Didn't expect this....love this kind of sound, not to mention exactly - why wait?

Office friendly. Lab Rat meditative. Chill hard and shine, fellow Lab Rats! 🐀

Played with Roland Verselab and midi driven, directly recorded Moog Subsequent 37CV.  Free download today. Lab Rats only :) 

Lab Rat cover art is made on iPhone with PhotoLeap app. Relaxing way to sign off from the works of a day and mess with pictures/layers/colors. Office picture copyright belongs to whatever-furniture-company, and the rats photo belongs to the rats..... or does it?

Lab Rat

First tune I ever got public. Fast and fully made on the Korg Gadget app on iPad. Made the groove, beat and vibe. Pressed Publish from within the mobile app. Easy :) 

I was not thinking at that time the tune is about to open the most exciting musical endeavor ever. Much love and inspiration to all SC FAM!  <3

Sunday Thinker

My punk arse needed to play something very raw immediately! Like right NOW! :) Gonna get bumpy and you've being warned! hell yeah, one minute (and now by persistent request two minutes :)! I bet it finishes earlier when you press a Skip button :P  

I broke 3 good guitar picks on my Yamaha electric bass on this outburst! and grinding the Fender Silver Bullet strings on Fender Strat, (couple of those on the cover art... ney I got more solid ones, but soft picks gave nice feel to jamn').  Played by me on Fender Start and Yamaha Electric bass. Used Line 6 Pod XT and B-52 LS-100 Head and 4x12 B-52 cab.

Why Wait?!

Check my YouTube channel for some Depeche Mode tunes playing captured on iPad with iOS 11 official recorder:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-6av81MiNw&list=PLiPHwi5RqOnK05Gqpcr8owsxC7cYcV0Lw&index=1

I grabbed kick and snare, tweaked bass synth for a jamming in Korg Gadget app on iPhone 6s. My Depeche Mode piece of DNA turned the thing into a session of interpretation for “I See You” too fast. I noticed the hook turns alike this fab song from my fav 1982 album “A Broken Frame”. I submit and had a blast!

100% organic Korg Gadget sound. Literally two lines. Drum and Bass (but not that DnB one). First is drum machine spirited beats, London. Second bad ass bass from gadget Dublin. Single bass track because synth notes choke and fight each other this way. Small post treatment in Ableton Live 9.7 for more fun. British and White Channel compressors by IK Multimedia. T-Racks Classic EQ, Plate and Hall Reverb CSR, Quad Image IK tools. Automated.

Lyrics: 
All I want to do is bass you again
Is that too much to ask for?
I just wanna play your sweet bass
You never heard in years before

I can keep it in a distance, cos I don’t trust my resistance
But I swear I will touch you…. 

Well I know 35 years is a long time
And that times change (oh that times change)
But I think that you will find - People are People 
Depeche Mode people basically the same

Depeche Mood

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)

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 :)

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

Can a track do with only kick, snare, and a guitar?  In this new Fender Reprise played just recently, I wanted to enjoy the purity of clear tones and sonority and space in between them, hope you enjoy :)

I like the goings and would only play some Floydish and JMJ like synths far in the depth. But only to enhance the feel. Also played lots with NI Replika Reverb and Ableton Echo here. One special is classy green Tape Delay from IK Multimedia, liking the tool very much.
