I've been bad and haven't uploaded any of my work recently. I wonder if I've been at all distracted by anything...

Anyways, this is called Fubar because things are super FUBAR right now. It's a song that asks if everything is ok, then answers its own question. 

The bassline is handled by the boog (behringer model d clone). I like to use a long decay and slowly bring in attack on the vcf. The vocal sampling is handled by the goated microsampler. I sample each word or half word into a separate key and play it back. The levels are a little janky with the room mic picking things up. The rhythm that comes in part way is a favorite wavetable patch of mine on the microsampler called wafe.

If you like projection mapping and trippy visuals, head over to my youtube for a video of the performance. 

Fubar - Live Performance

132 bpm! Our latest release has been remixed/merged about 3 times and was originally a Tape Lab track that just kept morphing:) Added too many layers to mention when using Traktor and finally added some Hendrix styled reversed guitar. We labelled it Experimental but it’s actually like a mix of House & Jazz:) Btw, there is no trumpet in this mix. What may sound like one (high pitched screeching sound) is actually a micro modular synth (Clavia). So now you know:)

Brillman & Tapelab - Waldorf Salad (baby mix)

Just jammin’ & testing some gear:) Apart from the guitar riffs here and there the Moog Labyrinth takes the spotlight in «VCW» (as the title suggests:)) Headphones are nice. 
A technical note: The Labyrinth was not midi synced to the rest of the track so it runs at a separate bpm (not sure how fast). Enjoy the ride and thanks for listening!

As I was saying am currently experimenting a lot with guitar & FX so a very quick mix here that you may enjoy. Mixed a guitar loop with some midi synths then merged both in Traktor. Headphones are good but not too loud:)

Glitch guitar (traktor mix)

Freshly made a couple of days ago:) Fairly minimal for me. Headphones recommended or loud in a club?

Talk It Out Ft 4QJB

A really long track that’s scheduled to be released as a single (check buy link). This is an mp3 version. 
Headphones recommended:) Thanks for listening.

A Synth Odyssey

MPC One - low bass drone, drums, pads
Model D - niggle
Minilogue - mid bass drone w/LFO
neutron - noise hats/blips
microfreak - atmospherics

20250525 HWJ Droner

Just an older track to excuse my absence, preparing some of the newer unheard ones for posting. Uploaded the original mixdown render file for download.

WOOHOO [DL Enabled]

This is a place for electronic doodles to reside, no specific genres but broadly under the techno banner and all made with hardware synths. . . Currently my working kit consists of MPC One with S-1 & T-8 or Octatrack, blofeld, Erebus, Circuit Mono Station, and Zoom CDR-70 pedal  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Brillman has been an electronic online musician during the last 20 years using many different names: Brillman, Controlfreak, freakcontrol, Red Karma, Atmosphere, Zero Loop, Pan64, Randomcontrol, geometric delay and Superfreak! Brillman mainly creates original sounds from hardware synths but also uses guitar, samplers, vocals or even poetry. He primarily utilizes a 4 to the floor approach. The aesthetics behind the music is about finding a balance between minimalism vs. depth & improvisation vs. programmed.
