The last time I visited the @buchla_archives I recorded a bunch of improvisations on the Touche, an incredible (and very rare) instrument built by Don Buchla and David Rosenboom in the early 1980s.

I just shared a video of one of these improvisations on my YT channel, and next week (Tues. Jan 20th) I’ll be sharing an in-depth overview of the Touche’s history and functionality.

Go to the link in my bio for the direct link to the full video, and while you’re over on YT hit subscribe so you don’t miss out on the deep dive as well!

Such an honor to be able to spend time researching this instrument and getting to know it. I’m excited to share some of its fascinating sounds and history with you soon!

Special thanks to @gastonsounds @buchla_archives and @david_rosenboom for their collaboration and support on this project!
