What I really like about this is how someone with some really interesting musical ideas can create something that sounds far more interesting with just one tiny little unit like this compared to others who have got 50 vintage synthesisers in their studio worth a fortune and yet all they can come up with is rubbish. Ideas reign supreme!
The tools matter too. M:C is a unique creative space with just enough power to actually make a song. Syntakt takes obvious inspiration not just with the sound engine but its plethora of tracks. M:C is better because it is much quicker, the UX is very different.
Long time no see! Welcome back! Great live performance as always! Your melodies and rhythms are always unique! Ciao 😎 p.s.: playing our music: it's the only thing that keeps me going during this strange period in history.
Most interesting music i ever heard from single one Model:Cycles instance .. you really pushed the device way behnd it's usual borders .. amazing job !
Everybody hammering new videos with VS visual synth; Cuckoo “I have a new wooden table”! Nice to see you back madlad, and thanks for the new 2021 ringtone.
I'm doing AWESOME! (thanks for asking) We live in a remote area of Canada, still doing dance parties and jam sessions, and spending lots of time out in the garden, and very little listening to the drama online and in the media.......Always a pleasure to hear what you're doing.......ALWAYS AS KILLER GROOVE - inspiring and full of playful noises.. ... I love that you always have an upbeat, optimistic outlook, and I think that, and your groovy tracks, as just the medicine we all need to keep our spirits strong - Covid - if we handle it right, it's a great time for feeling Gratitude (for the people and positive stimulus in our lives), and a great time to explore our creativity...........PS ...You're a Nut, of the very best variety....Love your stuff.....
If I didn’t know beforehand I would have recognized your style instantly when the groove started. That is amazing you have a “voice” on an instrument so computerized, quantized and digital. It’s like Eddie Van Halen or Jimi Hendrix could pick up ANY guitar and you would know who it is.
A truck outside my apartment honked just at the end of the first bar and it synced up perfectly! Thank you for sharing Cuckoo, and so cool to see how hyped you got with such an excellent performance 🥰
True Cuckoo. If you made a melody with that cup and a spoon, it would sound you. Amazing. But the vibe here hits me in the visceral. Has to do with living the 80s/early 90s when everything sounded FM like. I played your previous ring tone video over and over and I want and need to thank you for this.
Super fun! I am getting through a long week, but felt creative enough last night to draft some new lyrics. ❤️ Hopefully a song coming together this weekend.
how adorable you are! It's really amazing that you transport your incredible, special energy through what you do and how you present it, full of honest enthusiasm. I'm lost for words. I'm happy that you do what you do and you are who you are and don't hide when you're full of emotion. Thank you!
love the song and the performance cuckoo! glad to see you able to perform and have a good time doing it in the new space. i’ve dived deeper and deeper into synths throughout this year since i discovered them, and your videos have been not only a huge inspiration to be creative but also extremely informative for me as a synth noob trying to find my voice and performance style. 🙌🏻
Your vibe is so wholesome☺ Been watching this channel for almost a year when I first got the model:cycles. Since then I've acquired more gear but I hear jams like this and it inspires me to focus on using just the cycles. Big ups broh from ATL
Woohoo!!!!! Dancing in my body!!!! I have yet to master the melodic synth playing in the Model cycles. This little bugger is giving me a tough time with anything but step recording. Thanks for your in-depth tutorial. It really helped me. And…. I love these grooves and melodies. You rock!!!!!!💚🌸💚🌸💚🌸💚 Oh yeah ….I now support you on Patreon!!! And happy to do so!!!!!!😘
Great performance and fun. Cycles is a ton of fun. I’ve had mine for a few days. Your samples tutorial helped me grasp the sequencer of cycles. Excellent work.
Love your vibes, your videos and your creative talents. I moved to a new house, and have to move my studio equipment into a hot un air conditioned garage. I got everything going and I heard a huge pop in the wall and smelled burning wires. So, I’m on a hiatus from making music til an electrician can make it out here. But, in the meantime, I watched your new studio video and really dig the simple design idea. I got a new Electron Digitakt and am just going to try and do as much as I can on that one small machine. Creativity can come many different ways, but forcing yourself to use just one piece of gear can really get some interesting and creative results. I think it’s great to break up the workflow. I am currently considering ditching the laptop and Abelton and see what I can come up with just hardware. That’s how I started, and kind of miss just laying down 8 tracks on a groove box or sequencer. Anyway, love love your channel, think you are so eccentric and interesting to see watch, and just have such a relaxing and almost hypnotizing vibe that I really find relaxing and easy to watch. Hope your having a good week and will check back soon for some new videos.
Songlad to see you back around ! Tres heureux que tu te portes bien et que tu nous balances encore toute la musique et la délicatesse que tu peux faire !
Hey Cuckoo... I enjoy Your alltime fresh attitude... just a child playing and enjoying himself aaaand infecting other artists and people like me.... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS POSITIVE ENERGY!!!
Nice, welcome back Cuckoo! It's great to hear how no matter which piece of hear you use it just sounds like...you! Looking forward to seeing the studio evolve.
Cuckoo, I just love the whimsy and playfulness of your music. So wonderfully creative! Is there music you listen to to inspire you? Maybe a favorite cd?
A perfomance video!! Nice!!! Kinda tired of reviews and walk through and I really want artists like you to actually share performances. I know these videos don't do as well as reviews and walkthrough but I love them! Awesome stuff Cuckoo!! Have you ever thought about performing on Twitch? I'd totally be down for a Cuckoo Twitch concert.
Thanks a lot, friend! I appreciate you. I have thought about live streaming performances, but I don't know the Twitch platform very well… It seems a bit foreign to me. I think TH-cam is a platform where I can reach out better with my live streaming. But I'm watching some Twitch streamers from time to time.
@@truecuckoo I honestly believe you would be less hindered and have a more solid base of foundation with youtube as well. Cheers mate as you have helped me understand my KORG wavestate better ✌🇨🇦👍 much love!!
Glad to see you back Cuckoo, miss your videos so much. I just got the Novation Peak so i was watching your old tutorial on that ,would love you to make a new one with the updated FW, your style is unique and very jolly always makes me smile. Keep up the Fantastic Soundgasms !!!!
Ah yeah Cuckoo! Looking and sounding great in the new space! 🤘🍻 Getting by with some laughs from the kids and wife and making music in the wee hours between each day. 😁
Every aspect of this was enjoyable. You have such a unique sound and style that makes me want to head bop right there with you. Awesome job, seriously a pleasure to listen to.
Yo Cuckoo ! So nice to have you back. You're smile enlight the days of so many people ! I feel good thank you, still really hard to commit to work on music everyday and do something of it I don't know what holds me back but I've just started and it requires a lot of energy. I hope YOU doing well too, you seems to. Have a wonderful week. Nice performance, loved this one.
Why does this instantly sound so great? Seriously, performances like this convinced me in getting a Cycles, but damn, watching this I realize I've nearly scratched the surface of this wonderful device
Unfortunately for the rest of us mere mortals, Cuckoo is one of those geniuses who can make any instrument sound amazing. You could give him a crappy Bontempi organ from the 70s and he'd still create a track that knocks it out of the park.
Damned, what a nice somehow laidback track, thumbs up! AND THOSE CRAZY VISUALS IN FORM OF A GROOVING COOCKU It seems you had a lot of fun and that is beautiful to see
Wow what sounds 😍 amazing 👏👏 keep on going what you are doing 😉✌🏻 the sound world what you are creating is so energetic and Joy full 🥰 easy could hear this kind sound In my future animations 😬✌🏻 love it ❤️ what a wonderfull personality 🥳😍
Utrolig inspirerende - takk! Det første jeg vil gjøre nå er å børste støv av M:S'en og sette i gang, alt takket være din energi, musikalitet og improvisasjonsevne (og din fantastiske tutorial i M:S som var gull verdt). Du er rå! Keep it up!
The sound reminds me a little of Kraftwerk's the Mix album and also their Expo 2000 track. The probably used a DX7 (or maybe a FM200 groovebox) but similar-ish sound IMO!
Love that! Great piece of music as always 😊Your "First Try" Video on the Model:Cycles was such a cool jam also - would be great to hear that on a track of yours 👍👍
"Let's shake hands, fist bump, everything"
I love this guy.
Yeah I really appreciated that. I'm not too great these days in particular but cuckoo does his fucking best to just keep it goddamn real and pleasant.
What I really like about this is how someone with some really interesting musical ideas can create something that sounds far more interesting with just one tiny little unit like this compared to others who have got 50 vintage synthesisers in their studio worth a fortune and yet all they can come up with is rubbish.

▲ hello cuckoo, this is tri&gle. how do you achieve these natural portamentos with the model:cycles?
Most interesting music i ever heard from single one Model:Cycles instance .. you really pushed the device way behnd it's usual borders .. amazing job !
Everybody hammering new videos with VS visual synth; Cuckoo “I have a new wooden table”! Nice to see you back madlad, and thanks for the new 2021 ringtone.
Seriously, this was my mood lifter today. This joy of performing is contagious! Thanks, Cuckoo!

I love how much you love what you’re doing. Keep on man, this was fantastic.
❤️
Cuckoo you are a true talented, inspirational musician. Please never stop making live performances like this one !!! Thank you
This song is so sick! My favorite song youve done so far. Your energy, performance and handshake, everything. Great, great stuff man
You always manage to use the full potential of every piece of gear and at the same time everything you touch sounds and feels like Cuckoo
Thanks! I really enjoy performing one one device at a time, and do the most out of it!
It gave me a big smile watching you smile and get into it! I got the same moves and shaky fingers when I play too! Keep being awesome you!
NOBODY sounds like Cuckoo. It would be rather difficult to try emulating him! Sooo unique and whimsical :)
Really liked this one, brother. Groovy, melodic and interesting. Well played 👍👍👍
Thank you so much DJEM!
Dude you sound like YOURSELF on EVERYTHING. So great. Happy to see you back!
You are a wizard!
Oh man, so refreshing! Love your style! I feel like being in the early 90's and attend a Richard David James performance
Love when it kicks in at 2:50
Nevermind I love all of it.
This is the most Cuckoo track ever!
And I mean that in the most positive way imaginable!
Amazing work! You have really plumbed the depths of this instrument. I need to dive deeper into mine. Very inspiring.
it's good to see you back. I have missed your style and insight into music production
Thanks for your comments regarding ’present times’ …really touched me.
Wow, by far the best thing I've ever seen anyone do with a Model:Cycles.
3:42 transition was hype
A truck outside my apartment honked just at the end of the first bar and it synced up perfectly! Thank you for sharing Cuckoo, and so cool to see how hyped you got with such an excellent performance 🥰
Too many missed you, Cucks
so good to see you.
Awaiting to see you decipher the Wavestate again
Thank you as always 👍

i’ve dived deeper and deeper into synths throughout this year since i discovered them, and your videos have been not only a huge inspiration to be creative but also extremely informative for me as a synth noob trying to find my voice and performance style. 🙌🏻
yeah, same here!
Its so weird because these have been my ringtones for about 2 years or whatever when I bought them and hearing them makes me want to get up for work.
Haha 👊🏼
Your vibe is so wholesome☺ Been watching this channel for almost a year when I first got the model:cycles. Since then I've acquired more gear but I hear jams like this and it inspires me to focus on using just the cycles. Big ups broh from ATL
never forget - not only a great teacher, also a supercreative fabulous musician in front of us!

Doing very well thank you very much.
I love cycles and I love your way.
Cheers...
So relatable, sitting alone in your room at the desk and bounce to pushing some buttons. love it!
Fantastic Cuckoo. Loved that. Thanks for being you! 🌼
I’m a fan of everything you create - but this one was particularly out of this world!
Brilliant! Amazing! Awesome! Everything about this video rocks....
Great performance and fun. Cycles is a ton of fun. I’ve had mine for a few days. Your samples tutorial helped me grasp the sequencer of cycles. Excellent work.

Reality is right
If the music is tight!
Thanks mate that was a treat!
Love the joy in how you perform…
❤️ Thank you!
Songlad to see you back around ! Tres heureux que tu te portes bien et que tu nous balances encore toute la musique et la délicatesse que tu peux faire !
A very sweet bit of Console Norge playing there. Excellent vibe! :)
Cuckoo you always bring a smile to my dial. Thank you for sharing your energy and your skill. Wohooo
Cuckoo: Thanks for your electronickery trickery humility sincerity and humanity! Keep well.
SO playful and FUN. Incredible how much you have tweaked this box compared to the stock presets.
haha this sounds rad. weird, fun and kooky. cycles is a great box for these bizarre sounds. folks hate on it but personally i love the FM weirdness.
Hey Cuckoo... I enjoy Your alltime fresh attitude... just a child playing and enjoying himself aaaand infecting other artists and people like me.... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS POSITIVE ENERGY!!!
Lively and groovy vibes as always Cuckoo. Love the retro game vibes in this jam! Excellent start on the weekend! Have a nice one! ☀️
Nice, welcome back Cuckoo! It's great to hear how no matter which piece of hear you use it just sounds like...you! Looking forward to seeing the studio evolve.
Great :) there is a lot of work behind. Not as easy as it looks like.
Cuckoo, I just love the whimsy and playfulness of your music. So wonderfully creative! Is there music you listen to to inspire you? Maybe a favorite cd?
You might enjoy Simon Pyke A.K.A. Freeform's music th-cam.com/video/H04H9NmH9ZU/w-d-xo.html
Love it!! just moved house and was wondering what synth to get out first... decision made... Model:Cycles it is.
Hi Cuckoo nice to see you…
What a fun and inspiring performance! Thanks for creating it, and showing off what this cool little synth can do.
This is awesome Cuckoo!
This is great Cuckoo , like really fun . Neat little device . Thanks .
Nice to see you again Cuckoo! Great Jam! Love to see some Cuckoo animation to go with this!
Thanks! Yeah, this white wall is screaming for animation and visuals! I might paint it though.
Cuckoo is by far one of the most friendly and original producers/influencers these days. Keep it up, buddy. Fist bump, everything.
A perfomance video!! Nice!!! Kinda tired of reviews and walk through and I really want artists like you to actually share performances.

@@truecuckoo I honestly believe you would be less hindered and have a more solid base of foundation with youtube as well. Cheers mate as you have helped me understand my KORG wavestate better ✌🇨🇦👍 much love!!
You know what I like of this video? The fact thar Cuckoo is having so much fun. It’s pure joy. Enjoyable !! The song is good too 😀😀
Cuckoo you're just so gosh darn wonderful and what a fun performance!
awesome as usual! love the cycles and YOU!
Absolutely Awesome! Very Inspiring indeed!!!!
Composition sounds great. The mix also sounds vibrant, clear and loud. Great stuff man!
This is the most I've seen Cuckoo get down while jamming!
Sir, you are a refreshing sight and sound. Love your positivity and love for the world. Keep on being an inspiration.
GREAT to have you back on the channel! Best of wishes. Awesome groove, as always.
This is awesome man. Love my cycles. I think maybe the best product they’ve released yet for dollar/fun ratio
you always bring the creative force whenever i watch your vids - thanks for the inspo
Bravo,,funky track dude,,great groove,,lovin it..
just got mine the other day :) loving it so far
I love this tune. It’s this very tune that sold me on buying this unit.
Cool cool Jeremy. I love this little machine.
Glad to see you back Cuckoo, miss your videos so much. I just got the Novation Peak so i was watching your old tutorial on that ,would love you to make a new one with the updated FW, your style is unique and very jolly always makes me smile. Keep up the Fantastic Soundgasms !!!!
Thanks Chris! ❤️
Ah yeah Cuckoo! Looking and sounding great in the new space! 🤘🍻 Getting by with some laughs from the kids and wife and making music in the wee hours between each day. 😁
Great to see you back looking bright and upbeat! And what amazing sounds and arrangement you get out of the cycles!
Are you always this happy? I wish I would be this chilled half the time. I guess that is why I like watching your videos :)
Just imagine if you can release a full cd sounding just like this whould be totally epic. A cd full of joyfullness.
I'm good mate! Was good seeing you really enjoying that one! Welcome back 👍🍻
Every aspect of this was enjoyable. You have such a unique sound and style that makes me want to head bop right there with you. Awesome job, seriously a pleasure to listen to.
Good to have Cuckoo back. What a legend.
Unmistakably Cuckoo! Such a. Distinctive joyful musical voice you have!

Oooo, listening on decent headphones here, that synths got a lovely bottom end. May just consider one of these
Absolute MOOD. Love this so much! Keep it up Cuckoo!!
Love that! Great piece of music as always 😊Your "First Try" Video on the Model:Cycles was such a cool jam also - would be great to hear that on a track of yours 👍👍
Brilliant! Nothing but good vibes here my friend
