These are a few tracks from my 'Lagrange Point 6' project that are 'extra' or not being released in the usual manner for whatever reason.

Traum (Dune Mix)

JaMuary 24- the aim to create a piece of music (no matter how short or incomplete it is) for as many days as I can during the month.

Most Jamuarys are incomplete or just the start of an idea so I upload them as public here but they are private on my proper Soundcloud page @trevb111 unless completed.... and Ive put them in a playlist you can find here on.soundcloud.com/QUFqo :)

Seven ocarinas playing a single note each to make a wash, then carved out some texture using a looper patch in VCV Rack with a band-pass filter driven by an LFO.  Three separate instances played together.

Day 26 - Clockwork
- have a metronome or a clock be part of the song

This one turned dark pretty fast. Initially, I wanted to make a dreamy soundscape to get lost in but instead it became this monstrous thing with a terrible ending.
Time is a pretty brutal concept.  xD

Lyrics (in no particular order):


    Killing time
    Robbing time
    Suspend time
    Wasting time
    Losing time
    Gaining time
    Spending time
    Stop time

Day 26 - Clockwork

Once more, the battery powered portable studio strikes back. Behringer Neutron doing the sound generation, Korg SQ1 some very basic sequencing and controlling the bucket brigade delay of the Neutron. Output sent to the Zoom MS-70CDR and recorded live directly to the Tascam digital recorder. Oscillators, LFO and attenuators adjusted live to conduct this electronic orchestra.

Snow Desert part II

A crowdsource experiment. The instruments were voted for drums, bass, synth, pad, sfx/extra on Mastodon. The results were:

Roland CR-78 for drum machine
Roland JX3P (substituted at the last minute for the modern repro Roland JX03)
Roland D50 for synth
Solina String Ensemble for pads/strings
Yamaha PSS680 Musicstation for sfx

Roland CR78 programmed with a Boss FS5U, but otherwise song mixed and played live (along with arpegiator for the bassline). Various midi devices (merge, split, midi to sync) and a bunch of guitar pedals (like Boss SL20, Pigtronix Echolation, Red Panda Particle, Boss compressor, Mutron octave divider etc were also used, fed into a Boss BX16 mixer, onto 15ips 10" tape. No computer or DAW all the way to tape.

Social Warmup

Canadian Polyglot and polymath living in North Carolina, Francois is Head of Dion Research by day, & artist, maker of instruments & effects, musician, photographer & sound engineer by night.

His interest in music started at a very young age when he studied classical piano and electronics, both of these things would be quite influential on his future work.

He started composing electronic music as a kid in the early 80s and experimenting with sampling on an Apple //e, and would later use the Amiga, Apple IIgs and on the PC, the Gravis Ultrasound wavetable soundcard, and would publish soundbanks for it. Today, most of his music is done without computers, on modular synths and effects built by him, along with some commercial synths and effects.

From 1988 to 1997, he hosted a show on electronic music from its beginning in the early 20th century all the way to modern electronica, and the history of it and the technology that enabled it. He also did a stint at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and Videoway / Videotron in Montreal.

In parallel with that, he would continue releasing music through various media, including digital media before MP3 files (through MP2 and ADPCM WAV files on Hyperreal, IUMA etc). In those 30 years to now, he has produced an average of ~1 album (EP or full) a year
