Send us a textEpisode 014From the groundbreaking Lyricon of the 1970s to today's Roland Aerophone, Tom's distinctive electronic wind sounds have shaped countless recordings across jazz, pop, and film scores for decades.The continuation of our in-depth conversation with this legendary musician reveals fascinating insights about his approach to technology and musicianship. "What would best benefit the music?" Tom asks, explaining that wind controllers have always been just another tool in his arsenal, alongside saxophones and other woodwinds. This pragmatic philosophy has guided his five-decade career, allowing him to bring precisely the right sound to each musical situation.Tom shares colorful stories about watching Michael Brecker perform with the EWI at the Hollywood Bowl, his collaboration with Herb Alpert (who Tom credits with "reintroducing horns back into pop music" in the 1960s), and his ongoing quest to recapture the magic of his original Lyricon sound with modern technology. His description of searching for authentic expression amid endless digital possibilities will resonate with electronic musicians of all stripes.What truly distinguishes Tom's approach is his focus on musical expression rather than technological novelty. As he explains, of the hundreds of available sounds on modern wind controllers, he only cares deeply about the handful that allow him to express himself authentically. This quality-over-quantity philosophy serves as a valuable compass for musicians navigating today's overwhelming array of digital options.The conversation also delves into practical territory, with Tom and hosts Matt and Alistair exchanging tips on customizing Aerophone settings, adjusting key functions, and solving common playability challenges. These technical insights offer immediate value for wind controller players seeking to optimize their instruments.Ready to dive deeper into Tom Scott's world?

I really loved this episode of the 3DPOD with Howie Marotto, Additive Manufacturing Business Director at EWI. A Marine with deep logistics experience gets to tell us how viable 3D printing actually is for the military. If we look at the frontlines, the forward operating base, or large overseas bases—where will we 3D print what? Which technologies and machines will be used, and how will the U.S. ensure it has the best machines? Given his significant experience in setting up and supplying some of the largest bases in the world, overseeing aircraft maintenance supply, and implementing new logistics systems, Howie offers unique insight into the need for and realism of 3D printing in military logistics.

Send us a textEpisode 013 Grammy-winning saxophonist and composer Tom Scott joins the Aerophone Academy to share his extraordinary musical journey from clarinet player to pioneering wind controller artist. With 13 Grammy nominations, 3 Grammy awards, and appearances on over 2,000 recordings, Scott's unmistakable sound has defined popular music across multiple decades.Scott takes us through his remarkable career path, beginning with his early musical influences from his father, a music director at NBC Radio during World War II. His professional journey started at just 14 years old, playing $15 gigs at country clubs – experiences that taught him valuable lessons about serving the music rather than his ego. "Don't try to insert your own personal opinion about how you feel about a certain tune. Just play the damn thing with as much feeling as you can muster."The conversation explores Scott's groundbreaking work with the Lyricon, the world's first commercially available wind synthesizer. We hear fascinating behind-the-scenes stories about his iconic wind controller solos on hits like Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean," Captain & Tennille's "Do That To Me One More Time," Dan Fogelberg's "Heart Hotels," and Steely Dan's "Peg." These recordings revolutionized how electronic instruments could be integrated into popular music, bringing unprecedented expressiveness to synthesized sounds.Scott's masterful horn arrangements for Steely Dan's "Aja" album receive special attention, revealing his sophisticated approach to orchestration. "I'm going to write this like it's an Oliver Nelson arrangement," he explains, describing how he transformed simple chord structures into rich, complex voicings that enhanced these iconic recordings.Whether discussing his evolution through different wind controller technologies or sharing wisdom about musical restraint ("less is more very often"), Scott's insights offer invaluable perspectives for musicians at every level. This conversation celebrates not just technological innovation but the enduring importance of musicality in an increasingly electronic landscape.Subscribe now and join us next episode for part two of our conversation with this legendary musical innovator!If you'd like to send us a question for an upcoming episode, please email us at info@aerophoneacademy.comOr leave us a voice message that we can include in the podcast here.For more information about Matt, visit www.patchmanmusic.comFor great Aerophone courses, visit www.isax.academy

Today's episode is about assuming the position. You know, the one the flight attendants talk about "in case of a water landing"? Well, I don't know about you, but "water landing" is just another way to describe a CRASH LANDING IN WATER. Every time I hear that on a plane, my mind replaces that phrase with CRASH LANDING. So, I order a cocktail. It's the same with the "economy attendants", who are using "soft landing" instead of the historically more accurate description of what comes with recessions; STOCK MARKET CRASHES!Join Ken in this short lesson on where the economy is now, and how history is warning of what is to come...SOON!

Robert Moog et ses machines qui font Vzzziiiooung, raconté par Laurent de Wilde, et Samplerman seront les premiers invités, suivis de la #SessionLive du Crimi (France/Sicile). Dans sa banlieue natale du Queens, Robert Moog imagine l'équivalence entre le langage de la musique et celui de l'électronique. Il fabrique des boîtes métalliques qui produisent des sons jamais entendus auparavant. Sans ces machines à boutons reliés par des câbles, pas de vzzziiiooung ni de mouuuaaaaahh dans les musiques de Herbie Hancock ou des Beatles. Entre les mains des artistes qui s'en sont emparés, ses instruments ont créé le disco, la house, le rap. Bob Moog a pensé le futur de la musique.Les auteursLaurent de Wilde est compositeur, pianiste et écrivain. Il a été l'un des pionniers de la révolution électronique du jazz des années 2000 et continue de se produire activement. En tant qu'auteur, il a notamment publié une biographie de Thelonious Monk (Monk, Gallimard, 1997) et un ouvrage retraçant la trajectoire des inventeurs, au XXème siècle, d'instruments ou de machines à produire du son avec de l'électricité : Les Fous du son (Grasset, 2016). Œuvrant dans l'édition de bande dessinée alternative depuis les années 1990, Yvan Guillo alias Samplerman fabrique des images à partir de la transformation et de la duplication de comics mainstream des années 1950, y puisant des échantillons — des samples — qu'il réemploie dans ses propres créations.  Extrait« Car ces nouveaux instruments que sont les synthétiseurs tels que les fabrique Bob Moog sont le plus souvent associés à de la musique psychédélique, voire bruitiste, et les hippies qui la jouent sont bien loin des amateurs de Mozart ou Schubert que le label compte comme clients. Vendre un disque de musique classique synthétique à Columbia revient à proposer un deltaplane à Rolls-Royce, ce n'est tout simplement pas le même monde. Les titres des premiers disques de musique électronique faite grâce au Moog parlent d'eux-mêmes : The Zodiac : Cosmic Sounds, Strange Days ou Kaleidoscopic Vibrations… tout un programme ! On comprend pourquoi les huiles de Columbia ont fait la fine bouche. Mais bon, disent-ils, laissez-nous vos bandes, on va voir ce qu'on peut faire… La sortie est donc assurée a minima et l'espoir d'un succès, même modeste, n'est pas envisagé. Sauf que c'est un carton. Avec Switched-On Bach sorti en 1968, Wendy rafle quatre Grammy Awards et cinq ans plus tard, le disque est vendu à plus d'un million d'exemplaires. » Moog Plalylist- Hot Butter, « Popcorn », Popcorn, Interfusion/Musicor, 1972.- Mahavishnu Orchestra, « Birds of Fire », Birds of Fire, Columbia Records, 1973  - Donna Summer, « I Feel Love », I Remember Yesterday, Casablanca Records, 1977.- Kraftwerk, « Autobahn », Autobahn, Vertigo Records, 1974- Hal Blaine, « Love-In (December) », Psychedelic Percussion, Dunhill, 1967. Puis nous recevons le groupe Crimi dans la #SessionLive pour la sortie du 2ème album Scuru CauruScuru Cauru, des chansons sinueuses et envoûtantes inspirées par les montagnes sauvages de Sicile et les ruelles de Palerme et d'Oran. Après le succès de Luci e Guai sorti en 2021, Crimi poursuit avec Scuru Cauru son exploration des diasporas et cultures méditerranéennes, creusant ainsi d'autres fantasmes plus intimes à travers quatorze titres électrisants et magnétiques. Sur les traces de son héritage sicilien, le chanteur et saxophoniste Julien Lesuisse crée Crimi en 2018, et alors tente de se réapproprier une culture et une langue que sa famille immigrée avait dû travestir. Depuis plus de vingt ans, Julien Lesuisse est actif sur la scène musicale française au sein du dancefloor band Mazalda et aux côtés des chanteurs de la nouvelle vague du Raï algérien Cheb Lakhdar et Sofiane Saidi. Avec ce background miraculeux, il s'allie à l'éthio-jazz, funk et soul du guitariste Cyril Moulas, du bassiste Brice Berrerd et du batteur Bruno Duval pour former le groove diasporique de Crimi. Le groupe trace une ligne visionnaire qui connecte des traditions d'époques et de lieux différents et les reconstruit pour le monde interculturel d'aujourd'hui. Par ce syncrétisme du groove, Crimi réinvente une Méditerranée comme lieu d'échanges et de rencontres à l'opposé du théâtre des conflits et des divisions qu'elle est devenue.Titres interprétés au grand studio- Giannina Live RFI- A Sira Live RFI- Notti Ruffiana Live RFI. Line Up : Julien Lesuisse (chant, EWI), Brice Berrerd (basse), Damien Bernard (batterie) et Cyril Moulas (guitare).Son : Jérémie Besset et Mathias Taylor.►Album Scuru Cauru (Airfono 2023).

AFMC/PK Podcast Episode 41: Follow-up: Collaborating with Industry - Chelsea Fulham & Abby Doorn In this episode, we follow-up with our guests from episode 36, Chelsea Fulham and Abby Doorn, who are Air Force Contracting professionals that completed Education with Industry (EWI) fellowships. Chelsea's work with Amazon and Abby's work with Anduril really got them thinking about how collaborative industry is with its partners and how Government Acquisition may better take advantage of opportunities to collaborate with industry to meet its goals. As part of their EWI capstone project, Chelsea and Abby worked with Data Analytics students from UC Berkeley to develop a tool that would allow companies doing business with the Government a vehicle to provide feedback on the acquisition process. Chelsea and Abby share the data they received from industry partners and identify which indicators show the biggest opportunities for improving the acquisition timeline. They also give advice to future EWI fellows as they collaborate with industry to learn and improve the way we do business.

Firestein is the inaugural president and CEO of the George H. W. Bush Foundation for U.S.-China Relations (Bush China Foundation) and a founding and current member of the Foundation's Board of Directors. He is based in Austin, Texas.Prior to joining the Bush China Foundation, Mr. Firestein was the founding executive director of The University of Texas at Austin's (UT) China Public Policy Center (CPPC) and a clinical professor at UT's Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs. Before moving to UT, Mr. Firestein served as senior vice president and Perot Fellow at the New York City-based EastWest Institute (EWI), where he led the Institute's track 2 diplomacy work in the areas of U.S.-China relations, East Asian security and U.S.-Russia relations; Mr. Firestein, who held EWI's lone endowed chair, remains one of the longest-serving senior executives in EWI history.A decorated career U.S. diplomat from 1992–2010, Mr. Firestein specialized primarily in U.S.-China relations. Among the honors he garnered during his diplomatic career were the Secretary of State's Award for Public Outreach (2006) and the Linguist of the Year Award (1997). Toward the end of his State Department career, he served as an elected member of the Board of Governors of the American Foreign Service Association (AFSA), the union and professional association of the United States Foreign Service; in this capacity, he represented and worked to advance the interests of several thousand State Department constituents. He also served as the elected president of the large community associations of the U.S. embassies in Beijing and Moscow.Mr. Firestein is the author or co-author of three books on China, including two China-published Chinese-language best-sellers, as well as a large number of China-focused monographs, policy reports and articles (and publications on non-China-related topics). As a writer, Mr. Firestein broke new ground in a number of ways:  in the mid-1990s, he became the first foreign citizen to have a regular column in a People's Republic of China newspaper and the first foreign diplomat (and perhaps the first foreign citizen) to publish an original book in the country, among other milestones.  He is a prolific public speaker and frequent commentator in the U.S. and Chinese media. The Voice of America's Mandarin Service wrote in 2016 that Mr. Firestein is “one of the world's best non-native speakers of Mandarin Chinese”; early in his career, he interpreted for dozens of top-level U.S. and Chinese leaders and officials. (Mr. Firestein also speaks Russian.)In the years since he left the State Department, Mr. Firestein has produced path-breaking Capitol Hill testimony, thought leadership and scholarship on a wide range of topics, including U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, U.S.-China trade, the role of national exceptionalism as a driver of major international conflict, the value of government, U.S. public diplomacy in the wake of 9/11 and the use of contemporary country music as presidential campaign communication. Numerous incumbent and former U.S. secretaries of state and national security advisors from both sides of the partisan aisle—along with multiple other incumbent and former U.S. Cabinet members, members of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, U.S. combatant commanders and other prominent U.S. figures—have lauded his contributions and achievements in the area of U.S.-China relations.In recent years, Mr. Firestein periodically has been invited to brief significant swaths of the U.S. investment community, including via the 20-20 Investment Association and the Pacific Pension & Investment Institute, which together represent well over $30 trillion under management, on China and U.S.-China relations.Mr. Firestein currently serves on the boards of directors or advisors of over a dozen foreign affairs-focused, business-focused, China-focused and Texas-focused U.S. non-profit organizations. Of particular note, he is one of the few Americans who is concurrently formally affiliated with two different U.S. presidential legacy entities (the Bush China Foundation; and the LBJ School of Public Affairs, where he serves on the Dean's Advisory Council). He is also the only non-profit executive ever elected to the Board of Directors of the Texas Association of Business, Texas' influential chamber of commerce. And he is a member of the founding, and current, Board of Directors of the U.S. Heartland China Association, where he serves as the inaugural chairman of the policy committee.Mr. Firestein was a member of the graduate faculty of The University of Texas at Austin for a total of four academic years, most recently from 2017 to 2019.  He was also the first foreign diplomat ever to teach courses and coach debate at MGIMO (now, MGIMO University), Russia's premier foreign affairs training ground.A native of Austin, Texas and current resident of the Austin area, Mr. Firestein holds a bachelor's degree from Georgetown University and two master's degrees from The University of Texas at Austin, as well as various advanced training certifications from the National Foreign Affairs Training Center of the U.S. Department of State.

Anand Wilder has released his debut solo album after the breakup of the band Yeasayer.  I Don't Know My Words (written and recorded throughout lockdown) is full of great, wide-angled pop, which may look to 1970s hippie music and Indian popular cinema. In his quest to go back to songs that were “light on electronics and experimentation,” and “heavy on acoustics and vocals,” Wilder has said he was inspired by The Beatles, Cat Stevens, and Fairport Convention, (interview with NME.) On the record, I Don't Know My Words, Wilder plays all instruments, including mountain dulcimer a la Joni Mitchell, twelve-string guitars, plucked cello, bowed acoustic guitars, and tumbling, song-serving drums. For the Soundcheck Podcast, Anand Wilder and his band play some of these songs from his studio, in arrangements including mountain dulcimer and steamy EWI (electronic wind instrument.) – Caryn Havlik Set List: “Fever Seizure,” “Get More Than My Share,” “Half Brother” Watch "Fever Seizure": Watch "Get More Than My Share": Watch: "Half-Brother":
