MoCM: DIY Sound Modules

2012-03-01T21:14:00.000+02:00

Andreas developed early in his teens a taste for DIY constructions, so it was just a matter of his initiation to electronic music to take sound modules to another level.

A composer and performer of electronic and computer music himself, he soon caught on to the potential of both live shows and the experience of music making in terms of "instrument" use. MoCM sound solutions come as an answer to those fields which rely largely on software's algorithmic "point, scroll and click" routine; however they can easily adapt to all kinds of music genres.

By focusing on circuit-bending, prototyping and junk instrument philosophy, these DIY sound modules open a whole new world of creativity and experimenting for studio recordings or live performances.All modules are unique, incorporating a variety of materials and features. Hacked toys, old consoles, electronic components, pieces of wood and any kind of random objects are turned into synths, sound generators and noise makers which produce, reproduce and modify sound. Their feel is equally old school and futuristic, elegant and edgy, fun and inspiring.

The MoCM lab is a work in progress. Complementary to the line of sound modules which can be purchased via the MoCM Ebay store, it welcomes interaction as well as brainstorming, and it is orientated to workshops and improvs aiming at breaking new artistic grounds.

Ghetonia - Agapimou fidela protini

2012-02-21T19:56:00.008+02:00

Απ'το cd,

Τα ελληνόφωνα της Κάτω Ιταλίας

Agapimu fidella

Sta korafaissu ssianonna linari
Ce 'delrampise mesa sto chloro,
Sekundu motti skonnete o fengari
Atto krovattitu orio, parfeto.

Agapimu fidela protini
Puru ti nifta iss' innu se toro;
Ivo fsunnotas 'e se vrisko 'ci
Ce is ta mala klamata arcino

Tin agapimu vale sti fsichi,
Sekundu sti kardiammu tin vasto:
lus panta sto kosmo pai 'to zisi,
Sekundu s' agapune n' agapisi

Μεταφραση:

Αγάπη μου πιστή

Στο χωραφάκι σου μάζευα λινάρι
και άστραψε μέσα στο πράσινο,
όπως όταν σηκώνεται το φεγγάρι
απ΄το κρεβάτι του, ωραίο, λαμπρό.

Αγαπη μου πιστή, πρώτη,
και τη νύχτα στον ύπνο μου σε βλέπω,
ξυπνώντας δε σε βρίσκω εκεί
και αρχίζω να κλαίω πολύ πολύ.

Την αγάπη μου βάλε στην ψυχή σου,
όπως την κρατώ εγώ στην καρδιά μου,
έτσι πάντα στον κόσμο πάει η ζωή,
όπως σ'αγαπάνε ν'αγαπήσεις.

Smoke Two Joints is a song originally written by The Toyes, who performed it in traditional Reggae style and released it in 1983. According to The Toyes, "one fine fall day on a small island" of Oahu in Hawaii, two of the band members, Jim and Sandy, were sitting under a large banyan tree on Kuhio Beach, "tokin' on some sweet bud & jammin' on a rootsy reggae funky town" when they conceived the song "Smoke Two Joints".
