Drumcell: IDOW Extended Interview #3 (Modular Techno)
Музыка
In January 2012, the I Dream of Wires team stopped by the studio of techno producer Drumcell, to discuss his evolution from producing with hardware, to software, and now back to hardware again, with a focus on eurorack modular synthesis. The interview was conducted for inclusion in "I Dream of Wires."
Drumcell is also the founder of Droid Recordings, and co-founder of Droid Behavior, one of LA's longest running techno event promotion companies, standing at the centre of the West Coast techno community for nearly a decade.
"I Dream of Wires" is an upcoming, independent documentary film about the phenomenal resurgence of the modular synthesizer - exploring the passions, obsessions and dreams of people who have dedicated part of their lives to this esoteric electronic music machine. Written and directed by Robert Fantinatto, with Jason Amm (Ghostly International recording artist Solvent) serving as producer and co-writer, IDOW is set to receive it's festival premiere, May 2013.
This is the 3rd in a series of extended interviews, which will be produced and released in various formats throughout the production, and following the release, of the film. I DREAM OF WIRES extended interview segments are sponsored by MATRIXSYNTH (m.matrixsynth.com).

nice to have stuff like this and IDOW captured for all times
Luckiest bastard in the world. Happens to find a 909, 808 and 303 gathering dust in the back room, available for him to use all the time???

this is what trends do with ppl. so always remember this when you see a new hype for gear that makes everyone sell their flagship gear. Remember that one day, everyone wanted to get rid of his 303 to afford a Pentium with Rebirth...
Awesome stuff
more please:)
Really enjoyed this. You have basically described my EXACT history of working with gear, graduating to software, and then amalgamating the two. (Minus of course scoring a 808/909/303 randomly...dude... so lucky >< ) I also completely agree with your non bias analog/digital point of view. Both have there uses and charms... I have just started my modular collection and am looking forward to getting deeper into this. Thanks for the interview! Godspeed.

It seems to be a common theme.... Start with HW. Move to SW. Go back to HW, or, best case scenario, synthesize the two. I went totally SW for a long while and became quite effective at writing the same track a million different ways.... now I have HW again and my DAW is [mostly] sending out MIDI. I love what I hear and I'm learning to finish and simply yank out my patch cables. Of course, the sequences _all_ get saved :)
Sleep Complex is a masterpiece. It also makes great BF4 music.
Division of Trust is awesome
Gordito is cute

Ha! no one's going to buy that shit lol. I still wonder how huge the techno market is. Techno in general and minimal techno
This guy makes such boring music.
