Synthesizers

Deuxième extrait des 1h d'enregistrement d'hier.
Toujours avec l'ARP 2500 et certains périphériques. Aucune séquence ne c'est envolé durant cette session car, le séquenceur est pour le moment en plein nettoyage aux niveaux de ces contacts.
Pour plus tard je l'espère :)

"Quasar"

"3C 273 is the brightest quasar in the heavens, and consequently a very famous object in astrophysics. At a distance of about 2×10^9 light-years, 3C 273 is located in the far cosmological background of the southern extension of the Virgo galaxy cluster. It is very bright across all wave bands from radio to gamma. Quasar 3C 273 was discovered in 1959 as a radio source by the 3. Cambridge Radio Survey (3C)."

"One of the most striking features of 3C:273 is a single jet, emerging from the galactic centre - extending 23" to the SW. Structures and changes inside the jet have been well studied through all wavelengths."

"New investigations on the central black-hole of 3C 273 was undertaken by ESO´s Very Large Telescope GRAVITY Collaboration, which were published in 11/2018. As the result, the supermassive black-hole has an inferred mass of about 300 million solar masses (2.6 ± 1.1 ×108 MSo). In addition, the radius of the accretion disk was determined as 150 ± 40 light days, or 0.13 pc."

"Full Cold Moon"

The full moon phase in December is the longest lasting of all the other full moon occurrences, it happens during the time of Winter Solstice, when the night time period is longer compared to the day-time, and when the nights in the Northern hemisphere are cold - so named the "Cold Moon" or "Full Cold Moon".

"Jupiter"

Image: front panel of the Roland Jupiter 4, Model JP-4.

The Roland Jupiter 4, available in 1978 to 1981, it was a 4 voice polyphonic analog synthesizer. The JP-4 was known for a raw electronic tone, a sound found very similar to their 1970s SH model instruments. The JP-4 was Roland's first polyphonic instrument, and also, the first model to incorporate an arpeggiator feature.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Original RSF Expanders demo Home remixed with some new lines made with the XILS PolyKB 2, the most close plugin to the real thing, just a fun with a melodic line, pads and some fx.

RSF Kobol expanders home edit

A little fun demo just made with the Waldorf Edition, PPG wave 2 mainly and some drum sound with Attack (minimal), finally some sounds passed through D-pole. Maybe a little traditionnal! Enjoy!

PPG Waldorf wave legacy

Hello, my name is Markus, I was born in 65 Geneva Switzerland but my origins are german, so some life time past. 
I learnt piano with different teacher, and  throught conservatoire, and between on my own using my ears.

Enjoyed a lot tweaking keyboards and synths throughout the eighties, were I used a long list of gear, bought and sold for a part.
 like listen to the music from that time and before, favourite seventies, and eighties.

 then also played here and there with different regular pop and rock bands.
 
Couldn't stop to love great Synthesizer, and I experimenting with several machines, 
even when most of them became a lot more virtual today, it was fantastic to get back to all these old clones of unaccessible hardware.

However this my music under the name of horizons that should be less common even if I try to keep a harmonic, like melodic edge along with some more experimental investigations. 
I recorded or composed on time, there is an album called "Dreams of the Maiden", you can check or listen to. 

Thanks for your visit

These are soundbits and glimpses from it, good to listen on the road if you like smooth, or  this also meant to relax. enjoy!

 I have also a blog talking about music and essential albums, with infos and links - but this will be in french. thanks

In another area I spend my time teaching music and the Piano, 
hereby you can also find my french blog related to Piano learning

Musiques à écouter est un blog sur les albums et les musiques qui m'ont marqué, vous aussi, venez et partagez!
Des infos, des videos, et des liens concernant chaque sujet. A bientôt.
