about

Kavalanic Languages 3/5

KL03 comes from KL's resident mathematician in Rome: Elio Terzi. Terzi was a post-doc studying computational linear algebra in 1983 when he heard an 808 for the first time on the radio, and the arrival of acid and rave some years later began a lifelong obsession. Publication deadlines kept him from indulging too deeply, but the department chair was never much amused by Terzi’s habit of drifting into his 10 A.M. classes directly from the rave. Despite increasingly bizarre lectures through the early 90’s, tenure has treated him relatively well, giving him time to spend with drum machines and to occasionally raid the neighboring physics labs for logic units and signal generators. KL03 features three simple 606 & bass line “experiments” made recently in his 20th floor office.

Terzi likes how his 606 sounds when its batteries are running low and the decay on the hi-hats is all crisped up and frazzled, and he has spent a "reasonable amount" of the Institute’s time and money “analyzing” them. On “Renette” Terzi lands what he considers his most professional track with a bouncing bass line and flurry of claps and flanging, while “Lifthia” is a faster cut that places his MS-20s’ wonky pitch tracking front and center. “Coefficients” tries to finish things off with a simple 303 line but Terzi’s microphone was on and he had a lecture to prepare for.
