Slowest Downtempo analoguesque synth-phony I ever played ... yet, at 76bpm. One night session in Live11 with Push2. Arturia's synths MiniMoog, ARP 2600, Modular, Buchla Easel, CMI, Jup-8, Matrix, OB-Xa, ProphetV, SEM, Synthi, Mellotron, and Polybrute. Mastered with UAD Oxide Tape, IK One, FabFilters. For the future "Analogue" album. TNX!

The cover art is a clever graffiti art on a concrete wall I spotted in a local park.

Analogue

Black and White

The main synthline across the track is played interactively on Buchla Easel Command 208c. One thing about it - it is not a synth in normal/usual way expected from a machine making sound by moving electrons. It is rather an instrument trully. Here is my first track with this beaut synth, exploring Buchla-sweet analogue twangs and tones. Just like Auroras, you expect the colors, but they are always different somehow. 

All 5 mins played in one shot interactively, moving Buchla sliders placed in main panel in one row. Brilliant design to be able to see what's going on with wires and sliders position. Being able to move many sliders as you go just does not let you setup a preset and play it thru. You want to change things always, naturally. It is a synth technically, but feels more like playing a jaw harp or guitar. When you twang a string while playing. Here you have 22 sliders handy aligned for that. 

Lower and higher notes are the sound of two oscillators playing the same incoming midi pattern. While envelope, wave-folding timbers, opening gate and voltage controlled amp are tweaked interactively. Also sequencer(strangely 3-5 steps max, not 4 or 8), is not only for arping notes,instead for voltage control other oscillators and combo filter/amp. 

I still do love Moog and East-coast "traditional" subtractive concept, but now dig the West-coast concept as much. Its a privilege to own and play this 1974 designed, slightly improved with usb-midi for modern times analogue gear. I fell in love with Buchla tones/concept when played newly released Arturia VST few years back. (check one synthline track: https://soundcloud.com/samprock/patrol?in=samprock/sets/4-million-thank-you).  Same idea in this track - explore one synths sound. Real synth sound, plus few sounds made by VST in the middle section. Tried to limit other instruments: two Arturia MoogMini basslines, Pigments FX-ing, OB-xa pads, Kick2. 

Buchla (monosynth) line is split to left/right with one phrase apart for more stereo movement. Jun-6 Chorus, Live 11 Echo, FafFilter Pro-C2, Timeless 3, Pro-R in different amount/locations across the song. Mastered with UAD OxideTape, IK One, and FabFilters Pro-MB compressor and Pro-L2 final limiter.

The cover art is auroras-bleeding Buchla Easel Command 208c.

Originaltitle: Việt Nam - Ta Cùng Đi

Vietnam is an elongated coastal state in Southeast Asia. It borders China, Laos, Cambodia, the Gulf of Thailand and the South China Sea. The capital of Vietnam is Hanoi, the largest city by population is Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon); other important metropolises in the country are Hải Phòng, Cần Thơ and Đà Nẵng. The majority of the population are Vietnamese.

The first historically documented kingdom in what is now Vietnam emerged in the 1st millennium BC. Afterwards, peaceful coexistence developed between the Yue and the Han during the Triệu dynasty. 111 B.C. The dynasty came under the control of the Han Chinese as a province of the Han dynasty in 200 BC and remained so - interrupted by brief periods of independence - until 939 AD, when it was defeated after the Battle of the Bạch-Đằng River (Autumn 938 AD) gained independence. In the following centuries, Vietnam expanded southward with successive dynasties and a period of Chinese occupation from 1407 to 1428.

In the 19th century, the area gradually came under French colonial rule as part of French Indochina. Japan occupied the region during World War II. From 1946 to 1954, France tried unsuccessfully to restore its colonial rule in the First Indochina War. As a result of the French defeat in 1954, Tonkin and the northern part of Annam became the socialist North Vietnam with the capital Hanoi, and Cochinchina and the southern part of Annam became the Western-supported South Vietnam with the capital Saigon. From 1964 to 1973, the United States failed in the Vietnam War to defeat North Vietnam and its allied National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam. Instead, the two Vietnamese states were reunited under communist leadership in 1976.

Vietnam remains a one-party dictatorship to this day. The authoritarian government regularly commits serious violations of human rights.

Jamn' my Fender Strat the other day, found some nice chords progression. Built something around it same day, using LogicX on Mac. Unrefined and unpolished playing, guys. Layered bass, rhythm and played impromptu solo over. I dug up the rack from a hard-drive, so this couple years recording comes as-is, no refinments. Contains pure inspiration with the mistakes provided :)   Juss having some fun...  :D

Thank you for all for the AMAZING feedback here - Sam PROCK. 

Check out the version, in which Roger played his blessing guitar over this track, the next day  :)))) Appreciate my friend!

Up To You (Instrumental)

One of the Prock Rock electronic and guitar creatures for Flower Power album, made with Prockgressive improvs, usually featuring guitar improv or one take noodle. This track apparently has no guitar, though exactly capture one session inspiration, played with instrument called iPad :) All made  in my favorite Korg Gadget app. Indeed this creative app (DAW) has lively and solid sounding tools for session drums and twangy bass-guitars. 

Cover art is a GoPro shot in warm Maui waters at very empty Sugar Beach, natural preserve. 

The rule of the Flower Power release is to keep an atmosphere of original creation when Muse kissed you, so will not be adding any "real" guitar to it :) If you like to play over it PM me! I've posted this track with all stem available (free) for Open Collab, still open. Several amazing tracks came in catching same drift of improve and pleasure of music creation. Will be honored if you chime in too. Here is the stems and brilliant collabs. TNX!

Drone (Moog Mode)

One groovy night session spent with Maschine MK3. It's real fine device keeping your inspiration flowing. SoundCloud detected the genre as Tech House. I never try to play and make anything to fit into any particular style. Loving Tech House though and excited it just came up casually.

Sam Prock - Synthphony (Intermission Thunder)

One of my first track played with Korg Gadget app, which became daily prayer. Literally daily. Bast waste of $38 for any music soft, that turned iPhone and iPad into musical instruments. When played Flip it sounded like a magic to me, so I though it would be cool to play like that often, so I practice :)  

Cover art is made with iPhone app called Photofox by adding "movie" effects and other.
