Of Canyons Wide and Rivers Deep (a study in drones)
This piece was inspired by a trip to the Grand Canyon when I was a kid, though I'm not really old enough to remember much of it. The natural formations made from millions of years of erosion are fascinating and beautiful. I've also been inspired by ambient music and specifically drones lately, and I wanted to try my hand at making something with many different drones at once. The overall chord in this piece is a C Major 6/9, with each synth playing either a single note or a few notes of the chord, and they drift in and out over the course of the piece, so they are rarely all playing at the same time. This piece features the Moog Sub25 processed by Fjord Fuzz Loke, the Moog Subharmonicon, the Make Noise 0-Coast, the 4MS Ensemble Oscillator (all 3 of them being processed by Chase Bliss Generation Loss v2), the Sequential Prophet Rev2, the Waldorf Blofeld, and the Novation Peak. The whole mix is being fed through Valhalla Supermassive reverb.

Here's a little thing I made using Ornament and Crime's Sequins app for the first time. O_C is sequencing both the 0-Coast and Rings, while the Subharmonicon is using its internal sequencer clocked by the 0-Coast. The whole vibe of the track is meant to be nostalgic, and a big part of that is feeding the whole modular through the reel to reel tape model on Generation Loss V2 pedal from @ChaseBl...
Jam 13 (Drumbrute, Modular, Subsequent 25)
zhlédnutí 257Před 2 měsíci
Another jam here for you all. Here we have the Arturia Drumbrute Impact kick (not pictured), a sequence from Rings in FM mode, Tides bass line, and some kind of flutey resonance thing from the 4MS Ensemble Oscillator. Melody is the Subsequent 25 being processed by Fjord Fuzz Loke pedal, which you can barely see on the far right side sitting on the edge of the Prophet. Fun stuff! #electronicmusi...
For my mom on Mother's Day

This is a hymn called "I Love You Lord and I Lift My Voice." It's a song my mom and I used to sing together right before I went to bed when I was a kid. This video is for her. Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Star Wars Day to all who celebrate! This little original piece was made with Spitfire Audio LABS samples and Arturia Analog Lab piano. And also a Moog Subsequent 25 at the end for Vader's theme. May the 4th be with you, always. #spitfireaudio #arturia #analoglab #moogsynthesizers #moog #starwars #maythe4thbewithyou
Modular Rig Tour
zhlédnutí 96Před 4 měsíci
After I posted my studio tour video a couple months ago, I got a few comments asking me to do a tour of my modular setup. So here is the modular tour. I'm no expert on any of these modules, or even synthesis in general, but I'll talk a bit about what modules I have and how I try to use them. #modularsynth #eurorack #electronicmusic #makenoisemusic #mutableinstruments #intellijel
The Prelude (cover)
zhlédnutí 211Před 5 měsíci
Here's a little cover version of The Prelude from Final Fantasy VII. The famous arpeggio is being played by the Novation Peak, using its onboard delay and just a little bit of Valhalla Supermassive reverb. The bass is, as always, the Moog Subsequent 25 with Juno Chorus, and the chords are an Oberheim-style patch on the Sequential Prophet Rev 2. I'm playing the melody on an EWI 5000, which is co...
Dolphin Dance DESTROYED with modular synth (apologies to Herbie Hancock)
zhlédnutí 330Před 6 měsíci
Here I pulled a recording of Herbie Hancock's song "Dolphin Dance" off the radio (it just happened to be playing). I froze a few seconds of it in the Clouds buffer, and mangled it with my system for a few minutes. Fun stuff! #modularsynth #electronicmusic #experimentalmusic #synthesizer

Here's something that isn't ambient! Model Cycles serving as rhythm section, JU-06A on bass, Prophet Rev2 chords, and Subsequent 25 (controlled by the EWI 5000). Enjoy. #electronicmusic #hardwarejam #moog #sequential #roland #synthesizer #subsequent25 #prophetrev2 #elektronik #modelcycles
Singing Bowls (Singing Bowl and Modular duet)
zhlédnutí 162Před 8 měsíci
I think singing bowls are neat. I bought this little one online a month or two ago. I thought it would be interesting to have it do a little duet with Rings, since both the bowl and rings are resonators. Rings is going through Nautilus as well. The mic I used is an AKG P40, and is being run through an ART Pro Channel II tube channel strip. Reverb is Valhalla Supermassive. #singingbowl #electron...
Modular+Shallow Water+Loke
zhlédnutí 116Před 8 měsíci
I thought it might be interesting to run the stereo outputs of my modular system into 2 different but kind of similar effects pedals. The patch itself is simple: just the keystep sequencing tides, then filtered via popple, then some delay from nautilus, then finally through clouds (though clouds isn't really doing anything to the sound). The left channel is going through Shallow Water by Fairfi...

Who doesn't love Gene Wilder singing this song in the original Chocolate Factory movie? I thought it would be fun to try and play it on the EWI, which I'm still learning. Here the EWI is controlling the Waldorf Blofeld and the chords are a wonderful Oberheim style pad made by @j3po784 for the Prophet Rev2. #electronicmusic #pureimagination #synthesizer #sequential #waldorf #blofeld #prophetrev2...
Drone for a Rainy Night (Ensemble, Tides, Maths, Nautilus, Clouds)
zhlédnutí 306Před 9 měsíci
Some sounds for a rainy evening in the fall. There's kind of a lot going on here, and I won't describe all of it. It's a pretty simple ambient/drone sequence with lots of modulation to create movement within the timbre of the sounds. I was trying to create the most complex and interesting sound I could with my system. There's also a field recording of some rain. I like how it turned out. #ambie...
