What Is Real? (prod. chillingcat)

Tough, inventive, no-nonsense genre-bending hook-laden guitar-based multi-ethnic dance-music, that flouts convention.

SoundCloud's data compression scheme... wow.

The foundation for this distinctly Analogian adventure is the Boomstar 3003 crunch 'n chunk sound, warmed-up nicely by Slate Digital's "Virtual Tape Machine." I intended to accent it merely with the ATC-1-ish cross-mod vocal sound lead work (way back in early Sept.), which re-interprets my uber-talented friend Grecco Burrato's rich and rootsy guitar solo at 2:29 in my CODE-filtered Theriot offering (http://studioelectronics.com/assets/Audio/CODEfilteredTheriot.mp3), but I kept getting pulled back into the power and poetry of the B*s circuits and smashing performance-centered feature set.

The jazzy polyphony heard at the beginning after my Uncle Mario's chuckles (more from him later, much more), is all Boomstar 5089, arranged on piano and tracked one note at a time—credit DP8's split notes feature; patience and persistence make pretty, and we are off to the races: the twin herculean pillars of 3003 rhythm and lead making friends along the way with slidey, glidey, echoey, multi-tracked B* 5089 / 1970's slippery, synthy goodness, B* 4075's punchy percolated arpeggiations, square-waved octaved finger bass, B* SE-80's rim shots, tablas, claps, 70's and 80's session snares, tuned "Tubaleans" kicks-basses, major toms, SEM  hi hats and crashes, all of which thins out dramatically at 3:06 for the 5089/SE80/4075/SEM bass and beats break—picked up by those 5089 faux muted guitars—commencing the beginning of the culmination, or so it seems.  Really, the show is just getting started with the 5089 holding court with its sweet and foxy leads on the run—love that "The Sweet" joint, a radio rediscovery one schoolday morning which revitalized and repurposed the back nine of “The Talking Booms,” called again upon the ARP-peggiations, Glam Synth drive, and clearing the mind for the late 99 year Oracle at Cleveland: Uncle M.

What are we learning?  What are we storing up inside?

Thanks for the listening and read,
Marc A. Theriot St. Regis - Thanksgiving-ish 2014

p.s. Apart from DP and various audio plugins—my DAW was my friend—everything is Boomstar, apart from a backwards piano snippet from a rejected short film score of mine, and the snappy kick drum, hit by our Fox mic pre, and wrapped with several 4075 and SE80 kicks, when things get Marley.  Oh yes, and brilliant cousin Eve (Capretta) Rouveral does the marvelous Mario mining.

Stepping out with CS-80

An autumn afternoon at the Champs de Mars by the Eiffel Tower in Paris. A red balloon makes its way through the September skies towards the infinite, across the oceans of water and time, through the distances of geography, dancing its dance over the clouds and painting a rainbow in the gray skies of autumn.



Produced by Grecco Buratto, Marconi de Morais and Sandro Feliciano. 

Recorded by Benny Faccone and Mixed by Moogie Canázio.

O Amor a Voar (G. Buratto)


Vai pelo céu 
Passeando no azul 
Vai voando rumo ao infinito 
Vai de encontro ao sol 
Num ballet pelo ar 
Meu amor a voar pelo mundo

Vai pelo mar 
Navegando ao léu 
Sobre as ondas do tempo, invisível 
Uma gota de dor 
Uma nau de papel 
Uma lágrima encheu o oceano

De beleza, de cor 
De tristeza, de amor 
Das lembranças que trago comigo
Das canções ao luar 
Teu olhar, Praia Mar 
De te ver num espelho sorrindo

Corações a pulsar 
Um balão a bordar 
O teu nome nas nuvens de outono
Corações a brincar 
Um balão a pintar 
Um arco-íris no céu de setembro

Foi meu amor 
Ganhou asas, voou 
Foi buscar o seu próprio destino 
Navegando no azul 
Sobre as ondas do mar 
Uma lágrima cai , infinita

É a beleza, é a dor 
A tristeza e a cor 
Das lembranças que levo comigo 
Caminhar ao luar 
Na cidade , o lugar 
Onde tudo teve seu início

Corações a pulsar 
Uma nau a bordar 
O teu nome no mar de Santiago
Corações a brincar 
Um balão a pintar 
Um arco-íris no céu de setembro 
Corações a amar 
E o amor a voar 
Pelos céus de Paris nesse inverno

Learned from a youtube video. Just had to learn it because it's such a great tune. It revolutionized my understanding of chords on the Irish BC accordion.

Metsakukkia - Finnish Waltz in Amin

Feel good vibes, the kind that'll walk you through a windows 95 installation without loosing your shit.  Where was thing track when it was most needed? 
- This is the backing track to one of the first in-house videos I did for Modal. (Covering Modal VST).

Tutorial

Having fun layering an assortment of patches I dialled into my 2004 Studio Electronics Omega 8..  

I have always liked the array of multi-mode filters this synth has to offer - it adds a great deal more sonic potential to an often overlooked and very capable analog beast.

NB:  Although it might sound like it, no phasers were used in this recording.. what you are hearing is copious use of the superb band-pass and high-pass filters in the Omega 8 being modulated by the LFOs.
