David Hilowitz MINI GAN Analog Synth [Patreon Exclusive] [Decent Sampler]-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 08 April 2024 | 57 MB
I recently purchased an analog synth kit from 1979. As soon as I had finished soldering the instrument together, I sampled it and turned it into a Decent Sampler instrument. As you’ll see, it’s a fairly basic analog synth although I did a bunch of controls that aren’t on the actual unit: ADSR envelope, Reverb, Chorus, and Vibrato to the controls. Enjoy!

His writing on the music is accessible and informative, both for the professional musician and the keen amateur listener.

Touching from a Distance Ian Curtis and Joy Division screenshot
Language: English | 2007 | 240 pages | EPUB | 1,4 MB
The only in-depth biographical account of the lead singer of Joy Division, written by his widow.

Revered by his peers – Bono described his voice as "holy" – and idolized by his fans, Ian Curtis left behind a legacy rich in artistic genius.

Modernism and Popular Music screenshot
2011 | 254 pages | PDF | 1,2 MB
Traditionally, ideas about twentieth-century 'modernism' - whether focused on literature, music or the visual arts - have made a distinction between 'high' art and the 'popular' arts of best-selling fiction, jazz and other forms of popular music, and commercial art of one form or another. In Modernism and Popular Music, Ronald Schleifer instead shows how the music of George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Thomas 'Fats' Waller and Billie Holiday can be considered as artistic expressions equal to those of the traditional high art practices in music and literature.

The Mysticism of Sound and Music screenshot
1996 | EPUB | 407 pages | 1.09 MB
Music, according to Sufi teaching, is really a small expression of the overwhelming and perfect harmony of the whole universe—and that is the secret of its amazing power to move us. The Indian Sufi master Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882–1927), the first teacher to bring the Islamic mystical tradition to the West, was an accomplished musician himself. His lucid exposition of music's divine nature has become a modern classic, beloved not only by those interested in Sufism but by musicians of all kinds.
