✶ PERFORMANCE NOTES ✶
Arcology
October 31, 2017
Arcosanti, AZ
I had the fortune of visiting Arcosanti for a few days and meeting some wonderful souls while learning about architect Paolo Soleri's vision of the city as an organism for the transformation of the individual and evolution of the species. It's an inspiring place, and while there, I took the opportunity to create a mandala piece ( • Soleri Windbells | OP-... ) and this modular piece shot on top of The Vaults at sunset.

✶ PATCH NOTES ✶
This patch is my current performance patch, sans effects. After completing the mandala piece I had less than an hour before sunset and the light was already fading. So I packed up, grabbed my synth and camera gear and headed to the highest point at Arcosanti-the roof of The Vaults. To save time I decided to go Eurorack-only, no external effects. Compositionally, I had zero prep. I just turned the system on, quickly tuned, and went for it.

#eurorack #ambient #arcosanti - เพลง
It was this very piece that inspired me to sell all of my rack-mount synths a few months ago and dive into modular instead. Prior to hearing this, all I ever seemed to hear coming out of modular systems was sequenced bleeps and drum beats, but Arcology demonstrates that it is entirely possible to make beautiful ambient music on a modular system. This piece is absolutely gorgeous - full of warmth and wonder as it gently evolves and entwines - great work, Lightbath!
If you haven't already, check out Ian Boddy
@@it194j Thanx: I'd not heard of Ian Boddy before - I checked out some of his music and I'm impressed!
whats wrong about bleeps and drumbeats?
Well said. Well said.
So? How goes the Modular journey Moon?
😃
On my last day of life I want to be surrounded by racks of modules and speaker stacks with a view like this. And lots of cats too.
If only I could have coerced the two community cats up on to the roof to hang out during this piece. If I had had more time, I might have tried.
Don't wait until the last day. 🙂
God, make mine bunnies. The rest is a go. - Rick
I prefer grandchildren over cats... but rest the same
You spelled dogs wrong, but yeah, totally agree :)
Felt this calming me. Beautiful
Keep coming back to this patch just amazing.
More of this, definitely more of this, could listen to this for several hours easily
This was great! Always look forward to your vids.
This clears my mind! Thank you 🙏
I have listened to this so many times, it always inspires me to take my case up on the patio to noodle around. Its performances like this that inspire me. It's timeless! Thank you Lightbath!
Oh man, that was amazing, what a great place to perform beautiful ambient! Nice to see you ever changing your modules but keeping the same lightbath sound
Beautiful sounds. I enjoyed this ambient piece very much as I relaxed at home and let my mind wander across my projects and goals
Well done man ! Beautiful in every possible way.
This is a sweet clear ambient soundscape. I love the economy of this patch and how it is played.
Totally a dozer! Got the sounds so smooth, rich textures evolving over time into deep space!
this is wonderful, such an inspiration
endlessly beautiful sound
So relaxing. Love this!
Love it again! One Lightbath a day keeps the doctor away 😀
This is probably the greatest ambient composition I have heard.
You are definitely one of most musical modular artists I have heard. Very inspiring!
Nicely done! Excellent piece. Inspirational.
Man there’s so many cool places in AZ I never knew about until now. Awesome show
Lovely composition! 👍 😍 And a wonderful video shot! 😍😍
This is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your art with us
Easily one of the most uplifting and beautiful modular drone tracks out there. Absolutely inspired, what a gorgeous track.
It's a great film because it looks so good in that setting, making it epic. And sounds good too.
Very nice tanks for sharing.
This is a beautiful piece, thank you
Inspiring. I love that this was impromptu. Great piece.
Back for my umpteenth listen of this track, and it never gets old. It's as hypnotic as it is transportive, and to me it's just so, so positive a piece of music. You really made something special. Thanks.
🌟
Sweet jesus this is a gorgeous sound.
Beautiful. Doesn't matter what you surround yourself with (cats, grandchildren, bunnies) as long as it is loved ones.
You have touched my soul with this music.
this was a recommended video that came on automatically while I wasn't paying attention - suddenly right at the end I realized I was really relaxed, so thank you for that! lovely sounds :)
🙌
@lightbath this among the few other ambient modular synth artists is what’s inspiring me to start getting into modular myself. I always felt so bland picking up drum sticks, or a bass because... I couldn’t capture the surreal beauty of the flowing world around me. I’m beyond excited to have finally found a way to create the larger than life sounds I’ve longed for. Thank you for creating music that brings me sheer bliss. Thank you for having unintentionally showing me what it is I’ve been looking for. I hope you have many more a blissful morning like the one in this video.
i love it!!!! thanks for sharing
Beautiful sounds😌
Super beautiful, thank you!
Very nice Sir! Thank You for sharing!
All y bleeding heart was needing tonight.
Thank you, dear.
This sounds make the world “Peace”.
Thank You.
My other Arcosanti piece:
Soleri Windbells - th-cam.com/video/rFeHbZPXUd4/w-d-xo.html
so beautiful!
amazing work and flow, one of the best ambiant composer for me actually =)
Beautiful arrangement.
Lightbath beautiful patch! nice composicion with it
This is too perfect
This is just amazing
So great to finally meet you at NAMM 2018 this year. Looking forward to more synth meetups and hangouts for sure. Incredible modular synth work
Thank you, POB! Great to finally meet you as well ~
Beautiful put me into a trance.
This made my day
love it man
Loving what happens with Just friends at around 6:00, great stuff. Improv is what it's all about!
Really beautiful
Fantastic! Just great.
Thanks for the cool flowing sounds, and reminding me of Arcosanti. I visited it when I was a young teen in the 70's, and am glad it's still there. I have Paolo Solari's book sitting on the bookshelf where I can see the futuristic illustration on the cover almost every day: "Arcology: The City in the Image of Man." Thanks man.
oh beautiful!
So beautiful
can't stop listening
So cool seeing Arcosanti on one of your videos; also, the song made my day, thank you for sharing!
One of my favorite places
so cool - with this view😎
Nicely done!
Love this, nice work out at the arcology.
Beautiful
this is very cool and meditative
Just discovered your channel, amazing! This piece is wonderful!
Wow ... that's fantastic !!!I really like it !!!
a SUPER like for you !!!
Perfect way to spend a Saturday morning: listening to Eurorack sounds from Europe. 😊
Excellent, 'Subbed' & entirely jealous of that phenomenal Modular Synthesizer. Well done.
Gave this a dedicated listen today and wanted to comment a thank you for this and it really is quite good for the mind. I haven't tried much like this with my eurorack at all, but this gives me some inspiration to keep the drum machines off and give it a try.
Thanks. Much love to drum machines, but also much love to the space between ✨
Quite beautiful.
Lovely piece - and glad the see the top of the Vaults being put to good use. ;) Sunsets from that vantage point never get old!
It’s so great. One of the best spots at Arcosanti... but there are so many of them.
very nice very : ) love your system and your vibe.. inspiring...
beautiful !
Monitoring the decaying plutonium. Incredible stuff brother. I'm inspired to start writing music again.
Gorgeous.
Superb! Beautiful :)
Such an epic performance
Beautiful and restful👍
So good!👌
I like the way a car passes away at 3:00, leaving a dusty trail in the air.
It fits very well with the pace of the musical composition.
It's fascinating.
Thank you.
Oh wow! I had never noticed that! Thanks.
took me ages to find that, but you are right.
I tried but didn't have the patience... where is it?
it’s like trying to see wind on dunes; don’t look for the car, look for the trail of dust
Too beautiful
wow, amazing !
Love this
Amazing!
This reminds me a bit of Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois and Michael Brook's Hybrid album. It has that textural warmth to it.
Love it! 😁
this is so pretty
Beautiful ... Greetings !!!!
Superb! 👍👍👍
If you ever have time to upload some albums to apple music, they'd be essentially on repeat during my workday. Great stuff.
Lovely!
Normally ambient music bored my ADHD brain to tears, but the beginning was so beautiful I decided to push through it, and guess what? It never got boring... And it never stopped being utterly, breathtakingly gorgeous. Thank you ♥️
🌟🌟🌟
Beautiful:)
Love this,..thank you!..................sweet..
beautiful m8
Whoa! This has over 300 thousand views! 😯 Congratulations 🥳
Amazing.
Oh my god. I'm now considering getting into Modular based on this.
Fucking right! Before it seemed so complicated and weird but now it’s like 0.0 I’m in love
Reminds me of Eno's ambient phase from the 70s (with Fripp..Wind on water etc).
Gets very quiet that far out in space.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Well done sir.
I *love* ambient synths.
Superb.
