about

WHITE ALICE is a new session header for this series, and debuts with a double-album set of the first two Vibra sessions undertaken with the Roland Juno 106 - an iconic and immensely versatile digital polysynth, with an analog filter.

Before discussing the session and its approach, I feel it is relevant to first explain that the Juno is here in the White Pillar Workshop only because a close friend insisted upon giving it to me unexpectedly after we met up for coffee this past Summer. The finer details of why my friend did this are not something I fully know, but part of my reckoning with this unbelievable act of kindness is in how I'm using it in the studio.

Here, on these WHITE ALICE sessions, you can hear what is a deliberately careful hand, shaping the Juno only where and when I felt it necessary, and allowing the machine to breathe and express itself wherever possible. The Vibratelepathic series is designed with these types of approaches in mind, so the Juno is already well-suited to this thinking. It is truly one of the most versatile and beautiful sounding machines I've ever had the pleasure to play, and certainly one that I never thought I'd own. During these sessions, I tend to focus on reactionary decisions rather than fundamental changes, allowing pieces to flow between sections naturally, as a river might meander through different elevation levels and terrain. In this way, the Juno absolutely guides itself. It sounds and feels so certain of its path that I get a very deep sensation of the music making itself.

On a technical level, what you hear on the WHITE ALICE recordings is nothing more than the Juno 106, sequenced via the Arturia Keystep Pro, routed in stereo into my R-EW Audioholistics modular system and navigated in realtime via the assembled ecosystem of modulation and signal processing.

Listening to these sessions now, months later, and considering everything about them, I am convinced of the Juno asserting itself in both physical and philosophical splendor in my studio. Everything about it is emotive and distinct, bringing a surreal, unspoken familiarity with it that recalls past lives, displaced from home, exploring the natural world, getting a glimpse of a mountain top from some distance away, and suddenly knowing where you are, assured in your path, returning to the small village in the ravine that calls your name.

WHITE ALICE, now and forever, in all variations, is for R.G.

At a family get together we played track #1 for just over 3 hours at very low volume, barely within earshot. It worked! Richard Erickson
