great set - really impressive, quite intense in places ... I listened offline last night, I swear it was downloadable ...

Really good piece Todd, not sure where to comment, much inspiration.

Every day is a new discovery on the Buchla Music Easel.  This time a little retro electronica.  This was recorded directly from a new BEMI Music Easel.

Tangerine Easel

Here is the set of Buchla Music Easel duet improvisations.  The first piece in the performance was a for solo waterphone and can be found here:

Todd Barton and Bruce Bayard performing as the duet, Control Voltage Therapy, begin another concert series at the Schneider Museum of Art. The series continues their exploration of space as a compositional tool, this time, expanding the quadraphonic sound into all four galleries of the Museum.  Besides the Buchla Easel: Electric Music Box, Barton and Bayard will be exploring other acoustic instruments beginning this Friday with the waterphone.

Eclectic current – The rumoured death of reality

UNTIL DAWN

Rocktober day and track 24

it just starts, goes on and then stops.

The composition is definitely not finished. The synths come together at one point (tonal), which causes a weak spot. I normally experiment until I find the strong point or chance of such a fragment, but that would take too much time rn, I had to deliver 😄
Also the drums, ooh, they just go on 😆
So, I wonder if this will draw my attention later this year (or next! Time FLIES!).

24 Heartbeats of Small Bodies

This is more of a teaching piece than a polished single-pass performance. It is merely better audio of the final piece in my Easel Ambient Palette Patch seen here: https://youtu.be/gWAso1vc7rM

Down The Rabbit Hole

composer, performer, lecturer and analog synthesist who is endlessly fascinated by and exploring sound...
