A patch centring around a Cwejman PH-8 modulating four VCO-6's.

Chords: 
MIDI keyboard -> MI Yarns -> four Cwejman VCO-6’s / Pulse output -> VCA-4MX -> two DMF-2 -> MX-4S. 
- a Cwejman PH-8 modulates the PWM inputs of the VCO-6s via the triangle outputs. The Pulse outputs of the PH-8 modulate the VCA-4MX creating the distorted FM type pulses.
- the pulse outputs of the PH-8 are also modulation the two DMF-2s via CM1.
- the offset CV of the PH-8 is modulated by the S&H output of a Cwejman NS-4
- a Cwejman PH-4 modulates the panning of the 4 voices on the MX-4S.

Rhythm:
The Master-clock is a Cwejman D-LFO. One side is triggering a 4ms QCD, the other side modulates the PWM input of the PH-8.
- a Modcan QuadLFO is synced by the QCD. The module is in Quad mode and the 4 outputs are modulating the RES inputs of the two DMF-2s. This creates the Arpeggio that sometimes fades into the chords. 

The QCD outputs lead to the modules that create the drum sounds:
- bass-drum: Cwejman BLD -> DP-2 -> MX4S
- hihat/shaker:  Cwejman NS-4 (white noise) -> VC-FC -> FSH-1 -> MX-4S (opened by ADSR-VC2 via QCD)
- snare/rim:  Cwejman RG-6 (pos SAW) -> MX-4S. |  QCD -> MI Branches -> ADSR-VC2 -> MX-4S.  Slope on RG-6 modulated by NS-4. 

The DMF-2s are in low-pass mode for excerpt 2 and 4, and in bandpass mode for excerpts 1 and 3.

I wiggle the frequency of the PH-8, and the divisions on the QCD. I mute/unmute the percussive elements. I also wiggle the frequency of the two DMF-2s opening and closing the filters. And I wiggle the output level of the QuadLFO to add an arpeggio now and then.

Everything is recorded in one take and played live. No overdubbing. This was a 2 hours wiggle trip that I’ve cut to 4 short excerpts. 
Recorded into Protools via a Neve 5059 and Prism AD. Bit of reverb (Adaptiverb) and limiting (Ozone 7) added.

Tales From The West Side (Marcel Fengler Remix)

Altstadt Echo moved to Berlin from Detroit only 2 months ago, but we got him fast! His music cannot be put in any box. It is a melancholic mixture of Detroit's rough concrete landscape and dark Scandinavian romanticism. He is wise enough not to talk a lot. He gets things done instead. We let his music speak for himself.

----

Altstadt Echo has accomplished what most up-and-coming artists only talk about: a handful of vinyl releases, multiple festival performances, and the curation of an event series that has become a fixture of local underground culture.

He's been remixed by electronic music leaders across the world - from Terrence Dixon and Erika in Detroit to Abdulla Rashim and Varg in Europe. He's been called "Detroit techno's new guard" by Resident Advisor, "the avant-garde element to Detroit Techno" by SPIN Magazine, and "one of Detroit's fastest rising electronic music names" by the Detroit Free Press. His tracks have been featured on Regis mixtapes, written-up by Resident Advisor, and sold out at Hardwax.

We are happy to share with you all, the video teaser of the second chapter of our series "From The Peace To The Hysteria" in which we invited artists to perform environmental music or drone works, inspired by the peace of our beautiful nature. At the other extreme are remixers who perform techno reinterpretations of the original tracks, focusing on the dance floor and that thin line, that divides it between peace and hysteria.
On this occasion we have the immense pleasure of presenting Inertia a great and talented Producer, originally from Colombia, but based in Barcelona, presenting his musical vision on this series. Likewise, we welcome the artists in charge of reinterpreting the works on this release: Deepbass, Massa and Fixeer, who have prepared works at the highest quality.
