about

Evolutions (1987 aka Dawn in the Forest)
Roland D50, S50, MT32

This was my first demo for Roland Canada used as a tech showcase at the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) in Chicago in 1987.

It was the beginning of sequencer presentations that used no tape at all but played back the synthesizers and samplers “live” via midi communication. The thunderstorm sound effects are from a 1979 cloudburst in my backyard in Calgary that I had the good fortune to record. The melody came from an all night marathon prepping for the trade show.

Although we called the piece “Evolutions” Roland founder Ikutaro Kakehashi loved this piece so much he enthusiastically renamed it to the more visual title “Dawn in the Forest”. It was presented for several years in Japan to live audiences.
