I just wanted to come back here nearly 2 years later to say: this is the video that started it all. Before this video, I'd only admired synthesizer music, and had only just begun exploring VSTs. This video opened me up to the weird and mysterious (and expensive 🤯) world of hardware synths, sequencing, dawless (and dawful) jamming etc. Many thanks, and abundant gratitude to Mr Jay Hosking for all of his videos that help to demystify these devices. I am on a new life path, thanks in part to this video. I shall now go support his patreon. I hope you will do the same. Thanks for indulging me.
@@TheBrettEnglish Your comment prompted me to get on Patreon and support Jay and LoopOp for good measure. The two of them combine to bring such a deeper understanding to electronic music to those of us who have been tangentially around synths but not active creators. I’m finding the NDLR an interesting music theory teaching tool because it really encourages experimentation in so many different modes and chord progressions. The motifs also promote voice leading which is one of those golden rules of music composition. There are few of those, but when changing chords it’s always better to repeat their common tones whenever possible is like one less variable to deal with. I ramble, but wanted to let you know the impact of thoughtful comments.
Imagine having this setup deep in a forest at a cabin, no civilization sound or any distraction, just music... life goals :) this is really lovely and calming.
This is the best desktop syth jam I've ever seen! Criminally low subscribers, only a matter of time before that number explodes! Keep doing what you're doing, much love, respect and support for Australia 🦘❤
This is a really nice jam. The text explaining what’s going in is nice too as it makes it easier to follow along and understand what everything is doing.
Ever since the Magic Fly & especially the Chase, add a bit of Oxygene....then pause....onto Pilotpriest, MAVS & Royksopp & M83....and now to find JHosKing.....it just gets better & better! Fantastic channel Jay add me as a lifelong fan.
I found out about the NDLR last night. Thanks to you I'm ordering today. Great device, stunning performance Jay! Your text descriptions help make the video superb.
This piece is the piece i play for my friends , to impress them with what MY synthesizers CAN sound like - (if i had youre brain - which i dont, but like a seasoned stagemagician, i keep that info to myself) No matter how many times i hear this piece - it have a DEEP ,filmic mental impact ,-
Jay Hosking, you have a remarkable gift my internet friend. I stumbled upon your video today because I'm excited about buying my first synthesizer the MOoG grandmother in about two month, and I just want to say my friend, that you exemplify the meaning of what it means to be a true synth artist. I hope to one day have as much gear as you and translate my soul into the electric as you do. Something great will come out of this for you if it already hasn't. I'll continue to enjoy your music man. Peace Brother.
Now I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. Absolutely fantastic. Really, very very good ... I'm excited to see how the NDLR sounds with my Andromeda A6 ... Greetings from Cologne Germany
This is incredible. If there's ever a sequencer that's tailor made for ambient, the NDLR is it. And you used it exactly how it was made to be used. Simply inspiring!
I love modular synths. One of my prized possessions is a vintage 3 panel Serge system. Most of the time when I hear these compositions they seem like noise to me. This was real music. Thank you for sharing From Vegas
Wonderful piece for these wintertimes. Solid line-up of "friends" in this arrangement. Looking *very* much forward to seeing all of these jamsessions assorted into something complete on bandcamp, so I can throw some "gratitude" your way. These pieces really are something else :)
Another great track Jay, thank you! My NDLR has arrived and I’ve been steadily introducing it to some friends to play with, it is incredible. You end up in some totally awesome places just following your ear and not thinking too hard on the technicalities of what you’re doing. Please keep the annotation in your vids, and the key, as getting a nice chord progression is such an amazing thing. Cheers!
This is awesome! Chords and synths sounds fantastic. I found, that somehow the chord progression did not want to end in the end, i just felt it could keep going forever. Nice work, ordered mine ;)
That's intense. I can only imagine the experience of being the one pressing the buttons! I would love to hear this performed in the church of St Sulpice in Paris which has amazing acoustics with ability to handle massive low end hence Widor's Toccata composed on the monster organ there.
Ooh....my sweet God in Heaven, you did it again.....Flabbergasted by sheer beauty....Torn and Ripped by the elegance and class......this oceanic feeling is so awsome and evotive.....you are Great !
I am listening your performances all this day. YOU ARE MASTER OF SYNTH ... MIND BLOWING, AMAZING, GREAT, AWESOME and IT'S A DREAM. - - - I would like to know this once. - - - GOOD LUCK
This is stunning and gorgeous. For me your music evokes this incredible feel of Carpenter at his best, Tangerine Dream and also Disasterpeace who did the soundtrack for the video game FEZ and the film It Follows. If you’re ever interested I would relish the opportunity to collaborate on something that has these lush slow moving pads floating above some fast moving polyrhythms. Cheers man! This made my day, all of these synths are great on their own, but you’ve got them working together like members of a band. Liked and subscribed.
Words fall short to describe how much space this creates in my head ... So elegantly put together! Would make a wonderfull intro to a full album/story!
This performance is what made me order the NDLR, shows everything what the NDLR is made for and is capable to do in my opinion. Very well choosen sounds!!
I've been considering a NDLR for a while now, and this seals the deal. What an ingenious little beast it is. The tones you got here are breath-taking! I immediately looked up the DDRM, only to be sad about not being able to immediately afford one. Anyway - lovely track.
Really cool sounding. Not so sure about the focusing of the camera ;-) but it's the music that is important and that is the winner in my book. Incredible demonstration of the NDLR and a poly synth jam. Top notch.
Beautiful. This will be perfect for the meteor shower tonight My NDLR was supposed to arrive Tuesday, bit it overshot me and went all the way to Chicago. The next 24 hours may go a little slower than usual, thank you for easing the pain with this beautiful beautiful music.

Thank you, Brett. This is amazing to read.
Did you get an NDLR and use it to drive compositions?
@@EshockT no. My setup is smaller and slower. Inspired, nevertheless.

Bon Iver but with synths
Just need electricity :-)
I definitely am trying to arrange something like that this winter...
I would probably die, as I would forget to get food and eat.
Wanna get high?
4 years after the making this gem is presented to me by the TH-cam Gods, they should have known better far sooner.
my god, everything about this is beautiful.
Keep coming back to this. It is a perfect example of how expressive synthesizers can be even when sequenced. Absolutely stunning performance
Incidentally, I also just ordered a Polymoon and a DDRM MK2, a pair inspired by this video lol. Also ordered a K-Board Pro 4 for MPE goodness
You are an inspiration Jay.
I keep your music close to my heart.
Thanks.
This is the best desktop syth jam I've ever seen! Criminally low subscribers, only a matter of time before that number explodes! Keep doing what you're doing, much love, respect and support for Australia 🦘❤
Those progressions are just beautiful.
The layering of the different voices too.
I'll be listening to this again.
Thankyou.
This is a really nice jam. The text explaining what’s going in is nice too as it makes it easier to follow along and understand what everything is doing.
This song put me down for a 5 hour nap at the start of vacation. Fantastic.
Very good. The music and the noodler.

I literally just went and ordered a NDLR after just 3 minutes of this video. I have never been so insta sold on a piece of gear in my life.
Dream setup 😎 beautiful piece of music 😍
I found out about the NDLR last night. Thanks to you I'm ordering today. Great device, stunning performance Jay! Your text descriptions help make the video superb.
Lovely collection of synths! And gorgeous sound - a continually shifting palette of analogue tones!
This is the video that made me put in my order for a NDLR ! :)
Cosmic ! Majestic ! ....Seriously

this is raising sooo many goosebumps I don't know if i can keep listening
Je-sus.....listened to this before, but the moment the Peak really puts it's back into it with the drone at 2:06...delicious!
Man, when the Novation Peak enters song 💜 Overall a lovely song and a delightful symbiosis of created patches and FX.
This sounds heavenly... Words don't do it justice
Man, when the Peak comes in! What a sound!
Now I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes.
Absolutely fantastic. Really, very very good ...
I'm excited to see how the NDLR sounds with my Andromeda A6 ...
Greetings from Cologne Germany
How beautiful!
my equal favourite music channels appreciating each other.
Two genuis together !!!
Looper, this man will be talked of, and his music played, in a time and space far far from here ❤️😭
I really like how your head is in focus. Makes it look cinematic.
This made me laugh out loud! 🤣 Thank you 😊
Jesus a Deckards and OB6. It's like a Grandfather speaking beautiful truths to his Grandson.
This is incredible. If there's ever a sequencer that's tailor made for ambient, the NDLR is it. And you used it exactly how it was made to be used. Simply inspiring!
This is effing gorgeous.
Baroque organ composers would totally find themselves at home in this compositional concept
I'm pretty sure Baroque organ composers would probably freak out and think they'd been adbucted by aliens if they were exposed to this setup
They ARE!
@@urmumsbaps This track is EPIC Sci fi film music!
Well the church organ was the first synthesizer if you think about it🤔
Super geniale Musik zum Fliegen in die Entlosigkeit 😊🎉
keep on doing just exactly what your doing here, could honestly listen all day and night. Thank you.
Beautiful NDLR jam! And an epic set of voices, tuned to perfection. Nice work.
This is the most beautiful synth music I've ever heard, magnificent!
Beautiful stuff! Heavy old school Tangerine Dream vibes
Found this yesterday - loved it. Had to come back today for more - this is seriously good stuff, well done!
Deckard's Dream... what a synth. Great arrangement and tones =)
Wow.... just beautiful music...and explained at the same time... ti gives me hope to be able to do something like this as well... thank you Jay!
I love modular synths. One of my prized possessions is a vintage 3 panel Serge system.
Most of the time when I hear these compositions they seem like noise to me.
This was real music.
Thank you for sharing
From Vegas
hard agree, I love a good wall of noise but it seems like there just isn't enough melodic stuff on youtube
Beautifully done Jay! Also, jealous of your Deckard's Dream and OB-6.
Fantastic. Pure creativity. You make music, not annoying noises. Congrat.
This is great. I like you're script saying what you are doing. Peace yall. Never stop dancing.
Wonderful piece for these wintertimes. Solid line-up of "friends" in this arrangement. Looking *very* much forward to seeing all of these jamsessions assorted into something complete on bandcamp, so I can throw some "gratitude" your way. These pieces really are something else :)
Got an ambient and a drummy album up on bandcamp now, from earlier this year. Please check them out if you haven't already!
Reminds me a little of tangerine dream in the 1980s, very nice underwater sunlight was my favorite
almost speechless, deeply moved
Another great track Jay, thank you! My NDLR has arrived and I’ve been steadily introducing it to some friends to play with, it is incredible.

Its so beauteful accords, VIVA NDLR and VIVA Jay Hosking ! I love your Stuff bro, and you inspired me for new Ideas... and I thank you for this
this feels like an amalgamation of blade runner and interstellar. i love it
Back here listening to this again and loving the lush sounds, how the music builds and releases. A wonderful collection skilfully played.
Hey Jay,
I keep coming back to this one. Thanks mate. Ace.
This is so amazing
I love your music. Sometimes I play it while doing my meditation practice. It's just wonderful.
from other planet man. I love this jam. Inspiring & blessed! thanks for sharing. Peace. B.
I got a wake up call from my electric company. Heart racing. Could've slept some more.
Listening to this helped me calm down. Thanks for the music!
I keep coming back to this one... really great sound design! Greetings from Brussels.
Impressive jam and synth collection 😮
I think you combined all my dream Synths that I will never have. 😭
I come back to this video so often. Really inspiring. Great work! 😎🎧🎶🎵👍🏼
Majestic Melancholy : Magnificent , Mate ! Mmmm . . . Floating between Plankton and Nebulae , between Quarks and Galactic Clusters . . . Total Zen . . . YESssss
I want that Noodler thing : never been any good at chords and now i know why that never bothered me
Damn, you are so good at this...
You should get this chap on Jamie.
@@davecjd Yes, I'd like to, going to be playing this on Sunday, it will be the 3rd of his I've palyed...Love what he does.
@@GEOSynths I agree, very impressive. That Deckards Dream is wonderful.
he really is super good.
After listening to your steam today I thought I try this guy out .....nice
This is the ideal soundtrack for masking the sound of my sobs as I study for the 304 final. Thank you for the additional resources, Jay 🙃
WORLDS COLLIDE
This is awesome! Chords and synths sounds fantastic. I found, that somehow the chord progression did not want to end in the end, i just felt it could keep going forever. Nice work, ordered mine ;)
What a beautiful song ...Thanxs !!!
That's intense. I can only imagine the experience of being the one pressing the buttons! I would love to hear this performed in the church of St Sulpice in Paris which has amazing acoustics with ability to handle massive low end hence Widor's Toccata composed on the monster organ there.

wow quelle ambiance et les accords sont incroyables ^* Merci
This gave me chills, I'm so glad I found out about you!
Very cool! The explanations were much appreciated too!
Thank you for this inspirational performance and detailing your work flow as well!
I am listening your performances all this day. YOU ARE MASTER OF SYNTH ... MIND BLOWING, AMAZING, GREAT, AWESOME and IT'S A DREAM. - - - I would like to know this once. - - - GOOD LUCK
Very well done. Very good idea the written explanation to make tek understable and same time no talk and all good music !
NDLR rocks. Has some intriguing rhythmic possibilities too when paired with Model Samples.
Love it...actually has emotion behind it...that's something I often find lacking
AMAZING!
Really nice Jay. I think your annotations really add to the production. Looking forward to your next outing...
Hi. I found this and I really apreciate the explanation that u make on the performance, and I love it, keep going bro
Man.....great job! Please continue, hope to see more power, more so elegant sound maded by you.....it"s so good! THX

Wow what a beautiful set up.
So beautiful
My new favorite song. This is absolutely beautiful.
This performance is what made me order the NDLR, shows everything what the NDLR is made for and is capable to do in my opinion. Very well choosen sounds!!
i'm adding this to my "music for concentrating on work" playlist -- cheers
Yes I had to come back to this and play it through a couple of times. It's good
I've been considering a NDLR for a while now, and this seals the deal. What an ingenious little beast it is. The tones you got here are breath-taking! I immediately looked up the DDRM, only to be sad about not being able to immediately afford one. Anyway - lovely track.
This is an awesome performance. Thank you for sharing.
Como la vida, girando en círculos, resonando ... gracias Jay
Love this one. Really nice! Been looking at the NDLR and this jam makes it hard to resist incorporating one into my setup.
Really cool sounding. Not so sure about the focusing of the camera ;-) but it's the music that is important and that is the winner in my book. Incredible demonstration of the NDLR and a poly synth jam. Top notch.
Stunning Video of your Work! Thank you so much! :)
Great video, great sound, and particularly great that you took the time to add notes! Thanks for the hard work you put into this.
so cool ... my ndlr is in the mail, been watching non-stop videos like this as I wait for it to arrive ....
Wow. This is so mesmerising
What a sound generation spaceship console. Inspiring, sequencer with real time tweaks.... lovely.
very beautiful sound , incredible sequencer but you use it greatly and the result is awesome !!! thanks for this great performance
Beautiful. This will be perfect for the meteor shower tonight
My NDLR was supposed to arrive Tuesday, bit it overshot me and went all the way to Chicago.
The next 24 hours may go a little slower than usual, thank you for easing the pain with this beautiful beautiful music.
Bothand Nether trust me you will enjoy it. Had mine for months now and still haven’t scratched the surface.
