Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has the new address for STS since their move from
California? I'm interested in obtaining a panel or two and want to make
sure I have the right number before I spend my moola :).

TIA,
Rodney

151 E. Capitol Drive
Hartland, Wisconson 53209
PH: 262-367-3030

Hello
I am new to this group.
I don't own a Serge , but I searching for a modular and I am leaning towards
Serge.
I joined the group just to be informed on the instrument , and listen to
some sounds if possible....
Does anybody know a way to bring a Serge to Europe(Greece) safely and cheap?

anyone care to comment on STS's shipping packaging? i've never received any gear in the mail, and have
been lucky enough to pick up all my gear from the shop in person. i'm sure they have sent plenty
of units overseas and will pack your items quite securely.

Evening,


Does anybody know of any "production notes" for "Planetary Unfolding"
anywhere? I'm simply curious as to how the recording process went.

Are single notes multitracked like hell to build up those pads?
Or....Michael's system is certainly big enough for some polyphony...are some
of the pads played polyphonically from a keyboard? Was there a score?

The more I listen to it and pick out details...there's some amazing textures
and sounds in there.

Wish we could convince him to join the list (heh)...

Just wondering....


What's your preferred target for Mir if it decides to hit something?

well, he was invited, and here's what i got back in reply from karen at earth turtle:

"Hi Matt!
I told Michael about the group. He has the address and will certainly
visit in the near future.
He wishes that he did own a Serge, but has not had the funds to reinvest
in a system. Someday...
He appreciated your positive feedback.
Enjoy!
Karen"

MS's new CD, Within, has a wholly serge track called seven that certainly
revisists his PU (heheh) terrain. its available from earth turtle, here:

music recordings of Michael Stearns 1988 to 1998:

michaels serge is seen here in a new SMOG pic:

and here:

and if you like PU i can't recommend enough listmember chris macdonald's "telomere"
CD which sure comes close:


Telomere Electronic Space Music CD

(yes, i've plugged this already, but its that good, and all serge!)

i seem to recall rex asking kevin braheny in the shop one day about stearns serge, and i think
braheny ended up with it. but don't quote me......

For purely historical interest... was production quicker in Stearn's Serge
times, or was acquiring this system a matter of years?

It was more a matter of how fast you could build your own. LOL

My friend scott aitken wrote a feature on michael stearns for audio
media magazine some time ago. Only a little bit of serge, I'm afraid,
but quite interesting nevertheless IMO. He just emailed me to say it's
turned up online, so here it is:

best etc.
