SYNTHphony ~ Please Check YouTube Too

I have decided to revamp and re-sort my tracks on SoundCloud with new tunes that landed on Flower Power. Prock Rock album released by Silent Zen, which is my official record label now ☮ how cool is that, woo-hoo!

I cannot over-emphasize the value of improvisation and catching the moment. Happy that on one good Sunday  did not forget to press a record button while getting intimate with my blue Fender Strat. And happier that posted for you guys to make my day (so many good days!) with all your support and encouraging comments: 

https://soundcloud.com/art-of-nonsense/sam-prock-up-to-you-original-mix

The Art Of Nonsense account @art-of-nonsense will mostly collect remixes. On the newer Prockjet account @prockjet I will ship momentary improvs, mobile grooves, new prockjets for you to enjoy the raw, and hopefully provide valuable feedback and encouragement :)

Flower Power

iTunes or Anywhere

Up To You

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!

Out Of The Blues

“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:

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 (Engines Warmup)

That moment. When you about to meet something new in your life. Worries, doubts are mixed with thrill and excitement. Butterflies tickling your guts, inner-voice is a non-stop chatterbox…

This is my 4th year ADAM Audio Soundtrack submission. I am loving to play to for the challenge very much. You got only 30 seconds to fully express what you see on a photo. This year photo is by Tobias Zielony “The Opening”, 2005, which “Premonition” soundtrack hopefully completes and conveys the story this reflective photography work got the mind into.

First, I got the chords progression and invisible grooves to heartbeat at my favorite 102npm. Next, played lots on two dozens of synthesizers (fun!). Although it lets to assume it is all ARPing and sequencing (which is all good to use of course) I played bass and synth lines by hand on iPad surface or Moog keys and/or edited jewels note-by-note, locating them in stereo, octave, EQ space. 

Starting from Cubasis DAW on iPad, prockjet traveled to Ableton Live for more sound and mixing. The following iPad synths were involved (by not harmed :): Moog 15, ModelD by Moog, iSEM by Arturia, several classics from Syntronik collection by IK Multimedia. Then back to iPad recording live knobs twisting on physical Moog Subsequent 37 CV (connected directly to iPad with PreSonus interface). Mastered in Ableton with IK, Live, NI tools. It was phunn! 

Lotsa happening in 30 seconds, hope it hooks you up. Hope you enjoy the layers of waves and grooves of vibes! Wish you may new openings in what you do and best premonition experiences leading to all good! :)

Premonition

I played this track, better say - started, this weekends on iPad with Cubasis DAW and bunch of awesome Audio Units synths by Moog, Arturia, IK Multimedia, Yonac. Live music making and making thru life with making music is what we are after - so I want to share it as is :) 

I just released the whole album of organic, made on a spot 26 tracks album. They available from my mobile upload account here @prockjet, but free SC account space is small, so I am going to shoot improvisations and one session inspiration from here from now on. Those called - PROCKJETS :)

Nocturnal

.... P.S. the beginning of track sounds dull, gets highs when drowning. Like in life you get no high notes until un-drown. Truth telling. Cheers!   

I rarely use vocal or any  samples, here felt like it. This is homage to the Art Of Noise band - one of the grandfathers of Electronic music. From Chillout to experimental and IDM. You should remember numerous TV commercial with magic and captive music - that was it The Art Of Noise.

The kick here is all analog, synthesized with Moog Subsequent 37 CV. Physical Moog is only on the kick, the most of the synths here are Ableton 10 Wavetable. I was experimenting and discovering its tones and now use all the time. Hefty sound, one synth I can understand what I am actually tweaking on. Not blindly scrolling thru the pages of presets looking for "cool" one.  Making own sound is the key. ☮

Cover art is a happy Pineapple Turtle living in Tortuga Sanctuary on Isla Mujeres, Cancun, Mexico.
