Inspired by Mutt Lange's work with Bryan Adams and Def Leppard, Andrew and Phil wrote and recorded the song in Nashville on GarageBand about the night (tonight).  We hope you enjoy it!

In The Night (Tonight)

A recording made a Berklee back in 2004ish.

Guy Longo's Toyota/Lexus

All sounds on this song are from the Mutable Instruments Braids module.
Everything was performed on a MicroBrute which was controlling the modules.  No sequencing.

Reverb is from Pittsburgh Verbtronic.
Low Pass Filter is Manhattan Analog SVVCF.

Braids Demo (5/29/16)

This is a single take little improv I just did.  Had a sequence set on the Moog Mother-32 (which was actually the sample sequence in the manual) and ran it through the following modules.  Then manually played around with the Attack, Decay and Sustain on the Moog Mother-32 to open and close the filter and allows notes to come pouring in.

Moog Mother-32 VCA > Intellijel uFold > Manhattan SVVCF Filter (cutoff controlled by both Moog Mother-32 and Mutable Peaks > Pittsburgh Verbtronic

I think it was the uFold that made the sequence sound insanely fat.

Mutable Peaks was also making the kick drum and snare noises.  Those two signals along with the sequencer from the Moog were all mixed into the Manhattan Filter.  Some additional reverb added in post.

I then took the sound file in GarageBand, tripled it, moved and panned the two extra files to make a stereo delay sound.

Eurorack Improv - 6/16/16

I still had my MicroBrute set up for a quick cover of the "Stranger Things" theme song and ran a one note sequence while periodically adding a BOSS DE-200 rack digital delay for a quick delay and BOSS RV-10 rack reverb for the stereo tap delay.

Kick drum is an 808 sample from Mutable Instruments Peaks sampled through an MPC 2000.

Stereo chords from Mutable Instruments Braids "Saw x 3" through Manhattan Analog SVVCF filter and Pittsburgh Verbtronic.

Stereo guitar tracks are a Telecaster into Danelectro Spring King reverb pedal into Silvertone 1482 recorded from across the room (the XLR wasn't long enough, hah).

Synth leads from MicroBrute in left channel.  I then took that line and chopped it up and placed it in the right channel to get some glitchy effects.

Synth basses from Arturia Mini and TAL-YU-NO-LX (Juno-106) plug-ins.

3's 8.11.16 (Version 2)

Here is a version of the tune I recorded yesterday with an added layer of Timothy Leary cautioning listeners before his reading of "Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out" based on age.
