My Forever Studio

This time, our guest this time is Kailtlyn Aurelia Smith, and electronic musician, composer, performer, and producer whose serendipitous run in with a Buchla 100 completely changed how she approached making music. She’s worked with synthesizer pioneer Suzanne Ciani and film composer Emile Mosseri, and on her new album she explores darker, more club-friendly styles than ever before. In this episode, learn more about how her first experiments with a Buchla taught her patience for “irritating” sounds, how her synaesthesia turns sounds into bodily sensations, and the ways that this affects her production. As always, expect Forever Studio rules to be bent, but never broken.  Season 8 of the My Forever Studio Podcast is supported by Audient, and the impressive new Horizon range of audio interfaces.https://audient.com/ https://audient.com/products/audio-interfaces/horizon-range/ https://musictech.com/ https://tyxstudios.com/ STUFF WE TALK ABOUT (SPOILERS AHEAD)https://www.vintagesynth.com/buchla/100-serieshttps://www.vam.ac.uk/easthttps://www.avid.com/pro-toolshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singelihttps://reverb.com/uk/p/oxford-synthesizer-company-oscar-37-key-analog-monophonic-programmable-music-synthesizer https://www.gforcesoftware.com/product/imposcar3/https://www.vintagesynth.com/buchla/700-serieshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMS_Synthi_100https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(music)https://evolutionmusicpartners.com/omni-loop-kaitlyn-aurelia-smith/https://www.overstayeraudio.com/saturator-nt-02ahttps://www.instagram.com/thommonahan/https://www.neumann.com/en-gb/products/microphones/u-67-sethttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_for_18_Musicianshttps://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/usonian-houses-everything-you-need-to-know-about-frank-lloyd-wrights-affordable-homes

This time, legendary electronic music creator and Ableton co-founder Robert Henke, known in the studio as Monolake, joins us for a journey into his creative process, his love for expressive hardware, and his fascination with sound technology old and new.From growing up in a family of engineers to his influential career in Berlin's pioneering club scene, Robert Henke shares how engineering spawns art in his work. He reveals what he’d change in Ableton Live if he could start over, why hands-on hardware is still critical to his process, and what he'd build from scratch if given the tools and the time. Season 8 of the My Forever Studio Podcast is supported by Audient, and the impressive new Horizon range of audio interfaces.https://audient.com/ https://audient.com/products/audio-interfaces/horizon-range/ https://musictech.com/ https://tyxstudios.com/ STUFF WE TALK ABOUT (SPOILERS AHEAD)https://reverb.com/uk/p/roland-juno-6-analog-synthesizerElectric Indigo: https://indigo-inc.at/https://reverb.com/uk/p/ensoniq-asr-10 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_SY77 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_TR-505https://reverb.com/uk/p/alesis-quadraverb-plus-black-2010shttps://atc.audio/professional/loudspeakers/scm300asl-pro/ https://atc.audio/professional/pro-subwoofers/scs240iw-pro/https://www.expressivee.com/2-osmosehttps://anukari.com/https://doepfer.de/pf.htmhttps://www.korg.co.uk/products/2600mhttps://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O202853/p-231-print-mohr-manfred/
