5alad[inr012dvdr]5alad_-_Low res. graphics (Video) (February 15, 2010)

5ALAD "Low res. graphics" (Video)

5alad is the parallel project of Joan Malé (more known as Monoceros) using "obsolete" machines, that has been developing at the same time as the "ebay" orchestra has been growing. A project that in fact started in a tender age nearly 82-83 with a Commodore 64 and a Casio vl-tone. Closing the circle (or nearly), some years after, culminated with this work where some old computers and synths has been used, like the Commodore 64, the plus/4, Casio cz-101, Roland CR5000, Yamaha CX5M (more info at the credits) and some today´s plugins, using speech synths that was used by Kraftwerk at the time, and rhythm and synth soft developed in the 80´s that was used in platforms like Zx spectrum, MSX etc..

He also programmed his own synths to be used in laptops from that time. Not happy with all of this work, he programmed his own visuals, released in a separate DVD, to be played in live in real machines synchronized with actual soft. A hard work that has need about 1 and a half year.
"Low res. graphics" is a step away than chiptune, between "Beverley hills cop", "Miami Vice", Kraftwerk, Super Mario, OMD and of course today´s electro and IDM.

DVD includes 9 videos + credits programmed in a Commodore 64, Commodore plus/4, saved in a 5" floppy and talks about trascendental themes like the origin of humans or what to do in Calella de Palafrugell
