Great full sound & nice uplifting melody :)

great electronic riffs and chord changes here...nicely done

Ooh this is sounding nice, and cool to read it's made entirely in Gadget! I have been leaning hard on the Korg rendition of ARP Odyssey whenever I'm in Gadget, might be my favorite instrument on there... though I've had Mono/Poly for longer and used that almost just as much.

awesome sound Sam!! love the creativity you have

WHEN A BATH IS NOT ENOUGH

Since I heard Hang Massive work for the first time, I got obsessed with the need to hear Hang Drum sound. Now I enjoy playing it too, software of course. In particular Soniccouture as Native Instruments or Ableton Live device. 

Made this track last year, riding my bike along the picturesque hills surrounding Silicon Valley. The grass, burned to Gold for the most time of the year, looks (and smells) great. Giving California its Golden State name.

Ableton Live 11, Arturia MiniMoog, Soniccouture Pan Drum, Omnisphere, UAD Oxide Tape, IK One, FabFilters.

Analogue

Golden

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.

Who's Coming

Being originally a very short & simple song I wrote about a traumatic event (translated lyrics below), I have been working separately on verses and refrain, then trying new ways to combine and glue them.

So, aware of changing moods along, most with tambourine in hands ;)

Letra / Lyrics:

MI ALBORNOZ HA DESAPARECIDO  /  MY BATHROBE HAS DISAPPEARED

¿Quién sabe a dónde ha ido?  /  Who knows where it has gone?
¿Quién estará conmigo  /  Who will be with me
las noches en que tenga frío?  /  the nights when I feel cold?

Mi albornoz ha desaparecido.  /  My bathrobe has disappeared.

Después de lo que hemos vivido,  /  After all that we lived,
¿quién sabe porqué se ha ido?  /  who knows why it has gone away?
Dios sabe cuánto le he querido…  /  God knows how much I have loved it …

Mi albornoz ha desaparecido.  /  My bathrobe has disappeared.

Mi Albornoz (Ha desaparecido)

Why do I have ProckJet acct? To share improvs and daily fun with music, just like this ☮   

I had a blast twisting knobs at my Moog Subsequent 37 CV (on Prockjet cover)for an hour or so, having bassline and lead on top. Other day mixed it with new Wavetable and other synths in Ableton Live 10. Explored Replika reverb by Native Instruments. Just 3 basslines, 3 pluck, and 3 lead synth. Kick from BassISM2. Simple :) 

Hope you find it fun ... or fall a sleep and have a great chill, which will be "mission-accomplished" for Prockjet. Exploring sound and inducing vibe is mesmerizing process. Bob Moog said this in the documentary you can find on YT. I extracted a quote on that:

"It is something between discovering and witnessing" - Robert Moog 

Cannot agree more! Have best inspiration with what you play guys!

..... P.S. Yes, Bolero is my favorite Classical piece. Tops! that I remembered somehow after playing this and listening few days later :) (not calling this any way close to Ravel, just messing up and having Nocturnal fun ... and it was played in the morning. You don't want to hear my late night mourning for sure :P

Nocturnal (Longest Night Nocturne Edit)

Special here ~ everything is played by fingers on the iPad surface. Native Instruments app, called iMaschine 2, is limited to 4 tracks with 4 patterns over the whole song. Same time it is truly inviting environment for the Beatmaking and doing More-With-Less.

I already played electric bass and Fender Strat, mixing it in. While wanted to post bare-naked iPad version as-is, before I overproduced it in Ableton Live or spooked the charm of "4-track" classic setup :)  

Best inspiration with what you're playing today guys! 

~ Musically yours ~ S.P.  ~ @samprock  ~ @silentzen ~

Prockjets

Island (Maschine Sanctuary Edit)

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!

Odyssey (Islander Mix)

Crazy experimental, you've been warned!  :)

What can be done if you have just one note to play around with? I imagine drones revving over your head (friendly drones).  Caveat, for synthesizers enthusiasts, The whole thing drones on note B, while I was tweaking this huge, luxurious Moog filter and other on my Subsequent 37 CV. I was just having fun exploring the analog vibe, my usual meditation routine, and pressed the record button.  Hope you find it Moogalicious :)

If you feel so, grab any of bits from the longer 12 minute Moog stem on the link. Original, unprocessed and raw, 118Bpm. Slice and dice it to samples, re-tune or else to add some analog drift and twangs to your production.

Soap and Water Day                      2020 Janine Levinson

Is it Friday or a Monday?               
Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Sunday?
Are there flowers on the hill?              
Is the sky above me still?
All these questions never answered 
The present and the past are mixing  
Future out my window like a fata morgana
No you can’t go out to play! 
‘Cause It’s a soap and water day

Is it really 2020?        
Should I sleep or should I wake?
Lonely in a land of plenty            
Looking for a hand to shake

All this longing never answered 
Present and the past are melting
Looking out my window at mountain of molehills

No I can’t go out to play! 
‘Cause It’s a soap and water day

Disinfect me              
Strip me of my mortal sin
All this trouble to make me whole and clean again

Is it Friday or a Monday? 
Missing you with all my soul
Plant a flower for me someday
And let me know you’re okay

No I can’t go out to play! 
‘Cause It’s a soap and water day

Soap And Water Day

Listen to St. Clement while watching Lance Mountain skateboard in the 1984 skateboarding film, The Bones Brigade Video Show here: https://www.facebook.com/couchkingpresents/videos/715433375670753/

I had been really wanting to make new music with Calebass. I have been making a lot of songs that lean more heavily toward hip hop the last couple years and felt like heading back toward the direction of my earlier years on SoundCloud. Luckily Calebass was willing and ready and the music flowed easily and steadily. Jon did an amazing job adding an element of jazz with his bass and Janine really awakened the psychedelic spirit and Age of Aquarius with her vocals. It was extra bonus to have both Sinfields participate in this song making this a real SC family affair. Lyrically, I was inspired by the children’s book, Ox-Cart Man, which I love, and all the felt mouse toys I recently made for my cat at my daughter’s request. 

Thanks for all your years of listening everyone!

This is dedicated to the joys of making things at home.

Lyrics:

Felt
Of natural fibers  
Pelt 
Nature’s the provider  

Sheep and goats and muskoxen
Wool and cashmere qiviut 
Nothing that’s a toxin only
Simply as god giveth
Dyes of plants and insects 
Cochineal that’s rich and intense
I light up the incense 
As you gather up our projects
Single felting needle
Scissors from the cupboard
We are crafting peoples
Churning our own butters

Lalalalalalala
Lalalala
Lalalalalalala
Lalalala

Saint Clement fleeing from his city
Felted wool upon his blistered piggies

Accidentally felted 
From moisture and friction 
It took the shape of
Socks 
Accidentally felted 
From the moisture and friction 
It took the shape of
Socks

I dry skins in my oven 
Till the thin fur turns 
Orange summon 
Urnamman as smoke drifts to heaven
Waking up the legends battling 
Over bragging rights to the origins 
The color of carrot  
Felt hoods dyed and blocked 
To make hats 
I inhale the vapors  
And see the stories come to life 
As a small white cat adhered to a board 
Acts out the dreams of a young child bored 
In a mad scene 
Of scientists looking for a vaccine 
To score points for the lord of carotene 
Off with his head
