Howa EP 135 - Suzanne Ciani

What a treat it was to speak with the absolutely wonderful Suzanne Ciani who's really a unique and outstanding woman in the world of electronic music. We get into her early use of psychedelics and chat about spirituality and the inner "little voice" which is her guide in all things. We discuss eternal sounds, how her LP "Seven Waves" was constructed from a huge manuscript. We listen to her snoring cat and chat tennis. In fact there's a lot of tennis talk here which is definitely a first and an area Suzanne is very passionate about. Of course we talk about the exceptional Don Buchla and some of the excentric ways in which his modules behave even from one unit to the next. We also explore his attire. It's amazing to think of the time she came up in time when synthesizers were first emerging and nobody had heard these vast, pure and electric vibrations that were really unlike anything that had come before. In this day and age so much it's taken for granted and yet it all returns in the end to the sea. To the ocean waves which of course she's so known for coaxing in synthetic form so deftly. Im so glad I got to spend a little time with the brilliant Suzanne Ciani. ____________ Thanks to Ableton for their kind support.
