others as well

same wabby chords are in XMAS_EVE detuned, I wonder if its
the same synth or he just recreates the same patch on
different machines, probably the later

sounds like there is a digital synth on the flat chords
bells near the start, wonder if that's one of his casios or
the cheetah for a laugh

i don't know what synth / sample source it's from but that
rainforest-ish sound at 0:54 is in sueño latino

hah mystery solved, always wondered about that. the water
sound ("water bells") underneath it has been around since
the early 80s at least, my dad had it on 5.25" floppy for
his old sampler

yeah its lovely isn't it, I think these things are
ubiquitous in stuff outside of music as well, probably used
on all sorts of tv programs and films

the sledgehammer flute sample as well that's on wind squidge
isn't it hehe

yeah very evocative, the water sample was about 13 seconds
long and nearly filled the 640k memory. had that shakuichi
(sp?) flute sample as well, used to love messing around with
that

The loon was one of these presets. According to a user on
the Gearslutz forum, the loon sample came from the Emulator
II's factory-issued library disk #22, "Wind Chimes / Birds /
Stream", a set recorded by the sound designer and new age
musician Richard Burmer.
I had hoped to track the loon back to its source, but Burmer
died in 2006. I did manage to reach E-MU Systems' Dave
Rossum, who cofounded the company in Santa Cruz in 1971,
when he was still a graduate student in microbiology. "I do
remember the loon sample," he told me, "and of course
Richard Burmer was a good friend. But I don't personally
have any more details on the provenance of the loon sample."
Given that Burmer grew up in Michigan, it's tempting to
wonder if he recorded the sound close to home. I like to
imagine him hauling his recording equipment out into the
middle of a lake at dusk and trying to keep the canoe steady
while the birds set up a racket around him, but I guess
we'll never know; nor will we ever know whether he knew the
impact that disk #22 had on popular music.

ironic that a place with such a slow climate has a bird with
a call that is associated with rain forests humidity

here is the article im reading very informative for
pitchfork, 808 state mentions martin denny and his exotica
which makes perfect sense, I think aphex is a fan
