The music video for Stress, by French electronica duo Justice, is creating a furor.
The video, directed by Romain Gavras, depicts gang members “wreaking havoc as they swarm from their neglected homes in the outskirts or banlieues of Paris into the heart of the city, all to a grueling, nightmarish electro beat.”
Followed by a camera crew […]

This hypnotic video translates a drum sequence into stop-motion animation.

This is a video demo of the Future Sound Systems Decade Counter DC1:
The module sequentially counts through ten outputs (this can be cut down by patching a step output to the reset input), which can then be used to trigger envelopes, etc. in a modular system. Here, the module is used to process audio coming […]

In this short video, Vangelis demonstrates his method of improvising in the symphonic electronica style that he pioneered.

OT: This music video, for the song Again and Again by Bird & the Bee, makes really clever use of various features of Mac OS X, creating a constantly changing visual interpretation of the music, despite limited resources. Very cool!

At the 2008 Maker Faire, IEEE Spectrum caught up with Andrew Turley, who had turned a microfiche into a musical instrument.
Using a simple photodiode, the keyboard plays notes based on how light the center of the screen is.

This new video by Richard Lainhart, Pneuma, is based on growth patterns generated by cellular automata software, processed in Adobe After Effects to create constantly changing structures ranging from the crystalline to the architectural.
We previously highlighted another cool visualization by Lainhart, Lux,
The soundtrack is a live improvisation on the Buchla 200e analog modular synthesizer, controlled […]

A quicky video demonstrating the sonic mangling capacity of the Wiard Wogglebug.
The Wogglebug is an analog electronic instrument designed by Grant Richter, and inspired by Don Buchla. Grant has made the circuit available to the synth DIY community, and versions are showing up in all types of modular formats.

A little modular synth porn flic demonstrating the polyphonic “switch on time” feature of the Moon Modular M563:
People asking: “What is SWITCH ON TIME”? at the M563 trigger sequencer.
With SOT you can define and optimize the width of your trigger/gate output signal.There are more creative possibilities: e.g. the SOT function manipulates the envelope generator times, […]

A nice modular jam session from shadofac.
What’s nice about this video is that he avoids most of the common modular synth cliches that show up in a lot of YouTube jams.
Here’s the gear rundown:
