Just wanted to let you know that the latest Robotmakers video is up on Youtube. The last one has been watched and purportedly enjoyed by some 11,000 folks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbU-jlPaWoE Modern Android Cybernaut features: - closeup of an actual Gerd Schulte Audio Electronik Compact Phasing A, with its "Feedback" and "Osc.-Period" knobs going to 11 - MOTM pedal interface controlling Minimoog acting as guitar wah-pedal - MOTM format Zeroscillators in a Moogerfooger Freqbox mode modifying guitar - some dreaded imitative synthesis (at the end of the tune) - interesting visual effect with laser projected through steam to form a "tunnel" through which the protagonist walks (ala "Won't Get Fooled Again" from "The Kids are Alright") - rhyming of the words "karate" and "tall soy latte" - dancing modular synth racks (stop motion animation and casters) - Citizen Kane allusions - shot on location in the mysterious superterranean lair of the Robotmakers and the Hamptons I hope you enjoy it. Best regards, Roger
