Just a little of fun with Korg Volca Drum and volca Keys experimenting with "Jump Mode" and nervous synth tweaking :D . I'm recently recording my jams in multitrack using the Allen & Heath Zedi 10fx that it's great for this kind of small setup. The recorded track are a little mixed in Ableton adding a little of eq, some reverbs and a light compression. Enjoy!

ABSTRACT BREAKS JAM with KORG VOLCA DRUM and VOLCA KEYS

watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/xE4aZt0fSRs

Recently moving on more experimental territories i decided to make a try with Korg Volca Keys Poly Ring oscillator. I made a pluck bass sound using various clusters and chord combinations in order to excite the ring modulation and used the pitch envelope to create a percussive type sound. The Volca Beats add a warm and fat minimal rhythm and the Modal Craft Synth 2.0 glue everything with a long and moving pad. I recently recording in multi track with Ableton Live so i added some reverb and a little of side-chain compression. Enjoy!

DARK AMBIENT JAM with KORG VOLCA KEYS BEATS and MODAL CRAFT SYNTH 2 0

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/9V12VtOESDs

A new gear is arriving here so as usual i need to squeeze a little my old instruments before switch to a new one. Today i used the Novation Circuit, the first groovebox i bough in order to create this channel, and the Korg Volca Keys, also the first synth of this "adult" return to machines (i used to play with the Yamaha RM1x in the first 2000s). In this Drum'n'bass jam i used the two Circuit synths for the basslines (the only thing i really don't like of this machine is the impossibility to make a sound from scratch on board, hate to plug it into a PC) using custom patches, for the drums (also my personal samples) and the Volca Keys for the pads (it's pretty limited but you can tweak the sound as you want). The result is a dark rolling dnb mixtape. I'm recently recording in multi-tracks with Allen & Heat Zedi10 on Ableton Live, so when i use two or more instruments i can make some edits like cut out the pads tails and a more accurate mixdown. Sadly the camera goes off during the performance so i added a short scene to compensate but the final part (when i switched on the camera) goes out of sync :)
Enjoy!

DRUM and BASS MIXTAPE with NOVATION CIRCUIT and KORG VOLCA KEYS

Incredible OPLL Mix

burn by the way you do

Been playing this, kinda unexpectedly when I was about to turn off everything, but when pressing a button or two, it suddenly started flowing.
It comes as recorded and I have no idea if it contains major flaws, yet (had to turn down the volume a bit cuz "mv /usr/kids /home/bed -f" y'kno), but should I discover significant nuisances, I might take it down again lol

Anyways, enjoy

This is a sort of drum and bass with live synthesizers and drum computers jam. It is far from a perfect performance, but I felt like sharing this jam anyway. I wish I had been a bit tighter while keyboard playing, but yea, it's a jam, lots of discoveries in the moment. I had a lot of fun, and I like the ideas.

This time I prepared some midi clips beforehand. A wobble bass loop for the matriarch, a walking bass loop for the Volca FM2 (one version bass only, one version bass plus extra voice). I made a main beat on the TR606, and an additional percussion layer on the drumbrute. I prepared a sound to play on the Volca Keys with my novation midi keyboard.

Sort of DnB Jam (606, Matriarch, Volca FM2 and Keys, Drumbrute)

After a few busy months i'm returned to my synthesizers! For this simple jam i used the Korg Volca Keys with a simple drone style sequence, poly oscillator with a light LFO on pitch and filter, the Korg Monotron as noise / sweeps generator, an old Realistic Stereo Disco Mixer for submix plugged into a Zoom G1on digital multi FX with a custom stereo chain. I added a footage of a recent exploration in the unused basement of a 1850 palace. Enjoy!

DARK AMBIENT DRONE JAM with KORG VOLCA KEYS / MONOTRON and ZOOM G1on

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/KW4AHjavSw0

in this Dark Ambient Jam i used two Volcas processed with Zoom digital multi FX. With the Korg Volca Drum i programmed a glitchy drums and bass sequence (using probability and layering bass tones with noises) and i plugged into the Zoom B1on multi FX where i used a custom chain with compressor / overdrive / short reverb that push the sound (expecially low frequencies) add armonics with a light distorsion and spazialize with the stereo Plate reverb. With Volca Keys i made a dark / spooky pad using the poly osc and plugged into the Zoom G1on (this one with another custom chain with Chorus / Particle Reverb / Spring Reverb) and tweaked with a really fast LFO on pitch and filter that add a grainy texture to the Keys sounds. I added some images that i filmed during the 2023 forest wildfire in north Italy for a visual addition to this cinematic jam. Enjoy!
