EP 58 : MATT BLACK
The noise annoys
Where would we be without John Peel ?
In a time of noise we need selectors!
Yeah man.
We can all agree on something right?
I chat with DJ

Matt Black
He’s seen a lot. A LOT
From making hit records in the UK (One that sat at the number 1 spot for weeks), to
remixing Legends like Eric B and Rakim, INXS, Steve Reich, The Fall and James Brown (I mean what a list!)... from
mulitmedia pioneering with everything from video art to software video performance instruments to the unknown sky.
Matt has had his fingers in many a tasty pie.
I was very lucky to catch up with him on the blower for a minute :)
we chat about the zen delay which is a great collaboration between ninja tune and Ericasynths. Check this link!

Nitty today is all about the mysterious and musical world of the morph. Exploring the space in BETWEEN. I use a few methods to explore this.
the obxa's portamento, the emblematic systems "catalyst" which is a eurorack module for crossfading between stored states (in this notes)
and lastly I use Ableton with midi faders to achieve similar results. I needed to make a max patch for this which is here: enjoy ! it has a help button :)
ABLETON NITTY FADER!
