about

Since 2006 Michael White has created music using the STS Serge Modular Music System. Over the years his original 2 panel Animoo and TKB has expanded (with the guidance of his buddy Rex Probe) into a beast that at times is mangy, disheveled and unruly and other times pure and simple.
Described as ambient tone poems, the music drifts somewhere between classifications or styles. In 2020 he began releasing music on Bandcamp.

lyrics

“transmission” is a piece about trying to get a simple message across through constant noise and distraction. The sombre falling M2nd melodic fragment is the message which as the piece progresses never seems to be able to break through or influence the noisy distractions.
Technically the patch uses the Serge middle and bottom sections of the VCM (wave multipliers) feeding back on itself to create some of the noise elements, mainly the granulated sounds. An oscillator bank provided the other harmonic sound elements. The rhythmic and gestural stream was created by mixing numerous envelopes with CV mixers and xfaders forming “loci” (a concept generously thrown my way by my friend Rex Probe). The idea of “loci” is to create numerous localized points of control in a patch that can be inter-acted with in realtime by human (or potentially non-human) intervention. The WAD and Res EQ processed the audio in places. The piece was recorded in 3 passes and then edited to create the form.
