Live Gig in Portland, OR, USA

[R.Fahl]

I'll be playing my first solo show in Portland under the name Jetfinger.
The date's August 21st at the Monte Carlo Lounge (1016 SE Belmont).  I'll
be putting my two newest modulars through their paces and making all the
pretty girls drunk with oscillations.

 "One aspect shared by early analog synths was the instability of certain
components, most obviously demonstrated by pitch drift in the oscillators.
Some synths were more stable than others. The question was, what did the
manufacturer consider a tolerable amount of pitch drift? 'We felt that it
was more important for the Buchla synth to have lots of things that were
slightly less stable than to have it be so expensive you could only afford
a few modules,' says Subotnick. 'As I recall, the determination of how long
the oscillators would stay in tune was how long a violin stayed in tune in
a concert. I figured if you had to retune a violin halfway through, why not
an oscillator?'
