here's a sneak peak at what we've been working on.. stay tuned, more to follow!!

A-Hole_preRelease

Remix of my first song, Funky1. This has a much better arrangement and a slightly better mix. Enjoy!

Funky1 Remix

Trancey/dancey tune created with Erica Synths DB-01 (bassline), Roland TR-8S (drums of course), and Korg Prologue (melody).

Hope you like it!

Boiling Over

This is an interesting one, hard to describe really. Minimal drums provided by the Roland TR-8S backing a somewhat gritty combo of a rhythm section provided by the Arturia Matrixbrute and an Erica Synths DB-01. Special guest Korg Prologue provides a melodic quasi-arpeggio sequence to balance things out.

This was all performed in real-time by me and recorded on a simple Zoom H4 in stereo. No editing or post production at all! The mix could be a little better, but that's life. I'll keep practicing and probably re-record this soon as a multi-track in Logic so I can improve the mix.

Just a happy little synth tune that I made. Erica DB-01 on the bassline, TR-8S on drums, Prologue on melody, and Zoom H4 doing the recording through an XR18 mixer.

A General Good Feeling

A chill jam with the Moog family: Matriarch, Mother 32, Subharmonicon, and DFAM.

The Matriarch is playing a random, 2 octave arpeggio with its oscillators in round robin mode and set to 16', 8', 4' and 2'. Its LFOs are controlling its stereo filters' cutoff and filter env amount and filter 1 has its resonance at 10 o'clock. Its stereo delay on high feedback turns the random notes into a nice bed of tones.

The DFAM has its pitch sequence controlling its cutoff and the Subharmonicon's sequencers are controlling its VCO decay and VCF decay.

The Subharmonicon is playing the little polyrhythmic stabs and it running through the Space Echo.

The Mother 32 is doing the slow bass tones which are being echoed by a pitched up Clouds.

Everything recorded live through a Soundcraft MTK12 into Ableton Live where some EQing, compression, etc. was added to clean up the sound.
