Rain Keys

Using the Orion Sound Module v1.1 for Win 10×64 VST on the Frost Piano setting soaking wet in haunting reverb. The rests were intentional in places, and in other places to change the setting. Neat sound. Better in headphones. Fun to play. Lonely, big, wet, grey, rainy.

Frank Gallagher (from Shameless) Gets It!

Frank Gallagher, from the Showtime TV show Shameless, describes the end of Racial and Religious differences.  The character can actually see into the future!  Although I think he is more current than most ignorant people realize.

highwayshuttle

This was all done on the Korg Electribe Sampler. (I haven’t given it a name yet. It’s labeled as Funk Ola1″ on the Electribe).

The track I made was influenced by the bass line in the following song by Kamasi Washington.

Ponzü: The Kitty Vulture

Gladys’s cousin, Ponzü has been stuck in a tree for 3 days.

None of us will forget Ponzü Liberation Day (December 2, 2015) of rejoicing when Ponzü was rescued from the 3 day nightmare in the tree.  VIVE LA PONZüüüü!!!!!!!!!

Another Musical Loss: Dieter Moebius Passed Away Today.

This has been a very difficult year for me musically.  Another favorite of mine has passed.  This time it is Dieter Moebius.  He is from the German electronic collective known as Cluster and Harmonia.  I have highlighted their stuff before on here:

Here’s a live concert video with Michael Rother. Wonderful music.

Here are some of my most favorite tracks:

Deluxe (Immer Wieder) – I love this track like crazy. Total genius!

Dieter Moebius was one of these electronic music pioneers who sat behind a table of boxes and wires and made some of the wildest crazy noises anyone has ever heard.  I have most of his work in my collection.  I listen to it a lot when I’m in that Kraftwerk and Can sort of musical mood.  His music inspires me to make electronic noises of my own.  I think of him fondly when I create stuff for CHOB and Hozpitality.

This year has been very painful for my musical taste.  Everyday we lose another and we are left with the crap that passes for musical entertainment that floats around today. Honor this man, and make some funny musical noises today!
