Another performance from WFZ Project, this time with a new entry: the Korg Karma used for pads and stabs. As usual (for this project) i made this song using a little of post processing, i splitted with panning the kick from other percussions and basses (on Electribe) in order to use sidechaining and the other instruments are recorded on a multi track session. The Korg Karma is a workstation and synthetizer from 2001, in this performance i just used a couple of pad/keys in a simple midi sequence, hope to make more using the internal functionality and the hundred of great sounds from the Triton family. 
Enjoy!

WFZ Project - 2001 - PERFORMED With KORG KARMA  ELECTRIBE 2S  HACKTRIBE And KAOSSILATOR MK1

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/6mI98jTIQls

New jam with Elektron Model:Cycles, a powerful six tracks FM groobox ideal for some kind of deep and heavy bass music sonorities. In this collection of techno grooves i made different lead synth lines with pulsing kick and bass, using the long attack bass trick to simulate sidechaining. All the transition are enriched with the old but gold first generation Korg Kaossilator, a dynamic phrease synthetyzer that i use a lot as a FX and risers generator.
Enjoy!

After 3 years i finally reached the 1000 subs stone, so i decided to make something a little different. After the summer outdoor experiences i wanted to try the "urbex jam"! The first idea was to record the music directly during the urbex but... sometimes abandoned places just looks abandoned so i made a lot of exploration clips but no music... anyway we shooted (i was with two new friends the i greed) in a abandoned Clausure Convent, made in early '900 over a medieval castle. For the music i used the Korg Electribe 2s Hacktribe and the Korg Kaossilator. Both batteries operating (just because the first idea to play during the urbex) are programmed with dark halftime grooves where i tried out some polymeters over the main beat in a totally synthesized jam. I sinced the music performance to the exploration in the most immersive way i found :D Enjoy!

HALFTIME JAM with KORG ELECTRIBE 2S HACKTRIBE + URBEX - 1000 SUBS SPECIAL

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/CFa90Jd3jqw

New jam with my Korg Electribe 2s with the Hacktribe firmware. A lot of new gears are coming and all looks attractive :D but i think i have a little more to do with my old gears so i decided to sample some Elektron Model Cycles FM waveforms (just an E long note directly into the Electribe Line In) in order to use the ES filters and FX with more rich and complex oscillators than the internal. The result is a dark drum and bass groove with growling basses made with both synth and samples, the Kaossilator as usual add e little of spice to the mix. Enjoy!

DARK DRUM AND BASS ROLLER JAM with KORG ELECTRIBE 2S HACKTRIBE and KAOSSILATOR

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/qBaC41ncvFg

Another axperiment with AI (Pika Labs) and grooveboxes, this time with one of my favourite hacked instrument: the Korg Electribe 2s Hacktribe. I programmed 5 different 140 / dubstep / future garage beats using internal synth and the onboard sampler. I recorded the simple vocals using a simple SM 58 plugged into the machine, all the synth sound are processed with insert FX and Master FX, the Hacktribe version provide a bounch of extra Ins. As usual i used the Korg Kaossilator for xtra moving Fx. Enjoy!

140 DUBSTEP FUTURE GARAGE JAM with KORG ELECTRIBE 2S HACKTRIBE

Watch the full performance here: https://youtu.be/aSyZ4D6hJiY?si=6SldZAiM2a8uzgEC

New jam with Elektron Model:Cycles, a really powerful FM synth groovebox with lot of hidden tricky geeky features that blow my mind every time :D
After the metallic and musical delay used on basslines i made some experiments with track multipliers: as everyone know the MC is based on step sequencing, so all the motion recordings have a standard definition of 16 steps with no smooth motion options but... with the track multiplier you can easily double (or more... 2000k!) the definition of your grid and get smooth automations. The lenght become shorter but with trigger conditions and probability you can have also longer patterns. I made a Neurofunk Drum and Bass tune to test all these modulation possibilities, i used my beloved Korg Kaossilator for add Fx and movements to the arrangement. Enjoy!

NEUROFUNK DRUM AND BASS JAM with ELEKTRON MODEL CYCLES and KORG KAOSSILATOR

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

After one year i made another axperiment with AI videos (Minimax) and grooveboxes, again this time with one of my favourite hacked instrument: the Korg Electribe 2s Hacktribe. I programmed 5 different 140 / UKG / 2Step / Future Garage beats using internal synth and the onboard sampler. For the basslines i create some 3 layers bass sound design reminescent of 2000s reece bass tecnique (splitting a saw in sub, mid and hi and using internal filters, flanger/phaser and LFO to add movement to every layers). All the synth sound are processed with insert FX and Master FX, the Hacktribe version provide a bounch of extra Ins. As usual i used the Korg Kaossilator for extra moving Fx. 
About the visual: i create a sequence of clips with Minimax in order to create a complete immersion to the music across an imaginary world. Enjoy!
