Some rock stars would just waste money on a swimming pool…

There are at least 5 permanently installed Musical rumble strips built in highways around the world. Workers neglected to include the strip thickness in their spacing calculation, resulting in a mis-tuned William Tell Overture.

It would be an interesting to undertake the design the simplest recognizable pulse sequence one could temporarily install with glue on strips.

Moby the Punk Rocker

I didin’t know much about Moby, had heard he was some sort of EDM guy.

I got a look at his AutoBioPic “Moby Doc” (Trailer) where he doesn’t talk about his equipment, though he mentions his first remix hit incorporates the Laura Palmer theme from Twin Peaks.
The movie is mostly a personal look at his life-career where he discovered happiness was inversely proportioned to his success.

Snakefinger, damn so good. He only has forgoten his cyberdeck

Robert Johnson - 32-20 Blues

Quite the opposite to the electronic music that Zynthian may invoke. Robert Johnson at his best (probably - very little recorded material available of this influential blues singer / guitarist).

Incredible to believe this is just one man and his guitar recorded live in one take. No effects or overdubs in 1938! Pure brilliance.

There is a Keith Richards recording (a bit slower and extended) which is pretty good. Richards is quoted as being surprised it was just one player when he first heard a recording of Johnson. You can forget that members of mega successful bands like the Stones tend to be pretty good musicians.

Not a specific song but rather an excellent youtube Channel.

MrWzzzW has a playlist with a lot of some of my favorite bands: the Residents (his collection is so huge !), Tuxedomoon, Snakefinger, Captain Beefheart, Chrome, Primus …

I don’t know why anyone complains about Zynthian preset handling. At about 9’10" Tim just moves one synth out of the way and puts another in its place. Simple!

Bravo :wink:

Sorry about the shameless self- promotion …

I owed you this one @wyleu

The Zynthian was used for Piano Layer overdubs on this session. The Kronos was in my truck, so I used the 1/8 stereo Line out… lol…into a Focusrite 18i20…into Logic,…to aiff…then into Pro Tools at the studio.

Linuxsampler played a custom multi layer sfz of the Kronos German Grand layered with DX Full Tines. Pm me if you are interested in the sfz edits.

I sampled it using Chicken Translator pro to Kontakt format, then converted it to sfz, then edited the sfz file.

The bells are a Kronos preset with flanger instead of chorus. The brass came from Sampletank. The pad was from a Prophet 6.

Enjoy! Sam

Wouah :astonished:!

A bit ironic I confess, but please do not see any offens here, it’s just because for me, Zynthian is the best all in one musical gear. Portable and so convinient for playing/jaming alone.

And even if this is not my favorite style of music, result is pretty good. Congratulations.
