  • Limited run of revamped Sonicware ELZ_1 synth launched by former creatorThe ELZ_1 Play – an upgraded version of the Sonicware ELZ_1 synthesiser – which itself is currently out of production – has been launched in a limited run by a creator who worked on the original.

    The ELZ_1 was released back in 2019, and eventually ceased production due to chip shortages which affected a multitude of global brands.
    Now, all the same magic of the ELZ_1 returns in the brand new Play edition, created by Dr Yu Endo, who worked on the original. The ELZ_1 Play hosts 14 synth engines and 26 effects just like the original, but also hosts a new four-track looper that supports one-touch record, playback and overdub.
    It also hosts a velocity-sensitive keyboard, built-in stereo speakers, USB audio and MIDI. Check it out in the video below:

    The synth is being launched as part of Dr Endo’s Dr.’s Journey initiative, where he works on a mass of manufacturing projects such as electronic instrument development, limited edition models, goods, related accessories, sample packs and patches.
    The products made at Dr.’s Journey are mainly “trial products with a strong Endo flavour”, experimental products, and new ideas, so they are offered in small runs. The initiative keeps Sonicware “free to expand and support its current product range”.
    Initially limited to 200 units, the ELZ_1 Play run has been expanded to 250 following the initial allocation of pre-orders completely selling out. The extra 50 models are now available to pre-order with shipping expected to begin in November. It has not been confirmed whether or not the ELZ_1 Play will eventually be available as an official launch from Sonicware in the future.
    Pricing for the ELZ_1 Play sits at $599.

  • Kaytranada: “I want to be remembered as one of the greats in terms of producing”Canadian DJ and record producer Kaytranada has opened up about his career aspirations and the legacy he wishes to leave behind.

    READ MORE: Cuckoo: AI is “a reminder of how important it is to take your artistry seriously”

    In a new chat with Billboard, the Grammy-winning musician explains that while recognition from the Recording Academy was never his goal, being nominated for the award has, in some ways, changed how he approaches his music-making.
    “My idols, the people I looked up to, they never really had Grammys, so it was, whatever,” Kaytranada explains. “But being nominated, it’s a whole different thing. It kind of alters what you’re aiming for.”
    The musician admits that he’s now “trying to make Grammy-winning albums.”
    “When I won a Grammy, it really felt like I graduated or something. Like, I have something that means a lot. “Your name is in history forever.”
    Expanding on his career aspirations, Kaytranada says that “I just want to be remembered as one of the greats in terms of producing, not only dance and electronic but also just production in general,” adding that he’d love to produce an entire album for a pop star looking to reinvent his/ her sound.
    “It’s a matter of longevity, too – and, you know, just happiness. Like, as long as you’re comfortable and you’re happy with your life, that’s a form of success – but don’t forget the money part.”
    Elsewhere, Kaytranada also speaks about his journey to self-acceptance as well as the struggles he’s faced navigating the music industry as a gay producer.
    “Like, how are you going to accept a gay producer?” he recalls thinking. “That was not seen at the time. It seemed impossible.”
    To make matters worse, mainstream representations of gay men early in his career also proved difficult for Kaytranada to relate to.
    “I couldn’t relate to that. I just couldn’t, and I was like, ‘I cannot be gay,’ because I was not into those things,” he says. “That was really a confusing period of my life.”

  • Volumio launches AI discovery tool in its music player to help users to find “hidden gems”Italian audio company Volumio has launched Volumio AI, the latest version of its Music Player application. Now boasting a Supersearch feature, users can uncover musical “hidden gems” through the power of artificial intelligence.

    READ MORE: Cuckoo: AI is “a reminder of how important it is to take your artistry seriously”

    The Volumio Music Player ecosystem, which was launched back in 2013, allows users to access their local music files and stream from their favourite music services such as TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify and more, via one unified interface. ​
    In its latest upgrade, Volumio says it is “one of the first music apps in the world to fully integrate an AI search function”. The new Supersearch feature utilises Open AI’s ChatGPT, to point listeners in the direction of “the perfect soundtrack for every moment”. By describing what you would like to hear in just a few words, Supersearch will give users an array of recommendations.
    Other features of Volumio AI are:

    Related artists and albums: Suggestions for other artists and albums you might like are presented as you browse. If those related artists or albums are located in your library – whether in your favourite streaming service or local files – Volumio AI’s Supersearch will be able to access them.
    Infinity Playback: When you reach the end of your playback queue, new related tracks will automatically load.
    Redesigned user interface: Described as “clutter free”, its interface has been revamped to make navigating through artists and albums much more streamlined.

  • HBO’s ‘Succession’ and ‘The Last of Us’ lead 2023 Emmy nominationsThe 2023 Emmy Awards nominations were announced Wednesday, with HBO and Max earning the most nominations and Netflix trailing closely behind. HBO/Max nabbed 127 Emmy nominations, marking the 21st time that it has surpassed all networks and streaming services in a single year.
    Notably, HBO’s “Succession” had a record-breaking total, receiving 27 noms. Last year, “Succession” was the most nominated show of 2022 with 25 nominations and took home four wins. Overall, the show has won 13 Emmys. The hit drama series wrapped up its final and fourth season in May.
    Additionally, “Succession” saw three actors nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series— Brian Cox (plays Logan Roy), Jeremy Strong (Kendall Roy) and Kieran Culkin (Roman Roy). This is the first time that three actors in a series have been simultaneously nominated for the Lead Actor category.
    Other nominated HBO shows include the hit video game adaptation “The Last of Us” with 24 nods and “The White Lotus” with 23.
    Max’s (previously HBO Max) closest competitor in the race is Netflix, which earned 103 nominations thanks to popular titles such as “Wednesday,” “The Crown,” “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,” “Beef” and “Dead to Me,” among others.
    Hulu continues to grow its haul, getting 64 nominations this year after hitting a record of 58 in 2022. Hulu only had 26 nominations in 2021. “The Bear,” a new Hulu series, was the most nominated with 13 nods.
    Once again, Apple TV+’s “Ted Lasso” made up the bulk of the streamers’ 54 nominations, with 21 in total, a minuscule upgrade from its 20 nominations the year prior.
    In terms of free, ad-supported streaming services, The Roku Channel and Amazon Freevee got 12 and four nominations, respectively. Roku original “WEIRD: the Al Yankovic Story” got the bulk of the nominations at eight total, and Amazon Freevee’s “Jury Duty” had four.
    The 75th annual Primetime Emmy Awards are scheduled to air on September 18 on Fox. However, there reportedly may be a delay, given the ongoing writer’s strike.
    2023 Emmy Nominations by Streaming Service

    HBO/Max: 127

  • Disclosure’s new album, ALCHEMY, will feature no samples or collaborationsBritish electronic music duo Disclosure have announced their fourth album, ALCHEMY, with a release date of this Friday (14 July).
    READ MORE: Make synths like Disclosure
    Taking to Instagram to reveal the news, brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence shared the album artwork and track listing.
    Following their departure from Capitol Records, the pair are releasing ALCHEMY through Apollo Records – their own imprint – in partnership with AWAL. Looking at the track list below, you’ll notice that there are no collaborations on this album, unlike previous records that have featured the likes of The Weeknd, Miguel and London Grammar. They’re also avoiding the use of any samples on this album.
    In a statement, they say: “This record is a celebration of us feeling liberated right now. We’re no longer signed to a major record label. We’re not going to tour this record. We can do whatever we like and be super creative.”
    The new album reportedly boasts plenty of Howard Lawrence’s vocals, with production aficionado Guy Lawrence supposedly creating “everything from jungle breaks and trance-like supersaw synth riffs to rapid tempo four-to-the-floor club tracks.”
    In the post, which you can see below, Disclosure said “We love you all & thank you for the years of support. We’re just getting started.”
    Tracks on ALCHEMY are as follows:

    Looking For Love
    Simply Won’t Do
    Higher Than Ever Before
    A Little Bit
    Go The Distance
    Someday…
    We Were In Love
    Sun Showers
    Purity
    Brown Eyes
    Talk On The Phone
