Hi all, Ain't life great when you're broke, but with a machine crammed with goodies? Yes it is. Here's a first doodle of my personal Dada Interpretation. It turns out that even I can hold a tune when using a vocoder. http://www.art-ist.nl/EWA-music/EWA-does-Dada-doodle1.mp3 Rene

Meat Grinder
by Rene 21 Feb '04

21 Feb '04

After reading the link Juhana posted a couple of days ago, I remembered how Boris used the expression Meat Grinder (or rather Fleischwolf) in other interviews. And I haven't forgotten how Dieter once claimed this in 1988 (orso): "Todays musicians (refering to the boom of producers that surfaced when House/Trance and Acid made it's way into the mainstream), are slaves of their own machines. They are trapped in the Fleischwolf and fall back to using presets instead of creating their own individual sounds." And here's a personal note/experience from me: While getting used to my new Sequencer and all the goodies (soft synths/samplers) I was heading towards becoming a slave of the software and the thousands of pre-made sounds. It's so easy to use sounds that are already -ready to go- while translating rhythm and chords from mind to sequencer. The result was that my handfull of new and old projects failed to hit that certain point where they seem to touch my soul. It was rather depressing. Having spend lot's of money on this new gear and then facing Dieter's Meat Grinder Theory... And thus I deleted all the presets from the harddrive and litteraly had to start from scratch. All I left untouched were the sounds that were infact my own. When I started to work on the music again I was stunned how fast things progressed from there. The sounds I heard were mine, and thus totally in-sync with my own heart, giving me the opportunity to re-route my focus on the music itself. So perhaps the conclusion of all this is that Boris and all other Gods of Sounds (Leeb, Fulber, Naghavi, Hutter, Schneider, Bellisario etc) are so damn right. - But even Boris doesn't change a nice preset that often. On The Eye you can hear him using the Pro 53 and the already discussed Absynth. In fact... Absynth offers some effects that remind me strongly of the Break Light Remix of The Race(!) and Topas Insect mix, or Star Breath and equal tracks... - Stay true to what resides inside you... Rene

RE: Yello Digest, Vol 12, Issue 7

As you all know Yello's music is extremely dense and full of layers that may take extended time to hear. Think of all the layers in Pink Floyd's Wall and Dark Side . . . In Classical forms like Stravinsky's Sythian Suite, or Varase's Arcania: HEAVY SHIT!!! It takes time for the mind to create new pathways for understanding new music . . .each new piece may have a frame of reference but in itself a new dialect. Look into XM radio, lots of just released stations: punk and ska, ultra lounge, and I have heard a song that was on the trance station with Dieter doing vocals!! Really a cool song.
