Highlight from Brixton Radio Show #75 - PLUS: TDC Tunes live improv gig coming soon!

Continuing to catch up with posting highlights from my radio shows with this section from my 75th show. We are only a few weeks behind now as this one was originally broadcast 30th January 2023...

TDC Tunes' thoughts about this set

This is the one with the Police stuff!

I'd been maneuvered into promising to wear the police outfit I wore for the @risingstargame Hive Fest sketch so I figured I may as well go all in and do a Police special edition! As well as the outfit then I made loads of new Police related modes for the Twitch Bot in my channel. I also downloaded a bunch of recordings of police radio and loaded them into one of my sample playing modules in the modular.

So a lot of what you hear in this video is snippets, effects and sometimes weirdness created out of the police radio samples. I quite like the vibe and I think it goes pretty well with an improvised modular set. What do you think?

The new Twitch Bot modes were a mixed bag. I was hoping to implement one that made a bit of a mini game in the channel but I only managed to get as far as having it let people say !goodcop or !badcop and count the total votes for each. So pretty limited. It did let me figure out how to do some more advanced things with the Bot though so there is potential for a more advanced mini game in a future show!

TDC Tunes live Improv gig - London - 24 Feb

After a great night back in October - once again I'll be taking the modular synth over to Crouch End and leading an improv session for any musician to join in with!

I always say anything can happen with modular synth music. But what about with modular synth + any musician on the night joining in and improvising on top?!

A recipe for chaos? Maybe! But last time there were some fantastic musicians and we definitely created something unique and memorable and had a lot of fun doing it.

So if you happen to be able to get to North London on the 24th Feb - come along and come say hi!

Entry is FREE (Donations to the church welcome) and there will be a bar too!

Hope to see many of you in my Twitch channel this coming Monday 20th Feb - from 9pm UK time!

You may notice in the video that various cards popup from time to time in the bottom left - usually accompanied by some flashing or changing lights. Well - that's the special modes that any viewer can kick off with my Bot in the Twitch channel. And all the really regular viewers have their own special mode now...
