Forms Five - Shapes In Space-is a new album by Benge as part of his series of retro-future explorations of particular synthesisers from the early history of electronic music.
from the blurb:
"This album was made using a Buchla 100 modular synthesiser system from the 1960s
"No other sound sources were used, or any external processing. The pieces
were built up by layering different tracks upon each other, a technique
known as 'sound on sound' recording
"I deliberately wanted to avoid using regular harmonic, melodic and
rhythmic elements on this record, preferring to let the Buchla speak its
own very particular language"
another Buchla bonanza, from the original era
Morton Subotnik explains his own Buchla system
