MAN PARRISH stood at
the foundation of
Electro, Hiphop and
Freestyle
in the early 1980s.
As influential as
the likes of
Kraftwerk, Arthur
Baker, Afrika
Bambaata and YMO he
is truly an electro
pioneer.
Growing up in 1970s
New York he schooled
himself in the
arcane
techniques of
synthesis and
created a list of
bona-fide electro
and
hiphop classics.
Filling the airways
of our youth with
sounds the world had
never
heard before,
he would inspire
many of us to pursue
a 'career' as
an electronic
musician.
SHADOW WOLF hooked
up with MAN PARRISH
in Florida via
cyberspace and
asked him some
questions on how it
all started.
If you are not
familiar with MAN
PARRISH check out
some of his tracks
below and listen and
learn! Let them play
in the background
while you
are reading the
interview for an exhilarating
media experience!
Heatstroke
- One of his first
tracks was the
soundtrack for a gay
porn movie, somehow
it ended up being
played in the New
York clubs
and became the
initiator for his
classic debut album.
Six
Simple
Synthesizers -
Merging the spine
chilling mind
shivering
opera voice of Klaus
Nomi with Man's
synthesizer
futurism.
Boogie
Down Bronx -
An absolute huge
electro-proto
freestyle/hiphop
banger with Freeze
Force on the mic.
Hip
Hop Be Bop (Don't
Stop) - This
track is believed to
be the origin
of the term 'hip
hop' as a music
style
How did you start
producing
electronic music
in the 1970s
exactly?
Marijuana.
And I'm not
joking...LOL Back
in those days we
used to smoke a
lot of weed. I
can't anymore, it
makes me paranoid
but back then, I
Barely
breathed oxygen.
My face was
attached to a
water bong 24
hours 7 days a
week.
In those days you
would smoke pot
and listen to what
they called "head
music"
which was not
quite like ambient
music but more on
the electronic
side.
Some of it was
rhythmic, but it
was based on
trippy sounds that
would enhance
your high.
Due to the lack of
"head music"
albums (remember
in those days
everything
was on vinyl) I
knew a little
about synthesizers
and wondered if
there was
a way I could make
"trippy" music
myself and listen
to it after I
smoked weed.
My neighbors would
totally freak out
from the sounds
coming from my
apartment door.
They probably
thought I was
landing an alien
spaceship in
there, these were
not sounds that
you would normally
hear from the rock
&
roll bands on a
stereo.
So basically I
have marijuana to
blame for my
interest in
electronic music!
I also went on a
very deep mission
to find other
experimental and
electronic
musicians. In New
York they had the
Donnell Music
Library and the
library at
Lincoln Center
which had audio
recordings. I
would search for
electronic and
obscure records
and listen to a
lot of
experimental
synthesizer music
which
basically had
drones and blips
and bleeps.
I figured if I was
getting into
electronic music,
I should
definitely know
the roots of all
this. I would like
to say at this
point anybody who
is
interested in
doing electronic
music REALLY
should study the
background of
this music going
back into the
1950s when it
first started.
That way they
would have a very
good solid
foundation for
creating music
today.
I eventually
wounded up taking
a course at a
continuing
education school
learning the basic
physics of
synthesis...Manipulating
sine, sawtooth,
square-waves,
envelope
generators, ring
modulators and
things the analog
synthesizer is
made up. That was
truly an important
foundation to
create
an understanding
of the whole audio
spectrum.
The first
synthesizer I
learned this on
was the ARP 2500,
people should
google it just to
see how it looks,
it was about 4
feet high and 7
feet
long...LOL People
today try to just
grab a sample and
like the way it
sounds. I come
from an era where
we had to break
that sound down
into
waveforms and
understand the
physics and the
science behind
that.
We could recreate
sounds with
accuracy and have
total manipulation
on
shaping it into
what we heard in
our heads.
In
that time it
must have been
quite an
obscure
endeavour
making
electronic
music, like
super
futuristic,
almost
magical!?
I was always into
electronic and
obscure music as
well as modern
rock'n'roll
and pop music. But
when I heard
groups like
Kraftwerk, I
suddenly realized
the two came
together and you
could take
synthesis and make
real songs...
music molded into
an electronic
band.
I immediately knew
this was the
future of music
and in that sense,
discovering all
this indeed made
it very 'magical'.
In
an earlier
interview you once
talked about your
very first
synthesizer
you bought from
RadioShack, was it
one of those sound
science kits?
RadioShack
back in the 70s
had all these
homemade 'science
kits'. One of
them was a mini
'synthesizer' kit.
It was very basic
and rudimentary
but I
actually had to
sit there and
solder wires to
transistors and
potentiometers
and stuff like
that. Today that
would have been a
really cool geeky
thing
to do but back
then real
synthesizers were
like 5 to 10
thousand
dollars...
way out of my
price range as a
17 year old kid.
Putting together
the kit
for 20$ and
smoking pot was a
lot easier to do!
It must have
been difficult
to get your
hands on
electronic music
machines
...expensive,
cutting edge and
puzzling...how
did you learn to
use these
machines?
I learned to
use these
machines by
trail and
error. I had
some basic
synthesizer
school but I
am a true
believer in
Chaos Theory
and experimen-
tation. If
someone says
don't push the
knob past 10,
I dial it up
to 15 to
see what it
sounds like!
And I file
that away as
an interesting
effect
that I may
need to use
later.
Synthesizers
were extremely
expensive.
I'll tell you
a funny story,
this
will show you
the funny
"low" that I
went to go
through to get
a synthesizer.
The ARP 2600
came out and
was about
2000$ in those
days. It was
an incredible
amount of
money. I told
my parents I
wanted one. Of
course they
said
absolutely no
way! I pulled
my mother over
to the side
and said:
"If you don't
give me money
for the
synthesizer, I
will become a
male
prostitute and
sell drugs
until I make
enough money
to buy this".
She looked
stunned and
thought for a
few
minutes...then
turned to me
and
said "Let me
speak to your
father...".
The next day
we went
shopping for
that
synthesizer
LOL...my poor
mom!
Do
you have some
advice for any
future artists?
My
advice to
anybody doing
synthesis is
please, please,
please get
online
and take several
evenings to
study as much as
you can about
the beginnings
of electronic
music and how it
has developed.
People are lucky
today because
you have the
internet. In my
day we didn't. I
had to
physically go to
the
library and read
books. Today its
all online on
Youtube and you
can find
almost anything
with Google. If
you want to be a
really great
synthesizer
girl or guy,
record producer
or artist you
MUST study your
craft and know
your foundation
and what
shoulders you
are standing on
to create
something
new.
Don't be afraid
to beg borrow
and steal from
others because
all great
artists did that
too. Learn,
learn, learn and
never stop
learning. I am
constantly
working and
moving forward
even though you
may not see many
records that I
put out. I have
over 100
releases on my
own label on
iTunes
and all digital
outlets like
Spotify and
those sort of
things that
people
can listen to
for free or
purchase. I am
currently
working with
Steve
Bronski from
Bronski Beat
doing some
remixes of new
material.
I've worked with
everybody from
Boy George, to
Micheal Jackson,
to
Gloria Gaynoer
from the disco
days, Crystal
Waters and even
managed the
Village People
on the road for
six years. I was
learning,
learning,
learning
and still do.
Never stop or
should I say
"DON'T STOP!"
The day you stop
learning is the
day you are dead
as an artist. I
am not
a musician...I
am an artist and
that changes my
whole
perspective on
how
I approach music
and sound!
Thanks Man
Parrish!

Out
of Sync Out Of
Rhyme
(Lyrics
of 'Alleys of
your Mind' by
Cybotron 1981)
Alleys of your
Mind is the
very first
Cybotron song
and one of the
most
important/influential
dance music
tracks of all
time.
It is one of
the songs that
became a main
ingredient in
inspiring
Techno.
It came out in
1981 and was a
hit in
Detroit. It
played on the
Electrifying
Mojo show
frequently.
People now
would call
this Electro
but back then
it
was Techno
before Juan
Atkins
actually gave
a name to the
genre.
At the time
there were two
members of
Cybotron, Juan
Atkins &
Rick Davis.
Not a whole
lot is known
about the
latter. He is
an ex Vietnam
war vet and is
very eclectic.
There was a
local article
that told more
of his side of
the story this
past year
(2016) but it
is not
available
online. Bonus
points if you
can find it
Vietnam quite
possibly
influenced the
lyrics as Mr.
Davis has a
very
beautiful mind
when it comes
to processing
events and
translating it
into poetry.
Later, joined
with John
“Jon-5”
Housely on
guitar,
Cybotron went
on to create
similar
powerful
sounds on the
Enter LP which
was the first
Techno LP. It
had Clear
which is one
of the most
sampled songs
of
all time, R9,
and other
really funky
but dark
tracks that
set the stage
for
the future of
Techno
artists.
As Anthony
“Shake” Shakir
says:
"Juan (Atkins)
started it,
Derrick (May)
sold it, Kevin
(Saunderson)
had a hit,
and Jeff
(Mills)
reinvigorated
it.”
It all started
with Alleys of
Your Mind

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

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

Wrap the upper
part as
tightly as you
can over the
speakercone
Use tape or
whatever means
to attach. You
can probably
also use a
normal
(powered)
speaker if the
balloon can be
wrapped
closely to
the
speakercone.

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

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

experiment
with more then

use different

Modify the

they
can actually

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

MEMORIES" book

STORM from IN
SYNC (Not the
larval
boyband)
released in
1992 on Irdial
discs
by
many regarded
as one of the
greatest UK
techno tracks
ever
made...and I
kinda agree with that on some days....(mostly in the autumn, and only between
lunch and
light supper)
listen
to it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FENmp-fBWE
Lee
'In sync'
Purkins
himself said:
"There
are only 4
instruments in
the track -
all Roland, 2
SH-101s, 1
TR-808
and
1 TR-909.
There was no
hardware
sequencer
either.
Everything was
synched
using the drum machine triggers. The notes were recorded on the
SH-101 onboard
sequencers,
so the tune
was very
limited. Also,
one of the
SH-101s was
not
working
properly. I
could not
record the
same note
twice in the
sequencer for
some reason. You can't really set up a more basic studio
than I used
for that
track.
The track was
a production
nightmare in
reality. I am
surprised it
ever made it
to vinyl.
There is tape
noise on the
recording
where the
cassette
deck level was
way to low.
But....it does
sound like
rain. It all
went wrong
but ended up
right it
seems".
(quoted from
Discogs
comments)
Schematic-wise
it would look
something like
this:

On the road???
Playing gigs
and touring as
a DJ or LIVE
ACT?????
here are some
professional
tips for
maximum
hygiene and
survival
skilzzz:
EMERGENCY
LAUNDRY - Clothes get dirty and smelly quickly on tours and
most of the
time there is
no laundry in
sight. In your
hotel bathroom
you can wash
your socks and
garments with
shampoo. Just
put some hot
water in the
bathroom sink,
throw in lots
of shampoo,
rinse and
scrub
your clothes
and squeeze
the water out.
Do this before
you go to
sleep
(good luck if
you are all
wasted) so it
will have some
time to dry.
Hang on a
cloathing
hanger to dry.
Speed it up by
drying on a
heater
or with a
hairdryer or
trouser press
(Be carefull
though don't
electrify
yourself)
FREE SNACKS - At the hotel breakfast smuggle food back with you so
you have
free snacks
the rest of
the day,
saving money
with not
having to buy
expensive
airport/on the
road snacks.
If you have
space in your
luggage
you can bring
an empty
lunchbox with
some useful
stuff like
silverfoil
to wrap
smuggled
sausages or
boiled eggs,
ziplock bagz
for rolls,
little
containers for
sauces and
yoghurts. Why
not bring a
(small)
thermos flask
for hot coffee
or fresh
orange juice?
Be careful for
crummy
croissants
and
inquisitive
hotel staff.
EMERGENCY
EARPLUGS
- Music can be
so
freakin'loud
at festivals
and clubs
its important
to protect
your ears if
you have to
hang around
there. Like
always you
probably
forgot plugs
again, there
are a few
emergency
earplug
methods. Do
NOT Use
chewing gum, I
did this once
and the
chewing gum
molted
in the ears
and it became
a sticky
mess!!! Just
take a piece
of tissue,
napkin or
toilet paper,
make two small
wads of them,
big enough so
that they
will fit in
your ears.
Moisten them
under a tap
and put them
in your ears.
Use the upmost
hygiene
standards
doing this to
avoid ear
infection.
ELEVATOR
BUTTON TRICK
- Handy if you are in a hotel and
dont want to
bother
with people in
your vague
state
(especially in
the morning
going to
breakfast
all f*cked
up). Press the
close door
button + the
button of the
floor you want
to go. The
elevator will
take you
directly to
that
floor
without
stopping in
between
floors. This
probably
doesnt work on
any elevator
anymore, if it
would
have
worked
in the first
place at
all... but you
can always try
and look cool.
If you really
dont want to
be in the
elevator with
other people,
just take the
stairs, its
good exercise
too.
HYGIENE
- Willie Burns
sais 'Always
wash your
hands and
don't touch
your
face' to keep
yourself from
catching any
nasty
bacteria.
SURVIVAL
HOODY -
DUYNN sais "When I travel I will
always wear a
hoody with
front pocket.
Lot's of
pockets (with
zippers) are
good
especially
when you
travel with
the cheap
airlines and
you only want
to bring
handluggage.
The hood comes
in handy when
you want to
try and sleep
on the plane.
My advice
is to take a
windowseat so
you will have
an extra wall
where you can
rest your
head. Open the
ventilator a
bit so air
circulates
round and wrap
up your coat
to use that as
a pillow. Pull
the hoody over
your head and
voila. Almost
a
private
cabin...almost.

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

You got one of
those Roland
Boutique JX03,
JP08 or JU6
micro toy
synthesizers?
Make them
stand at and
angle so they
look cool and
ergonomic with
this zero
budget
Boutique-stand
tip!
WHat you need:
An old plastic
audio
cassettetape
case. Most
will work,
some cassette
tape
designs that
wanted to be
more
futuristic or
edgey won't
work.
In general the
case would
look something
like this:
______________
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
_'_
|
|
|
'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
_'_
|
|
|
'
|
|
|
|
|
|__________|___|
You got that?!
WEll thats
good because
then we are
already
halfway!
Open the case
and flip both
halves as far
as you can.
Put the front
side
horizontal on
a surface, the
inside part of
the case
resting at an
angle.
Like
this: ______________________

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

VISIONS is an
ambient
compilation on
the cult
spanish MYSTIC
& QUANTUM
records label.
It comes on
180 gram vinyl
with beautiful
full color
artwork
from artist Kilian Eng
This is the
story of a
nameless
astronaut,
drifting alone
in the vast
emptiness
of space. No
window to
return home,
although every
world he is
visiting could
be
one...A living
stasis, with
all hope lost.
All that
endures are
his thoughts
and
the fleeting
memories of
another
life... A time
when love and
hope still
remained
in his heart.
Each artist on
this album has
recorded their
own
interpretation
of this tale,
inspired by
their own
unique
experiences
and
imagination.
Combined with
you,
the listener,
they form the
complete
story.
Feelings like
loneliness,
longing and
love are often
hard to
translate into
words. Perhaps
that is why
music is so
close to our
hearts. It
resonates
within
all of us and
speaks the
words we don't
always know
how to share.
It contains
hallucinogen
tracks from
Sterre, DMX
Krew, Kettel, Alex Stark,
Segerfalk,
Elektrobopacek,
Carbon Based
Lifeforms, 36,
Vagon Brei
&
Legowelt.
Get it on the
mystic &
quantum bandcamp
page
should be
available in
some
recordstores
too if they
can be arsed
to order it...

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

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

THE
HOTTEST STUDIO
TIPS from the
worlds most
excentric
producers
SPACE
- Sound is a 3
dimensional
occurance in
space,
remember that
there is not
only left
& right
but also depth
and even up
and down.
AMBIENT
MOOD LIGHTING
- Try
different
colors of
light in your
studio at
night.
And try
different
shades of
dimmed light.
Green, Red,
Blue, Purple
or mix them
together. See
what effect it
has on your
music and
mind.
AMBIENT
FRAGRANCES
- Just as
different
colors and
shades of
light can
influence
your producing
mood, so can
smells.
Fragance oils
(mint,
elderflower
etc.)
incense, herbs
etc. Or be
like PRINCE
and make your
studio smell
like lavender.
NAMING
A TRACK
- A good track
title can be
poetry by
itself and
strengthen the
songs impact.
Just open a
random book on
a random page
and find a
snippet of
a sentence you
can use as a
title.
USE
DUB TECHNIQUES
- To make your
music feel
more alive.
Record/Rerout
your
tracks through
a mixing desk
with heavy
delay,reverb,
filter effects
attached
to the AUX
send and tweak
the knobs live
(Effects AUX,
Sweep EQ
etc.etc.etc.)
DUB is the
foundation of
techno.
BOSS
CS-2 MOVING
MUSH A
tip from
lazenbleep for
Moving Mush
Sidechaining.
Use the boss CS-2 compressor with
a filter/eq
pedal before
it on an aux
send.
You can make
some cheap ass
sidechaining
if you send it
kick and a
pad, or just
use it to
create a
filtered
moving mush
that can be
brought back
in on a track
to add weight
to your mix.
CONSULT THE
OBLIQUE
STRATEGIES
- Designed by
Brian Eno
& Peter
Schmidt in
1975
its a deck of
100 cards you
can randomly
pick if you
have a
creative
block.
Each card has
a cryptic
sometimes
ambiguous
phrase that
will help you
move on
solving an
(artistic)
dillema by
stimulating
your lateral
thinking.
Check it out
here online.
MICROFIBER
WIPES -
A tip from
POLARFOX85.
Microfiber
wipes are the
perfect way
to clean your
synths and
mixers. They
apparently
come in cool
colors such
ocean
blue, peach
orange and
lizard green.
I hope
POLARFOX85 has
more cleaning
tips
soon!
MIXING DOWN A tip from DUYNN: Mixing down a track
is always the
hardest
part... or
that's my
opinion. After
hours of
tweaking,
leveling and
eq'ing and
such your ears
get tired and
well, for me I
can't hear
straight
anymore. Leave
the track and
the next
morning when
you wake up
you poor
yourself a
cuppa
coffee / tea
and sit on it
first thing
again. In the
morning your
ears are
fresh and you
hear it best.
Alter all the
oddities that
you find
annoying.
Also listening
to good
recordings of
classical
music is good
for your
hearing.
It will rest
your ears.

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

BROTHER FROM
ANOTHER PLANET
John Sayles US
1984 *****
Cyber
Afropunk
classic.
A mute
escaped alien
slave
'crash'lands
in
1980s Harlem
New York.
Nobody knows
he is an alien
because he
just looks
like
a normal
human. But
he's got some
extra
telekinteic
special
powers, he can
read people's
minds and
repair
machines just
by touch .
While all he
wants to
do is make
sense out of
his new world
he constantly
stumbles into
problematic
situations
caused by the
stupidity of
mankind.
Meanwhile he
is hunted down
by
two space
slave hunters
who want to
bring him back
to his own
planet.
A wonderful
unique sweet
movie...perfect
to watch with
some shrooms
or trippy
weed. Some
trivia: One of
the Alien
slave hunters
is played by
the
director
himself. You
can watch the
movie here
LE ORME Luigi Bazzoni Italy 1975 ****
This movie
comes over you
like some sort
of dream wave,
like you just
popped
a bunch of
valium
tranquilizers
and are in a
dozy weird
trip, but not
a
particular
pleasant
one...Le Orme
is intensely
dark and
saddening in
some
ways. A woman
has tormenting
dreams of an
astronaut
stranded on
the moon
mixed with
foggy visions
of a strange
desolated
seaside resort
called Garma.
Slowly
approaching
the brink of
insanity she
decides to
visit the
resort
and finds
herself into
some more
puzzling weird
stuff.
Desolated
seaside
resorts are
ofcourse our
favorite.
There is a
constant
hypnotizing
silence
throughout the
movie, when
people
do speak they
almost do it
in some kind
of poetic soft
focus whisper
which
is very
soothing to
the ears.
Despite beying
a very sad
movie its also
very calming
and gentle.
Watch it here
WASTED! / NAAR
DE KLOTE! Ian
Kerkhof
Holland 1996 *****
Wasted!
stands alone
as one of the
strangest
'rave culture'
movies ever
made.
One of the
first movies
shot entirely
on crap 1996
digital
cameras (and
they
were
pretty crap
back then!) A
lot of the
footage is
saturated with
the
up most cliche
early 90s
digital movie
effects and
the camera man
uses a
lot of
horrible
'edgy'
constantly
shaking
angles. And
the
editing...well
its basically
all very
reminiscent of
a 1st year
film school
project by
some
guy that is
permanently on
drugs. But
when you
combine all
this crap
together
you almost get
some kind of
stylistic
masterpiece.
There is no
contrast of
anything good
stylewise so
after a while
you get used
to the
sometimes
headache
inducing
images.
Besides that
its all
absolutely
fantastic. The
cast is
instantly
lovable, even
though played
mostly by
extremely
amateuristic
actors (it is
after all a
dutch movie so
no surprise
here). But
somewhat
mystifying, in
the hodgepodge
of performers
there are 2 of
the greatest
dutch actors
ever: Tom
Hoffman who
plays the
awesome DJ
Cowboy, who
portrays
the
archetypically
shallow house
DJ and Hugo
Metsers III
who plays a
vapid Tony
Montana-supergangster-rip
off. The story
is pretty
simple: a
young couple
moves to the
big city
(Amsterdam)
and get lost
in the rave
scene with all
the drugs and
superficial
cliches that
surrounds this
culture.
Somehow this
has aged very
well and it
has become a
sort of cult
classic...
it is so
strange, funny
and a timeless
sneer, almost
satirical true
commentary on
the house
music scene
and its whole
ridiculous
superficial
artificial
vibe.
You can watch
it here
SHIVER David
Cronenberg
Canada 1975 ***
David
Cronenbergs
first feature
length movie
caused quite a
stir in 1970s
Canada, citing
a magazine
review:
"Crammed with
blood,
violence an
depraved
sex the most
repulsive
movie i have
ever seen".
The Canadian
parliament
even
questioned its
bad depraved
influence on
society.
Cronenberg was
actually
kicked out of
his apartment
after his
landlord found
out about all
this
and he had
some trouble
finding new
investors for
his next
movies.
Nowadays its
a decent
'retro' body
horror, a bit
amateurish but
with a fresh
nice freaky
overall
ambience. The
setting: A
luxurious
ultra modern
condo tower on
a newly
developed
Montreal
suburb island.
The problem:
This is the
place for a
parasitical
outbreak. Once
the rather big
parasitical
worm invades
the host it
begins to
suffer from an
uncontrollable
sexual desire.
Sweet!
You can watch
it here:

DEMON
SEED Donald
Cammell USA
1977 *****
1970s
Cyberpunk
classic. A
scientist
develops
PROTEUS IV: an
artificial
Intelligence
that will end
all world
problems. In
its wish to
study man's
fragile mind
and its
mysterious
body it takes
over its
creators house
and keeps
the scientists
wife inside as
hostage. For a
disturbing
purpose...Incredible
special
psychedelic
space effects
and
frightening
suspense.
PROTEUS IV's
voice
is considered
to be the
zenith of dark
A.I.
voices...full
with
compassion,
curiosity and
emotion yet
extremely
sinister.

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

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

"Pan, the
Mighty, I call
to you
the god of the
shepherds, the
totality of
the universe
--
Heaven, Ocean,
Earth, the
queen of all,
and the
immortal fire,
for all are
the limbs of
Pan.
Come, blessed
one, Jumper,
running in a
circle,
He who rules
with Horae,
Goat-footed
god:
Friend of
souls ardent
for god,
Ecstatic,
cave-dweller--
You play the
world's
harmony
with merry
flute tones,
...............
Off then,
Blessed one,
Ecstatic one,
to the
libations of
sacred virtue!
A blessed end
shall join
life;
TO the marrow
of the earth
Enthrall the
Panic terrors
Power!"

add variation
to hihats,
cowbells, add
snares etc.
This typical
chicago house
beat is mostly
ascociated
with
dancemania,
most of the
time the BOSS
DR660
drummachine
was used
This beat
would
influence
GABBER.
Most noticable
examples of
this 'clap on
the four'
rhythms
are DREWSKY's
Strobelites
(One of the
most important
chicago house
records made
imo) and the
SPASMS remix
of Robert
Armani's INVASION
which uses a
TR909 and is
almost already
proto gabber.

with centric
feeders agape
in hope its
virgin pixels
may allay
our fears.
Their leers
replete with
faltering
lilts
and unknown
rotes
shrunk at the
view of
our hulking
titan’s
palatial
nodes.
Our kinetic
event
yodels the
gist of
innovation,
proof of
metallic lords
the
hammerfisted
dawn
approacher -
its alabaster
chest,
the prominent,
crowned
amputee of
wire,
invention,
avarice,
and frail
motherboard.
And then,
a flush
composure
in the first
gear churns of
the
wistful
harbinger:
Our Gritdome
Composed.

A
short magical
realist
letter/story
in Spanish
send in by
Marcos
Arellano It
was written
after a
Smackos
Legowelt show
in
Los Angeles in
2008.
El
sol comenzaba
a bajar
… 26
dic.- 008
Con una larga
gabardina
negra y la
maleta sujeta
a la mano
derecha el
sombrío
personaje a
cruzado esa
vieja
calle
que ha visto
crecer a solo
2
generaciones.
Se a roto la
tradición de
la primera
caminando tan
solo
unos cuantos
pasos para
tomar el
taxi.
El
silencio
nostálgico que
siempre rodea
el interior de
un transporte
dorado con
blanco sofoca
tanto como
aquella ves
delirante que
izo falta el
oxigeno..
Línea-
pasaporte en
mano, maleta
sujeta
esperando el
turno para
sacar el
permiso una
hora después
policía joven
asiendo
preguntas :
¿where are you
going? ¿why
are you
going?
Go to the next
Window. la
ventana
siguiente
tenia
un letrero
pegado que
decía 12
dollrs
permiso
sellado.
Primer
mundo : primer
pregunta
¿dónde esta
esa panel? La
que me llevara
a
ese destino
deseado solo
por este día
(Atravesando
las vías
caminando
extrañamente
entre esa
estación
semi-moderna
del
trolley)
ahí esta ( la
agencia de
viajes) me
acerco y
pregunto donde
tomar mi
transporte a
lo que
replican :
camina por ese
pasillo y en
la parte de
atrás
encontraras
las
paneles . el
pasillo
paresia un
lugar en donde
solo personal
autorizado
estaba
permitido
entrar y la
parte trasera
era como un
lugar desolado
con solo 3 u
4 paneles
desde ese
punto se podía
oler observar
la valla
divisoria en
las que
junto a ellas
corren esas
mismas vías
del tren. la
noche
asechando , el
driver
esperando mas
pasajeros para
poder
emprender su
ruta monótona
, una madre
con
su hija
esperando ,
antes de salir
el driver
avisa que no
abran paradas
y que
los baños
estaban dentro
de ese centro
comercial
por los que se
puede entrar
pues tiene una
puerta trasera
rápidamente
dejo mi maleta
en la panel
para ir
a buscar el
accesorio que
necesitaba
para esa única
noche y lo
encuentro un
rollo para
tomar
fotografías
tan solo 1
dollar tomo
dos los pago y
regreso
ala panel
regresan las
personas y
emprendemos un
ya nocturno
viaje
(alrededor de
las 7).
¿cómo
se pone este
rollo? Era un
tanto difícil
puesto que la
cámara era
echa de un
plástico
deprimente
pero tenia
el poder
de tomar 4
tomas de
un solo golpe
puestas en un
solo negativo
tal que
costaba
trabajo
comprender
su situación.
Pregunta
al pasajero de
alado ¿sabes
como se pone
un rollo? No
lo supo. Al
transcurrir
las distancias
el
caminogratis
me dio la
seguridad de
abrir esa
maldita camera
para colocarle
ese rollo ;
una ves
cerrada di
clic para
asegurarme de
que la amiga
estuviese
preparada para
lo que su
lente
capturase
pero ella es
engañosa no te
lo dirá ni
tampoco dará
lo que esperas
ara lo que
quiera pero
eso te
lo cuenta el
revelado. (Es
pervertida esa
pop cam de
cuatro focos.)
Los
ojos un tanto
perturbados
por una sombra
omnipresente
