This is my substituting for Rob episode from a couple of weeks ago, I've decide to call it #85 even though it happened after what I thought was #86, just to fill the gap
It is a very noisy affair in the main, but has some more ambient interludes, just for contrast
Produced using very minimal gear:
Yamaha VSS-30, Bugbrand Postcard and Board Weevils, Thingamagoop 2, Monotron, Pandora PX3 and DD-20 for looping, samples include iphone apps and vocal noises
Before I forget: The apps used to create this show were the following - Gliss (with custom samples), NLog synth, Jasuto Pro, Toplapapp and Star6 - and of course, Ambiloop (a free windows application) with up to 200 second long loops.
I hope you enjoy(ed) listening as much as I enjoyed playing! :)

Episode 87 was mostly going to be heavy phased Micromoog drones and G2 doing granular processing of live vocal noises, but I ended up adding some Blofeld to the drone mix and then ending with a bit of a sequencer fest using both Nord modulars

Episode 88 was a looping ambient improv featuring the Korg DS8 Digital Synthesizer, Repeater for looping, Resonator for some filtering and Wedge for reverb and delay. The DS8 is a rather odd implementation of FM synthesis, with no operators, just 2 oscillators with amplitude and timbre envelopes, and a spectrum control, it also has xmod and ring mod, built in effects and sliders to control timbre and the envelopes, which are nice
This set also features a fair bit of extreme pitch shifting of the loops using the Repeaters pitch controls.
Apart from a few technical difficulties with a bad connection, that have been edited out, I think it went quite well.

Episode 89 - Dark Skies Over Berlin, was an attempt to integrate a lot of recent ideas into one show, with dark noisy ambient stuff, putney weirdness, berlin'ish sequencing, some tron and even some drums, using putney, nord modulars, blofeld, dr-202, resonator, krautrock phaser, repeater & dd-20

Tonight's AIS is a go for me, so it is return to flight after, what? Three months?
I will continue where I left off, which is with something I was working on in Kyma - a monster reverb and some sampling tools. _________________ Muied Lumens Sub Forum Bandcamp

Episode 91 was a dark, ambient, experimental improv loop jam that featured Alesis Andromeda, Repeater and DD-20. I used lots of oscillator FM to get some rather strange sounds

This time I'll be premiering my prototype guitar, finished yesterday. I'll probably place it under a thick layer of effects and processing too while I'm at it. _________________ Muied Lumens Sub Forum Bandcamp

Episode 93 nearly didn't happen as I was full of cold and really tired, but as the show must go on I recorded a set an hour and a quarter before I was due to go on to play over the air in my slot, so I could chill and get to bed earlier
equipment used: Oberheim Matrix 12, MAM MAP-1, Electrix Repeater, Bugbrand PT Delay, Boss DD-20
It all turned out a bit noisy and experimental, a bit wild and all over the place, much like my mental state when recording it
This one was inspired by a blog post at the Walls of Valhalla and especially the first video in that post by Vangelis. My setup was remotely similar in spirit, although I did overdo the feedback a lot, almost pushing it into the runaway stage.
Kyma acted as three tape echoes, additional sounds from home made guitar, Proteus, Micron and iTouch. No looping or sequencing used.

Listening to it on the radio now - very nice - glad you did go through all that trouble then :-)
