Lagowski Electronic Music Projects

Well, today was my first experience of teaching at a University (or any school for that matter!). I gave a presentation to the Digital Media MA students about Electronic Music Interfaces. This included demonstrations of ReBirth, Reason, Ableton Live, Reaktor, Bidule and Metasynth, along with a talk about the histories of Korg and Roland. It was a small group but they seemed enthusiastic and enjoyed playing with the software.
Let's hope there'll be many more like this in the future.

DLL is a track that was bashed together in Ableton Live 5. It uses snatches of Hebrew and Cantonese dialogue, a DLL file converted into audio with Audacity, some NASA guys talking, the Live 5 drum box 'Impulse' and maybe one or two effects :-p

This is the first quick mix to see how the elements fit together.

I Show Good Bit is my first experiment with Ableton Live 5, mixing various beats and samples from my collection. It uses voices from Apollo 13, the Space Shuttle and beats/sequences from Reason 3.
