I Dream of Wires...
Hello all, just watched a really cool documentary on NetFlix called "I Dream of Wires" about the history of the synthesizer & just wanted to make those interested aware of it...full of gorgeous old synths, check it out
Comments
Good tip, thanks.
Thanx! I'll go watch it now.
I saw that it's on Netflix last night, it's on my list. I've heard it's very good and very nerdy, so I should love it
And for uz w/o netflix ?
Good doc. About modular synthesis. Lots of cables.
I have Netflix but sadly I don't think this is available in the UK
I tried YouTube to see if it was available for those w/out NetFlix to no avail, sorry...but I did find extended interviews there from the documentary that are pretty cool in their own right...
I believe you can buy it from Amazon, etc. Netflix probably has a free trial as well.
Watched this last night. I'm not surprised that this showed up as a thread. Great history lesson and very educational/entertaining too. Doug, you have to see this somehow.
Not available on Canadian Netflix either!
I recommend the hardcore edition Different narrator, longer play time, more artists interviews, more history, etc.
The Netflix / cut version was very watered down to me.
I dream of not having any wires. At all!
Tried to watch this the other day, found it rather dull.
I see they've wheeled out Vince Clarke again - I remember him when playing guitar in the local youth centre while me and my mates were squeezing weirdness out of MS20's. Electro pioneer my osc.
hardcore edition is like 99 on amazon
The hardcore edition is nothing but plugging and unplugging, I prefer more of a story myself... ;-)
Yes it dragged a bit, and was a little repetitive, but documentary's like this are always welcomed. I wish we had more in depth documentaries from the bands in the 60's and 70's. Rush, Yes, Kansas, Styx etc.
The hardcore edition is out of print, so dealers are trying to gouge the price. Last year, that same Blu-ray was selling for about $33 on Amazon.
The standard version is available in the U.S. iTunes store (not sure about other countries). It's $14.99 for purchase or $4.99 for rental. iTunes includes a few bonus shorts, but it doesn't have all the material that's in the hardcore version.
One I LOVE is Alchemists of Sound... It is about the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and the real olde days. This stuff is closest to my heart.

It is also on Veoh in one chunk but not as good of quality.

I watched this on Netflix yesterday, it was ok. Lots of bleeps and bloops. Didn't seem to be much music featured though.
My favorite part was at the very end, when the guy was talking about "someone in their house with 200 modules, at some point they should probably hit record." That Sounds like any musical instrument hoarder, be it guitars,ios apps, etc. Ha!
I knew a guitarist a while back who was a lawyer during the week-long played at church on the weekend, every week he had a new guitar with some new pedal on his pedal board. I'll tell you, the barre chords sounded the same each week. Imagine what might happen if a piece of that money went to lessons!
Of course, he was an entertainment attorney whose specialty was screwing artists by signing them to deals, then dropping them later, at which point they find out he owns their songs and prevents them from playing them anymore or even using their own name. These artists are broke Christian artists by the way, who barely had anyone hear them in the first place. But at least he had a song catalog without having to learn more than a barre chord!
Available now on Netflix UK
Yeah, i avoided watching this doc because of a bitter envy at my being unable to afford any modular stuff, but if I can't even be bothered to become adept at half my ipad synths then why in the hell am i desirous for a gargantuan modular setup.
Love it some ways, but without a lottery win, forget it. My more modest dream is multiple iPad and knobbly controllers.
Yah I don't really get a big chub for the real thing. Digital emulation is fine by me. I bought a Nord Lead back in the 90s and it got me close enough without dedicating a corner of my home. I guess it is like vinyl. Maybe if I had tons of money and time and space and was bored.
I am going to make an announcement introducing this new site feature we have now on the TSTR site, I was going to wait till we had more in there, but there are about 12 there now, and we will posting all sorts,
I'm sure most of you guys already know about it but we now have a dedicated page for documentarys and films of interest to us, check it out

We thought it would be great to have all these in one place
I had a lottery win tonight - a tenner on the Instant Wins, so I'm going to spend it all on a modular synth (app - Analogkit)
Sweet man!
No kidding. The beauty of iOS!!! I had a big modular back in the 80's - way before it became fashionable. Not so interested any more these days.
I watched it. It was okay. Though I preferred Synth Britannia much better.
re: the real thing. I would give my left testicle for a real CS-80 ...
