Andromeda used in real music

2005-11-02 by nanobotdex

synthesists,

i have been an andromeda owner for several years, and a lover of
analog synthesis for about 7 years.

often, i see people in this forum asking what the andromeda sounds
like, how does it compare with the virus, other analogs, etc.  well,
for the past 3 years, i'd been working on a 23-song CD with my band
The Arrogants which uses the following keyboards:

Alesis A6 Andromeda
ARP Solus
Korg EX-8000
Roland RS-09 (Strings)
Access Virus Indigo (B Engine)
Hammond XK-2

if you guys would like to hear some cool Andromeda sounds in the
context of a very Sundays/Cranberries pop-vein, checkout
www.arrogants.com.

incidentally, the link to score the CD is here: 
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000BUCSQ8/qid=1130886255/sr=2-2/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_2/103-1772139-4507816?v=glance&s=music

a free dvd is included with the cd with a "making of" documentary. 
additionally, diagrams of the live keyboard configurations, and their
evolutions, are included.  to top it all off, there is even a
15-minute audio-paper which i wrote that discusses the role of
subtractive analog synthesis in the pop music scene.

anyway, check it out, guys.  although i admit a little promotion is
nice, i mainly posted this here so that people can see deeper into the
andromeda's potential in different styles of music.
