ESKMO feat. in Retronyms Release EP iPhone App

Retronyms have teamed up with musicians Eskmo, Exillon, Jneiro Jarel, and Starkey to release Outer Spaces, an EP in which all the tracks used Retronyms' iPhone app DopplerPad in their production.

 DopplerPad is a synthesizer-based instrument inspired by tools such as the Korg Kaossilator and the Yamaha Tenori-On. It mimics the standard DJ setup of a mixer with turntables on either side, and is complete with over 40 instruments, a gate arpeggiator, loop export via wifi, instrument and effects editors, and Audio Copy and Audio Paste with compatible apps.

"Because we designed DopplerPad to be a tool professional musicians can use, we thought it'd be great to put together a compilation that showcases just what musicians are doing with it," says Retronyms co-founder Zach Saul.

So Retronyms contacted the artists involved, and they agreed to contribute tracks to the project. Some artists chose to use DopplerPad for the majority of the track production, while others used DopplerPad for sketching out ideas and then imported loops to a DAW for further manipulation.

For example, Eskmo relied heavily on the sampler while using DopplerPad, and Exillon and Starkey used Logic and other DAWs in addition to DopplerPad to create their Outer Spaces tracks.

Starkey (P.J. Geissinger) says about the experience, "Of the iPhone apps I've had the pleasure of messing around with, DopplerPad is by far one of the most fun and engaging. It took me a few train trips to really wrap my head around it, I must admit. But after I realized that the app was built more around spontaneity and less about midi sequencing, I was creating interesting loops at a feverish pace."



Outer Spaces is the first EP to use an iPhone app as an instrument in every track, and it can now be downloaded free of charge from http://www.dopplerpad.com/outerspaces. Retronyms are also celebrating the Outer Spaces launch with a DopplerPad sale, taking 20% off its original price for a limited time.
