fourmoon77 by Kurt Kurasaki
This is a performance on a Buchla Music Easel from 1977. Originally part of the Scofield 200 System commissioned in the 1970s, and inscribed on the main board of the 208 is 'DB 4•77' - Don Buchla, April 1977. The title is derived from this mark.
I’ve had this instrument since the late 80s and have maintained it over the decades. This patch was recorded in 2017 on a Nagra Field Recorder, and then mixed with a pair of moog bucket brigade delays. The three parts were then brought together in a surround mix that added the spatial dynamics for quadraphonic playback.
The track is presented here in different versions: Stereo and QS Quadraphonic.
The booklet contains information to access the full quadraphonic version.
