Description

Kevin Rix is a film trailer composer, guitarist, and modular synth artist. His compositions have appeared in trailers for films such as Avatar, How to Train Your Dragon, Robin Hood, Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, Aquaman, Frozen 2, Black Widow, Top Gun: Maverick, The King's Man, Joker, and Cruella. In 2015, Kevin was introduced to modular synths and fell down the rabbit hole. 


 


“Visitors” is a live improvisation recorded in one take on a Buchla 24 panel system and Music Easel. I took an hour to program the 252e and do initial patching, then hit record. When using Buchla, I like to program modules like the 252e and start a basic patch with the sound off so I can discover and perform the patch in real time using the Todd Barton "follow the sound" method. There's no editing, overdubs, or mixing. The Easel was patched into a Strymon BlueSky.
