Title: Win 1/2 Buddha machines - Qld subs only Post by: culturebird on Thursday 20 January 2011, 03:34:15 pm hip-hop? Underwhelmed by indie? Alienated by experimental? Or just sick of all that talkie-talk, blah-blah-blah, look-at-me chord change drum roll busy work? I suggest switching on the FM3 Chan Fang Buddha Machine 3.0.
Composed entirely of minimalist drones played on the seven-string Qin, the Buddha Machine is simple. Turn it on, it plays. Want a different recording? Push the (only) button. There's a pitch nob to go slower/deeper or faster/higher. Here it is in action. It's like a music box for a song that doesn't exist. Whoa. We told you about the Buddha II way back when. II and this new 3.0 are available interstate from Rhythm Active; they also sell the Buddha Machine Gristleism, a collab with industrial pioneers Throbing Gristle. There's even a Buddha Machine app... Thanks to Rhythm Active, we have two FM3 Chan Fang Buddha Machine to giveaway! To enter, just answer the following question. This week's question: If I could zone out to loops of one sound of summer, I would choose: a) cicadas buzzing b) junkies fighting c) aircon humming d) Pommies gloating To be in the running send your answer AND postal address to brisbane.win@rightanglestudio.com.au, winners will be notified by email.
