A relaxing generative ambient track, lead by a Ts-L oscillator, with pads courtesy of Enoc, and with a little Plinky pulling its weight in the background with its shimmery choral.

Shimmering Lake

Modular ambient track created with the setup shown.  Stochastic Inspiration Generator is sequencing a 4ms Ensemble Oscillator, MSW micro Plaits, and Qu-Bit Surface with lots of reverb from a Strymon Starlab and ALA Typhoon.  uPlaits is running through the Strymon Magneto for some dubs delays with lots of feedback at times.  I'm also using an Instruo Lubadh tape looper to sample the Starlab output to create some background atmosphere.  You hear it in the repetitive tidbits.  Hope you like it.

hills like drops of blood

A funky little groove track with its base laid down with Eurorack and additional tracks with the Moog Subsequent 37 and Behringer 2600.  The solos are the Sub 37 played both on keys and using the Novation Launchpad MkIII.  The solos were first recorded as live improvisations, but alas, I can't play that accurately, so they were tweaked in StudioOne and additional composition was done to enhance the original performances.

A few tracks I made the weekend of January 26-28, 2024. Please enjoy.

Spring

Demonstration of Kermit Mark III's tempo synced modulators. 4 channels are patched into the other modules while tempo division, channel amplitude, and waveform are performed. Other modules are Industrial Music Electronics Voice (Hertz Donut, Piston Honda, Bionic Lester), some reverb, and a persistent 80bpm kick drum.

Explorations Volume 1 is a collection of 13 tracks, each created start to finish in a single sitting. No second takes, no do-overs, just stream of consciousness music.

Exploration 40

OK This is a long one, but is quite dynamic.  It starts with a self generating ambient sound from Arturia's Pigments 2.  It then goes into a chill kind of jam with Taurus Pedals providing the low bass drone, the Korg Kronos providing the the electric piano sound and I played the Novation Summit for the lead.  This lead was improvised in one take.  It then goes back to full ambient where it fades from the Pigments self generating patch into a different self generating patch on the Hydrasynth.  It then kicks it up a notch with a nice long synth solo on the Moog Subsequent 37.  It ends with the Hydrasynth fading back into the Pigments patch.

Huge credit goes to Red Means Recording whose tutorial for creating self generating patches inspired this tune.  The Hydrasynth patch is based on his tutorial.
