Optimist (pre-mix pre-master)

A two oscilator patch from the Behringer Moog modular oscilators, played duophonically through the MIDI keyboard, using 2x Moog filters and an Doepfer Xpanders 2xLP filter, sent through my Blackhole DSP reverb and Micro Rings, recorded in one take (with the metronome!) and then further processed with Valhalla Vintage Reverb and Omnicide.

Then sent through Neuron 3 and TEOTE for some attempt at mixing/mastering.

Ambient Modular Noodle

Fragments (WIP)

I created this live on a Twitch.tv stream from several midi parts from a midi chord sequence kit, editing them, creating a few more complimentary ones, and voicing the parts using various soft synths and drum machines in Ableton. Turned out quite well I think!

Smack My Orinoco Ninja Flow Up Bitch (DJDC's Going To Hell Mix)

I recreated this from a MIDI clip I found on the internet of the main melody of the Deadmaus5 - Vedlt track, with the parts selected from U-he Diva presets. I think it is pretty close to the original!

DJDC - When Smokey Covenants

This is a demo of the Dark Energy MK1 modular synth by Doepfer. It has been discontinued and is difficult to find due to the availability of its analogue sound chip, the CEM3394. This is the same chip used in the old Sequential Circuits' Six-Trax synth, and has a unique sound.

Demo of Doepfer Dark Energy MK1

Recorded in one session from my Eurorack modular, with only a tiny bit of cutting and rearranging.

On The Shoulder Of Orion

An impromptu collaboration mix with the fine people at the Manchester Music Production Meetup group.


Through The Rain (Meetup Mix)

Some experiments with creating a noise atmospheric track with just the modular. Three oscilators, one quantiser, and a white noise sound source, with LFOs and Maths taking modulation duties around a Ladik sequencer.

I decided to try and update the classic comedy industrial hip-hop song 'KOMPRESSOR DOES NOT DANCE' by KOMPRESSOR as I wanted to play it in my Industrial/EBM sets, but it was produced over 15 years ago and did not sound as fresh as I thought I could make it. I threw it through some mastering and mixing plugins and tweaked things for a while, and I think the result is a much more powerful sound. I have released it for free download as the original track is not owned by me, and was also released for free download back in the day. I hope you enjoy the new version and play it in your sets :)

For comparison, the original is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ofYNHRcspM

KOMPRESSOR - KOMPRESSOR DOES NOT DANCE (DJDC Version)

The musical journal of David Craddock. I also used to produce music under the name of 'Cachebuster'. I make experimental electronic music.  I upload (nearly) everything, and this is a chronology of my musical experiments starting from 2013 when I first started producing music.
