This is Paul Shillito’s Tomita-style version of Stravinsky’s The Rite Of Spring Introduction.
Shillito calls this his classitonic style – influenced by the electronic interpretations of classical music done by Isao Tomita and Wendy Carlos in the late 60’s and 70’s.
He plans a complete version of The Rite Of Spring.
Soft synths used on this included the Arturia Minimoog V2, Arturia Moog Modular, Arturia Jupiter 8V, Arturia Yamaha CS80V and soundtoys effects. Read more…
Switched-On Ringtones
RCP Tones has introduced Switched-On Ringtones, a ringtone collection inspired by the classic switched-on sounds of early popular synthesis:
“Switch-On” your mobile phone with electronic tones designed on vintage analog synthesizers. We’ve tweaked blips, sequences, and effects from classic Moog, ARP, Roland, and Korg synthesizers and fine-tuned them to sound pristinely cool on the iPhone, Palm, BB, and more
This collection is inspired by the “Switched-On” records of the late 1960s, particularly Wendy Carlos’ “Switched-On Bach” and the countless “Moog” records that followed. “Switched-On Ringtones” brings unmistakable vintage electronic sound to your modern smartphone.
A portion of each sale of Switched-On Ringtones goes to The Bob Moog Foundation.
If Switched-On sounds are before your time, check out RCP’s blog post on switched on history.
