      Yes. Music is just beautiful sounds.!doesn’t have to be melody or harmony rhythm. I think if the sound makes you feel something, then it’s music. In fact it doesn’t have to be beautiful. It could foreboding, dangerous, curious.

    "I'm going for a quick smoke. You know what to do". Time goes fast. 50 (100? 200?) years later Hainbach is still there and becomes a new "lighthouse keeper". Invites next chosen to sit there for another eternity.

    • @russianvoodoo
      @russianvoodoo 4 роки тому +16

      Tele Synth you can’t apply. You can only receive an invitation to the “studio”. Only the chosen one, who knows how to send signals to the other side will have a chance to receive a pattern for organ which unlocks secret door to the studio.

    Fantastic show! My father was an audiologist and had a stack of test equipment in his lab (this was in the 60's-70's). When I (as a young boy) started getting obsessed with synthesisers in the the mid-70's I never considered this gear usable for making music. I do remember that he had a Bode ring modulator (which I knew Tomita used), but I had no idea how to integrate it. At that time I was learning how to use my first synth (EMS AKS) which kept me plenty occupied (and it provided ring modulation).

I have a very defined mission from now on: to move this beyond the dream and be that artist imagined. Thanks again for all the incredible work Hainbach!!
