The League of Automatic Composers

Just got my League of Automatic Composers anthology from alku. Awesome packaging, wooden usb drive with tons of music. If you aren't familiar with the League, read this. The League and later the Hub were pioneers in early computer music, with an emphasis on networked devices and interaction. This is proper nerdy stuff, and a big influence on some of my work.

DANCING Pt. IV with E-Squared 4-25-09 at 529

This Saturday, Eric Archer will be joining us with his buddy and performing as E-Squared for a crazy diy techno dance party! These guys are really interesting, and Eric has documented some of the incredible projects he's made on his site. Here's a video from Handmade Music up in Brooklyn on 4.16.09.

As always, Judi Chicago will be performing and then presiding over the freaking crazy ass dance party!

My Friend just realized he had this video up on youtube, but hadn't made it public. Nice little recording and good quality.



Tonight we're playing with Themselves at 529 in East Atlanta.

Next week is going to be a busy one...

Tons of stuff going on next week in recompas land. First, next Wednesday, April 8th, I will be presenting the Voice of Saturn stuff at the Dorkbot Atlanta meeting. I'll be joined by Scott from Curious Inventor who will be showing off some other projects of his, including the stribe1. Also presenting will be Beth Millikan, talking about Freeside Altanta, a non-profit hacker space they are trying to setup.

Then Thursday at 529, recompas will be playing with Themselves (cue immature joke). Should be a really cool show, I've been into Themselves for quite some time, and I think Chris Devoe will be djing the night! You can get your tickets from Ticket Alternative.

Voice of Saturn Synth/VCF on vacation

The Voice of Saturn Synth and Voltage Controlled Filter are up at Vacation Boutique in the ATL. I've also been talking with Kristin, one of the owners, about doing some custom art for units sold at the boutique. If you are in town, and want to try 'em out, head on over.

Voice of Saturn VC Filter released

Voice of Saturn Voltage Controlled Filter from CuriousInventor on Vimeo.

The VoS VC Filter is based off of a CEM3372 4 pole low pass filter chip, complete with 2 inputs (each with a vca) and a vca on the output. Lots of modulation possiblities. his first limited run of 50 will include the super fun joystick, which is completely modular.

I'm really happy that we've finally been able to get this out the door. Its a lot of fun to play with, and sounds great with the rest of the modules. More details, pricing, etc, here.

recompas <3's homemade lofi psych

The other day I stumbled upon a great blog, homemade indie lofi psych that, as the name suggests, posts all sorts of rare, and unheard music in those genres. I sent the guy that runs the site some recompas stuff, and they've been showing us some love lately. Great blog, I highly recommend checking it out.

In other news: The VoS VCF test pcb run came in yesterday, if all goes well, we'll be releasing kits very, very soon. I'm excited. Also, recompas will be opening up for Themselves at 529 in East Atlanta on April 9th. flyer to come soon.

Voice of Saturn CEM Filter

Coming soon - The Voice of Saturn Voltage Controlled Filter. We're currently finalizing the first version of the PCB, which should be sent out for manufacturing in a few days. The filter is based around a cem3372 vcf chip, the same chip found in the Sequential Circuits Prophet 600. I'm particularly excited about the first 50, as they will have a nice joystick controller built in (if we can find more, we'll make more with them).

sound samples coming soon...
