Patch featuring two Cwejman VCO-6’s and a BLD. VCO A’s PWM SAW output is routed into a MMF-1s. The MMF-1s is in 12db lowpass mode, saturation knob on 4, compression ration 3:1. The pulse output of VCO B is routed to the sync input of VCO A. One output of a D-LFO is the functioning as master clock, the other output (synced) is modulating the PWM Saw of VCO A.

The Saw output of VCO B is routed to a MX-4S, two pulse outputs of the Turing Machine control the level, this creates the short accented notes. The Sine output of VCO B is also routed to the MMF-1s (audio input 2). This creates the lower octave sine-type bass.

A Turning Machine is locked into a 16 or 32 note pattern, the pitch CV goes via a uScale to both VCO’s. The D-LFO is routed through a MI Branches and providing clock for an ADSR-VC2. The outputs of the ADSR are creating random accents on the MMF-1s via the VC1 and VCA/mix inputs.

I wiggle the input levels of the two VCO’s on the MMF-1s. This varies the sine-type bass of VCO B and PWM Saw of VCO A. I also wiggle the Saw pulse width on VCO A. This moves the sound from almost brassy to chorus like.
At some points I drop in a low repeating bass note from a BLD. The BLD is triggered by one of the clock outputs of the Turning Machine.
Tracked in one take directly to ProTools, cut to make it less boring, and bit of reverb (Adaptiverb) and limiting (Ozone) added.

JT022 / Various Artists - Broken Promises Part 5

JT022 / Various Artists - Broken Promises Part 5

Milan based collective Just This return with their biggest compilation yet, a twelve track package featuring varied entries from label regulars and esoteric talents alike. JT022 is due for release July 20th.

Melodic fragments and melancholic harmonies spiral through ricocheting drums and marching kicks. Contributions from Skudge, Hiver, Hunter/Game, Artefakt, Pizetsky and many more combine to forge a formidable package channelling moody, hypnotic techno for darkened dancefloors.

Artefakt  - Sidereal Time

Out July 2018 on Be As One. 12" vinyl and digital.

The Abyss And Beyond

For its seventh release, Obscura - the thriving label of Italian trio Agents Of Time - returns to the compilation format to welcome exciting new talents and core label acts. 

‘East Coast’, the Agents Of Time track which opens the release, is at once tough and atmospheric, with delicate pads suspended above the rugged, syncopated rhythm. London Modular Alliance complete the A-side with an organic jam of bleeps, bass and crisp percussion. Next, Australian Jensen Interceptor contributes a fresh cut of rapid-fire electro which leads neatly into the sci-fi tones of ‘Welcome To My World’ by newcomer Golden Virgo. 

Following a full EP on Obscura earlier this year, Hiver is back with the elastic bassline and dreamy arpeggios of ‘Stasys’. Orbe, a remixer on Hiver’s EP, impresses with ‘Never Comes’, a similarly restrained and endlessly detailed journey through the depths. 

The final side is split between Laguna and Kris Wadsworth. The former tunnels further into the hypnotic side of Obscura’s sound whilst Wadsworth’s crunchy, Detroit techno ends the release on a high. With ‘From Sound To Silence 2’, Agents Of Time have compiled eight, stand-out tracks to explore the full range of their dancefloor sensibilities.

Recording info. :
"Recorded early 2018, I feel strongly attached to these five jammed cuts. For some reasons, playing at both Brooklyn Mirage New York and Panorama Bar/Berghain Berlin was a direct consequence of these recordings. Emotions-wise, I owe these tracks a lot : Sarbacane d'Antan EP is about waving a happy goodbye to a bygone past period of my life." - Amandra

PREMIERE: Dorian Gray - Magic Spell

Its been a while since we released music from Smeti, our Prague based lover of analog synths and drum machines.  but don't worry he hasn't gone anywhere. He has a wicked new ep dropping soon that is full of wonderful sound design and tough grooves. My Promise is a teaser of what is to come, bright harmonies and pads in perfect balance with raw synths and acid lines.
