"This is one sweet puppy!!!

I bought this KORG MS-10 Vintage Monophonic Synthesizer in Sweden about 17 years ago. It was recently checked over, calibrated and got a US power supply, the old one from Japan didn’t run in the US, so now it runs totally perfectly!!!

This was used live for two of the first Ladytron gigs in the UK and France. I know this cause I was the original singer for Ladytron back then. That's me and Danny in the picture on what I think is Ladytron's first ever live gig. 3000 people showed up!

As you can see from the image, the KORG is in great exterior condition too. One of the original keys is however slightly broken, but it still works to play it.

I’m only selling it because I’m moving internationally and need to reduce my personal belongings ASAP."

I'm believe this would be Lisa Eriksson of Techno Squirrels.

KORG MS-20 Synthesizer Getting Started EASY Video Demo

Published on Aug 30, 2016 gstormelectro

"Audio and Video by G-Storm Electro c.2016

So you've heard some cool MS-20 demos and you decide to pick one up. You get it home, take it out of the box, and then realize OMG what do I do now? My friend, this demo is for you, don't run away from your MS-20. I will show you how to EASILY get up to speed quickly WITHOUT taking away your whole weekend.

We will do it all. Using the LFO. Doing a Ladytron patch. A sample-and-hold patch. A weird random self-playing patch. And not forgetting to run a drum machine through the External Signal Generator."

Don Juan Dracula - Live Roserock 2005

YouTube via donjuandracula (click for more videos).

Featuring a Korg MicroKorg and a little red keytar. Anyone know what the keytar is? The audio quality isn't the best but you should get an idea of song. BTW, there is another reason why I am posting this. The band's manager, Shane Chisholm, contacted me about doing an interview with the band. As this site is about synths, I'm keeping the questions focused on synths. I also asked him about opening up the questions to all of you, the readers of Matrixsynth, and he said go for it. So.. If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the comments. Why do I have a funny feeling about this... You can find more info on Don Juan Dracula (more shots and better audio) on their official website and their myspace page.

Update: Some of their influences: "These band we really love and come to mind right now:
omd, pet shop boys, depeche mode, devo, duran duran, a-ha, soft cell, erasure, the cure, human league, the faint, vhs or beta, visage, ultravox, freezepop, every moves a picture, peaches, fischerspooner, ladytron, gary numan, miss kittin, stereo total, chicks on speed, jeans team, and so on...."

Update: Shane is offering a free copy of the album for download to the first 20 people that want it. If you want it, shoot me an email: matrixsynth[at]hotmail.com.

Korg Univox MINIKORG 700S Analog Synth Synthesizer

Click the pic to read the note.

"This Mini-Korg is in outstanding physical and functional condition. Everything works well, all sliders are super-smooth, switches are firm and tight, and it sounds amazing. It does everything from round bass, filtered analog bass, Ladytron-style octave switching, singing vocal or theremin type leads. A really immediate, accessible, and performative synth. I already have a Model D Minimoog and feel like this is the closest I've gotten to that warm sound yet, even more so that the ubiquitous bass stations and other emulations. Certainly it's not as huge sounding as a Model D, but nothing is, but I really feel like Korg was going for that kind of "thing" when they made this. My favorite feature is setting the VCA gate on repeat and playing notes in sort of a live-arpeggiating kindof way. Hard to explain but if you take a listen to some demos online you can hear this."

Matthew Sweet "Where You Get Love"

YouTube via PostModVid. Not the best quality video, but this is the best I could find on the tube. BTW, I can thank Matthew Sweet for my Clavia Nord Lead 1. I used to go see him perform live. My wife loved his music and asked what that red synth the band was playing all the leads with in every show. I said it's this new cool synth called the Clavia Nord Lead. She said I should get one and eventually talked me into it with some extra money that came in at just the right time. :)

BTW, Mathew Sweet has an ARP 2600 in the following video. Anyone know if it's his and if not who's it is?

Matthew Sweet "Sick of Myself"

YouTube via detour066. "This speaks for itself." Again not the best quality, but the best of the two I found.

Back to the Clavia Nord Lead (and the purpose of this post), it definitely has it's own character and it excels at lead sounds. All synths are obviously capable of a wide range of sounds including leads, but you have to wonder how much it's strength in it's character lead to the name of the synth.

If you know of other tracks featuring *that* Nord Lead sound feel free to share. Also feel free to comment on other specific synth lead sounds you think stand out in general. The MicroKORG detuned saw in various tracks, such as The Killers' Somebody Told Me comes to mind. I'd post the video but there's no embed code for it. Side note: every time I hear that track I hear bits of Midge Ure and early Robert Smith. Their new track Human sounds like Alphaville. Not much synth playing in the video but you can see their MicroKORG. I like bands that own, show and stick to their synths. Ladytron, and the Dandy Warhols with their KORG MS20s come to mind.

DELIA DERBYSHIRE- "The Wizards Laboratory" (1972)

"The Women of ELECTRONIC MUSIC! From the 30's to the 70's!

Before synthesizers, electronic music was honed the hard way in universities, by splicing tape loops, distorting sounds, endless dubbing, and blind instinct. Here are the timeless women of future music who created our present...

Since the 1930's, CLARA ROCKMORE was the master of the notoriously difficult Theremin, and later championed by synthesizer-creator Bob Moog; LOUIS & BEBE BARRON created the first all-electronic score for the film "FORBIDDEN PLANET" (1957), using oscillated sounds and tape loops; //STUDIO d'ASSAI (Paris): Danish ELSE MARIE PADE studied under musique concrete founder Pierre Schaeffer, becoming a noted composer; ELAINE RADIGUE used the Buchla and Arp synthesizers in her work, heavily influenced by Buddhist meditation, and records now with laptop improv group The Lappetites; MICHELE BOKANOWSKI has composed for film, televison, and theatre; //BBC RADIOPHONIC WORKSHOP (London): ...was created and directed by DAPHNE ORAM, inventor and sonic pioneer; she was followed by DELIA DERBYSHIRE, who brought Ron Grainer's "DR. WHO" theme to brilliant, eerie life with her studio wizardry; MADDALENA FAGANDINI co-created the proto-Techno single "Time Beat/ Waltz In Space" (1962) with young producer George Martin under the alias 'Ray Cathode'; GLYNIS JONES produced some of the Workshop's classic albums like "Out Of This World" (1976); ELIZABETH PARKER scored many BBC shows including "BLAKE'S 7", and was the person to see the Workshop out in its 1998 finale; //Fluxus performance artist YOKO ONO expanded John Lennon's mind and range with electronic music, musique concrete, and 'happening' experiments; //COLUMBIA-PRINCETON ELECTRONIC MUSIC CENTER (New York): A premiere focal point for international composers since the 50's, including composer and Associate Director PRIL SMILEY; ALICE SHIELDS combined her operatic voice and poetry with the revolutionary synthesizers of the late 60's and early 70's; teacher DARIA SEMEGEN wrote traditional classical music as well as electronic; WENDY CARLOS had massive mainstream success with the all-synth "Switched On Bach", before writing groundbreaking film scores for "A CLOCKWORK ORANGE," "THE SHINING" and 'TRON"; nearby at Bell Labs, LAURIE SPIEGEL spearheaded computer graphics and software design as well as new music; maverick ANNETTE PEACOCK went from Free Jazz piano to the first synthesizers, threading her early 70's raps and rock with freeform electronics; //Argentinian BEATRIZ FERREYRA, who also studied with Schaeffer, is an esteemed composer and teacher; //SAN FRANCISCO TAPE MUSIC CENTER: The crucial West Coast electronic center, including Morton Subotnick, Terry Riley, Steve Reich and PAULINE OLIVEROS in 1962; it moved across the Bay to become the... //CENTER FOR CONTEMPORARY MUSIC (Mills College, Oakland, CA): Oliveros was the first Director, perfecting her signal processing system for live performance; student and now Co-Director MAGGI PAYNE trailblazed video imagery and record engineering along with her music; alum CYNTHIA WEBSTER played in the early synth band Triode, founded electro mag SYNAPSE, and now runs Cyndustries designing software for electronic music, such as the Zeroscillator.

Their innovations led to Progressiv Rock, Krautrock, New Wave, Coldwave, Darkwave, Electro Funk, Industrial, Techno, and Electroclash. Their fringe future music is now the soundtrack of today.

DELIA DERBYSHIRE: This song is from a 1972 LP called "Ultrasonic", collecting music library pieces Delia scored for use in TV shows. It was recently issued on CD, as was "Oramics" by Daphne Oram:

ALICE SHIELDS -"STUDY FOR VOICE AND TAPE" (1968)


"Sound, the infinite frontier! Science had chopped the world into atoms, components from which to build. Modern art deconstructed reality, reconstructing our perceptions of it. And the first Electronic Music likewise took apart sound and turned it inside out for new compositions. Vladimir Ussachevsky founded the first Electronic Music Center jointly with Columbian and Princeton universities in 1952. He brought in avant composers from countries worldwide with new perspectives and radical expirementation. This included women like Daria Semegen, Pril Smiley, Wendy Carlos, and Alice Shields. In the 50's, Electronic Music was distortions of recordings. Sounds on a tape recorder would be manipulated by feedback, repeated spliced loops, overlapping tracks with multiple recorders, and using oscillators and reverb to sculpt the tempo, tone, or texture. This prevailed in continually advancing ways well through the 1960s. Alice used these techniques in creating this composition. A gifted mezzesoprano, she first sang a poem she'd written. She accompanied this with the first analog Buchla synthesizer, a rare and recent device only beginning to draw the attention of the hippest pop musicians. She then manipulated pitch and speed in textural patterns to supplement the freeform song. This was the cutting edge music of the future, usually heard only in academic circles. But it made its way into film soundtracks (from FORBIDDEN PLANET to Wendy Carlos' A CLOCKWORK ORANGE), Fusion Jazz (Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock), Progressive Rock (from George Harrison's 1969 ELECTRONIC SOUND to Krautrock and Kraftwerk), Funk (Stevie Wonder's T.O.N.T.O., Bernie Worrell), on to the synthesizer explosion of New Wave, then Hip Hop (from Bambaataa's ElectroFunk to Public Enemy's radical sculptures of noise), Industrial (synthetic abrasion), and the Electronica music of today; as such, Alice Shields is a godmother of Le Tigre, Peaches, Chicks On Speed, Lesbians On Ecstasy, and Ladytron, to name a few."

MALARIA! -"Your Turn To Run" (1982)

"The Women of 80's ELECTRO! Coldwave, Darkwave, Synthpop, Industrial!

As synthesizers got smaller and cheaper through the 70's, 'future music' went from acedemia to the street. Punk, PostPunk, Funk, and HipHop artists brought attitude and new styles into the pop vocabulary throughout the 80's that forged the music of today. Here are many women from the first Electro rock era..."

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command Mix Demo feat. Marnie "Hearts on Fire"

Published on Apr 24, 2019 rezfilter

Impulse Command Synthesizer
Stereo synth -- headphones or speakers required!!

Here's a musical demo of the Analogue Solutions Impulse Command synthesizer at work in the studio featuring a variety of custom sounds ranging from percussion, bass and leads to other rhythmic effects.

All sounds and patches in this video are 100% Impulse Command, including all drums and effects. Analogue loops, bass lines and percussion were generated with the synth's onboard analogue sequencer and recorded individually into Logic.

This isn't a full remix, but rather an example showcasing the many sides and potential of this true sonic realiser.

The amazing vocal for "Hearts on Fire" is Helen Marnie of Marnie (and Ladytron).
