David Hilowitz Japanese Vocal Synthesizer [Patreon Exclusive] [Decent Sampler]-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 09 April 2024 | 462 MB
I made a video about the Pocket Miku: a unique vocal synthesizer from Japan. As part of that, I also made a bunch of sample libraries by feeding the Pocket Miku into the Hologram Microcosm. These are mostly cinematic pad sounds, but the sample libraries have ADSR controls, so you can easily turn them into pluck or keys instruments if you like. NOTE: This is not a port of the Pocket Miku. For copyright reasons, I’m not able to include the raw Pocket Miku sounds in this download, so this contains only the highly processed Microcosm sounds.

A Really Strange and Wonderful Time: The Chapel Hill Music Scene: 1989-1999 [Audiobook] screenshot
English | ASIN: B0CFBVBKHN | 2024 | 10 hours and 20 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 276 MB
The first biography of the thriving and influential rock scene in Chapel Hill, which gave the world artists like Ben Folds Five, Superchunk, and Squirrel Nut Zippers. North Carolina has always produced extraordinary music of every description. But the indie-rock boom of the late 1980s and early ‘90s brought the state most fully into the public consciousness, while the subsequent post-Grunge free-for-all bestowed its greatest commercial successes. In addition to the creation of legacy label Merge Records and a slate of excellent indie bands like Superchunk, Archers of Loaf, and Polvo, this was the decade when other North Carolina artists broke Billboard’s Top 200 and sold millions of records―several million of which were issued by another indie label based in Carrboro, Chapel Hill’s smaller next-door neighbor.

An icon of British national identity and one of the most widely performed twentieth-century composers, Ralph Vaughan Williams has been misunderstood as much as he had been revered; his international impact and enduring influence on areas as diverse as church music, film scores and popular music has been insufficiently appreciated. This volume brings together a team of leading scholars, examining all areas of the composer's output from new perspectives, and re-evaluating the cultural politics of his lifelong advocacy for the music-making of ordinary people.
