IT.podcast.s11e09: Erika live at No Way Back Streaming From Beyond 2021 by ithqdetroit published on 2022-03-17T20:24:21Z THE MUSIC This set is a whole new vibe for me. Most of my performances are specifically for the club, so fall into that 127-135 kind of tempo. I recorded this set over a year into lockdown, and was very disconnected from sound systems at the time, struggling with my relationship with club music and dancefloors. This set reflects that mindset, at a faster tempo than I've ever worked at before (158!), yet with more of an at-home listening vibe than a dancefloor feeling. While exploring this new tempo, I was thinking deeply about our interconnectedness and capacity for growth and change. We lost Andrew Smith two days before I performed this set, and his presence is felt throughout the recording. track listing: 1. Radiance (for Andrew) 2. Nucleation 3. Scattering 4. Reduced 5. Semblance * 6. Cracked 7. Precipice 8. Constellated * Semblance is a live version of a remix of Headless Horseman everything else is written by me THE GEAR My live show is usually given on a stage, away from my home, so I use a carefully chosen selection of equipment that fits into an airplane. Typically, I perform with a sequencer, drum machine, 4 synthesizers, and 2-3 effects pedals. Recording a live set in my studio made it possible to use as many instruments as I have inputs, so I brought as much variety as I could to this set. While some of this gear is used throughout the set (say, the 808 BD), some of it only appears in a single track (like the Deckard's Dream). Here's the complete list of what I used to make the set. sequencer — - Genoqs Machines Octopus drum machines — - Elektron Analog RYTM mk 1 - Roland TR-606 with Quicksilver 606 mod - Roland TR-808 effects — - Empress Phaser - Eventide Space - Moog Moogerfooger MIDI MuRF - Strymon BlueSky synthesizers — - Black Corporation Deckard's Dream - Dreadbox Typhon - Korg Mono/Poly - MODOR NF-1M - Moog Minitaur - Moog Mother-32 - Moog Voyager RME - Roland SH-101 - Sequential Circuits Pro-One - Waldorf Blofeld - Waldorf Pulse2 recorded and mixed through — - Ableton Live - SoundCraft Ghost 24LE - UA Apollo 16 - UA Apollo x16 — Erika video: https://youtu.be/1cKTeHBAdQs bandcamp: https://erika.bandcamp.com/album/no-way-back-streaming-from-beyond Genre No Way Back Comment by Mod3rn Hydra I'll never tire 🖤🥹 2024-02-24T13:08:46Z Comment by ChickenPotPie <3 2022-10-12T21:43:41Z Comment by brightest Gorilla biscuits reference right here, wild 2022-03-31T03:44:18Z Comment by Jed James Love this whole vibe.
