Phonec 2: tempus aquis

by Madder Than You

So...I've been a Boards of Canada fan for many years.
There is just something that resonates in me with that sound...as I did go thru grade school in the late 60's and early 70's...all that source material and those sounds ARE TRULY touchstones from my past.
the bicycles. the filmstrips with the strange music. the public service announcements.
it all comes together to create a backdrop and a space where I keep MY memories..

While there HAVE been several wonderful sound sets created for other instruments like Massive and Sylenth that really do capture the feel of that sound, PsychicModulation created Phonec (and subsequently Phonec 2) VST Synth based upon that BOC palette. And the result of that creation yields not only BOC type sounds, but much more than that!!!

While I had initially planned to start working on a set for Phonec, once I got word that Phonec 2 was being put together, I held off a bit... It has been WELL worth the wait. Phonec 2 (and now, 2.1...) is amazing!

I am in the midst of putting the finishes on 'tempus aquis' sound set for Phonec2

Here are a few audio demos to hopefully showcase some of the wonderful results one can get out of Phonec2 and to give you an idea of the neighborhood in which 'tempus aquis' is located ;]

please stay tuned if you are interested in this sort of thing. There will be more audio and once the set is released, I will post links here too.
