	Ondioline
		The Ondioline, which had a sound very similar to the clavioline, was invented in 1947 by Georges Jenny of France.
		When brand new, the ondioline sold for the equivelent of U.S. The ondioline made it's huge debut in the United States in the Stanley Kubrick film "Spartacus," starring Kirk Douglas and released in 1960.
		The ondioline was also made popular by French band Kilopop on "Skymen" (written by Geoff Goddard of "Telstar" fame) which made the French Top 10, and by Jean Jacques Perrey, an instrumental Moog enthusiast.

	Perrey and Kingsley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jenny was the inventor of the Ondioline, a vacuum tube-powered keyboard instrument that was a forerunner of today's synthesizers and was capable of creating an amazing variety of sounds.
		Its keyboard featured a very unique feature: the keyboard was suspended on special springs that introduced a natural vibrato, if the player moved the keyboard from side to side with their playing hand.
		The result was a beautiful, almost human-like vibrato that lent a wide range of expression to the Ondioline.

		Another interesting series of recordings were the ones using the Ondioline (an electronic keyboard invented in the 40's by Georges Jenny recognisable for it's distinctive vibrato that was extensively used in sci-fi and terror movies.
		Some of the most reputed musicians who played the Ondioline were Jean-Jacques Perrey and Marty Manning.
		Other important electronic related works were the ones related with the creation of sound effects and samples -with artists like Jim Fassett, Michel Magne and Dean Elliott -.

	Jean Jacques Perrey's Autobiography, Part One (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		He had invented the "Ondioline," which may be considered an ancestor of the modern synthesizer.
		I preferred the Ondioline, which on its small keyboard allowed one to produce new and original sounds as well as sounds from existing instruments such as the violin or flute.
		I was fascinated by the Ondioline and felt it had a great future.

		Jenny was the inventor of a rudimentary form of synthesiser known as the Ondioline, a vacuum tube instrument that he first developed in 1938.
		It was controlled by an eight-octave keyboard much like that of an organ or piano, and was capable of simulating conventional instrument sounds (such as violin or flute) which could be further nuanced with vibrato by horizontal movement of the player's fingers on the keyboard.
		He perfected a two-handed performance style where the young Frenchman would block the chords of a piece with his left hand on the piano while sketching an ethereal melody with the Ondioline (or Pianoline as it was known) with his right hand.

		Stereolab's music would not only spawn dozens of imitators, but the very stuff they drew inspiration from (Esquivel, Can, Moondog, Os Mutantes) was suddenly the starting point for any self-respecting hipster's record collection.
		The album's centerpiece is, of course, the thrilling 18-plus minutes of "Jenny Ondioline" - less a song than a ride you will enjoy taking over and over and over as it pulses and surges along.
		They changed directions a couple of times after releasing this gem before settling on a jazzier and less noisy sound, which is of course disappointing, if only from the standpoint that the sound is more one-dimensional these days.

		If you can find it, there is a limited edition single for Jenny Ondioline that has a 3:51 edit of Jenny O and 3 rockin B-sides, most notably "French Disko", which later appeared in another version on Switched on Vol 2 on Drag City Records.
		Much of this album focuses on white noise that builds up as songs continue on, rather than have a crescendo (some songs have great crescendos too, though).
		Jenny Ondioline (part of which comes from the "Exploding Head Movie" b-side) is an 18 minute track comprised of likely no more than five chords--it is the buildup of white noise that keeps this song interesting, and it really is a great song.

		My favorite for today is "Crest." I'm not sure that it captures the essence of Stereolab, but it has all of the qualities that make me love them.
		"Jenny Ondioline" here too, although the fact that it appears to be so far in front is faintly unsettling.
		groove, but Jenny Ondioline is one of the, if not the, most blatant, and while what they do with it is wonderful, maybe it's a shame to state that that is the most representative song.

		To: dave.amels@sfnet.com Cc: analogue@hyperreal.com Subject: Re:Ondioline The Ondioline (also known as the pianoline) is a little monophonic triode lamp keyboard instrument.
		It was based on a pulse wave generator and a filter bank (to change the timbre).
		The Ondioline is much like a Ondes Martenot with better timbral capabilities.

	Stereolab : Oscillons from the Anti-Sun - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Oscillons is not limited to featuring only the B-sides: such familiar A-sides as "Jenny Ondioline," "The Noise of Carpet," "Ping Pong," and "Cybele's Reverie" are here next to such non-LP cuts as "Fluorescences," as well as a host of B-sides, some of which were featured on the 1998 Switched On comp, Aluminum Tunes.
		Nevertheless, it's hard to imagine that any fan who followed Stereolab with any regularity not having the great majority of this material, which surely is why the DVD was included with this set.
		It's a nice DVD, containing all of the promo videos from the mid- to late '90s -- "Jenny Ondioline" through "The Free Design" -- along with U.K. TV performances from the group's appearances on The Word and Later With Jools Holland.

		After the show he came to me and he said, "You have a fantastic instrument." It was an Ondioline, the early French synthesizer.
		The Volkswagon commercial was the first commercial I did in the United States, in 1961 with the Ondioline, but it had nothing to do with the Clio Award.
		When I finished my medical studies, I discovered the Ondioline, and I went into demonstrating for the inventor of the Ondioline.

		Some argue that the reason for the Ondes Martenot's success was that, unlike the theremin, it used a traditional keyboard layout, with a separate finger control for glissando and vibrato as well as keys to adjust the timbre.
		A rival instrument to the institutionally powerful Ondes-Martenot, the Ondioline achieved a little popularity in cabaret and popular music - and it was possibly the first instrument capable of imitating the sound of other instruments.
		Few working Ondiolines exist today, but one who has championed its cause is composer Jean-Jacques Perrey on his early albums with Gershon Kingsley like Kalaeidoscopic Vibrations and The In Sound From Way Out.

		You also get the US single version of "The Noise of Carpet", an alternative edit of "Jenny Ondioline" and an unreleased version of "Ping Pong", but again, these are almost identical to the album versions you probably already own.
		And yes, the featured version of French DisCo is the organ-heavy stomp that appears on the original Jenny Ondioline EP, as opposed to the janglier "French DisKo" that appears on Refried Ectoplasm.
		The DVD is interesting for the promos videos (although don't expect televisual masterpieces) and the two Jools Holland appearances, but the unlikely rendition of "French Disco" on Channel 4's "The Word" is the highlight of the package.

	AUTOBIOGRAPHY 1
		At this point I did not know a lot about music-and still don't, never having studied music seriously except for a 2-month stay at the Conservatory at Amiens where I was kicked out because of a rule forbidding students to perform in public.
		In Paris I had a true success with "Around the World in 80 Ways." I started out as opening attraction at theaters, but since I spoke English I went on to bigger European stages in Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, England, etc. Thus began an international career...
		In 1956 in Paris, I had the good fortune of meeting with the great singer/composer Charles Trenet, who was very impressed by the magical new sounds of the Ondioline.

	Jean Jacques Perrey
		Inspired by inventor Georges Jenny, Perrey became the greatest proponent of the Ondioline, exporting it to the U.S. and introducing its spacey sound to American pop.
		His first album with Gershon Kingsley, The In Sound from Way Out, is one of the milestone albums of space age pop, and his last Vanguard album, Moog Indigo, is still sampled by DJs today.
		A chance meeting with Jenny in 1952 introduced Perrey to the Ondioline, a tiny keyboard that could produce fascinating flute-like sounds full of vibrato.

	AUTOBIOGRAPHY 2
		It must have brought me some luck, because the next year I appeared at the Olympia Theater (the greatest musical hall in Paris) with Edith Piaf.
		There was no note enclosed-only a round-trip plane ticket with an open return date, plus one word written (with big felttip pen) on the envelope: "COME!" And thus began the fairy tale...
		In his building, he had set up an experiemental recording studio completely equipped with everything I had ever dreamed of: tape recorders, various musical instruments, all the electronic keyboards existing at the time (Allen, RMI, Hammond, Martin, etc).

		The ondioline, a small electronic keyboard instrument invented in the 1940s by Georges Jenny, holds a special place in the hearts of space age pop fans.
		On the other hand, Alex North's score for the Kirk Douglas-Stanley Kubrick spectacle, "Spartacus," released in 1960 (MGM), claimed to be the first use of the Ondioline on a major American recording.
		The liner notes consistently identify Winding as the player, but Jack Diamond says that Jean Jacques Perrey himself claims to have been the performer, and that makes a little more sense.

	The Austin Chronicle Music: Record Reviews
		For the first time ever, the "Jenny Ondioline" basement tapes and the Switched On unreleased demos are available domestically.
		The droning, stop-start bliss-groove that defined Stereolab on 18-minute flagship "Jenny Ondioline" and other early work was actually pioneered by Neu!, a duo of Krautrockers who released three truly seminal albums from 1972-75, which until now, were only available at exorbitant import prices.
		Still, throw on "Hallogallo" off Neu!'s debut, and just try to pretend the head-bobbing beat, rhythm, and chord changes, even the drum fills, aren't a mirror image of "Jenny Ondioline." Yup.

	keymap records gallery of avant garde rarities
		I was pleasantly shocked to discover on this innocent-looking radio transcription disc an entire repertoire of avant garde compositions for the Ondioline (the early electronic keyboard instrument built in 1940 by Georges Jenny and popularized by Jean-Jacques Perrey and Esquivel).
		There are also a few tracks for the crystal organ (one of the Structures Sonores sound sculptures built by Bernard and Francois Baschet), including 1 brief piece (Impromptu) that was never officially released on any of the Lasry-Baschet lps.
		It's mind-boggling to think that at the legendary 1958 Brussels World's Fair, attendees could stroll from exhibits on experimental instruments featuring the Ondioline, Les Structures Sonores, and Julian Carrillo's Gold Medal-winning 16th-tone piano to the groundbreaking multimedia installation at the Philips Pavilion created by Le Corbusier, Iannis Xenakis, and Edgard Varese.

		At that time, I showed the Ondioline in big European fares, and everywhere people were enthusiastic, except in Paris where they didn't like hearing some banjo or saxophone sounds coming from a keyboard.
		It ended up that one day Cocteau said to me ëI'll never have a career in France, because unfortunately french people are not open to these kind of thingsí.
		In Computer Music Journal, you say that the Ondioline is a ëlow-costí instrument, as with many analog instruments.

		It makes for fascintating reading: http://go.zibycom.com/members/002222119/Site4/maxrunaway.html I've no doubt the studio had an Ondioline, and may have even claimed it to be the one used on "Runaway", but I'd run with Max's account of the recording session.
		My memory is that the "Rube Goldberg device" at Allegro was a Mellotron, not an Ondioline.
		Of course the most interesting instrument at Allegro was the subway noise passing through the floor into the studio.
