SONIC TALK - Inside Music Technology midierror meets... JOMOX - 30 Years of Iconic Techno Machines
In this episode, we speak to Jürgen Michaelis of JOMOX; the creator of some of the most essential and iconic techno machines over the last 3 decades, including the MBase, XBase, AlphaBase, Moonwind, M.Brane, Sunsyn, T-Resonator, and Resonator Neuronium (the latter is a neural network synth). We speak with Jurgen about how he got started, modding TR-909s and other gear, and discuss the polyphonic harmonic distortion he built into a guitar in 1988.
Jurgen single handedly runs JOMOX - designing the internal PCBs and electronic circuits, as well as creating their incredible casings, forming the UI/UX and much more - certainly a man of many talents! Users of his equipment include Prince, Trent Reznor, Depeche Mode, Aphex Twin and anyone you’d care to mention in electronic music. We also discuss some of his art projects and installations as well as the benefits of meditation, and what else he’s working on.
