This is WHY I'm pleased to have found a copy of "Switched-On Bach".
Revolutionary stuff in 1968!

Happy Birthday to Wendy Carlos, composer famous for Switched On Bach, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and Tron. She also did a brilliant collaboration with Weird Al and many other albums worth checking out.

I was listening to Wendy Carlos’s “Tron” soundtrack (https://youtu.be/P5RcNuQXuR4?si=0A7kkuw8QxyzSD_i) the other day.. a similar vibe to her work on horror films but not as outright unnerving
#SymSat #Tron #WendyCarlos -
Cuando era pequeño vi tantas veces #Tron en #VHS que podría haber quemado la cinta. Se convirtió fácilmente en una de mis películas favoritas por su despliegue visual y su gran imaginación con una temática cifi (y un mensaje sobre la manipulación de información y el propósito de la existencia).
Así que cuando se estrenó #TronLegacy no dudé en ir a verla en cines. Me flipó muchísimo su renovación visual y en versión con gafas 3D hicieron el juego de que el mundo real se viera en 2D mientras que el mundo virtual se viera con profundidad. Era mucho más una película de acción que la primera, pero era una sucesora espiritual que no traicionaba la original. La música de #DaftPunk fue una guinda inesperada al pastel, sin desmerecer el gran trabajo que hizo #WendyCarlos con la primera.
Y sin embargo, ahora con #TronAres me da una pereza tremenda. La veré seguramente cuando esté en streaming, pero por los anuncios tengo la sensación de que han desvirtuado más todavía la franquicia. Que es un despliegue de CGI para lucir a un #JaredLeto que ya no soporto. Ojalá me tenga que comer mis palabras, aunque lo dudo mucho. Una lástima.

Anyone heard of #WendyCarlos before?
A great little clear explanation of how synths work by a very interesting woman.

I'm just pleased that I can still find interesting LPs and tiki kitsch in thrift stores in the far-flung science-fictional year of 2025. At a reasonable cost. The Wendy Carlos record looks essentially unplayed, only adding to the experience. #Kitsch #Moog #Synth #ThriftStoreFind #Tiki #Vinyl #WendyCarlos

#NowPlaying Uhrwerk Orange. “Oh bliss! Bliss and heaven! Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh. It was like a bird of rarest-spun heaven metal or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now. As I slooshied, I knew such lovely pictures!”

I never get tired of listening to #WendyCarlos explaining her work in #SynthMusic
Sorry for the FB link, I couldn't find the clip at the BBC archive...

Harte Liebe für die End-Credits-#GutMukke von #Tron. #WendyCarlos at her best. Und Mix aus Analog- und Elektro-Orgel für Cyberfantasy ist eine feine Verbeugung vor historischen IT-Kybernetik-Vorstufen (komplexe Luftstrom-Steuerung mit Ja/Nein-Schleusen; siehe auch Lochkarten-Webstühle bzw. Instrumente und so).

It's quite good, actually (not my video). For fans of #MortGarson and #WendyCarlos. Wonder who was commissioned to do it?

Capovolgimento di prospettiva nel 3o capitolo della saga: ora è un personaggio digitale ad entrare nel mondo analogico.

Trailer zu »Tron: Ares« (Cyperbunk-Portal-Fantasy) ist da.
Für mich DIE große Frage: wird der 3 Tron-Film mit dem Soundtrack-Niveau seiner Vorgänger mithalten können? #WendyCarlos, dann #DaftPunk mit Joseph Trapaneses Hilfe hamm jeweils legendär innovative bzw. geile Scores für die Vorgänger geschaffen.
Und diesmal sind #NineInchNails 🤯 🤩 am Byte.
Alles andere ist mir worscht, weil, sooo schlimm wird’s schon nicht werden.

I grabbed the vinyl for "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer" at the thrift store last year.
My first attempt at digitizing the album failed, perhaps because Audacity got short-changed on the Linux CPU and dropped so many audio packets.

Le premier festival d’hiver est dédié à #WendyCarlos.
Première compositrice trans (pour transgenre comme pour transcription), égérie inoubliable de Kubrick, pionnière des musiques électroniques et artiste Moog par excellence, elle livre avec ce #synthétiseur une interprétation « branchée » de Bach que Glenn Gould lui-même salua comme l’une des plus décisives du siècle. On explorera donc dans ce festival comment le répertoire s’est trouvé une seconde vie dans les #musiquesélectroniques et comment les synthétiseurs continuent de faire répertoire, avec un foisonnement et une liberté qui n’est pas sans rappeler le meilleur de l’âge baroque. À travers la figure de Wendy Carlos comme avec la soirée de lancement du livre Basta Now ! de #FannyChiarello, l’événement propose un focus sur l’électronique comme lieu d’émancipation pour les femmes et les #artistesLGBT.Moog, ARP, Serge ou Casio seront donc les personnages principaux de ce week-end aux côtés des artistes – et notamment des femmes – qui ont su nouer un rapport intime avec ces machines. Et nous espérons que vous aurez autant de plaisir à découvrir ces concerts, ateliers et sessions d’écoute que nous en avons eu à la préparer !

So, I managed to get a copy of #WendyCarlos's #SwitchedOnBach on CD a while back, but last I checked it's still difficult to get anything of hers other than her soundtrack work. Anyone have any leads on where to get more of her music? Like, anywhere other than Amazon? Her website (which hasn't updated since '09 it looks like) says she's lost control of the publishing rights for her music. >.<

Wendy Carlos + synths + cats, BBC interview 1989. Watch her "build" a xylophone sound on a synthesizer.
Also watch her cats, they're very cute.

Found myself tonight listening to Switched-On Bach, the breakout #WendyCarlos album.
It blew me away the first time I heard it (as I'm sure it did to others). It's been a long time since I've listened to it and I find still blown away.
If, somehow, you haven't heard it and love #synth or #Bach, or both, it's worth the listen. I know it makes my brain go brrrrr.
