Owen Sands - Cyclic Hypnosis (Original Mix) - [Wall Music]

Freeform (with a few snips and a reverse) 3003 sequenced by my System-100M's 182 module from the Majestic 70s—somehow I've held on to this Roland treasure my parents pulled from our San Francisco music store (St. Regis and Leuenberger). #thanksmomanddad #stillworksperfectly

Couldn't resist some hard limiting to balance out the wide ranging levels...

The NOISE you are hearing periodically is added via the MIXER section for a percussive and thickening effect—“stirrin’ the soup,” as they say… jazz brush playing; I pretty much let it run throughout.

Next time the camera will be running.

Boomstar 3003 Meets System-100M's 182 Module

Unadulterated 5089 multi-tracked smoothness (apart from a touch of normalizing). Another snippet from the forthcoming MSR Boomstar opus.

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.

Neumann and St. Regis are at it again—Boomstar Modular 3003, 4075, 5089, and AMP modules being the focus this new year.  Pittsburgh Modular brilliantly supplies the rest of the heat.  An Ike and Tina showstopper "Up" starts things out—then we jettison the roof of convention.

Right Said Drone

Faux stereo Boomstar Sensei/Circles sequencer fun. Reversing the left side created this Atlanta Rhythm Section wurlitzer piano mood, and the non-evolutionary highland mutations continued from there—see I had a design in mind, and gave a sh!te. Amazingly warm-blooded beast this Modstar creature. No Boomstar 4075 on this one, and sorry 'bout the shocking conclusion.

A Brief Shuffle in Time

Sensei Hybrid (transitional) featuring GRAINY CLAMP-IT (has that shimmery, slithery, slippery vibe) bouncing  against our frequency modulated (drastically at times), discrete, DC-coupled, sparkling OSCILLATION module. 5089, 4075, 3003, SEM filter (the last in the list getting the feed from the second output of the 4075), and SciFi modules factor in heavily. Sequenced by our CHARCOT CIRCLES.

Last iso bassline for a while...

SciFi - Ringmoditations

After months of hard work, I am proud to present my greatest masterpiece. This song has so much meaning to me & will always be one of my most special tracks. Sometimes in order to find greatness within your soul, you must see the darkest parts of life & overcome many obstacles & rise above it all. 
In Music We Trust, Forever & Always. 
Enjoy!

Universal Language

First Boomstar 5089 production unit in action... this be the alternative composite take with a bit of layering and reversing of koo bits here and there.  Apart from that adulteration, not EQ, VSTs, or VIPs on the list.  Pure through-hole, discrete analog synthesizing, in a friendly, funktified, fun, STUDIO ELECRONICS desktop package.  And yes the rack kit smashes two together nice, or just drop one in by its lonesome.
