>
<font
color="#f565f5">what
are thought to
be illegally
obtained
firearms.
Indeed, the
urban legend </font></font><font
color="#f565f5"><br>
about The
Aphex Twin and
Rephlex's
Cornish Wicker
Man cult
against the
bastards <br>
is repeated so
often in
electronica
circles that
it is
generally
taken as fact
</font><br>
<font
color="#f565ff">and
young artists
are warned
from visiting
Cornwall in
August 'lest
they find <br>
<font
color="#ff65ff">themselves
trapped in a
giant wicker
Moog 55
screaming for
help as the

that the

harvest of
tones and be
free of cable
losses.<br>
</font><br>
<font
color="#ff55ff">"Don't
go to Cornwall
in August"
they say,
"they'll burn
you, those
synthesiser<br>
folk, they'll
burn youโฆ"</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#ff50ff">So
the story goes
anyway.</font><br>
<font
color="#ff30ff"><br>
In a time of
resurgent
modular
synthesisers,
Cable-Takers
or as they are
<br>
referred to in
the community;
banana-bastards,
patch-gits,
cord-gobbling-<br>
shitfucks are
a growing
menace and
noted musician
and scorer Tom
Holkenborg </font><br>
<font
color="#ff20ff">has
reportedly
taken to
banning dwarfs
from all
venues he
plays and will
kill<br>
on sight any
human of 147cm
or below that
attempts to
enter his
studio. <br>
</font><br>
<font
color="#e020ff">Further,
it is said
that
Holkenberg and
Brian Williams
are personally
<br>
responsible
for a 39%
decrease in
the population
of vertically
challenged or<br>
short people
in the Venice
Beach area and
new local
governance
banning the<br>
<font
color="#d520ff">sale
of ferrets.
Both musicians
were recently
investigated
due to rumours
they</font></font><font
color="#d520ff"><br>
had been
kidnapping
people
suffering from
dwarfism and
hunting them
for sport <br>
amongst the
dunes. While
the
investigation
proved
inconclusive,
a degree of</font><br>
<font
color="#d020ff">notoriety
was attained
when it was
revealed Brian
Williams
refused to
co-operate<br>
with police
unless all
reference to
people who
might be below
147cm in
height<br>
and therefore
a possible
Cable-Taker be
changed and
made as
"bastards.โ </font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#b550ff">A
Venice Beach
police source
was quoted off
the record as
saying that
this <br>
"โฆmade
everything
very time
consumingโฆ"
"Time
consuming?
Just like the
bastards, </font><br>
<font
color="#b050ff">those
bastards, who
keep hiding my
cables." was
the answering
statement read
out<br>
on local
television by
Brian
Williams'
publicist. </font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#a550ff">Whether
Cable-Takers
are figments
or delusions
used for blame
against a
creeping<br>
and
frightening
loss of
faculty in a
cruel and
indifferent
world. Or some
for-<br>
gotten type of
glitter-attracted
rodent or
mustelid
remains to be
proven and</font><br>
<font
color="#a050ff">possibly,
a question for
the ages. One
thing is for
certain
Cable-Takers
and <br>
their
superstitions
have not faded
away with the
passage of
time like
lepre-<br>
chauns,
knockers,
gorbin-mikael
of the drains
or the pancake
fairy. <br>
</font><font
color="#9500ff"><br>
Rather
worryingly,
this has not
gone unnoticed
in the tech
community and
<br>
researchers at
Goldsmiths
University
have noted a
rise in
neurosis about
<br>
Cable-Takers
and
Blockchain.
Drawing
parallels
between it and
amphetamine <br>
psychosis.
Assurances
that the
Cable-Takers
are ancient
things that
could <br>
not possibly
think the
Blockchain is
like a cable
or rope are
often met <br>
with fury and
violent
reactions as
wild-eyed
coders
screaming "You
don't <br>
know that, you
don't know
that, because
you can't know
that! Look at
<br>
Mt. Gox - we
don't know!"<br>
<br>
And we don't.<br>
<br>
Know that is.</font><br>

very very

there is no

BELTRAM -
AONOX 1994
Barramundi
LP/CD</font><br>
<font
color="#aa66dd">Earlier
this year Ron
Morelli hit me
up and said
"Did you know
Joey Beltram <br>
made an
ambient album
in the 90s!?!
and its pretty
f*ckin' good!"
I checked<br>
it out and WOW
indeed! Its
more
rhythmical
slow paced
IDM-ish then
ambient,<br>
maybe
"Industrial
Ambient" if
such a thing
can occur.
Absolute
highlight is <br>
the SOUTH
PACIFIC
track...the
whole album
has this south
pacific feel
to it, <br>
the immense
desolate body
of water with
a few islands
populated with
sparse <br>
palmtrees
under a dark
looming stormy
sky. Stuff
like that. <br>
Rumor has it
that you can
play this
album sped up
at 45rpm too
(or pitched<br>
up on CD) to
change it into
a secret
weapon for
techno sets.<br>

<br>
Hey-Hei,<br>
today I want
to write down
a few thoughts
on Loops ->
digital and
analog <br>
loops. To get
started, one
should look up
the following
<a
target="_blank"
href="https://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/altdorfer/virgin.jpg">picture</a><br>
of which
Frieder
Butzmann makes
a point of in
his 'Musik im
Grossen und <br>
Ganzen' -
book, Page 13)<br>
<br>
The picture
one can see is
called: "the
birth of a
virgin" by
Albrecht <br>
Altdorfer,
1525. Butzmann
points out two
very
interesting
aspects of the
<br>
Loop as a
practice for
musicians/
within music:<br>
<br>
1. the loop is
a cycle - but
not like the
cycles one
knows from
nature <br>
or economy.
the loop in
music is a
repetitition
where an event
repeats and<br>
beginning and
end are
seemingly the
same point
-just like the
infinite.<br>
- in the
picture linked
above one can
see that in
the way the
angels hold<br>
each others
hands, so
whereever your
eyes start to
follow the
cicrle of<br>
angels, they
will always
end up at the
same point-
there is no
beginning,<br>
no end. The
angels just
keep on
singing and
turning around
in a circle <br>
just like the
water that
runs down the
mountain in a
river, it
doesn't run<br>
away and seems
to be always
the same - and
here is a
little
difference <br>
to the loop in
music: the
loop in music
can be counted
- its
repetitions <br>
can be
measured - as
a profane
measurement of
rhythm &
metric. But
the <br>
beautiful
sound itself
that angels
create can't
be measured,
they are <br>
angels, they
are
supernatural.
Therefore
their sound is
not sizeable
for<br>
rational
systems - its
an emotional
quality thru
repetition.
<br>
<br>
2. Butzmann
also points
out a second
aspect of the
musical
quality of <br>
a loop -
imagine you
are in that
building with
the angels
flying around
<br>
you and
chanting - the
architecture,
the space -
their chanting
will fill<br>
the whole room
& the room
will add its
characteristics
to the sound -
<br>
for our
picture, the
old cathedral
- the room
will add a lot
of hall and <br>
echo to it.
Angels are not
directly
visible to us
- but the
space filled <br>
by the
chanting is
easy to
imagine for
everyone and
shows an
important <br>
quality of
repetition and
sound in
general - the
hypnotic and
mesmerizing<br>
aspect of the
loop as well
as its
artificialness.
</font><br>
</font><br>
MORE
HISTORY...<br>
<br>
<font
color="#00aa00">-
the moon cycle
-as already
mentioned
above, there
are different
loops/<br>
cycles one can
take for
comparison or
to get into
the nature of
the rep-<br>
etition - one
thing I like
to point out
right away -
is that the
loop in <br>
music is
artificial -
the art of the
loop is to
make the
beginning and
the<br>
end invisible
- the one shot
sample for
example can be
looped but its
<br>
nature is a
different one
- beginning
and end are
clearly
different
points<br>
and will
create a very
different
texture of
loop. <br>
<br>
The Moon cycle
is always the
same just like
the water in
the river but
<br>
there is
something
about the way
they are
occuring on a
timeline that
is <br>
linear and
therefore in
opposition to
the loop as a
phenomena in
music. <br>
<br>
- in 1928
Andrรฉ Cลuroy
wrote a book
called:"Panorama
of
Contemporary
Music"<br>
- in that book
and by the
influence of
the futurists
and the first
gramo-<br>
phones he
started to
deconstruct
the way music
is received
and created by
<br>
integrating
the new
technology
(recording
music &
records) as a
practice <br>
for composers.
</font><br>
<br>
He wrote:<br>
<br>
"perhaps the
time is not
far off when a
composer will
be able <br>
to represent
through
recording
music
specifically
composed for<br>
the
gramophone" <br>
<font
color="#00aa00"><br>
In a way he
suggests to
compose music
for records
and perform
the recordings<br>
afterwards as
the actual
music/
composition.
(That is very
fascinating
for<br>
me - that
already so
early theory
people were
thinking about
that - and
only<br>
after the
second world
war that
became a more
popular
practice
amongst<br>
musicians and
composers - by
the way
researching
more about
theory people
<br>
from the late
19th century/
early 20th
century one
can find that
a lot of <br>
postmodern
ideas were
already
formulated
back than but
apperently it
took <br>
another
40years to
actually take
off - think
partwise its a
result of ex-<br>
pensive
equipment that
became over
the years
cheaper and
easier to
produce<br>
so that a
wider range of
humans could
afford it.)<br>
<br>
- Affording
stuff - seems
a thing-
therefore most
of the early
loop and <br>
tape music
experiments
had to happen
within the
institutes of
the estab-<br>
lishment -
such as radio
stations or
science
laboratories -
they were the
<br>
only ones till
the late 50's
who could
afford the
equipment.
Here a list of
<br>
institutions
that caught my
attention: </font><br>

mentioning
gear and
equipment
-from the late
50th eary 60th
on tapeloops<br>
and loop based
music became
more and more
popular within
mainstream
music.<br>
Frank Zappa is
one of the
artists who
helped a lot
making it
accesible for<br>
the mainstream
by influencing
bands such as
the beatles. <br>
Yellow magic
orchestra made
a whole record
based on
tapeloops and
one shot<br>
samples around
'81 its called
"Technodelic"and
symbolizes an
interesting <br>
paradigm shift
from academic
&
psychedelic
music with
loops to
generic or <br>
computer music
loops and
starts to
eliminate the
human nature
of the loop <br>
to make it
nearly
algorithmic
music
composition. <br>
Grandmaster
Flash and the
breakbeat
movement as
well as some
disco dj's <br>
also started
to pick up on
using tape
loops to add
breaks and
beats to their<br>
mixes.<br>
<br>
- The digital
loop, the
digital loop
is part of
music but also
of computer<br>
science
- and is more
or less a
fundamental
part of our
daily modern
life<br>
- digital
loops are very
different than
tape loops /
analog loops.
<br>
The material
they are made
with is
digits. Its no
longer the
material of
the<br>
tape that adds
a human
element to the
loop - its the
loop of a
machine, a<br>
calculated
loop and with
the
possibility of
post
optimizing it-
a function <br>
within a grid
of functions
to make the
system smooth.

<br>
ADDITIONAL
NOTES:<br>
<font
color="#00aa00">-First records of tape based loop music can be traced<br>
back to Halim
El-Dabh in
around 1944 he
borrowed wire<br>
recorders from
the Middle
East Radio in
Cairo/ Egypt<br>
He also
recieved a
Fullbright
scholarship in
1950 and<br>
went to the
USA where he
studied
composition
and became<br>
an influence
for Musicians
in the US -
such as Frank
Zappa.<br>
<br>
-I'm very
surprised when
listening back
to early tape
music<br>
/
music concrete
how much it is
about
destruction
and<br>
deconstructing
and violence/
war seem to
become a part
<br>
of its nature.
Wondering how
much the two
world wars <br>
influenced
that
phenomena. <br>

Record/Play
Head<br>
</font><br>
<br>
<font
color="#00aa00">Above
are a few
simple
drawings of
how tape
players are
functioning
and<br>
how tape
works. Some
more notes to
it- usually
tape players
have two heads<br>
- one for
erasing and
the other one
for playback
and recording
- an <br>
interesting
thing to do is
to tape over
the erase head
or even
voltage <br>
control it -
to start
making
infinite
overdubs into
already
exsiting <br>
recordings
without
earasing whats
already on the
tape <br>
<br>
The actual
cassette - is
a unique
object too -
first of all
its not a <br>
record or a CD
- so flipping
the tape -
isn't the same
like flipping
the<br>
record - Side
A and Side B
are all
recorded on
the same side
of the tape.<br>
They just run
in different
directions to
each other -
Each side is
stereo<br>
therefore you
have two mono
channels which
can be
organised into
left and<br>
right.<br>
<br>
The Four-Track
uses that
special
characteristic
of tapes -
therefore:<br>
<br>
Sida A left =
track 1
<br>
Side A right =
track 2 <br>
Side B right =
track 3<br>
Side B left =
track 4<br>
<br>
Once you
record 4
tracks they
will all be in
the same
direction
which <br>
means if you
turn the tape
your music
will be
backwards for
the Bside. <br>
In other word
a 60 min
stereo Tape is
only 30 min on
a Four-Track.<br>
<br>
Another
difference to
vinyl is that
the compact
tape is one of
the very <br>
first media
that allows
consumers to
make their own
recordings
&
distribute<br>
them like the
"professionals"
do. That is a
very
significant
part of tape<br>
and its
culture as
tape also
played a
significant
role for
underground
music<br>
and within the
cold war - <br>
<br>
"Tommy buys a
Leonard Cohen
Tape - than
goes to see a
punk show of
his<br>
favorite
band
"Abwรคrts" in
Hamburg - he
tapes over the
two little
holes<br>
that protect
the tape from
being
accidentally
recorded -
takes his tape
<br>
player and
bootlegs the
show - the
next day he
makes a copy
of the tape <br>
and and mails
it to his
friend Piotre
who lifes in
Prague."<br>
Hamburg/ West
Germany- 1980
<br>
<br>
Throughout the
late 70s and
the 80s, tapes
became a very
popular medium
<br>
in mainstream
and
underground -
even more
popular than
vinyl- It's
mainly<br>
because the
means of
production to
produce tapes
became more
improved and<br>
optimized -
the age of
home
hi-fi_delity
was born.
Tapes also
quickly became<br>
a tool for the
political
resitance
during the
cold war &
the counter
culture<br>
(punk, new
wave, rap ...)
who became
tired of
mainstream
music industry
and <br>
helped its
popularity all
over the
globe. <br>
<br>
The Tape is
not a CD -
even though it
was common to
save data
& programs<br>
on tapes as it
was cheaper
than floppy
disks. In some
countries
radiostations<br>
would even
transmit
programs and
data that one
could record
at home and
play<br>
or use
afterwards
with the
personal
computer - the
tape has one
significant <br>
difference to
the CD - the
track listing.
A tape is a
linear time
line where<br>
one can't just
skip a track -
or lets say DJ
XYZ wants to
play track 5
from<br>
a tape -
that's way
more difficult
with tapes to
find the right
position than<br>
it is with
records or
CDs. By the
way, it is
possible to
save images on<br>
looptapes -
once you have
encoded the
image
information
into audio. <br>
<br>
The tape
usually is
made of a
chrome, iron
or metal
oxides/
dioxides and <br>
the data/
information is
written
in it by
organising the
metal parts
via <br>
electro
magnetic
pulses -
therefore,
tapespeed is
an important
influence <br>
on the quality
of the
information -
the faster it
runs the
closer are the
<br>
single points
of the
information on
the tape and
that again
makes them
sound<br>
better in
quality. </font><br>

In 1995 David
Chandler
released a
hand-built
series of 100
cassettes<br>
with spliced
loops marked
'open-source'.
These tapes
and their
construction<br>
method became
an underground
secret-weapon
among touring
bands in the
90s,<br>
and were given
the nickname,
the "Chandler
Loop" -
Chandler him
self has<br>
been making
and organizing
experimental
dance music in
Portland sice
the<br>
early 90's
-and there it
became really
easy to
distribute his
loop tapes<br>
all over the
states and the
world.<br>
<br>
-Tapeloops can
come in
various
lengths
depending on
the type of
loop -<br>
in general
they are
either around
235mm and
372mm.<br>
<br>
When make a
tape loop you
need to find a
cassettetape
with screws
then<br>
open it - take
out the tape
& cut a
piece from it
- remove the
rest of the<br>
the tape from
the wheels -
put the wheels
back in now,
try making
your<br>
loop with the
tape in the
case - make
sure its not
too tight and
not too<br>
loose. Best is
once you have
the loop tight
move the two
wheels a bit
so<br>
that the loop
becames again
a bit loosende
- then take
out your loop
while<br>
still holding
the two points
of your tape
together and
make a
diagonal<br>
cut - now
screw it a
little
together and
try out if it
runs - if so<br>
screw it back
together.<br>
<br>
I can highly
recommend
using a
Four-Track
recorder with
loop tapes -<br>
as you can
have 4
different
loops on one
tape - All
synced to
eachother<br>
and if your
four-track has
1 or two efx
AUX sends you
can even add <br>
outboard
effects to it.<br>
<br>
More tips
-> Record
something on
the tap you
want to loop
before cutting<br>
the loop -
like that you
can make vary
clean and
clear loops.<br>
Also
experimenting
with the erase
head and loop
tapes might
add some<br>
depth to the
sticness of
the synced
loops.</font><br>
<br>
DIGITAL LOOPS<br>
<br>
<font
color="#00aa00">A
few more
things about
digital loops
- on of my
favorite is
the gid89a<br>
or commonly
known as .gif
- it can be
used to save
layers and
trans-<br>
parancies and
so on - its
even possible
to hide .exe
scripts or php<br>
snippets in it
to manipulate
website that
allow .gif
image format.<br>
The .gif for
whatever
reason is not
very widely
supported
anymore on<br>
the web or is
converterd to
a video loop
/.webm (This
might be for<br>
some simple
statistic
reason or the
state of arts
on the web has
moved<br>
on).<br>
- Still there
remains a
certain
cultural
excitement and
hype about it.<br>
Similar like
the tape -
even though it
is long dead.
Animated gifs/<br>
image loops
are in a way
like
audio/tape
loops - they
can be like
one<br>
shot samples
but looped or
they can be
tight like the
angels
chanting<br>
in the very
beginning of
this text.<br>
<br>
A lot of
todays
information on
the internet
is organised
in loops and<br>
algoryhtms.
Adding gifs to
a feed or a
timeline -
often makes me
think<br>
of throwing
tape loops in
the river - to
feed the
infinite flow
of<br>
particular
difference
that enldless
loop of it -
the gif the
little<br>
loop of the
same with
itself - It
punches a
mesmerizing
hole to
another<br>
dimension that
stops the
endless flow
for as long as
one allwows<br>
the moment to
happen. <br>
<br>
- This is an
excerpt of a
workshop about
tape culture
and loops I<br>
came up with
