I saw a post with a miniature “EMUKATOR 1” model, so it inspired me to walk next to my original from 1982, pull out a five inch internal flappy and take a picture!

Great News! We just recorded the reference track for the first original song for the first Dyngus Day Parade in New York City! In the vocal booth is the amazing New York City based opera singer from Poland, Kasia Drucker. She and I compose a song with several children from the Greenpoint area of Brooklyn, and the children are recording it as a demo on Saturday. Now we have a world-class studio working with us in Brooklyn and it will be recorded in a final version on Sunday, April 10 after our concert that we’re giving a few hours earlier! The parade route is chosen and at 5:30 on April 18, Dingus day will be the first parade in New York City… Stay tuned for the details! Prof. Musial!

They’re BACK: SCAMMERS.
Greeting cello recording studio owners, be careful of these criminals. I got this message a few years ago. It sounds very real. IT’S NOT. They start sending all kinds of realistic variations. My business bank knew of the fraud and we terminated the communications. Well, they found another email address! Be careful!

I am on a new project!

I have dedicated about 60 hours in the past couple of weeks to put in new Patch Bays, reconfigure old fashioned MIDI interfaces, run all kinds of USB cables for the new colorful instrument routings, drill drill drill, screw screw screw, put in new mounting devices so everything is once again ergonomically perfect.

Did you know that my doctoral dissertation in Music Technology proposal was the construction of this studio back in 1992 at New York Universiry? I did all the coursework, but the director was bogus, all of this will be revealed in a biography that’s in the works by Evelyn Bonilla, and maybe someday a feature documentary movie by Sputnic Erawoc.

I am in the mist of filming training videos for my highly unique MusicTech Kids ®️ and MusicTech Teens ®️ programs. (There are 12 video cameras mounted here.) I am hoping to convert my concepts into smart phone and tablet apps!

Soon I will be launching a series on Synthesis, Sound Design & Synthestration. Did you know that I created a course with this title “Synthestration“ in 2004 at Stevens Institute of technology. I should’ve trademark the name. It’s the art of creating Orchestra-like electronic recordings, with digital sound samples and synthesizers. I’ve been doing this since 1979. I got pretty good at it in 1982 when I purchased my first digital sampler called an “Emulator 1”. The late great jazz legend Dave Brubeck learned how to play one in my home studio in 1987. He actually created some trumpet melodies that he used in an original score for a “Catholic mass“ which he wrote for the pope, who is visiting America later that year!

I was an understudy of the great legendary Hollywood sound designer Frank Serafine, (Star Trek, Tron, Baywatch, Addams Family, ETC,,) Frank would stay in my home when he would come to New York City for the audio engineering conventions and we would create sounds on my synthesizers here at SkyRoom Studio. I worked for the incredible Suzanne Cianni at her state of the art Synthesizer Stufio on Madison Avenue, and I was selected at New York university to be the first Masters student for the highly acclaimed, legendary classic electronic music composer, Wendy Carlos. I was friends with a Music Technology Giant Bob Moog, he was going to be the keynote speaker for the batches degree I created in music technology back in 2004, and I had the opportunity to spend an evening in a private concert by my mentor Keith Emerson Emerson Lake and Palmer. He actually let me play his “Monster Moog Modular” system. I produced my first album for the incredible Paul Petrocy On a Moog 55 modular system at the University of Buffalo in 1979.

So yes, I am also writing a book about how to be a music producer in the electronic music world!

Other than that, I’ve been doing a lot of fishing!

Major renovations underway… The air conditioning unit was improperly installed by a company under the name “GVK” A few years ago in a studio. The owner named Gary admitted his fault in front of witnesses, but did not have liability insurance! The unit overheated intensely. I had $5000 of keyboard damage. Glue which the manufacturer puts into the keyboard to hold in the “weights“ to make it feel “semi weighted“ on glued and jammed four of my keyboards which I’m more than 25 years in age… Technically classics“

Then the water drip down the side of the building and there’s a crack in the concrete between the 35th and 34th floor. Water is used into the 34th floor in the ceiling over my dining room table in my Steinway grand piano got damaged and so did the wall next to the dining room table!

So all of the ceilings on my two floors and all the walls are being scraped and repainted by contractors the next month… I guess it’s time for a little vacation? 

Such fun

I hope my dear friend the late great music technology inventor Dr. Robert A. “Bob” Moog he’s not looking down heaven and growling at me! I hope his gleaming with joy knowing that he inspired yet another company to honor his like Tronic invention of his version of synthesizers. Specifically distribute of his global classic, the Minimoog Model “D”.

I bought a used one from my music store in East Aurora New York in 1976. I did not know at the time that he and his family lived there! In 1978 I had the honor to visit the factory where they were made right next to the Buffalo New York airport! In 1979 I bought a used Polymoog and I have both of these still today in my www.SkyRoomStudio.com

In 1982 I met Bob for the first time at an audio engineering convention in NYC, and we became friends! It was not just because I was a musician but also because I had her in degrees and electrical technology and I guess had an inventive mind… We simply “clicked”!! 

In 2004 I was given the extremely daunting challenge to build from scratch, a bachelors degree in Music Technology, At a college which was only known for the most part for mechanical engineering. The man who invented the steam engine gave the property to the Institute in which is in his name. They gave me no budget whatsoever for a laboratory, in the need of this degree that would mean a very high-end recording studio which is students could use 24/7. They put 16 Macintosh desktops in a parallel surface classroom and called it the “Mac La “. It was a disgrace.

So doing what I do, and I guess that’s why they hired me, I was forced to put on my thinking cap… And once again in life, I thought “out-of-the-box”!

I was surrounded by a lot of fuddy-duddy tenured professors who did something once in her life 20 years ago and kept on talking about it. I am the other hand was active with current projects every day which I brought into the classroom and talked about.

Am I own expense I went to the audio engineer in convention in San Francisco and when I saw my friend Bob I’m very humbly a boldly I guess at the same time asked him if he would kindly be the “keynote” speaker when I had somehow launch this degree program in 2005… Much to my very pleasant surprise, he excepted... up before the degree launch he passed away! 😢

Two years later, I met his lovely daughter Michelle at a “mug fest“ in Manhattan and she announced she was starting a foundation and is on her and that she needed our help. I jumped to the stage and the rest is history.. Long story short, I suggested that she launch a student division like “Grammy U”. (I was a voting member of the Grammys at the time, because I was so busy I didn’t actually execute my right to vote, but I did take students to the satellite location for the Grammys in New York City when I was held in Los Angeles… This is what part of Grammy U did!) 

Michelle liked the idea and gave me the volunteer honorary title “Director of Academic Membership & Development”... I went on to design the concept of building the greatest recording studio on earth for electronica music composition and I was going to title it in honor of her father.

http://www.oneworldartists.com/pages/BobMoogFoundation/MichelleMoogKoussaAes2007.html

The Foundation approved my concept, but the president of the university at the time believe it or not… a university of “technology“ did not know who the king of music technology was…BOB MOOG, would not sign the agreement! They lost a deal! How brilliant?

 Oh well, Great memories! I moved on and have invented very unique curriculums all of my own!

So today I started experimenting with the new Behringer “Poly D”. I have to say it’s quite impressive, but please don’t be mad at me… The original Minimoog had three isolators and was monophonic, this one has four isolators and his polyphonic and it also has Distortion, A stereo chorus andMIDI and USB control. The wheels also glow red when you use them and it’s much lighter. I have to say, it sounds pretty darn close and it only cost about 1/5 the expense of a brand new authentic unit in a kind of does four times as much! Oop!

Stay tune for hopefully more music and video samples and you can read about more of this in my books as they get ready for publishing!

It’s happening again! It started when I was 13 and I bought my first vinyl record, “Umagumma” by “Pink Floyd”. I judged the book by its cover!  I walked in to my local Kmart by the Buffalo Bills football stadium, and felt the need to spend some money that I made playing the organ in church. I have no idea what to get. So I just started walking through and flipping through vinyl records. And the album cover captivated me. So I did it. I bought it. It changed my musical life, especially the last song on the album… “Several small species of furry animals grooving in a cave with a pict”... or something like that!

There were lots of sounds in this album that simply did not sound like traditional rock band instruments, and there was this credit on the album for a “Moog synthesizer”... I eventually found out what it was… Sorry kiddos, Google didn’t exist, and it took a couple years… When I was 15 I learned a group YES as well as ELP and then STARCASTLE. I had to get a Minimoog but I couldn’t afford it, I found a used one for sale in a music store in East Aurora New York not knowing that Bob Moog who laid on will become my friend, lives there with his family! What are the odds??

More details will come in my new “Synth Wiz™️” TV series in production!

As I start my production day, I think of when I was a boy I dreaded having a practice those damn scales! I’m so glad my parents were strict. All too often I see today’s kids like a seven-year-old am at going down the elevator yesterday, have their parents tell me that they are “addicted to video games“. Whenever I hear that I think “who gave them the iPad”?

That’s why invented my programs and my students if they stay focused, excel to the max!! bold words. I understand. Click on the video links on the sites and you might be surprised! Schools, roller rinks, festival stages, massive parades, sports arenas, even in Disney and more uniquely, the “HALL OF HEROES” in the Pentagon. So, what does your piano teacher do?
