GiGi FM is a trained dancer, which gives her a deeper insight into the intrinsic relationship between music and bodily movement. You can read a lot more about her philosophy and approach in the interview below, but you don't even need to know about it to hear this in her RA Podcast—a collection of swirling deep techno that rivals anything made by the usual cohort of "hypnotic" techno heads.

Looking at the tracklist doesn't really do it justice, but the names involved give you an idea of what to expect: Varuna, ASC, Donato Dozzy, The Orb, Sunju Hargun. This is techno that ripples rather than bludgeons, that moves with an ethereal grace, where tracks bleed into one another beautifully, with a few surprises, too. While you're here, you should check out her Magnetite EP for Bambounou's label Bambe, already one of the young year's most bewitching techno records. But if this is your introduction, then turn off the lights, light a candle or some palo santo, and sink into two hours of your new favorite techno DJ.

Test Pressing w/ ALM Busy Circuits 090422

Patch Notes:

A Castle jam with subtle modulation to the both the operator wave shape and levels to add movement and rhythmic emphasis. 

With the Castle’s 4 operators in series, a random voltage from Pam is patched to the wave CV input of operator 3, rhythmically altering the timbre of the swelling FM over operator 4.

A pitch sequence is patched to Osc B, layering with the droning Osc A to create dual voice harmonies.

The x1 and x2 outs of the Pexp-1 are patched to the level CV inputs of operators 2 and 1 respectively, altering the sound of the wave shape modulation down stream as operator 3 is FM’d.

Beat provided by Squid Salmple filtered by the MUM M8.

Patch Notes:

Building a busy beat with TAZM-O using the Pam PRO + AXON-2 to sequence and perform complex modulation changes and the MEGA-TANG to layer and control the levels of multiple shape outputs.

Different shape outputs from the TAZM-O are patched to the 4 channels of the MEGA-TANG with each VCA modulated by a different envelope shape/pattern from Pam PRO. The remaining outputs of Pam are patched to the TAZM-O, providing zappy envelopes to pitch and octave CV + rhythmic modulation to the FM Index (self patched TZFM) and Shape CV. The new AXON-2 is used to perform quick macro changes to the modulation with the 4 offset knobs altering rhythms, wave width, CV level and wave shapes for several outputs at once.

TAZM-O Beat

experimenting with the chords on the Akemie's Castle FM module. this is a 4 operator chord patch with about 6 modulations going on as well as 4 loops on the make noise morphagene being switched around as a background layer.

a little rossum morpheus filter thrown in for resonance...

a lot of nice, bell-like tones from Akemie's.. it is, after all, an actual Yamaha FM synthesizer chip in a module...
