Deborialis – Movement 2 from DINOSAUR

This is a piece that I did to show the capabilities of the Jurassic Park studio that I set up while instructing at College in 1994. It is part two of the three movement DINOSAUR series.

There are a lot of Vintage toys in the DINOSAUR series I will give a description of the gear involved. This was all Multi-tracked on a One Inch Eight track MCI machine from the late sixties or early seventies. It was mastered to Sony Digital PCM betamax tape.

The drum parts were done first after a sync track was laid. They involve a tr606 and a cr8000 linked to each other. The trig outs were sent to a Buchla 200 for bass drum and other control over the audio outs of the two drum machines. The strings are a combination of a Synclavier II System and a Kurzweil K-2000 trying to imitate a Vangelis cs80. The high pitched pad is also Synclavier. The falling and dipping windy sound is ARP2500 affected by the volume of the drum track and randomness. A tb303-like track was also added but it is really the ARP2500 again being controlled by a real tb303. I really miss my tb303 these days but back when I had it I mostly used it as a good CV/Gate sequencer. I didn’t use its normal sound as much. At the middle point the Synth Solo comes in. I used a Casio Midi Sax for the solo to control the k2000. Breath did filter and also controlled the delay length live. Volume as you can hear is a little hard to control but okay…. someday I’ll compress the track a little, but until I can land my hands on an eight track one inch reel to reel I’m stuck with this master. I did accidentally erase part of the solo and had to punch in another. See if you can find it. Also I didn’t like the brightness of the sound so I recorded the solo half speed and octave down, and then sped it back up to normal speed to double the frequency and add more brightness. Finally there is a low bass throb at the end that is done with a Steiner Microcon just playing the knobs w/o external control. There probably is a Sequential Pro-1 in here too but I forget what it is doing, possibly just acting as a controller/sequencer.

 It takes a while to build but all the cool stuff happens once the solo comes in. Even though this is mixed to be played loud, this has some low bass from the Buchla and Synclavier acting as bass drum. Keep the EQ flat while listening. Big Bass at the end.

This is Marvin Gaye's masterpiece "What's Going On" with just the main vocal and as little else as i could filter out. One vocal track in each ear. This is part of a remix series where i take the master tracks and hope to make people hear the song differently after thousands of radio plays in the background of their lives.

This is an original version of the piece where I intro everyone to Snorkles The Wonder Pug. Sorry about the poor recording first day with a new recorder, but I normalized it a little for clarity sake. and YES Snorkels the Wonder Pug has a twitter account. @snorkelsthepug

I did this for a Hank Williams compilation that never panned out. Enjoy my theremin version and ps- the false end is the best.

This is something i did with a lot of layers on Ableton at a cafe one afternoon. Reminds me of a certain Mongolian documentary and a few other films.
