about

Hi everyone, I'm about to go on a long holiday so this will be the last piece I post for a while. This piece was composed by tracking long improvised tracks without any edits, just performing along to the previous improvisations.

The first was a piano from OP-1 (a free sample I got from somewhere) through Thermae. Through the wonders of unsynced devices the OP-1 arpeggio and the Thermae create a piano part that shifts gradually and gracefully.

The next was my beloved Realistic Concertmate MG-1 (video coming on this one soon) through the Chase Bliss Audio Habit and the CXM 1978to also throw curveballs at me with randomness. I did one pass with a bass tone, and the next with a tone that sounds like metallic feedback.

The final pass uses the MG-1 with another voicing that used a lot of the noise generator mixed in with the "tone sources" as well as a little bit of portamento. I know it's easy to overuse portamento, but it always gives me a thrill :) Anyway, this pass I set aside the CBA effects and just used my Hologram Microcosm on the Strum setting (#1). As I improvised melodies I also fiddled with the Microcosm, most of it was changing the time and the activity.

Hope you enjoy this piece! As always please support by following me here or finding me on YouTube or Insta.

Gear used on this track:
OP-1, Chase Bliss Habit, Thermae, CXM 1978, Hologram Microcosm, Concertmate MG-1

I love making murky music -- ambient, drones and even songs with beats. I use effects pedals, tape and other fun toys to design sounds and textures to create dreamy atmospheres. I'm forever making the soundtrack to an imagined film.
