WONDERFUL track Sam.  I got Ableton but still have not installed it yet. I must do it one day 😁. A GREAT Art Of Noise tribute too. I am a HUGE fan of them and have covered a couple of there tracks and been inspired by their music. Anne Dudley and Trevor Horn are inspirational as were the rest of the group. AWESOME

Crazy track Sam, love this! Awesome synth work and beats! :)

Thank you!

Thank you for 2 Million plays!

The summer is still in its Solstice. Have a warm day!

Fantasy is played on Maschine Mikro MK3 with pads and knobs. Only stock drum/bass, synth and the new polysynth. When Maschine software chocked on tracks and FX, rendered tracks into Ableton for tweaking, mixing and to play more embellishments with Polysynth as VST. Mastered with UAD, IK, and FabFilters. Fantasy will go to Uplifting Chillout album titled Love, some day, maybe. TNX!

Collab is the best value of SoundCloud! Cheers

The track is in 3/4, at 134bpm. All simplified and consists even 12 bar parts, with drums and bass/pads bits somewhat evolving. You can mix and match anything into a sequence you like, or follow this structure to play/sing along. If you like, send me your new stems, I can add to the stem pack, so others can use it too. Thank YOU!
Started this track out of the blue the other day, planning on playing some Blues, but it turned into this. Then I came across this waves photo I like... So the backtrack name is combination of all those things :)

Prockjets (Singles Collection)

La Mer (Roma Edit)

In this track I was having a blast Analog Kick produced by Moog Subsequent 37 CV. I think there are fans of that kissing, deep tone you can find on numerous records from 80's and 90's, also established itself in PsyTrance and other Future genres nowadays. 

Un-mastered and under-produced, but I like to share it with exaggerated kick like I played. Will likely beef-up the music part and put in place deeper, trance-ier place in Prockgressive release soon. If you like to have an Analog Kick sample send me a PM, an/or Midi file, so I can run it by Moog (free). I can tune it to the project, as tunning Kick to the song key gives essential effect, that you cannot get by dropping a dull kick sample from any random library. 

Tune it, shape it, stretch, revert it. Push it, drop it, smash, compress it :) Was it the lyrics about Kick in one good Daft Punk song? hehe

The rest is done in Ableton same session. New Live 10 Wavetable synth and  Arturia SEM. Also felt like picking some Fender Strat strings, so it is not jealous all attention goes to Moog lately  :)

Telekinesis (Kicking Moog)

If you feel drowned and need some undrowning, remember someone live a happy life on the edge. Just make the waters and colors around you pretty! 

Another Ableton Live improv from my wierdos collection. Also with Moog kick and new in 2018 Wavetable synth in Live version 10. I rarely (never?) play vox samples in my mixes. These ones come from Korg Gadget. Why? I am big fun of one of the best experimental, electronic and chillout band of all times - Art Of Noise. We heard a million TV commercials and bacltrack, without knowing the band name in 80's. This is my Art Of Noise mood :)

Undrowning (Pineapple Chilllout)

“There is no island for your soul, there is only journey to it …“

Beat and synth played with Native Instruments iMashine2 4-track iPad app by taping on iPad surface. Plus my Yamaha bass and Fender Stratocaster for lead and licks. Recorded directly with Maschine MK3. The guitar effect if reversing guitar samples directly in Ableton, though I like jamn with reverse delay (like one can be found in Korg Gadget on iPad). The rest of prod and mastering is done in Ableton Live 10. Thanks for your support!   

The cover art is the portrait of a Big Green turtle who was chilling on a Island of Maui (Canon Rebel T4i, f/8, 1/400sec, ISO-100, 124mm. Lens Canon EF-S 18-135mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS USM).

Oh, yes... You probably noticed I am having much fun sharing improvisation, raw and work-in-progress jams on my @prockjet account lately. More will come. The base for this track was one of the Prockjets. That's the version of the track when it was just conceived on iPad iMaschine app:

Prock marathon continue - fresh one session recording. This time done on Native Instruments :) 

All played by hands on luxurious silky Maschine MK3 pads. Used Komplete kits and sounds, plus NI Monark and Arturia Prophet V3. Arturia synths integrated as NKS tools and available as native instruments in the Maschine flow. It's phunn! :) 

Inspired by nostalgic memories of good reading Haggard’s books in childhood. REALLY loved the adventure stories and hint of mystery. “She” is one fav of them … 

So here is the sound track for reading :) BTW, the book is available free at Project Gutenberg, where I usually grab a book in “epub” format and drop to iPnone/iPad (or Kindle version, or read online): gutenberg.org/ebooks/3155

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.

Enterprise

In childhood I loved reading Sir Henry Rider Haggard’s books. Adventurous stories with a hint of mystery. “She” is one fav of them, so here is the reading soundtrack (free copy at Project Gutenberg gutenberg.org/ebooks/3155, track cover art is a jammed cover of the book).

Played in one session with NI Maschine hard&software. Mastered in Ableton Live 10 with IK Multimedia tools. This album version is ready for upcoming "Impressions" release opening with soundcloud.com/samprock/crystal-ripples TNX!
