Joey Waronker's home studio

Joey (from Ultraista, Beck, etc) recently sold his home and the listing had photos of his home studio. A lot of parallels with Nigel, some of it undoubtedly influenced by Nigel.

Acoustic Energy AE1 speakers, along with Tannoy Gold monitors.

57 on the snare, facing straight across (not angled). AKG C12As on the toms, Coles 4038 as center mono overhead.

Gear wise, stuff that is similar to Nigel: UA 176 compressor, Roland Space Echo, Deltalab Effectron delay, API 550As, plus what looks like Sunset Sound (Demedio-modded API) 500 series preamps, Yamaha subkick, CMV 573 mic, R124 compressor and of course a pair of black UREI 1176s.

Stuff that's unique to Joey here: Chandler TG preamp channels, two pairs of Quad Eight modules, a pair of different Quad Eight 333 modules, Eventide Harmonizer H3000, Master Room XL-310, AEA R84 ribbon mic over the "Fibes" kit, Ampex MX-10 or MX-35 mixer, ACME Motown MTP-66 preamp, Auditronics console, pair of Neve 1073 modules, UAD interfaces and a Beyer M130/M160 set up in M/S configuration.

Primer operativo otorrino permitirá a afectados por incendio recuperar sus audífonos.

Nueva publicación en https://ct2.cl/f8

Primer operativo otorrino permitirá a afectados por incendio recuperar sus audífonos.

Gracias a una alianza entre el Servicio de Salud Viña del Mar Quillota Petorca, el Hospital Dr. Gustavo Fricke, la Clínica Alemana, Desafío Levantemos Chile y la empresa Auditron.

Una docena de pacientes llegaron muy temprano este sábado al Consultorio Adosado de Especialidades del Hospital Dr. Gustavo Fricke para acceder al primero de varios operativos orientados a diagnosticar y gestionar sus audífonos a quienes los perdieron en medio del incendio.

Así llegó María Gloria Pérez, acompañando a su mamá, Eva Rosa, de 92 años, a reponer estos valiosos equipos para recuperar su calidad de vida y reconectarse con su entorno: “Me parece muy bien, porque deberíamos tener esta oportunidad siempre. Muchas gracias.  Ahora van a hacerse el examen para saber cómo está su problema de audición”.

La se��ora Eva, como los restantes pacientes, accedió a todo lo que requiere, en una sola visita. Tal como lo explica la Dra. Dafne Secul, Subdirectora Médica del Servicio de Salud Viña del Mar Quillota Petorca, “este operativo hoy atenderá a personas que perdieron sus audífonos, personas con hipoacusia, y por lo tanto van a ser vistos hoy día por otorrino, por tecnólogo médico e incluso por el laboratorio que le va a entregar el audífono. De modo que en una atención va a quedar solucionado su problema de audición. Así que estamos muy contentos, con una tremenda generosidad han venido médicos, otorrinolaringólogos, tecnólogos a ponerse a disposición de estos pacientes”.

Todo ello, gracias a la alianza entre el Servicio de Salud Viña del Mar Quillota Petorca, el Hospital Dr. Gustavo Fricke, la Clínica Alemana, Desafío Levantemos Chile y la empresa Auditron. La Dra. Tatiana Aldunate, Subdirectora Médica, afirma que “estamos felices de formar parte de esta cadena solidaria, después de esta tremenda tragedia, y ser anfitriones de un equipo tan destacado como otorrinos de la Clínica Alemana, que han puesto su corazón solidario a disposición de los más afectados. Así que felices de poder acogerlos y entregar la infraestructura y el equipo humano nuestro para este desafío”.

Socios en la solidaridad

Tras diversos operativos en diferentes partes del país, la Clínica Alemana se hizo presente a través de sus especialistas. Karen von Schwedler, encargada de Comunidad de la Clínica Alemana, comenta que en el marco de una antigua alianza con Desafío Levantemos Chile, se pusieron a disposición de las necesidades de los damnificados: “Imaginamos lo difícil que es estar en una situación de damnificados, tener que estar en un albergue o en la casa de un familiar y además no escuchar nada porque perdiste tu ayuda técnica, que es súper importante. Entonces, de verdad, por eso además va a ser toda la atención en el mismo día y en siete días los van a llamar para entregar el audífono. Es súper importante poder ayudarlos lo que más se puede ahora”.

Por su parte María Francisca Hierro, coordinadora del Área de Salud para la Clínica Alemana de Desafío Levantemos Chile señaló que “es una alianza virtuosa donde cada una de las partes pone su granito de arena para que en conjunto, entre todos, podamos entregar esta ayuda. Sin la colaboración y el apoyo del Servicio de Salud, del hospital, obviamente nada sería posible. Entonces cuando se trabaja mancomunadamente de manera tan linda, tan unida en pro de los demás, sin duda para nosotros es fundamental. Nada lo podríamos hacer solos, todo es un trabajo en conjunto y lo agradecemos de todo corazón”.

Parte de la atención de los damnificados estuvo a cargo de los especialistas en otología, como el Dr. Jorge Preisler, que ya ha participado en otros operativos para diagnosticar hipoacusia: “Para nosotros también es importante y yo creo que para nosotros es un privilegio. Nosotros vivimos y trabajamos en una clínica que es distinta y la gente más necesitada está acá. Por lo tanto, tenemos que estar acá, si es posible, como no, encantadísimo”. Así también lo sintió Cristian Martínez, tecnólogo médico: “Cuando ocurrió esta tragedia, lo primero que pensé fue qué lástima no poder ayudar con mi profesión porque es muy específica. Yo me dedico a la audiología y cuando me llamaron de la clínica para hacer este operativo yo dije inmediatamente que sí. Y cuando me preguntaron, yo pregunté ¿y qué fin de semana es? Me dijeron el 2 de marzo. El único, entre comillas, inconveniente, que no lo era, es que estoy de cumpleaños. Aun así, aquí estoy. Y vine con mi hijo y todo a participar de esto porque no, no me puedo restar de ninguna manera. Es un agrado estar acá, haciendo esta gestión”.

When Its Time To Walk Away Pt.4

Preview to The Long Goodbye

Back to Part III

All Men Are Brothers

Karma: There was this great kung fu western flick my god brother Kenny brought over called All Men Are Brothers: Blood of the Leopard which was adaptation of the Chinese classic Water Margin. It was the story of a high level government official who must choose between his position and his allegiance to a rough street monk who is very anti-corruption in the government. It represented so many relationships at that time. My god brother Wayne was really loud and boisterous, but when I was around he was always calming me down to learn discretion. When he died of cancer in 1997 it put a large hole in my heart. Somehow I ended up becoming that person that was calming folks down and was caught between the diplomacy and the ethical outrage of the people I was around. We would leave shows in San Jose, San Luis Obispo or San Antonio. It would be 3am as we drove home. Somehow at every gas station there was a group of young men about to fight. Somehow there was some kid at an IHOP looking at his pager like “I’m going to get revenge”. Somehow I always seemed to put myself in the middle and talk them down. Somehow I never got shot.

Koncepts: just a perfect song man. we were all really vibrating on the same frequency. I love the little glass clinks and crowd ambiance from the sample. and the kick drum knocks so hard. that’s that Bay Area shit man, a mellow ass sample and deep bass.

Ashes To Ase

Karma: We would perform a lot in the “hip hop” room at raves. That was the culture of the 90’s. Hypnotic hated it because he didn’t feel techno. However to be quite honest, the women at raves were thousand times better looking and more stable than the women who went to hip hop. The baddest of them used to hang in the “jungle” room – a rough amalgamation of actual jungle, trip hop, drum and base as well as what would eventually be dub step. Kirby and I loved going back forth over those beats. We could rap for hours over the stuff. For me it brought me home to Jupiter, Florida. It put me in the red clay of Georgia. It gave me the woods of Mississippi. I loved obscure southern rap and especially enjoyed the bounce aspect. I also appreciated the underestimation that California and New York put upon southern rap. It paralleled the mistake many crews in the Bay ran into. They dissed us on tape, we responded by snatching the mics at their show and serving them. Then they took it outside to battle and got demolished. Then they wanted to throw hands and lost there too. This track is a narrative to that. At the time we wouldn’t have seen it that way.

Koncepts: I feel a way about this song. It’s fucking amazing - the beat, the rhymes, the hook… my god. and when we dropped this at a show? bedlam. but it has a kind of ignoble history. My partner Zvi and I had this Delia Gartrell 45, which is this brutal ballad about a woman’s son dying in the Vietnam war, and we chopped it real slow. Zvi had the idea of chopping up Skull Snaps and doing a bounce pattern with it. It was unique, no one was doing bounce drums with samples, especially not old school breakbeats. Anyway, we kinda fucked up the money because we also gave this track to Mazzi [rapper with our other group the Soul Purpose] and it was like, ok, let’s see who does what with it… Mazzi made an incredible track called “1 and 9” about being from the hood in Jersey. It was super ill. So we had this issue, who could use the beat? Nobody even cares about shit like that anymore, but back then it was a real problem. Zvi wanted to roll with Mazzi’s version, I was on the fence. Anyway, I feel like that disagreement was another one that ended up torpedoing the project. And what’s sad is that neither song ever came out - the Soul Purpose project fell apart not too long after and the album we were working on never made it out of the demo stage. Nowadays I prefer “Ashes” to “1 and 9”. But at the time I couldn’t call it.

My Morning Star

Karma: Perhaps the most honest writing anyone was doing in (w)rap™ at that age. I was in my early twenties trying to understand what it meant to be a man while facing a divorce like end to my long term relationship. There were some rules we made up to protect our esteem. One of them was we wouldn’t date women we met in the industry because it led to hardship later. I think that put so much expectation on the women we fell in love with outside of music that when those relationships crumbled it hurt us even more. On top of which, Hypnotic and I were facing this same debacle every time: why does it seem like self-control and discipline gets punished. Simply put, we both were in faithful parties in long term relationships that ended when our romantic partners were not faithful. That combined with life in show biz, turned us bitter when we stuck to the honor code. 

Koncepts: this beat is mad mournful with that one drawn out note that descends and ascends in the chords. I used an SP1200 on a lot of the Auditron drums courtesy of my partner Zvi and you can hear the programming gets a lot better and the drums are chunkier. Ka and Ba perfectly wrote this for how the beat felt to me. Vulnerable and hurt but still standing strong. It’s a shame the project never came out because there are so many tracks that I felt were just the perfect distillation of a feeling, this was one of those. Probably my personal favorite now.

Ba

Koncepts: I love this song man. Ba really showed his heart on it. And it takes skill to rap over something like this which is kinda mellow and laid back but not like, sad or down. the loop just gets me in a zone; very based. this might have been an intro beat or slated for Per Aa Ra’s project originally. There were earlier takes that I felt like Ba nailed it a bit better. But you couldn’t save takes back then and we had that stupid belief that a) we have to deliver everything in one take and b) we can definitely do the next one better. so it goes.

Karma: I remember when this was done and I would drive around with mix downs, this was the soundtrack to getting through traffic. It became synonymous with “things are going to be all right”. I struggled for many years to explain what this meant without falling into esoteric answers or metaphysics. One thing my Dad was very good at impressing upon me was “don’t feed steak to children” meaning don’t waste your time trying to explain complexities people don’t want to learn. In of myself, I was learning how to be more efficient and not waste my time. This song really gave folks a sense of optimism.

The Final Conflict

Karma: Why a final conflict? One thing I have come to terms with and this album should evidence – I can see things before they happen. I am not going to spend a single second of time on weirdos defending it. I will just state – people were downloading music from www.kemeticsuns.com three years before Napster. Towards the middle of 1997, something was changing in the Bay Area. I was starting to get fans who worked at something called a “tech company” who would invite me to work as a contractor. They had website that had millions behind them but they couldn’t tell you what they did all day. They wanted to pay me to tell them what was cool. More and more I saw a reliance on machines as the new free labor. The dot come boom was becoming a second gold rush and I was aware it had it limits. In 2017, the largest obstacle facing the American worker is not automation. It is the perception that automation demands a better quality of life for all. There are some very good thinkers on this subject but I would direct attention at Berkeley’s own Phillip K. Dick, Frank Herbert and William Gibson. 

The point being, the matter of artificial intelligence is not an if, it’s a when. Once this consciousness evolves, it will split in its belief systems. If humans can be cruel, please believe there are machine gods that can be crueler. I am reminded of the quote by Francis de la Rochefoucauld, “Man believes he has abandoned his vices when in fact they abandoned him long ago”. Now looking at where we are with a new year, self driving cars and a new a president, I suspect we are at the placed I had hoped to avoid. Maybe there are some jewels in here for our fans in the years to come.

The album in its entirety is below:

When It’s The Time To Walk Away PT. 5

Preview to The Long Goodbye

Back To Part IV

Kemetic Suns Photo Archive

Ultimately I believe it was this album that transitioned the Kemetic Suns. We didn’t break up. We didn’t quit. We moved on. The stresses of this album may have been too much. These songs were performed a lot and got us two label deals. Both deals had the same dynamic: this is GREAT. Then you get into the studio to re-record everything and the labels sends in their composition army to get hands on your publishing. Once the songs are done, the contract amendment comes and it requires 36 months of touring with a live band to play all the songs the label wants additions to with $30k of tour support split among 8 people. How many times do you do the same scenario before reaching insanity? How many times do you get bumped from your show time and not want to snap on everyone from the promoter to the venue? How many times do you choke a promoter for the money for your show money, plane ticket money, hotel money and per diem only to go on stage rapping about helping people before your mind fizzles? More and more. Also there was a reality that Koncepts and I came to realize at SXSW in 2001. We hated the road. Touring was living on the road. Living on the road was being a grown latch key kid stuck between parent’s homes. It was miserable. At 16 I was already thinking like a 26 year old. Imagine where my head was at 24, being asked to make drunk and high 19 year olds of suburbia happy on stage for 45 minutes night after night. Most of the guys who adored that life look like Larry Holmes now – flabby, sick, soft and slow to answer. Meanwhile Eclipse and I were making much larger checks pulling strings behind the scenes without needing to be in the spotlight.

Diagnosis

Perhaps the final moment for me was August 2004 when I discovered my mother couldn’t walk. She could barely eat much less explain the pain she was in. After seeing over twenty different doctors, it was clear my mother would need surgery and would need a full time caregiver. I made the announcement to the Kemetic Suns that I was bowing out to free up time for my mother. Mostly everyone was supportive. I disappeared as quickly as I emerged. During this time Kirby and Hypnotic did their Kirb and Chris album. 

In June of 2005, my father was diagnosed with stage two Alzheimer’s dementia. The doctor took his license on the spot and told us to focus on “quality of life” because they didn’t expect him to live past two years. My mother’s illness combined with my father’s diagnosis and the demons of the road pushed me over the edge. I crawled inside a bottle for a time. I was convinced that I had hurt my parents with my music. I burned my rhyme pads and decided to never write a rap again. When I emerged I had a new path and oath to keep to my father.

Over the next five years, I became a new person in learning to go from being a Kemetic Sun to being the best son I could be. I found that many of the skills I learned through the music, were transferrable to helping my father. I also learned a great deal about my willpower, drive and commitment. My father was and is my world. My reason for being. A strong, hard, magician of a man who was loved by all he came across; even his enemies had to respect him. In 1995 when I handed my father a copy of 30 Daze and A Plane Ticket I had no idea the journey I would take. When I asked him what he thought, he played the Daddy Please skit for me and asked if I was talking to him. I vehemently denied it but I was deeply hurt that he thought I was airing him out. I shouted him out at the end of the album but he didn’t seem to hear that. I don’t think he believed me. That never set well with me.

Quality Of Life

When my father died, I had a brand new appreciation. I couldn’t just nod. I had to act. I knew he deserved some act to offset the notion that a song had been laid against him. I began writing songs about caring for my father. When things got very bad, Koncepts and Peek started sending me beats. I don’t know why. They don’t either. We are all being polite around the fact that they were worried about me. I would drive my father around to different appointments and play the beats that I was given. Music was good for my father’s moods. During the late nights in the emergency room, I wrote science fiction in my head. This project ended up becoming The Paper Thrones. During the mornings when I was trying to pay for everything, I wrote rhymes as I drove. The combination opened my eyes to the amount of people who were just starting the journey I was on. More and more I saw signs of millions of people caring for a parent with Alzheimer’s and no one speaking for them; or to them. I knew I had to say goodbye to you fans, to my father and to any hold this disease thinks it may have over me. I will not die of Alzheimer’s. If I do, it is because I went down fighting and I hurt the hell out of it.

Sometime in the near future I will release to you this tribute called The Long Goodbye. A 21 track album that is both a tribute to my father and also my way of closure with the people I meet who tell me how much good Kemetic Suns did for their lives. This will be the solo album the fans were promised. It absolutely sounds like a Kemetic Suns album; I am told it sounds like a grown man Ambershine. I have ZERO interest in selling the album. My goal is to see how money we can raise to fight Alzheimer’s using this album. Some simple value proposition such as “If you donate $1 to this cause, you get a code to download the album”.

I hope this answered the questions. I hope this gave you what you were looking for. I hope you will join me one last time for The Long Goodbye.
