Tangling with the Thereminator 2 - Desolation
“When you see beauty in desolation it changes something inside you. Desolation tries to colonise you.” - Jeff Vandermeer
I think this could overtake Shoom in my affections for touch based lead noodle warbling, bringing the advantage of AUV3 to the party. I like the expressiveness you can bring to the slippy slidey, reminiscent of @brambos’ Mononoke. Makes some nice crunchy noises too. The only instrument used here was the Thereminator 2, played live by me into Loopy Pro inside AUM.
So yeah, Loopy Pro worked to capture and multitrack the noodling, but it is still very much a work in progress for me. I know it’s all muscle memory and RTFM and that, but I had trouble reliably flicking the donuts into and out of record, and can’t help but think a lot of the top level functions should just be easier to grok than it currently is. Just me being lazy, probably. Ah well.
Er… enjoy?

Looks like you’re the first to make an actual track with Theraminator 2 so far! There’s something so wonderful about the Theramin sound.
@NeuM : it appears so! Yes, the theremin from those old sci-fi movies was one of my gateway drugs as a young child into a lifelong fascination with electronic soundmaking. I have the Stylophone knockoff on order. Seeing a real virtuoso like Carolina Eyck play a real Theremin though is like witnessing an actual freaking magic spell enacted in the world. I posted her excellent cover of the Carpenter Halloween theme here recently, but for me it is her looper and Theremin cover of Morricone’s The Ecstasy Of Gold which just bowls me over:
Such precision.
Isn’t it great that we live in a world where there’s room for all kinds of extraordinarily talented people to be discovered and find an audience? I think that’s an under appreciated aspect of so many people having a digital presence.
@Svetlovska I loved that
I’m enjoying this 🤘
And I’m totally with you on the opacity of loopy, love it, but it just isn’t particularly intuitive or sticky in the mind for me either…
Music got better throughout, I think you finally found an instrument that you can’t deny you play 😅
@Svetlovska, thanks for sharing, makes me realise there’s obviously more to Thereminator 2 than i had assumed. I’m sure you’ll be aware of it already, but I recommend checking out the Touch Theremin in Sunvox too - hook it up to a sampler module for all sorts of fun! Cheers.
Great track and impressive given it’s just one newish app 👌
Thanks all for the listens and comments @Krupa : I’d love to think that in the theremin I had finally found my instrument… but I have to tell you, if my early experiments with my new Stylophone Theremin which arrived a few days ago are anything to go by, Carolina Eyck has nothing to worry about !
