really great lyrics and really like the arpegios :-)

Just a little noodle of some of the sounds that didn't make the cut on my Himalaya sound set. Mariana - geddit lol! Maybe one day I'll return to this lot amongst the many others I created.

Novation Peak - Mariana

This is a track for an iPad Musician Group Challenge using the classic "I V vi IV" chord progression. I did everything on the iPad. The sequencing was handled through Genome MIDI Sequencer and I controlled the Korg iElectribe for my percussion, Sunrizer for the arpeggiated plucky synth, and NLog Pro for the low bass pad. I recorded everything into MultiTrack DAW and I then captured the vocals using the built-in iPad microphone and ran my voice through Crystalline using AudioBus. I then played the track back through AudioBus running MultiTrack DAW through Audio Mastering and capturing into AudioShare. I uploaded to SoundCloud directly from the iPad and then previewed and tweaked the post from the computer.

What Tomorrow Holds - Mastered

This is the very first thing I ever recorded. (Well, before this there was a few years of goofing around with cassette decks. But that was all vocal "comedy".)

Early 1983, I'm 14 or or maybe just 15 years old here. I just bought my first synth, a used Realistic/Moog MG-1 Concertmate MG-1 which had RCA inputs for letting you play along to your stereo. That was all the mixer it took to do this tape-to-tape, sound-on-sound recording (hence the incredibly high noise floor). Every instrument is the MG-1. Please forgive my playing, it's literally my first day. (I was already a self-taught piano player, so not my first day on a keyboard. But close!)

Sweet Dreams (Eurythmics cover) - My FIRST recording!

Another of my very first recordings, early 1983, age 15. Nothing but a Moog/Realistic MG-1 Concertmate mono-synth and a Roland TR-606 drum machine. Plus two consumer cassette tape decks to bounce the tracks back and forth through as I added new ones. I was a 15 year old kid who'd only been doing this for a couple of months but it's surprising to me now to realize how big those first steps can be, sometimes. I wouldn't do what I do now if it hadn't been for this learning experience. (Photo is my high-school graduating class; I'm in there somewhere. This is actually 2 years after this was recorded. The music store that I used to cuff class in and bought this early gear from was just opposite the camera.)

Games Without Frontiers (Peter Gabriel cover)

I worked with this fantastic indie game about an entire year. All the music was composed by using analog and digital synthesizers and hardware effects.

The soundtrack album can be entirely previewed and purchased here:

The game itself is available here on Steam (Also on GOG and Humble store):  
store.steampowered.com/app/311010/  

Here's the game trailer I composed as well:

Many songs required a lot of work but there are also moments of instant, spontaneous improvising. Particulary "Proceeding forward" song was entirely improvised in one single take!

For fellow gear nerds, here is list of my setup used for the game soundtrack: 

Synthesizers/sound sources: 
- Yamaha CS-50 
- Roland RS-505 
- Sequential Circuits Pro-One 
- Generalmusic S3 Turbo 
- Technics WSA1 
- Roland JV-2080 (+ Vintage Synth, Orchestral, World) 
- Roland JD-990 (+ Vintage Synth) 
- Korg X3R 
- Yamaha EX-5R 
- Korg O3 Symphony Module (choir) 
- Akai S2000 (Spectrasonics - Symphony of voices) 
- Yamaha CP-60M 
- Simmons SDS8 

Effects: 
- Lexicon 224 
- Lexicon PCM-70 

All the sequences were performed in live, triggered and transposed with Zyklus MPS-1 - Midi Performance System. Oberheim Systemizer handles the advanced master keyboard functions.

Turn Toward The Light

This is the Behringer Model D programmed like the main sound in "The Robots". This is my version, it is NOT perfect but just wanted to show people they could get MUCH closer to the original than previously heard.  I could have spent a lot more time on this to get it closer but this will do for now.

You may not know Maedon, the artist formerly known as pulsewidthmod, but you will soon; she has been pulverizing select dance floors with live sets since her arrival in Brooklyn late summer of 2018. Shrouded in mystery, there is one thing known about her, she’s a wizard with the hardware driven by some fierce passion for the music.

After having toured across the country on her own, she released a 12“ EP with the highly-respected Detroit Underground. Now she is ready to bring her work to the next level with a hard-hitting EP that epitomizes her sound on Adam X‘s legendary Sonic Groove label. The label, of course, is known for delivering some of the hardest and intricate records in EBM and industrial, having releases from Rebekah, Dasha Rush, and Orphx.

Against His Will opens with the uncompromising ‚Illusion‘ and its all-out destructive energy.
