The Silver Apples
Article by Simeon Coxe of the Silver Apples about the history of the Simeon “synthesizer” from the July 1-14, 1969 edition of underground news and arts publication Other Scenes.
Plus a schematic of the Simeon synthesizer.

2 Chronicles 34: 4-8. "The Curtain Buckle."
Tumblr media
4 Under his direction the altars of the Baals were torn down; he cut to pieces the incense altars that were above them, and smashed the Asherah poles and the idols. These he broke to pieces and scattered over the graves of those who had sacrificed to them. 
5 He burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and so he purged Judah and Jerusalem. 
A number of kings so far have done this-raised up Baals and Asherah Poles and torn them down, running around town burning incense. Then not burning incense, then burning it again.
We are inching a little bit forward each time, but as in reality, the Tanakh says the effort is slow, laborious, often returning below the margin.
A Baal is a "god on the ground". We are many things, men can be quite ingenious and interesting, but we are not God. Our Authority can reach to the sky if we understand it properly, but it cannot exceed His. To understand God and measure the difference between Him and us, what is ethical sets the standard.
Loving-kindness is the core ethical virtue. Loving-kindness is closely linked with compassion in the tradition. Lack of compassion marks people as cruel. The Torah repeatedly commands the Prophets to protect the widow, the orphan and the stranger.
Worship of Baal and Asherah Poles, men with big cox, must be limited at the point this causes a breach of the above ethic. Our authority ends, it is suspended if this happens.
It is really quite easy to avoid breaking someone's heart. To foreswear heartbreak, the coming and going from and ethical pattern is the essence of what is called Josiah, "The cure for God's despair."
To start, one must lament one's past role's in it. To lament is different than to repent. To lament is to willingly accept what once was present is now gone, making a vow to move on:
6 In the towns of Manasseh, Ephraim and Simeon, as far as Naphtali, and in the ruins around them, 
7 he tore down the altars and the Asherah poles and crushed the idols to powder and cut to pieces all the incense altars throughout Israel. Then he went back to Jerusalem.
Manasseh= evaporate the past, to reign in the present
Ephraim= technologize the self
Simeon=Identify oneself with a saint
Napthali=and advance one's cognition
8 In the eighteenth year of Josiah’s reign, to purify the land and the temple, he sent Shaphan son of Azaliah and Maaseiah the ruler of the city, with Joah son of Joahaz, the recorder, to repair the temple of the Lord his God.
The Eighteenth Year has a Gematria of 9, (1+8) and is the time by which one should know the Torah.
The Gematria for this section returns 8917, חטאז‎‎, hataz, hat-yayaz, i.e., "that which holds the curtains back."
אחז
The verb אחז (ahaz), meaning to take hold of, seize or grasp, is used in pretty much any sense in which two naturally disconnected entities become firmly united.
Beams connect walls (or not - 1 Kings 6:6), cords hold curtains (Esther 1:6), and a footstool is attached to Solomon's throne (2 Chronicles 9:18). Jacob holds on to Esau's heel (Genesis 25:26), Ruth holds on to her cloak (Ruth 3:15), and men keep swords on their hips (Song of Solomon 3:8). God holds people to shake them to pieces (Job 16:12) or to guide them (Psalm 73:23, 139:10). Pain or fear seizes people (Exodus 15:14, 2 Samuel 1:9). The righteous holds on to his way (Job 17:9). One in every fifty is selected (Numbers 31:30), or taken by lot (1 Chronicles 24:6).
This verb's sole derivative is the feminine noun אחזה (ahuzza), meaning possession, or that what is held, seized (Genesis 36:43, Numbers 27:7, Psalm 2:8).
Shaphan son of Azaliah= to cover in gold, ie, hope, and improve one's condition
אצל
Unused verb אצל ('sl) probably meant to join. Noun אצל ('assil) means a joint or joining.
Preposition אצל ('esel) means beside and denominative verb אצל ('asal) means to approximate or disintegrate — i.e. to move toward a position just next of a solid state. Noun אציל ('asil) describes an item, condition or status that sits just next to another (greater, better, higher) item, condition or status.
Maaseiah the ruler of the city= "to seek refuge where God Hides."
Joah son of Joahaz, the recorder=
Repeat this. "Cleave to God and He will Cleave to you."
Judaism which is perfect, has admittedly not been practiced perfectly. The conditions of man's mind and his work have prevented us from even getting close to the ideals of the Religion. Even still, we have this Tanakh which states so long as our minds work, perhaps we can unhide all the chances we have left behind and still find happiness.

Y hablando de terciopelo aquí tenemos un “Velvet Cave” que no es subterráneo pero sí lo es porque forra una cueva, que viene a ser lo mismo. Insistencia, repetición, oración, letanía, que generan trance. Imaginativo, aventurado, inquietante, hipnótico, rallante, sorprendente.
Vi a Simeon Coxe con mi gran amigo Alex Papá Oso hace unos diez años y no nos defraudó en absoluto, aunque no viéramos en realidad a Silver Apples, sino a Silver Apple. Simeon, como es lógico, no sonaba como en los años 60, sino que remozaba sus viejos temas y “Velvet Cave” mutaba en esto.

#1266 Silver Apples - The Garden
#1266 Silver Apples – The Garden
Silver Apples are an entirely unique entity, there’s no one else that sounds quite like them and that’s a rare thing in the world of ‘popular’ music and should be cherished. Not that Silver Apples achieved much popular success in their late ‘60s heyday, when a series of misfortunes befell their second album Contact, following up their frankly incredible eponymous debut, and then sunk them without…
