I am indeed. I know my videos may make it look like I’m just some guy in a bedroom, but nothing could be further from the truth! The Tassie locals more or less forced me onto a stage a few years ago, and I’m forever grateful for that! Since my TH-cam channel has blown up, the amount of additional help and support they’ve been offering has been very humbling! I love Tasmania, and everyone who lives here! Awesome people :)
@@robthebloke is Tassie an "Australia's island state" as Google suggests, or do you put some other meaning in it? Sorry for the possible ignorance of mine =) Greetings from Ukraine, mate!🤝
You know what I love about this? Typically when you see people playing analog synth rigs, it's in some dark, dank warehhouse. But to see Rob just jamming, in a field, enjoying the fuck out of himself, nobody else around, it's so refreshing. Great set mate!
There were actually about 150 people there for this one. This set was about midday on the Sunday, after the sound system had been cranking constantly since Friday arvo. The dance floor directly in front of me had a fairly decent turn out, but to be honest, most people were looking a little worse for wear, including myself to be honest! If I’d been in the audience, I’d have been pretty annoyed if someone had filmed me cutting shapes on a dance floor after 2 nights with no sleep. That’s why the camera was pointing towards the toilets :) The cloud9 crew have however invited me back for another set soon, but this time we’ll film on a Friday, when everyone feels fresh, when everyone knows cameras are rolling, and we’ll be able to show you how stunning this part of the world truly looks :)
This performance is a testament to the beauty of modular synthesis. It beautifully demonstrates that a well-composed masterpiece doesn't require the glitz and glamour of a packed stadium or the intense energy of a super-hyped audience to be appreciated. The skill and artistry on display here are truly remarkable, offering an incredible auditory experience in the most unassuming of settings. That said, you should be on the big stage as this performance would put any stadium on fire. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve spent all day watching your videos back to back after discovering the channel this morning. There’s something special about this set for me (teared up a few times during it to be honest). New comfort video unlocked. Thank you for sharing your incredible music!
@@darrinsiberia Condensation mainly and the elements, humify and such are main things people don't bring rigs outside. Clearly C9 NEEDS to show the biz : D worth the risk
@@mastersunfishwith a car mainly ;) I have literally had someone spill a pint of beer on this rig before. Had to pull the modules out, wash them in the creek, dry them in front of a fire, and I was back on stage an hour later :) Analog synths are indestructible, thankfully :) There’s a reason I’m playing underneath a gazebo - without it the sunshine would overpower the lights on my rig. And also it helps if it rains. Which it did do, about 5 mins after this set finished :)
@@TheSyntheticForestnah, it’s tassie mate. It will rain, and it will not be a polite shower. This rig is fairly indestructible. It’s actually the cases that are quite delicate. The modules inside will not die, despite how much abuse I throw their way ;)
This video popped in my suggestions. All the mess of wires in the preview got me intrigued. The sounds did not disappoint! I don't always subscribe to channels, but when I do, it's to amazing creatives like this!
Hi my Friend... WOW !!! Now I'm an "older" engineer ( from old school of Alchemea College in the 90's)...looking your video ..the first thing i've seen is YOUR PASSION to create a musical event ( start view from your alchemist's vision of the sound )...GREAT ....🥍♥🤩😜
I'm a musician myself, I've played guitar and bass guitar for around 17 years now. This kind of equipment and style of music is literal magic to me... I have no idea what the hell is even going on, and it's such a beautiful thing. Makes me feel like a kid again. I love that I've stumbled across this channel. Also, I have a ton of fun pulling out my bass guitar and playing along to your videos.
Dude you are absolutely nailing it with the uploads. Beautiful to see you are surrounded by sweet and loving people. Truly wishing you the best, cheers.
I just tuned in to your vids , very nice ! great use of sequencers /envelopes/ filters I really loved the one you did on Dec 10, the beauty of mistakes is happy accidents , Keep on doing fine work , great to listen to.
Wow, that is truly amazing. Passion, skills, vibe, creativity, everything to the point. What a contrast to all the overproduced stuff. You can tell that you live the music for real. I am very happy to have found the channel and will stay. Greetings from Germany
thank you so much for sharing this with all of us. Glad I get to witness your journey. thank you for being such an inspiration to me personally. Have a blessed day my man.
Amazing work. It takes a daring soul to use such a setup where many things can go wrong live. Combining that with passion and talent, makes it so good. Thanks for inspiring me to have another go at modular :)
once i had 2 909 groovebox and played with it all night and day with 3 people totally lost in the sound, with this stuff i def will be lost in to sounds for weeks DEEP RESPECT MAN I LOVE IT
I’ve been listening this since it came out and every since I come, rediscover the magnificence of this video, the place, the beautiful modular synths and the sounds are just so futuristic and oniric. Just wanted to say you made one of my favorite video on TH-cam 🙏
Just stumbled upon your channel and it’s such a breath of fresh air. Nothing better looking than some mountains and a badass lookin rig with some great tunes. Love from miami! Instant fan 🫶

@@ganiniii Me too. Born in '70. I remember talking to my friends about it in 3rd grade, my parents played it a lot on long road trips. Still a great album.

Happy New Year my friend. Been having an awful time lately and I’m coming out of it now. And I remembered this beautiful set and it snapped me out of my self made misery and me cry with happiness . Very rarely life drags me down. This was my portal back. Thank you 🙏 my friend x
great sets/jams! found you channel a few weeks ago, once I got the algorithm trained and removed the junk videos so it showed me more relevant content.
Easy does it there tiger. Just one cat video can throw your algorithm for a loop that is difficult to recover from. Kudos to everyone who trained well enough to get this recommend.
You seem to be surrounded by such beautiful people, it brought me such joy seeing all the hugs and love you got while performing

WOW. ♥ So beautiful synth tones. ♥
Nothing beats a great musician on a modular that knows how to arrange a performance like this… clearly it’s done by “feel” and it sounded great!
Deep complex and expensive and real nature good mix

Add an amazing VJ an huge lit screen to stand behind him on stage shit would be tight.
Snapped me out of my depression, lifted my spirits….. thanks 🙏
You may be amazed at the abilies of deep, resonant frequencies within meditatively ambient music to lift one's spirits.

A true blessing in the form of gorgeous analogue synth magic! You and your work exude an infectious happiness and peace!! Keep up the magic! 🤯🙏🏽

Glad YT recommended this, thanks for the wizardry that makes this contraption produce these amazing sounds that just pick you up and send you off

Brilliant and natural. Rob, you’re an amazing instrumentalist and composer, and I continue to learn from you.
Yes, yes..... ❤ I love to see you flowing, dancing and enjoying your creation. Beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. Make me sooo happy and dance.

Thanks! I’m not planning to stop anytime soon ;)
nice set. thank you for sharing
Just bought my first synth, couple of days ago .. cant wait to play it! Cool video!

brings good memory to my youth where Jean Michel Jarre produced such great synthesiser music.

Nothing heard like this since JMJ and depeche mode...
