PROTOTYPING 3: 40 years of one of a kind making

(Part 3 of 3.) The final part of Oliver Schoeffler's retrospective, spanning the last 4 decades. 

Playing Saturdays 3am and Thursdays 7pm UK time. 

Now released by Broken Bottle Productions.

Prototyping Part 3 (Deutsch)

In diesem Teil sind wir zeitlich gesehen mitten in den 90ern.

Dieses Album ist geprägt von Klanglandschaften, Umgebungen, Bildern und Stimmungen.

Wie bei den beiden Teilen zuvor musste ich mit klanglichen Einschränkungen zurecht kommen und so manchen Track mit seinen Instrumenten erneuern oder gute Parts loopen. 

Dabei sollte die ursprüngliche Stimmung erhalten bleiben…nach dem Motto: “ Was hätte ich damal gemacht mit den Möglichkeiten von Heute?”

Nun ist es ein schönes Werk geworden, das den Geist von Damals eingefangen hat.

Zu hören sind erste Kompositionen auf den “Mega ST” und das schon bekannte analoge Equipment.

MS20, CR78, Sequential TOM, Mono Poly, SK5, 707, M3r und viele Dinge die einfach Geräusche machen.

Prototyping Part 3 (English) In this part, we are in the middle of the 90s. 

This album is characterized by soundscapes, environments, images and moods. 

As with the two parts before, I had to deal with sonic limitations and renew some tracks with his instruments or loop good parts. The original mood was to be preserved... according to the motto: "What would I have done back then with the possibilities of today?" Now it has become a beautiful work that has captured the spirit of that time. The first compositions on the "Mega ST" and the already known analogue equipment can be heard. MS20, CR78, Sequential TOM, Mono Poly, SK5, 707, M3r and many things that just make noise.

Tracklist & Info (Deutsch/English)

1) 4Jo No.9

Ist ein Track mit einer 10er Sequenz, grummeln vom MS20, Sonnenstrahlen vom 707 und allem was in greifbarer Nähe lag.

It's a track with a sequence of 10, grumbling from the MS20, sunbeams from the 707 and everything that was within reach.

2) Neu Bauen 

Eins der ersten komplett durchkomponierten Stücke. Damals mit dem Atari Mega ST und dem Programm Steinberg “Twelve” Alle Sounds kommen vom 707 (FM- Synthese) außer die Solostimme, die hat noch den MS20 im Signal- Prozessing.

One of the first completely through-composed pieces. Back then with the Atari Mega ST and the program Steinberg "Twelve" All sounds come from the 707 (FM synthesis) except the solo voice, which still has the MS20 in signal processing.

3) Shoeshine

Der Aufhänger ist ein SK5 Loop mit einem stetig fließend, gehenden Gefühl. eine kleine E- Piano Improvisation gestattet den Blick zur Seite.

The hanger is an SK5 loop with a steady, flowing, walking feeling. a small electric piano improvisation allows a view to the side.

4) Parallel

Ja, ich höre gern Jazz…und mein bestreben ist immer möglichst viel Leben in die Elektrokisten zu bekommen.

Yes, I like to listen to jazz... and my ambition is always to get as much life as possible into the electrical boxes.

5) Radio`s Landlife

Wenn mein Radio eine Person wäre…dann würde sich wohl die Welt für In so ungefähr anhören.

If my radio were a person... then the world would probably sound something like that for In.

6) Between

Im Zwielicht unklarer Gefühle, hat man die Chance mehr über sich zu erfahren als einem lieb ist.

In the twilight of unclear feelings, you have the chance to learn more about yourself than you would like.

7) Stepjoke (Treppenwitz)

CR78 at it´s best…voller Substanz und Anlass für ganze Klanggebäude!

CR78 at it ́s best... full of substance and occasion for entire sound buildings!

8) The Tempest

Viel Groove, viel Arbeit am Sound. Grundthema ist das Drama “The Tempest”

Ich habe es geliebt zu dem Groove zu Improvisieren. Erst Heute bekam es die Form die es brauchte.

A lot of groove, a lot of work on the sound. The basic theme is the drama "The Tempest" I loved improvising to the groove. Only today did it get the shape it needed.

9) Ambienzoo

Wir bewundern den zoologischen Garten voller ätherischer Wesen. Wesenheiten in Schaukästen, Energiefeldern und Phiolen. Glimmrnd, Gleißend, Flirrend und voller Wärme.

We admire the zoological garden full of ethereal beings. entities in showcases, energy fields and vials. Glowing, glistening, shimmering and full of warmth.

10) Radiolando

Mit einer “Whoooo- Welle” und einem defekten Mehrfach- Takter durch das Sternbild des Hammerhais.

With a "Whoooo wave" and a defective multi-stroker through the constellation of the hammerhead shark.

11) Waiting for

Ein Delay- Loop war die unwiederbringliche Inspiration von Ken- Multi.

A delay loop was the irretrievable inspiration of Ken-Multi.

12) Space Sess

Ja, auch der Blues verläuft sich gern in der Nacht. Wellenrauschen und und Vögel.

Yes, the blues also likes to get lost at night. Waves and birds.

13) Wingo

Cellophan- Knistern ist der Trigger für das Auf- und Ab der Klanghügel.

Cellophane crackling is the trigger for the rise and fall of the sound hills.

14) Rainy D

Tropfender Regen auf das Fensterbrett kann eine Rhythmus- Box zum schwärmen bringen. “Endlich frei!”

Dripping rain on the window sill can make a rhythm box go into raptures. "Free at last!"

15) Old Nanny Cumuls

Dieser Track ist eigentlich von  “Home1” aber er ist zu schön um nur bei mir zu bleiben. Ein SK5- Rhythmuspreset triggert den Mono Poly mit viel Wind. Gitarren im Overdub, der MS20 liefert die Melodie, der Rest ist Geschichte.

This track is actually from "Home1" but it's too good to just stay with me. An SK5 Rhythm- Preset triggers the Mono Poly with a lot of wind. Guitars in overdub, the MS20 delivers the melody, the rest is history.

16) Everything is slow

Atem, Tiefe, Licht und Dunkel….lass dich fallen.

Breath, depth, light and dark....let yourself go.

17) Oblivion Autumn

Liebeskummer…mal wieder…mal wieder ein Trak gemacht den ich am meisten mag und höre.

Lovesickness... once again... once again made a Trak that I like and listen to the most.

ξïdoloch

The brand new mix by AFTERVOLTER (aka Irving Paul Pereira) of his new album, ξïdoloch.

Playing Thursday 16th January 5am and 12 noon (UK times). Repeated weekly.

ξïdoloch

A report by the fifth being of QIÏLŌPTH. City of CYTOXCIS, 

At 0700 hours, on the 13th day of the year 2104. CYTOXCIIAN arch-medics lost contact with my psyche's signal during cycle 2 of my treatment for central nervous system deterioration. 

In my disconnection and drift, sustained by some kind of mystical grace, I was brought by a great sentient train to a realm it called  ξïdoloch, or  zeitgeist of ‘the eight  rooms’ 

I had become a child again, unsick, standing in a  brutalist hall before a grey father figure whose body was full of static and hazy rhythmic blood movements. “This is mortier’s  house”, I was told by a gnome who had become my guide in this alien realm. 

There were other ‘machine nomes’ present;  three footed, dwarf-like humanoids who spoke like arcade game machines. There was a vortex of  signals and drunkenness, cartoonish and foolish forms turning into clusters of sounds..  They danced around the lanky, bald old man like disabled spiders. 

The elder gave me crushed crystals to drink, to breathe, to taste. In their atomic structures were organic computer systems. The strange nomes cried into the powder on my fingers. I consumed  and was taken through the eight rooms, as if simultaneously. 

I don’t know how long I was away. 

Everything was a blur of merged scenes and hypnagogic trance states and rituals.

I recall enchanted forests, I believe from my childhood dreams. There were scenes and sounds of war from other dreamers but without the bloodiness or violence. It was determined and victorious, as if the end of days, when The Lord  arrives  with thundering  sword and white horse and fire that issues from His mouth.  

There was carnage and celebration. 

I then became  an ancient book,  crumbling pages that old people and children consumed for their skin conditions. My organs were  projecting  walls of sound that swept through gardens where the terminally ill were  laid, then  rose as the white noise carried them upwards. 

There were naked and  deformed people dancing in concrete rooms cast  in blindness, bodies of light and flesh  flickering to odd time signatures and battle drums and crackling pulses that broke black stones trapped in veins and hearts and intestines. 

There were fairytale daydreams and mystical streams that lead me to impossible seas.  

(after three days and three nights) The  arch-doctors of CYTOXCIS  could finally make contact with me. And I was brought back to waking state. I am still unsure if I'm happy, returning to this place.  But my vitals have somehow improved, I can feel my fingers again, i can taste food again, something in me has changed. 

I can feel the   ‘noms’ climbing up and down my spine.

I can hear them giggling, dancing and  Juggling sunlight.  

I think i have brought a world back with me.  Ξïdoloch. The Eight rooms. I turn to my brothers and sisters ofQIÏLŌPTH,watch them in their cryogenic chairs,  somehow knowing they are each, in some way, one of the rooms, one of the worlds. \
