4 Million Plays - Thank You!

That fragile moment of freedom in between the notes when you receive a next one from the Universe! 

Long time did not capture my Cordoba KOA Edition nylon-string guitar. That day found guitar with a broken string, but it did not stop the inspiration :) The track started from a tweaked NI Picked Nylon sound and Korg Gadget project on iPhoneX. Then dropped stems into Ableton to see what happens during Cordoba improv session. Recorded guitar sound in parallel into direct interface and a also room mic to capture the atmos and happy-little-accidents. Mastered with UA Oxide Tape, IK, and FabFilters in Live 11. New track will go to Uplifting Chillout album titled "Love", some day, maybe. TNX!

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.

MIDNIGHT CLOUDS

dyttiloop?

Hiraeth discovered her power one day while staring up at the sky, lost in thought. As she concentrated, she noticed a small, white cloud slowly drifting across the blue expanse. She found that she was able to move the cloud slowly across the sky, just by her thinking about it. Excited by her discovery, she tried again and again, each time with more focus, until the clouds were dancing to the rhythm of her mind.

My first ever recorded guitar instrumental, guys... well, some years ago :) Come as it was played originally, with some subtle 2016 remastering. One day I played this light piano back loop and then improvised the tune with my Cordoba Nylon String guitar. Added few lines of bass, flute, strings, and percs in the Logic Pro. All played on M-Audio Axiom Pro keyboard connected to Mac. Cordoba guitar (on the cover art) recorded through MBox2 interface, I think, or maybe embedded Macbook mic. Track comes from the older hard drive, with as-is guitar impromptu recording, meaning a vintage feeling. Meaning extra charm, right? 

I posted the track celebration celebrating 5,000 SC plays. Way beyond 3 Million by now somehow, woah! Thank you!

In My Mind (Original Cordoba Mix)

🌺 ⚡  "... Imagine waking up in a tent (you are at Coachella, Woodstock, Burning Man ...) Early morning. Festive & groovy day is ahead of you. Nature is waking-up, sun is rising. Late-night DJ is still playing bad ass bass groove .... Someone is taking a flute from hippie bag, with a Peace sign drawn with ball pens .... Someone is reaching for the guitar, trying to grind teeth of the Black Fender Strat for breakfast ... All become alive ... Full day is ahead of you. Full life is ahead of you... " ✌

☮ ~ Flower Power ~ We All Need Some <3 ~ The Hippies Were Right ~ ☮

To teleport to 60's even faster, when Robert Moog was inventing Model D, I played MiniMoog, Moog Modular (and other synths by Arturia and Korg). Played my blue Fender Strat to signify the times, when Jimi Hendrix was grinding his teeth over his black one. Pushing flowers to the guns with Electronic and Psychedelic Rock is still needed. Imagined all thru my prism of future Deep Disco and Indie Dance vibe. Drums and all prod done in Ableton Live, mastering with IK Multimedia tools. 

Cover art is my casual drawing in ArtRage with Apple Pen on iPad.

New Edition

Tipsy meditative, groove reflective, masculine chillout. Chill hard! 

My own favorite track for the new Flower Power - Prock Prock album, 11/29/2019. 

https://soundcloud.com/samprock/sets/flower-power

Usually i post fresh improv, faster made tune. This one is different. Two years of mixing, mastering, getting dozens of basslines bumping to each other in a slo-mo Pogo dance. Had a blast producing it in Ableton with Arturia synths and IK Multimedia tools. 

Having said that, thats a rule, Fender Strat tipsy guitar noodle improv comes almost as-is, as it happened one good day. You can spend endless time mixing, polishing, growing your skills, but if something just happened - let it be. Power of music is in the improvisation and art of impression. Hope you share that thoughts and enjoy the do. TNX!

Tuned my Cordoba nylon string guitar and all the synthesizers to naturally play in the Love Frequency. 528Hz - frequency plants vibrate during photosynthesis. So the cover art photo. Ancient Solfeggio tones to heal minds, fuel the soul. It worked for John Lennon in "Imagine", so have to join the movement. Tune will help to grow your cucumber too! :)

The vibe we all need so much now. Huge respect to all essential heroes of pandemic keep saving humanity. One life at a time. To all Indie musicians for positivity and spreading love. One song at a time. Chance we all waited for - save the planet from your bedroom studio <3

Cover art is shot thru the grape leaves in our backyard. Learning "Chasing Light" photography technique. Canon EOS REBEL T4i, f/5.6, 1/2500 sec., ISO-6400, 67 mm. Lens Canon EF-S 18-135mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS USM.

The track will open 5th album, coming up next two decades :) No rush, I am on "no-plan" plan. Collecting Prock 2.0 style tracks - Uplifting Chillout. This Love goes out as a single to contribute to the vibe of good! Hope you enjoy. TNX!
