Aquatic Ambience

who cares if you die, who cares? i care if you live, i care.

A cover of the most iconic arcade system from the 90s, the Neo Geo.

Neo Geo Boot

Got my hands on the Artiuria MicroFreak a few weeks ago.  This is the first track I've put out so far.  A return to my breakbeat roots.

TR-8s House Jam

plinkyplonk

Alright, we've got a little jam going on! This time I'm trying out my weird dual camera set-up for VHS stuff in the studio. It works surprisingly well! Check the video out if you like fun VHS looks.

Time Travel

Alright, another day another jam. Dunno why, but I've been feeling in a good mood music-wise! This one is a bit slower, wanted something a little more ambient tonight. Had a really long day, kinda hurt my hand doing vinyl stapling for some restaurant benches. Also didn't get food till like 3 in the afternoon so have had a headache most of the day.

Anyways, this is a lot of synths! Pretty much all of the ones I've got hooked up save for the Matrix 6 and MKS50/TX81z. Neat!

Bistro

Alright, just something dumb and easy for testing out the Solina SE-IV. What a cool string synth, this thing sounds amazing! Though it weighs an absolute ton holy moly.

Drums are RD-8 through a BOSS RX-100 spring verb, bass is TD-3 through BOSS RCL-10 comp/limiter and Eletra EP-100 BBD, and finally strings are Solina through T-Rex Replicator. Recorded on my Tascam 246!

Eminent Namespace

Alright! So I got an Analog Rytm mk1, and it's basically the bee's knees. I spent like an hour or so getting to know it, then spent another hour making this little track. It's just 16 steps with conditional triggers, and some live mute/unmuting. I haven't learned the deeper stuff like songs and chains and all that, and I didn't want to mess around with more than just 16 steps so I made something fairly simple.

But this is all Rytm! I recorded it to my 246 with NR on at higher speed, then did some slight comp/drive/limit in DAW as I usually do, though not as heavy handed this time. I gotta learn to tame the comp in the Rytm however, those kicks get kinda buzzy.

Dust

Alright, so here's another Rytm jam! My thing did a weird at two points and cut the high out of the right channel for some reason, but whatever. Not a huge deal. Probably just hitting a bad spot on the tape or the mixer outs got bumped, probably that last one. Ech.

Anyways, this is all Rytm mk1 with 1.50a firmware. Just a few samples, mostly the analog engines.

Scannr

I feel super sick tonight, so I made some music to keep my mind off things. Hopefully it's just something I ate or eating way too long after lunch or something. Maybe it was a migraine.

Oh well, this is the K1m on pads sequenced by the Keystep, then ran through the T-Rex Replicator and Avalanche Run (just verb). Then it's Rytm providing clock to the Keystep and bass/drums. I really like making wobbly basses on the Rytm btw, the dual vco is so cool!

Recorded to tape on my Tascam 246 at high speed with dbx NR on.

I'm back bitches!

I post a lot of music here, sometimes slightly under-done stuff. Check back every now and then if you like a track, cause there's a good chance that a day after I put it up I will have already replaced the original file lol.
