dig these strings big time and this mean ass bass

are the strings the alpha juno? I have a mk2 myself

Crap...that wrong note really bothers me. I guess that's what I get for recording "live to tape". One of these days I'll go back and edit it....maybe.

The best-of-the-best from the ROBOT Lab. Enjoy!

ROBOT Labs Electro Collection

This song is part of the Ferry Sessions; short tracks composed in the front seat of my car, or the passenger lounge on the Skeena Queen during my weekly ferry ride into town.  The trip is 35 minutes each way, so, the bulk of the tracks' main themes, phrases, loops, and arrangements are laid down in about an hour, with a wee bit of tinkering when I get back home. 

Contrary to my regular M.O. there are no vintage synths here, just an old MacBook with Garageband, a Microkorg, and a no-name MIDI controller.

Listen. Share. Enjoy!

A Cobalt sky…
A Cobalt drive
And Cobalt waves beyond the horizon.
Cobalt Dreams,
Cobalt gleams.
These are all beautiful things, yeah.

Can you just Imagine
A World filled plenty, woah,
Of all the Goodness for you and me, ah…

This one was a joy to make. Lots of analog goodies for your earbuds.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Happy holidays and happy new year!

Many thanks to the bot that came up with the art.

Just messing things up a bit while I drink my morning coffee. 

This is a "live" jam recorded in one take using a Volca Bass passed through an EH Bass Micro Synthesizer and a $10 analogue delay pedal as the lead. Baseline courtesy of the Juno-6 sync'd to a TR-707. I threw in a couple random samples to spice things up a bit. MIDI be damned! 

Listen LOUD to amuse your neighbours...
(and scare their cats)

Enjoy!

Techno tune produced entirely on the Nintendo DSi using the KORG DS-10+ synthesizer/drum machine.

The 1-bar components were composed while sitting on ferry boats. The final track was assembled while sitting on the pot.

Got a NEW toy!!. Using an Arturia Beatstep Pro to drive a vintage Roland aJUNO-1 and an old Roland JV-35. I'm working out some riffs and instrument combinations for an upcoming live show. This is really just a sketch and has not be mixed, mastered, or even EQ'd. Nonetheless, I hope you hear something you like.
Cheers!

A good segment of time crafting this one, yo
Unique synths and unique drum n bass for you, with love...

Happy early Christmas~

When I was Mastering this, somehow the VST plugin I was using to create the Bass got boosted and stuck all the way on maximum power and was unchangeable for some reason. So, I just kept it that way~
