Gypsy Cry

after yesterday's experimentation with the roland scooper i managed to do something a little more useful and intentional. this is a piano sample, again from the qu-bit nebulae, into the roland scooper in addition to some "dry" layers from the nebulae and filter modulations.

the eurorack-as-sample-maniuplator is really maturing and i find i can create exactly the sounds i'm imagining on this system. the benefit of happy accidents and patching experimentation makes it all more engaging and worthwhile.

This week we discuss Fame. Andy Warhol may have said “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes” but he never predicted we’d all want our 15 minutes every day.

Il Posto (1961) by Ermanno Olmi.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Il_Posto

The film tells the story of Domenico, a young man who forgoes the latter part of his education when his family is in need of money. Applying for a job at a big city corporation, he goes through a bizarre series of exams, physical tests and interviews. During a brief respite from the tests, he meets Antonietta, a young girl who has similarly forgone her schooling when in need of money to support herself and her mother. Through the course of this meeting, they have coffee at a local cafe, discussing the issues of their lives and their ambitions. Becoming attracted to her, they are quickly separated when they land jobs in different departments.

This Is Spinal Tap (1984) by Rob Reiner
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_Is_Spinal_Tap

"This Is Spinal Tap" shines a light on the self-contained universe of a metal band struggling to get back on the charts, including everything from its complicated history of ups and downs, gold albums, name changes and undersold concert dates, along with the full host of requisite groupies, promoters, hangers-on and historians, sessions, release events and those special behind-the-scenes moments that keep it all real.

Next week: The Square (2017) by Ruben Östlund
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Square_(2017_film)

110 - This Is Spinal Tap Review

Duo boy band playing sound collages, composed with a random mix of bedroom electronics, noise, off-key pseudo-jazz and non-erudite classical studio improvisations, resulting in some kind of povera experimental world music.

Cachopou are Juanma Lodo and David Quiles Guilló.
