BadRectifier's #GlowInTheDarkMonster

Loving the dark notes. An original composition by Peter Lount of BadRectifier.band played on a Moog Sub 37 phatty Limited Edition Bob Moog synthesizer. It's an epic music instrument. It does the dark notes very well. Played on the very Moog Sub 37 pictured with this sound cloud track image.

Nobody expected the Roland System-1m to enable one to generate such microtonal sounds so proficiently. It's eerie. It's epic. It's deeper than deep. It originates from the depths of the darkest most horrifying places in your brain stem to explode harmony out of existence while having sense and structure to it. 

The microtonal sounds are generated from the Pitch ControlVoltage+Gate dial on a Roland Aira System-1m within a digital echo chamber, full reverb, full delay with full delay time (sometimes adjusted). This includes all the ghostly voice, chanting type sounds.

Deep notes creating deep waves generated with a Moog Sub 37 custom patch with arpeggio sequence playing most of the notes with occasional highlights by the player... driving an Akai MX20 drum machine on it's stock patches... basic pattern explorations. The image is a spectrograph of a part of this piece of music near the beginning. An original composition by Peter Lount of BadRectifier.band.

Experimenting with the Roland VT-03 Voice Transformer. Way too much fun and totally awesome results.

A 2nd "Bad Rectifier's Glow In The Dark Monster" take, different pitch. Too much fun.

Got the Intellijel Metropolis step sequencer and the other gear installed in the rack. Took the Metropolis for a spin driving the Roland System-1m and it's a hoot! Loving it. Very exploratory... kinda science fiction sounding... cool... Having way too much fun.

Straight from the heart of darkness itself, the void where sound doesn't propagate, comes this dark and energetic monstrosity melody if you know how to find it in the wave overtures curving curvatures through the space between your ears activating your neuronal electrical hormonal drug releasing systems of cells that make you an illegal lab in your brain, a methodic  melody dialing in pleasure to behold. Listen. Crank the volume... or as they say, #pumpUpTheVolume. 

Straight Outta BadRectifier's Glow In The Dark Monster

The Mutant Bassdrums in BadRectifier.systems GlowInTheDarkMonster emit an awesome sound when driven by an Intellijel Metropolis and processed by a Roland System-1m. The GlowInTheDarkMonster is growing its range of capabilities each week.

OPTIMISTIC NIHILISM: The fact that life is empty and meaningless doesn't mean we that we can't enjoy ourselves. 

"To play a wrong note is insignificant, but to play without passion is unforgivable." - L.V. Beethoven

Two Roland Aira System-1m units driven by the two channels of the Arturia BeatStep Pro. One at 64 steps per loop and the other at 16 steps per loop in the middle that comes and goes. The chain represents the notes in a step sequence.

The defining movement moment. No  it is not a stiff joke, it's not that bad really, bad as in BadRectifier.systems, We Fix The Bad In Systems.

I totally fail at 4'33" for two reasons, this piece is 4'43" long, and it doesn't have much silence, if any.

Hoping you had a #SpookyBoo!!! Live set style, no edits (ok fade in/out), one take.

My nascent modular and non-modular friends... started in the late spring... with a Teenage.engineering OP-1... followed soon by the Roland Aira System-1m, the four Roland Aira FX units (each with front panel effect and six virtual eurorack modules for a total of 28 eurorack modules in one 84HP row!), an Intellijel Metropolis, HexInverter Mutant Bassdrum 808 kicks, more eurorack modules... TipTop Z3000mkII, MakeNoise Maths, tons of Synthrotek kits, ... with WMD Gamma Wavesource and two Moog Mother-32 pure analog bliss on order... www.facebook.com/1416018635393736…1481853765476889.

I've never used just about all my Roland gear in a piece... the only Roland musical thingi I didn't use was the Aira FX Scooper! Oh, nor the PLUG-OUTS... oh and only one System-1m in use this time... oops, didn't use the VT-03 Voice Transformer... so most of my Roland gear is in play.

I used my Roland Aira System-1m, Aira FX units Demora delay, Torcindo distortion and the always wonderful BitRazer for the crushing of bits; not to forget the incredible venerable RD-100 stage piano and the majestic new JDXi, with a nice arpeggiation by the classic JP-8000.

In addition two Moog units are at play in the piece, a Moog Sub 37 doing it's own arpeggiated sequence, and a Moog Minitaur being driven by the venerable Roland RD-100 stage piano via Midi Din. A few other Eurorack modules are also used aside from the one's mentioned above.

Mutant Waves pour out of my cerebral cortex and all places where harmony may not ever have existed and may not yet. Modular Synthesis to melt your brain.  Mathematically all music exists at all times across eternity time, so when one "creates" music one is really exploring an existing mathematical space of possibilities and threading a fabric across spacetime in the audio domain. An excursion into this possible existence space of music and sound extracts these mutant waves into your brain. We are not responsible for your brain melting into new possibilities, but we do encourage you to take a leap into the realms of the possible and explore.
