Unknown Cause - UP 4000 (BB)

A breakbeat remix by me of the beautiful tracks Fourcolor & Moskitoo - Quiet Gray found on the album "As Pleat" released on the label "12k" in 2011.
 
You can find the original version of Quiet Grey 1 here:

It was fun interpreting someone elses work in my own way. It is such a lovely set of tracks, and i loved the idea of using the themes in a different style.

Hope you enjoy it!

Don`t forget to check out more of the work of the talented Fourcolor and his other projects, here`s a link to his website:

Unknown Cause live @ Angels Rave (Electric Fusion 7. December 2013) 

All tracks produced and performed by Unknown Cause.

live @ Angels Rave (Electric Fusion 7. December 2013)

I have a massive backlog of music... so while I get up to speed on the EP releases, I figured I could share something from the practice lab.

This whole thing was recorded live, using the Machinedrum and Megacommand Live system (which greatly expands the live possibilities of the MD) recorded with my newly acquired Push(2). The MCL is also sequencing a Monomachine that does a bunch of stabs, pads and echoes. There are a few TR8S patterns sprinkled in there too, as well as a few tracks mixed in from other modular or push sessions. Can you spot which tracks ? =)

Really a test-session to see how I will organize and synchronize my recorder-trigs between the MD/MCL and Push/Live. As you can hear, a solution is yet to be implemented =P pattern repetitions that sometimes repeat at odd, un-expected times, sounds that overstay their welcome and then some... I like it. 

Raw and honest. Pretty much straight off the machinery in that moment, never to be repeated if not caught on tape... uhm.. bits?

Elektronaut Sessions: Exhibit B

Greyscale 03 is the third chapter in the evocative Greyscale series by Unknown Cause, offering a quartet of tracks that delve into the depths of dub music with an organic twist. The opening track sets the tone with its earthy and classic dub influence that combines organic soundsources but remains deeply hypnotic. As the album progresses, the energy picks up with the three subsequent tracks, each offering a layered techno experience that remains true to the organic and earthly essence of the series. Unknown Cause continues to experiment with the fusion of natural and synthesized sounds and classic dub techniques. Greyscale 03 is an essential addition to the libraries of dub techno aficionados and those seeking a fresh take on technoid dub music.

This live set is a culmination of years spent designing and building a custom modular synth system, blending together various hardware jams into an immersive, organic experience. 
Each track is a raw, unaltered recording of modular patches, capturing the spontaneous nature of live performance. Occasionally, drum-machine elements are layered in, all routed through a 24-channel API analog summing mixer that I've soldered together by hand, ensuring an entirely analog (and very personal) signal path for most of the set.

While a few tracks were produced using a DAW, their foundation remains rooted in recordings from my modular setup, maintaining the same tactile and hands-on approach. The entire set is mixed using Traktor 4, taking advantage of its incredible stem separation feature, which allows me to deconstruct stereo tracks into multi-track mixes, turning a traditional DJ set into something more akin to a live studio session. Every sound is given room to breathe, creating an evolving soundscape that’s both spontaneous and meticulously crafted.

Mastering was also done in-house, ensuring that every detail of this set is true to the vision I had when performing it live. This is more than just a mix; it’s an exploration of sound through the systems I’ve built, designed to push boundaries and redefine what a live electronic performance can be.

A recording of my live set at Gehør Listening Bar · 19/09/25

Recording started a little late, so the first ~20 first minutes are missing — thankfully I was reminded to hit that elusive record button. Thanks, Anaïs 🙏

The set is a concoction of released & unreleased tracks and recorded hardware jams, repurposed live in Traktor.
Performed using NI X1 MK3 / Z1 / 2×F1, with deep control over stems, loops, effects, and the T4 drum machine.

All tracks are, as always, original Unknown Cause productions.

Big thanks to the Gehør crew for having me, and to everyone who came to listen and dance.

Enjoy.

Tømtedøbb is an old project that almost never made it off my hard-drive, luckily it did and is now dubbed around the world.
