Came here after watching a few Wendy Carlos interviews and I was pleased to find you. Excellent work.

[@Mattelica]

Thank you 👊

Same. Wonderful rabbit hole

[@RedShiftRR]

This cover is real horrorshow, hits me right in me gulliver. One of the best advertisements for Moog synths I have seen lately, gorgeous playing!

[@Mattelica]

Thanks 👊, as always I was just fiddling around a bit on the grandmother and discovered a patch that sounded like the opening "gong" type sound, so I went with it...

[@hristq-p8812]

I'm currently working on this in my Moog Little Phatty. Amazing machines.

[@laurencaulton103]

The first time I saw and heard Clockwork I almost passed-out. The sound is nearly too much to take. It's brilliant. What other sounds could match Kubrick's visuals?

[@spanky814]

My dad gave me a cassette tape soundtrack of this when I was a kid so it was pretty surreal as an older teen when I was finally allowed to watch it and realized what exactly my favorite songs were set to. Lol 🤣 gave me a deep appreciation for moog and Carlos outside of just soundtracks though.

[@SilverWrinkly]

I heard a sample and had to buy the CD, then the film was banned. I had to wait more than 20 years before I got the chance to see it. by then i could hum along to the whole CD. I watched the first few minutes and decided if I watched any mor, it would spoil my memories and the music so Still haven't seen it and never will.

[@ltnjones1714]

Great ! I’m a big fan of Wendy Carlos and your version is really awesome. Congrats.

[@Mattelica]

Thank you 👊

[@Psychlist1972]

Excerpt from "Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary - March" - in case you didn't know the name of the piece. Nice rendition :)

[@Mattelica]

Thanks!

[@offworldnetwork]

Great job

[@JanPBtest]

Henry Purcell, late 1600s. It's interesting how often Kubrick used Christian religious music for his films ("2001", "Shining" as well).

[@gerdforster883]

With an added bit of the dies irae sequence thrown in that does not appear in Purcell's score.

[@ulriklm1]

Wendy Carlos ❤️❤️❤️

[@JanPBtest]

Si Litvinoff's first choice for directing _A Clockwork Orange_ was Nicolas Roeg. But he declined as he was already busy preparing for _Walkabout._ So Kubrick was approached instead. Would be very interesting to see Roeg's _Clockwork_ :-)

And we sat in the Korova Milk Bar, trying to make up our razoodoks with what to do with the evening...

Amazing, thank you! This gave me the chills... You can even hear the Shining’s theme near the end...

[@bobmcmaster5132]

One of the best soundtracks ever.

Wendy ,the pioneer.

[@magicmulder]

They serve vellocet, drencrom, and minimoog which is what I was having.

[@raelwissdorf]

I remember myself having literally a trip by listening to Carlos' "Timesteps".

[@107nthGalaxy]

brilliant my father was involved on dubbing the music onto the actual film, back in the 70s

Hey ! It’s awesome . I search the preset for my grandmother , can you send me a mail for the preset for learn my synthetiser , please 👍🏼

[@Mattelica]

I did this video a couple years back... I don't remember the settings. I actually felt very lucky, I just twisted and turned the knobs til I got a similar sound to the original. One thing I do remember is that the oscillators were not in sync and that I detuned them to get that gong type bass sound...

[@DethTyrant]

this is so cool! bit of a stretch here but would you happen to have the patch for the grandmother. it sounds great.

the melody is called Dies Irae a classic piece of music symbolism used all over the place to signify death
