More EPS noodlings from the Red House studio. This one features a break from a Violent Femmes record I picked up for like 25 cents from the Red Door. Jealousy ensued over that record but whatever it’s ok, and it def had this one great break on it. Dig how the sample interpolation just destroys the sound.

DIRTY BREAKS JAH
Along the same lines as the GaGeAsSeBr things, my live sets had to consist of looped phrases that I played back on the fly….this is pre-tempo sync too folks to it’s all flowing straight from the fingers (I actually prefer this). Anyway this is a banger I threw together for no other purpose than to have pure dirt coming out the speakers when I played live.
Named Havana cause somehow I was really into Cuban cigars when I was in high school.
This is pretty much all S-20 played live with loops from different things, namely TS-404 which was a pretty great pre-vst softsynth groovebox thing.

This is just a bs jam I did with a recently acquired Yamaha TX-81Z synthesizer running into my reel to reel. This is the first tape I ever made on that machine, I believe. Finally pulled the sounds off and sequenced this little diddy last summer…it was recorded in Nov of 09 I believe.
Fun fact:
The Sega Genesis sound chip was a 6 part multi-timbral, 4 operator FM synth from Yamaha (+sample channel).
The TX-81Z is an 8 part multi-timbral, 4 operator FM synth from Yamaha.
Is it any wonder everything you do on the TX sounds like Golden Axe or Altered Beast?

In honor of the newly resurrected Ensoniq EPS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM2o0W5Y0pI), here is more dirty tape from the Red House. This one features Karl Blau doing dubstep.
The cool thing about the EPS, is that the LFOs are key dependent…you can hit a key, get the LFO going, then alter the LFO, hit another key, and as long as you hold down both notes, you can hear both LFOs going independently. I don’t know another synth/sampler that does that. So anyway, this was a two man, 10 finger collaboration.
