Does anyone else like those 80s and 90s Dub Mixes?

</center)

<br>

So, I love the dub mixes from the 80s and 90s from 12" singles from my favorite electronic bands.

I decided with my new record to do the same thing, only I not only extended it to 10 minutes, I also, like a chump, edited a bunch of new footage to the beginning so it would be a total video experience. Well, friends, there are lot of puppets and flowers and ladybugs and buildings and dancing in this one. I hope you enjoy and be well. Stay safe, goddamn it!

Bum Ditty Bum! New Film For Arturia by Robbie Ryan

2014-10-14T18:12:00.001-07:00

I was naturally thrilled when Arturia asked me to produce another video for their amazing brand that includes hardware instruments, software instruments, hybrid hardware/software instruments, and iOS instruments. I am pleased to present "Arturia 15," which features the Minibrute on bass, the Arturia Origin on strings, and a brute force of vocals and percussion from me! I hope you enjoy the film and please tell Arturia how much you love it!

The Myth of Multitasking or Why Don't You have a Dedicated Music Machine?

2012-03-18T11:36:00.000-07:00

We all seem to be so busy these days. Often, we tell ourselves and others that we are "multitasking," which has become parlance for: "Doing a bunch of shit poorly all at the same time." When are we multitasking? All the time. Where are we multitasking? Everywhere.

People that text and drive claim to be "multitasking." They're really not. They're texting poorly and driving poorly. There have been several incidents where people are composing a text while walking and have led to serious or even fatal injuries. Talking on the phone while ironing, taking care of your child, doing work, or lovemaking is not multitasking. What you're doing here is diverting attention away from things, which, in their purest sense, require your undivided attention.

When I was growing up, I listened to music or talked on the phone while doing homework, and I can probably list the records I was listening to or the people I was speaking with more readily than recite the content and context of the homework I was doing. The reason for this is that I respond better to auditory stimulation than I do textual. That's probably why I became a musician as opposed to a writer.

It amazes me that with the amount of cheap technology available to so many people today, very few people have a dedicated music computer. I've always been passionate about music creation, and making music that means something requires complete concentration and dedication, which you cannot accomplish if the bottom right hand corner is filled with texts, IMs, and innane status updates of one form or another.

So, next time you're doing a combination of things really badly, instead of patting yourself on the back and thinking of yourself as a great multitasker, try doing the one thing you set out to do instead. There's a reason they serve junk food at cinemas. You can't enjoy a film and good food at the same time.

Sonic State and Korg have built a couple of beautiful new synths for Christmas! Here's the review.

Erasure "Be With You" by Robbie Ryan

2011-10-31T12:47:00.000-07:00

I recently made a new film for the band Erasure.
It features lots of talking phones, televisions, walls, and benches, and some old analogue synths as well. Enjoy! Did I mention there was Erasure in the film as well?

"The Cowz Are Werkin on Sunday" A Chick Fil A Film by Robbie Ryan

2011-07-20T11:35:00.000-07:00

I Love Analogue Kids and I love going to Chick Fil A for yummy snack and great drinks. I decided to make the "ultimate fan film" with my kids and the lovely staff of our local restaurant. I used my spiffy new Korg MR2 Recorder, as well as my usual stable of goodies, like my Arturia Origin and sweet drum samples from Goldbaby's IamMs20 Collection.

Like many of you, I've always been fascinated by the sound of analogue instruments and the TB303 is no exception. Here's a video to tell you why it's so awesome, but that you shouldn't pay boatloads of money for an old one.
