A solo composition for the Roland TB-303 

Check it out on ➞ Matière-Mémoire


        

In 2020, Matière-Mémoire asked 20 artists to make a 20 minute piece to be released throughout the year. At the same time the pandemic hit in and the curfew made it impossible to work or record in a church, so I decided to persue an old teenage passion with the Roland TB-303!

As described by Boomkat:

“Parisian organist and composer Hampus Lindwall drops acid on the MMXX series with 20’ of playful but discretely minimalist TB-303 tweaks after previously contributing to collaborations with Phill Niblock, Susanna Santos Silva, and Thorbjörn Zetterberg

Precisely not the sort of thing you’d expect from someone who usually performs in churches, ‘Lost & Found’ sees Lindwall really put the silver box thru its paces in an EVOL-ian style, wrenching a mind-spanking array of virtuosic acid solos shorn of their usual percussive accompaniment. He certainly knows his way around the machine, twisting its envelopes into gurning misshapes ranging from focussed low end modulations to screaming, throaty assaults and wobbly asides with a smart balance of daftness and expressive intuition.”
