KORG Volca sample, bass, beats, keys: TECHNO #3

- Here it is: The Korg Volca techno #3 :). Everything is pure Volca sound (beside the Korg Monotron wich add some delay to the Volca Bass). No post processing. Recorded with an Apogee Duet audio interface.
The Volca sample is used for some additional drums (factory preset samples), the bass sound (one shot sampled from the Volca Bass) and the short "beep" sound (one shot sampled from the Volca Keys).
Hope you like it.
The tiny mixer is a diy passive mixer. very simple and cheap to build if you know how to solder. Perfect for the volcas.

I think this video sold more Volcas than any influencer.
Got me started.
Same here.
I always loved electronic music but only had a passing interest in producing anything until I discovered the Volcas with this video.
They looked fairly inexpensive and intuitive, and I’m super glad that is true!
I first came here 3 years ago and I keep coming back. I hope he will come back some day.
Same here!
got my first korg volca sample after watching this
3 epic tracks and he's just gone. Goddamn, we'd love to have you back mate.
guys a fucking legend lmao
Unbelievably based
I have been admiring this composition for 5 years now, but I still get excited as if it was the first time I heard it. You win man ♦️
Exactly my thoughts❤
So am I!
Same here, shame OP seems to be MIA
100% agreed!
I never stop to listen this live since 3years now... Its the more mistic live un YT because the guys stop to create... No news about him!
It's saturday night during the lockdown 2020 and I'm here with the beers.. Such a tune.
Aaaaand weed!
Aaand .... ? 🤔😬
Same! Only no beers, just water.
It's a early Wednesday morning for me - cheers mate 🍻
Paris 3:23AM cheers
Simply the most polished volca live out there... can’t imagine the time spent to prepare, adjust and practice this single song...
Man I keep coming back to this video. Every time I find something else cool I like about it. The ping-pong delay at the beginning. The late entry of the kick on the Beats. The gradual detuning of one of the VCOs on the Bass. The breakdown using the keys and some reverb. And all done by hand on those tiny touch ribbons and knobs. It’s masterful. What an inspiration.
what whould his mother say when he drinks everything !
Yeah this was pretty tight. Im sure he did some preparations but i wonder how much of this was just improvisation on the fly and how much it was something he practised before he made this. Never the less slapped really hard and required skill. I think this video itself is a good proof that volcas are more than toys than some people deem them to be. Sure, they do lack what alot of others and more expensive synths do, but in the right hands they are very good. Im glad korg decided to make these things.
NGL I was on the edge of my seat when they were freestyling with the ribbon... those things are brutal for live jamming on
@@wardrich Facts.
Here we are, coming back to this video again, and again, and again!
I still come back to this video every now and then
I just found it again. I was about to comment that it was fucking excellent when I saw that I had already said it was fucking excellent a year ago!
Same
Brilliant. 53 years old and sat bobbing my head and tapping my feet to this. Music crosses all boundaries. Thanks for putting this up here.
35, doing the same now )
no you can't listen. music is for the young. *rolls eyes e.e*
Wish you luck, man! Stay safe!
1 million views. I wonder how many Volcas this vid has made people buy. KORG you owe this guy so much.
Epic. Just Epic sounds.
This is by far the best Volca jam on the internet! I bought 4 Volcas because of this tune.
Geoffrey Higham check out mine🥰🎹
I want one would ya trade for something? ;) I'd love to use this live alongside the microkorg an all time fav. A launchpad and a mk2 ur set lol
Are u implying that u are superised that musicians don't always play keys drums guitar or sing? Lol jk but it's a common view of the older generation that if you aren't playing a traditional instrument with vox its not real music, truth me told production of electronic music especially at (higher levels of difficulty) is not any different than motzart writing a symphony, he did the work of putting it together the way we do these days in modern studios and conducting was basically hitting play, changing only slightly where today someone like me can play guitar sing, play drums, keys and FULLY produce and master the whole album n the funny thing is the instrumentation that people sometimes consider real music, compared to a song written in protools or ableton. The instrumentation is the easiest part usually. Becoming a GOOD dj Emcee or Producer these things take more skill, time, and comprehensive understanding of everything from theory to modern applications and new technologies mixed with old analog like this for the warmest sounds. No disrespect just funny some people still feel (electronic music Is less "real" ) than say rock n roll, I beg to argue without robert moog and tech like voice boxes even electric guitars were probably looked at no differently. BUT if u like that check out some of the greats like, squarepusher with his mix of jazz break beats and electronic production that for the time is light-years ahead of itself. These days we have buttons to do this kind of staggering MASHEDUP style traditionally made note by note hit by hit much like the great composers once did.. music is changing soo quickly but our cultural understanding and acceptance seem to take a bit longer.. all my best, to see whats cutting edge today check out someone like beardyman all LIVE looping to create amazing sets! All my best
i bought 1 and was disappointed of the tiny sound
James Crock, don’t use the internal speaker.
Once every so often I rewatch these videos. They’re a MasterClass. I just noticed how he brings the bassline in at 1:45 by opening up the Sample’s low shelf filter. This guy did a lot of little tricks like that to be able to bring in/out elements with one hand only. These videos are a product of a heck of a lot of learning, planning, and practice.
Can you explain how this is done? I have a Volca Sample and don't know what and how he is doing this...
@@Cimoe I re-watched the first bit of the video, so here is what I see happening with the Sample. Follow along with your eyes and ears... At 0:02 he starts up a program that plays the sonar ping sound. At 0:05 he fiddles with the reverb mix knob to add... well, reverb to the ping. At 1:05 he unmutes one of the parts that has a high hat sound. At 1:12 he unmutes part slot 2, which is a finger snap sound. At 1:18 he unmutes part slot 4, which is a bass. At 1:45, he does two things -- he tweaks the bass analog isolator knob with his left hand to boost the bass sound, but then immediately launches a chained pattern (song) with his right hand -- to introduce a chord progression by having the ping sound turn into a melody and the bassline become more complex. So, what were the tricks we saw? 1. Write a program with everything, then save it with just about every instrument muted. Then unmute various instruments as you play. 2. Instead of starting a song with all effects going, introduce effects later on (like the reverb and bass boost). 3. Introduce a new section of your song by programming new sequences using the same instruments and launch them on the fly. I recommend watching and listening closely through the song. Watch his hands. Listen to what changes with each tweak or press. Look at your Volca to see exactly what buttons or knobs are being manipulated. Figure out what was programmed beforehand. Do it with all the Volcas. Can you work out the sequence of how he played each Volca? How was each Volca set up before the performance? Can you recreate parts of the performance on your Volca? The cool thing is that other than the Sample, you can at least roughly recreate the sounds yourself with some experimentation. It's like when a student goes to a museum to copy a famous painting -- look closely, figure out how it was done bit by bit, then recreate on your canvas. Good luck!
The volcá sample seems to be the solution for several issues in volcá music such a 16 beat pattern sequencer for real interesting bass lines
These are the most bangin' eight and a half minutes on all of TH-cam.
I read a review, today, that said... and I quote... "Never use anything Korg Volca related. Korg Volca sucks." And then I watched your video and realized that, whoever wrote that review had NO idea how to use what they had, because obviously, they do not suck. If I were wearing a hat, right now, I would be tipping it in your general direction.
volca FM is super great with a ring modulator
But doing it live with a group of machines is way cooler!
A true artist is never limited by what tools they have, only by what they imagine can be done with the tools that they do have. People with shit attitudes should never use anything korg volca related haha
Knowledge and understanding helps too. When I got my FM, I was initially un-impressed with it and it sat unused for months. Now with a understanding of synthesis (and FM in particular) I am having a great time using it.
also for have experiment in many way lots of vst and hardware the sound of a synth analogic is way better than any vst. When you use a volca keys with a space echo is just better than any ableton reverb or massive preset than you'll get. The problem of these machine IMO is that there is no MIDI out, only mini jack out!! and also they are very small and you need very tiny finger to use the keyboard. the best way to put them in set up is to send midi note from keyboard and to have midi signal splitter.
WOW... I really hope KORG givesy you some money for that.. best Ad they can have ;)
you're so right. Just decided to purchase !
Pay up KORG
Lol srs tho
Yeah this is bad ass!
I am looking into prices now lol
i can't even believe my ears, this is a masterpiece and it was done live with no post processing...Spuckfunkel you're a goddamn legend.....
I wish this guy put amazon affiliate links cuz he absolutely deserves every last cent of every sale that happened because of this unreal performance.
The only relevant machine here is the brain of the one that composed the song. Amazing and beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
A quick search on Google shows he made tiny wings, Andreas Illiger is his name. What a track. I also bought 3 volcas because of this and a korg monotron. Love them
Heard it once and never saved it, Thank the lord i managed to find it again. Been looking for months. Fantastic. One comment said he was 53 and sat there bobing his head to it. Well i am 57 and thinks its one of the best things i have ever heard.
Another one you might like is Rubberneckers by Christophe Beck. Love that too
proof that the best gear is not required for amazing music
This is probably my most watched video on TH-cam, primarily because it autoplays almost every other video I watch and I always let it play all the way through.
Come back Spuckfunkel :(
Noise Alchemist same here🥰 and because of he‘s not back yet I made a video - please check it out 🥰🙌🏻
This music has accompanied me for over a year. Through good as well as bad times.
COME BACK SPUCKFUNKEL!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I balt all hiz shiz, and sold it on ebay
Dude, you should release this as a track. This one is solid AF. Best wishes from Chicago.
Very nice tune, did you release this track also? @Spuckfunkel
buuuuu weep da nana da da
he lives with his mother ! and driks of her ihratagde
What? Haha wack comments! Dude your a star! 🤘
solid AF indeed.... holy shite!... chapeau!!!
I barely can imagine how much fun it makes twiddling and achieving this, when it is already so gratifying to watch.
3 videos and the guy’s gone... like tears in the rain.
Strateggo listen: Tears in rain - Plasmotek! ;)
We NEED to find out who he is.
He has probably seen some C beams.
Luke Pearson yes
and 4k subscribers with 3 video's...impressive ;-)
I've been back here more times than I can count. This song is in my heart now. Thank you.
2 years after still one of the best Volca performance of TH-cam, listened it countless times. Congrat
Ahhh I keep coming back to this and it rocks my world every time.
This is really good! What impressed me the most was that the song keeps it's "flow" from start to end without any wild rides into insanity.!
This track has been on my playlist for around a year and I still love it. Great work!
Hands down the best jam of its type on youtube. Raw and smooth, this is pure techno. Volcas have never sounded quite this good!
Best Volca Jam I've come across thus far.
Когда смотришь подобные видео, кажется что это очень легко и просто. В действительности это не так, и это отличный показатель мастерства .
Man, I've watched a ton of Volca videos the last few months, getting to learn these things, looking for inspiration, and have to say, your track here just keeps on worming into my ears. Great melody, tension, build... it's just a damn good song. Shows you don't need the fanciest gear with the sweetest tricks to make beautiful arrangements that hook. Shows you don't need expensive gear to have a good sounding mix. Thanks for putting this out there!
Dude, you never cease to amaze...very inspirational. I want to buy Volcas just because of your videos.
I've never seen anything like this before. Techno masterpiece out of an unreal live jam. That "extra" analog kick popping in just after 3:15 is amazing just like everything else on this track.
fucking cool. congrats dude youre really good
Good choice of avatar, comrade!🚩🏴✊
Eh? I'm an anarcho syndicalist and I consider all socialists to be my comrades. Stalinists and Maoists aren't socialists, of course.
This is actually the best volca video I’ve seen and I’ve seen a LOT. Of course techno and ambient are two different worlds, but from those using volca sample, this is by far the best.
Man, where are you? Come back!
Inspiring and genius talent. The way it builds on the off beat so well that it takes some time for the ear to synch with the actual downbeat of the measure even after the kick drums starts to mark it.The sound is great. It reminds me Royksopp. I love this. Well done.
I discover Royksopp with your comment! Thank you!
We all remember the day we discovered Royksopp
@@connormoore3671 true
I always come back to this track!
Thank you for the inspiration. ♥️🎹♥️
Not sure HOW I missed this all these years BUT WOW!!! Excellent jam with these little beauties.
Wonderful. I've been considering bigger drum machines, like the Brutes, but this really shows the power of such a little cool device. Thanks Spuckfunkel. This vid still holds up 3 years later!
This is extremely impressive and enjoyable. Takes real skill to pull this out of a few volcas. Wow.
Literally the first volca video i've seen where they actually sound like proper instruments. Well done! Sounds great.
Professor Dictabeat schau mal bei mir vorbei wär cool wenns dir gefällt 🎛🎛🙌🏻
Some orgasmic analogue sounds of This synchronisation between 4 analogue units which manupulates different characters of sound waves on 16 individual keys(lit at the bottom ) of each unit to blend and create this sense of rhythm and flow
Once a day, right before sleeping I watch this video, contemplating the perfection of it and just to get taken by the song. Love it, very good job.
Man literally every little hair on my body is standing to attention listening to your track. That is quite a hard thing to do but thank you, it's the best feeling in the world for me. Sublime stuff here mate well done.
Soo fresh sounding LOVELY!
Every time, every year. This is is Volca bible. Absolute best. Who is here from the year when this was posted :-) I am and I am always stunned ...
I can't put into words how beautiful I find what you do!
Best wishes!
Dude, this was incredible. how beautiful
i can listen to this on repeat forever!
Every time you listen it just gets better and better. Awesome and not a computer in sight.
This track never gets old. It's so good ❤
Such a timeless track! I wish you shared more of your talent with us!
This tune is absolutely awesome
This jam is absolutely amazing!
Best volca Loop ever!!!
I've been hearing it over and over for years..😜🤩🙌🏼
now I want to buy all of them. damn son this is what music making is all about
Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous music.
By far one of my favorite mixes.
I keep coming back to these videos. great soundtrack
listening to this for the 100th time! class!
FYI- this has hit my regular playlist- jamming to it while I work.
Been looking at these for a while, you just sold it for me. Krog totally owes you, even just in props. nice tunes man
Wow, that's an impressive demo! By far the best Volca jam! Love it
This video made me enter the synth hole
and we all keep coming back... WHO IS SPUCKFUNKEL???
2 years.... Still listening.... Want more!
Love this! Watched it a while back and just watched it again - twice! Brilliant stuff :-)
This is really, really impressive. Loving all the little harmonies.
Surprisingly good! You should do the demos for Korg from now on... Very uplifting track!!
This is a really great composition! Superb! Bravo!
And yesterday I finally bought K.V.Keys :)
Found this yesterday and had to listen to this again because it was stuck in my head. Really nice mood!
I really love this. I find myself coming back and sharing with friends.
what the hell happened here .. i thought I knew the Volca sound by now, but no i did not - awesome track!
This is soo good!
It’s 2024 and this still slaps. I’m still inspired by this.
Simply the best Volca techno music ever made :-)
amazing tune, this video alone has convinced me to buy volcas. Spuckfunkel needs to put more stuff out there!
Those small gears, Volca's, this revival on Analog gear is a great news ! More than 20 years in the desert for analog synths. Guy around 50 now was too yound in the early 80s to get one...
Then, analog was replace by digital synth D50, DX7... Yes, those was good synth, a little bit less expensive, but this gave alos a lot of synth without any savor.
I was always asking me : Why they did not recreate Prophet, Jupiter.... Finally, it took more than 20 years ! Again we had discover analog synth !
Synths are my passion ! I've the Volcas too. Those gears, for the price, are incredible. But do not imagine you can play like this in few days. Creating music on them can be compex, not alway intuitive... But at the end, this sounding like.... real root analog !
Best use of these machines I’ve seen. Very nicely done
Du bist der Hammer...Ich hab mir dein Video jetzt 10 mal in 24 std angeschaut!WIR BRAUCHEN MEHR!!!!
Holy shit man, amazing - come back to us!!
theorist yeah pleaseeee
Greetings from N'To, Worakls and Kiko. ;)
Best Volca video I have ever seen! Props!
Royksopp forever... This is right in line with them. Awesome job! Love it!
Finally! We had to wait wayyy too long! And it's Ace again ;)
this made me buy 4 volcas a year ago :D Still not even close to his legend
Just wowwww!!!!! Cant stop replaying this beautiful performance! More please!!
Man, I love this! Volca Bass and Keys are King!
finally figured out how he got the 4 bar bass line: it's actually sampled into the sample. the bass is just playing drone / hi bits. you can tell when he brings in the bass line - watch the isolator on the sample
Damn, well spotted! I was trying to figure that out
As in its a 4 bar sample ?
@@orenJF I don't think so, I think it's one shot samples in a 4 bar pattern on the sample - that one can do chaining iirc
Spunkfunkel come back with new jams or tracks!! Looks like you already got a fan base. GREAT WORK. #notallheroesplaydigital
Here once again to see, the sound comes from the people, equipment is secondary. Really inspiring
I watch a lot of videos on synths and samplers and this is a good example of how one can push these units to achieve great results. I love the use of the Monotron for its filter. I use mine for the same thing.
This is awesome. Do you play out ever? Where can we see you!?
This is astounding, do you have a bandcamp/soundcloud page where i might find and follow your music?
seconded
I'm in too
me too, this stuff is solid gold
:(
@@DiEdGaSt :(
Just bought my first volca today, always wanted to after watching this video months ago ! Amazing track
This is mental! Totally cool. Doing all that stuff on the fly! Great. Don't stop.
