In part one of a series, XLR8R Technology editor Ken Taylor takes you on a tour of one of electronic art’s finest facilities, Asphodel and Recombinant Media Labs. Comprised of an unprecedented 16.8.2 -channel, 10-screen surround-cinema performance environment with an external control room, a suite full of new and old synthesizers (all in mint condition), a DVD- and CD-mastering studio, and a recording studio with top-of-the-line equipment spanning nearly every era of electronic music, Asphodel and RML is a sound artist’s dream come to life. While the technology is impressive, it’s only one aspect of what makes these studios special. We’ll explore the facility further in future episodes.
