Jim Schoenecker / Pressboard – “Keeping it 100”

With a musical history rooted in experimental electronics, minimalism and techno, Jimhas now found himself deep into Buchla. Drawn to the incredible sound and superioruser interface, he started with a Music Easel and now is working with full 100 and 200Series systems.

In addition to his solo work, Jim had performed / recorded with: Sample and Fold,Collections of Colonies of Bees, Volcano Choir, Bon Iver, Dartanjal, Jon Mueller, MarcusSchmickler, Bhob Rainey and James Plotkin among others and had released music on:Zod, Toxic Recordings, Jagjaguwar, Nobody Owns Records, Table of the Elements,Addict Records, Topscore USA and Crouton Records.

“After building up the 100 series system I started to apply some of theconventions that I’ve used working with my 200 Series system. I learned that,because of the 100 Series early designs and limitations, these conventions andideas quickly turned into something really different… and wonderful.”
