Great interview, Takahashi is a switched-on dude. The monologue is a beautiful looking and sounding bit of kit too.

 

I bet any money that when RDJ's talking about synthesizer demos, he's got Ignacio Marty in mind (sorry, I post links to this all the time, but they're so great):

 

That´s the fucking grandfather of the Tuss. Great finding, sure it´s in his 80´s demos collection.

 

Hey richard, share you full collection, you bitch!! We wanna hear

fuck me that's ace

i used to have a cdr with the mp3s of the sidstation demos that i would bang in my mum's car like 15 years ago

Yeah, it's pretty friggin cool. Not as cool as watching Devin Townsend demo some gear alongside Sandor Clegane and give birth to an entirely new sub genre of music however.

the fuck you on about

This is seriously better than half of the electronic music scene currently. Not overly complex but it feels honest and quaint while still being interesting on various levels.

I sound like a jackass. But no matter, this is groovy shit.

Finally been able to listen to the track. Really nice melodies in that one. Wonder why this is being pushed by Warp though... Did this also happen with the Syrobonkers interview? Can't remember.

must make some time to get through the interview even though i probably won't understand anything of it.

maybe some new release/synth or announcement at summer namm w/korg or something? didn't he push cheetah at some big synth fest last time? summer namm starts tomorrow

Richard's son drops μ-ziq's name around 2:36. Another new artist trying to ride Mike's coat tails...

What's with the upside-down 8s?

Haha, I was wondering that too.

the y's & j's got me :)

Jump to 12:30.

Most likely an unpopular opinion, but korg funk 5 is potentially my favourite RDJ tune since Syro*

That main synth hook is proper addictive. Big love for when it harmonises with itself half way through the track.

Really heavy trains must start slowly before leaving the station and building up speed...

Are they bringing the Nightmail ?

fucking jr and this shit again...

it's referenced in the interview and then the link tells you what it is!?

!!!!!

What could it be?

I've got two simple piano pieces for simple minds to understand the difference of microtuning (or quarter or semi tuning that is) and I find this fascinating how polarised opinions people have about this. Some of them love it immediately (like I do) while the others immediately hate it (don't know why, you tell me), I was joking about microtonality as being the future but this could be actually the case. Oh and if you want to find some microtonality in AFX musicks, you should check The Tuss releases. :)))))))))
