Interview: Tim Exile and his Flow Machine

[@TehSyneS]

these two need to do an album

[@artao5]

That was pretty freakin sweet. Perhaps Gaz and Tim should consider touring together.

[@trevypoos]

That outro improv is so much fun. Two talented people doing their thing. More of this please.

[@MikleShnikle]

gaz is a good host for stuff like this

[@missingreels]

Woah! Gaz and Tim, a combo I never in my wildest dreams imagined I'd see, but am so damn glad it happened!

[@Rickyboa]

Fuck it. Just put out hour long videos of Gaz jamming with different guests and I could watch for days

[@mCKENIC]

Feck me! What an outtro. Wow, two brilliant musicians and improvisers. Huge fan of Tims stuff and to hear him and Gaz together is amazing! Thanks chaps.

[@RobinRimbaudScanner]

A truly joyful encounter and I especially enjoyed Gaz slip sliding some funky bass into the close. Beautiful guys!!

[@hazymind8684]

that Jam at the end was so good

[@MarcelMonoMixes]

The enthusiasm of both of them is infectious :) Looking forward to the next part!

[@DowntownDigitalUK]

There is Tim Exile and then all of us mere mortals ... went to a workshop with him in London and it was magical

[@aladaris]

Woa, awesome final performance More of this please!

[@diglet553]

Happy to see Tim talking about his setup in depth. I remember seeing his NI demo when I was a teenager and being fascinated by it.

[@krakapoww]

Reminds me of when i worked in a factory. Sometimes the machines would be in sync for just a moment and it was bliss

[@krakapoww]

Also, first company to put this kinda stuff in a workstation gets my hard earned $$$

[@robbarooo]

OMGaz...insanity at the end. Holy merciful moses.. Nice performance.

[@wernerhaider2338]

Thank you, thank you and thank YOU! Im a Tuba player and videojournalist here in Vienna. I got into performing with live electronics when I replaced my electric bass with a Push in our Prog Rock band. Since then, I am working on building a live set with Tuba, mic and electronics. Thanks for the inspiration, additional tips and tricks are highly appreciated! Aside the technical aspects like mic bleeding, looping vs. premade arrangement ("playback"), people here in Vienna are philosophically stuck either with acoustics or eloctronics only. I want to embrace both aestetics :-) Thank you, Tim, for the Finger and the Mouth! For me, they are a swiss army knife, just like Ableton!

[@tziirkq]

You sound like the type of guy would enjoy a bit of Rhys Chatham.

[@markwilliamson6884]

Performance at the end was ace!

[@RheyneMusic]

Incredible. Thanks for posting this!

[@charlescowper]

aw i went to school with Tim, i still have an old cassette of tunes somewhere

[@khiner]

whooooaaaaa! So glad you came on the show Tim! Been looking forward to you Flow v2 for a long time! I got a Seaboard Rise with similar aims at using its 6D control surface in interesting ways. Also, would love to have a look at your Reaktor code if you'd care to publish ;) ;) :P

[@monkeytheo]

Wow! What an energetic welcome! Lovely! And the whole presentation was fun, too.

[@Echolox]

What a surprise to see Tim here! Great performance :)

[@user-yo1cv2me5l]

nice jam at the end

[@TheDazlermac]

Great work guys

[@cpuassassin1422]

Wish he would make another album even though this fun to watch I need something more cohesive family tree is brilliant.

[@megadaveaction]

CPUassassin 1 Pro Agonist absolutely blew me away in 2004 or whenever it came out. Experimental d and b at its finest.

[@MisterNiles]

Dammit! You just answered my google search that I was about to do. I thought this video must mean another album! WTF?!?! His recorded output is great. Pro Agonist is one of my all time favorites. I wish he were more prolific.

[@MisterNiles]

When it came out, I hadn't done any psychedelics for 20+ years. I had put the album on my iPod, but had yet to listen to the CD. We had a power outage and I had nothing to do, a hit of acid and an ipod full of music. I put Pro-Agonist on and closed my eyes. It was a good day. I listened to the album several times that day. As you might imagine, this album has special significance to me :)

[@halcyondaystunes]

What a pleasant surprise, this was great... Beardyman next ;) Loved Tim's work with Imogen Heap

[@e1beats]

That was unbelievable!

[@harrymerchant8944]

The Jam Was excellent guys, 10/10. Im fussy as fuck, but that shit was damn good. There was that symbiotic thing going on there that not all musos have....u know what I mean. And older Beardy you sure do have the groove and the chops to back it up. I could barely fault a note. Must be the beard!

[@FinnBaygan]

great interview, vera interesting! little tip: you can set most tvs into something like gaming mode and it will shorten the delay of the image tremendously!

[@cpuassassin1422]

Tim is awesome.

[@mijaba]

dude that jam WAS intense!

[@Unifono2012]

brilliant video. great guys, great jam. very inspiring

[@RobertKildoo]

so good

[@adenning96]

outro was going great before it got over complicated :p but hey that's being in the moment for ya. great stuff!

[@AndrakarVideo]

Wow. Two genius at work.

[@m2lawren]

Well that was amazing!

[@InkyDaCaT]

I had never heard of Tim before, what a nice chap, really cool, and brilliant jam!

[@Drkayb]

Awesome outtro. A chordial transition for example G-Am would have taken it to another level.

[@MartinBaldock]

Love it!

[@mej6519]

Love the outro. Mad Bois :-)

[@user-yo1cv2me5l]

dope, some day we will actually understand

[@lordundhimself1310]

Well that outro was awesome

[@ashleyjamesbrown]

nice Project Rockpool placement ;-)

[@rrjanik]

High five! Coolest video I've seen in a while

[@SuperDanMan83]

that was hot!! the outro

[@pwinterhalter]

Play out was awesome, you 2 need to start a band

[@solaryzer]

Great performance :-)

[@tcotco1085]

Is this the same commercial version of flo

[@paintingwithnoise]

Tim Exile needs to partner with somebody to make a piece of performance hardware/sequencer/sampler device.

[@cresshead]

crazy good

[@emexldj]

Excellent impression of Imogen Heap

[@joserendons]

I wish Native Instruments releases the complete Flow Machine, That would be awesome

[@andersingram]

very inspiring

[@raffitchakmakjian]

nice to see Tim is a normal human being. I always thought of him as an NI product.

[@muzikman2008]

Cool stuff I liked that :-)

[@lostboy5861]

Damn screw what anyone says that performance was dope Quirks and All

[@TheDavidPoole]

I think you guys should get together for some studio and live work. You are both masters at the top of your respective games. It's a go for Electrodelic Psychotronic music

[@mashedandconfused]

Top top top 🙏

[@juanv7822]

They did in 14:10

[@robertsyrett1992]

What the flow?!?!

[@XHALE303]

Beardyman meats SonicState :)

[@motherbrain2000]

I want gaz in my band

[@chrissomers-oco8163]

7:48 :: acid kicked in

[@techpsy]

[@timpig3000]

Is Gaz Tim's dad? The truth must be known, the people demand it.

[@kcdakrt]

Embrace the dongle!

[@joanie-music]

LOL... of course his friend is Imogen Heap! LOLOL

[@tonhueb]

moar!

[@yirambo2201]

this flow machine is impressive, but the sounds will always stack up, so in the ends its always a big noisy mess

[@johnsch8634]

What sort of horrible noises is Gaz making? It's very cringeworthy.

[@johnathantyrer6077]

overkill...if I smash all the pads on my push 2 then I can sound crappy like this, make some proper music or just don't bother...who agrees

[@BenAndAlexander]

So good

[@rrjanik]

High five! Coolest video I've seen in a while
