Empress ZOIA Euroburo: Featuring 5,000 Miles Of Astounding Landscapes

- Watch my midlife crisis flourish in turning surreal, dangerous, and remote places into generative melodic synthesizer patches. Yes, the music you hear in these places is all the Euroburo output into a portable recorder! (unless you see other modules being used in the shot)
The Euroburo is now available to order from Empress or your favorite music gear dealer: empresseffects...

Camera work: Benn Jordan and Michaela Bailey of Akimbo Studios.
Special thanks: Perfect Circuit, U.S. National Park Service, Blackmagic Design, Dehancer, Kate Hilger, and the total of 7 people we encountered who also wore a mask.

This is by far one of the most underrated channels in the entire music TH-cam space, absolutely beautiful video all around and worth every penny of a Patreon pledge
could not agree more. Benn is a white knight for synth nerds.
You make me feel so discomforted by the people who are getting a ton of attention in music right now, when you’re out here making an awesome (and for once I mean that word in it’s truest sense) generative patch in Death Valley for a TH-cam video. You deliver more than could ever be expected very regularly. I’m glad to support your patreon, it’s such a simple thing that doesn’t affect me much but has one of the most satisfactory results of all my small investments.
North America is a such a beautiful place. The diversity of all the different biomes and landscapes always amazes me.
This is so easy to forget when most of the news and media from there are about big city events or politics. Hope I can visit the continent some day!
@Paul Mina Storm How is calling a country a beautiful place nationalistic? Dude wasn't even comparing it to others or anything. The world has many beautiful places, including the USA.
This is way cool as a road movie creating its own soundtrack like a travelog - and I probably will wind up sooner or later with a ZOIA Euroburo, but just got a MOD Dwarf from Moddesign in Berlin, which is a similar thing I am still getting started with... Great video, Benn!
Inspirational and evocative. Bravo. Made me not only want a zoia, but to just create some music.
I also LOVE Perfect Circuit and I am planning a trip there myself soon.
I love that they sold off all their bringer crap and do not sell one item from them. I wish others would have the same values.
I just got a zoia for my guitar pedal board, it's truly incredible, now I know I want to throw myself into the world of synthesis, with much inspiration from you and your wealth of knowledge, thankyou friend 🙂
Is this the greatest advertisement ever?
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you so much!
Simply incredible.
Incredible work! The Zoia is the best musical purchase I've made in years.
This is awesome ben! Currently building out an ambulance conversion for off grid synth adventures. It would be cool to bump into you out there. Looking forward to more content like this.
What’s your battery setup? :)
Beautiful
This and, all your travel videos, deserve a long cut.
Even as someone who has little interest in Eurorack stuff, this film is both riveting and delightful
OF COURSE U WERE A STORM SPOTTER!!
U are the man
i am without words. it’s all so wonderful
You make some of the most interesting and enjoyable videos Benn!
Simply the best video/music I’ve watched on YT to date. Thanks so much. I’m British but have set foot in 14 states in America over the years. Only the pandemic stopped me from returning (I used to combine road trips with flying light aircraft ) - Awesome !
What a footage....impressive...Thank you...just thank you.
I like Benn
The photography is outstanding. Wow.
The desert breaths new life in so many ways
fantastic work Benn. Such a creative piece from the music to the adventure!
The musical portion at Salvation Mountain is absolutely gorgeous. Brings so much extra life to an already unique location!
Idk how this isn’t the biggest channel that talks about gear, you’re next level man. Thank you so much for these videos.
This was an incredible video, the camera work and music were both absolutely stunning. Huge props to you and everyone involved for pulling off something so ambitious. However, I think if you are planning to turn this into a series, I would want the subsequent videos to be longer. 15 minutes just doesn't feel like enough time to fully take in the landscapes and allow the generative patches to breathe
Wow that's a video and a half, better than most TV let alone youtube content. Came watch some gear porn and ended up getting Attenboroughed.
Gorgeous American landscapes accompanied by a beautiful score of masterful patches. Couldn't be better than this. Wicked film work / edit!
Videos like this make me glad I found your channel
incredible film. New level dude.
I love rewatching this video. It is a great encouragement to get out of your regular spaces to keep music fresh. Thank you.
Beautiful, just beautiful! 😊
I grew up around White Sands and Fort Bliss. Awesome!
Might I suggest a similar concept but using people instead of landscapes? For example, travel the country and learn people’s life stories and use those as inspiration for modular pieces? Kind of like a humans of New York but with modular
This is a great idea!
This feels like the spiritual successor of a book I swear you released but I can't find any reference of or find it on my shelves - While You Were Flying? Either way, for you to create music to fit these landscapes, it's so beautifully matched, so serene. Fantastic job as always 👌🏻
This Video should have a Million Views
Yes...you made it good.
Gorgeous music, gorgeous scenes. Just, like, really great.
i already pre ordered it and count the seconds. i really wanted the deskttop version sooooö bad but tried very hard to wait for this one. everything empress touches, turns into gold. they are about to hit my number one effect manutaturer and beat strymon and eventide on place 2 and 3. i really love my magneto and my h9 but i really cant wait to get the euroburo!!! amazing video as always Ben! much love and support from munich/germany
Fabulous work. Inspirational.
Beautiful video. All of it. And I'm so proud to be part of the ZOIA family of musicians, with my original pedal. ❤
Very Nice😁 I have enjoyed your patches you have put into these.
Really itching to get mine back.
Spotted in the wild!! Super excited to get one
This is how you show that gear makes music makes personal expression. Inspiring. Thanks.
Congratulations on the video! What a astonishing piece of audiovisual content.
What amaze me is the fact that the music doesn't take over the images. Perfect fit. If ever you tought about coming in québec, I have plenty of room at home. And I have a bottle of bourbon waiting!
Great video. I always enjoy your work. Thanks so much for what you do.
This is a really beautiful video. Would love to visit some of these places some day. Thank you for sharing this.
Absolutely amazing!
Those drum sounds around the 8 minute mark are so good! I’ve made hats on Zoia but never with that kind of crisp quality
Beautiful landscapes and soundscapes, Benn. Loved it.
Long-time watcher, first-time commenter - thoroughly enjoyable sonic and visual experience, love the drone work and photography (much like the swamp vid) and keep up the great work Benn.
Absolutely wonderful journey, story, video and music. I do not agree this channel is underrated. It just needs a bigger world.
I love your music and your general content. I have been itching for the Euroburo for a long time…had to buy last night after seeing your videos.
You are constantly making the best videos I have seen. This is one of my favorite ones. incredible music. Thanks for the great content. Stay safe.
Your music is always so amazing
I love you... ...for this. :)
Beautiful sounds, beautiful country.
You are a fascinating person.
CINEMATIC LANDSCAPES ARE PERFECT
Those shots in the white desert... absolutely breathtaking!
Cool travel music video. Nice photography/video work. Hope you continue this line of artistic expression. Suits you well.
Beautiful and thoughtful as always, @Benn! Thanks to one of my absolute top-tubers ;-)
Both the music and the videography are absolutely stunning. Taking small music devices (ok, toys) like my ZOIA out into the world with me is one of my most favorite things to do so I really enjoyed this. And now that I have seen this I no longer want a second ZOIA pedal. I want a ZOIA Euroburo instead. Oh, the possibilities . . .
So many beautiful shots! Seriously I was captivated. The one @6:20 really made me notice, watched it twice to make sure I could give equal time to the art and the message. I don't know thing 1 about modular music. I just really like watching you get excited about it and making interesting sounds. The images in this one though, y'all knocked it out of the park. It was beautiful. Please do more of this when you can. Beautiful visuals, over interesting music, over thoughtful observations of the art, the world, and the self. ::Chef's kiss::
Nice to have someone along to take the pics, great work as always.
You did good, Benn. This was so enjoyable! Thank you for being authentic with your creativity. Loved it.
This the euroburo looks brilliant. Great video and an inspiring journey. Imo this is the best youtube channel out there.
So many witty jokes but I'm left with nothing but the sense of astonishment, respect, inspiration, and GAS.
It was not a video, but a journey to a different place (maybe dimension even) and I loved every second of it
Video too short : I really really love when you make a journey with your camera, I would love watching hours of this kind of musical trip... 👌🏼🤗
Wow great video
That was incredible! The shots and patches were top notch.
Ben you've outdone yourself with this! I've been a big fan of your channel for ages and this might be your best video :)
This video nourishes my soul. Thank you.
loved every second of it. As always amazing content. Thanks to you and special thanks to Michaela.
Probably one of the most stunning b-rolls I've ever seen. Excellent video Benn! Great sounds and I really enjoyed listening to the little backstories of each!
I love this video so much. I feel like it could be an hour long and would have remained captivating the entire time. Hoping you do more of this and if you want some help filming anywhere near Las Vegas, NV let me know!!
this video was amazing. I especially loved the generative patch you made when you were in death valley. I've never been there myself but I think the photography and shots of the desert were more than enough to convey how desolate it was there. Beautiful
Beautiful episode!
Amazing scenery complemented by great tunes. Benn, your videos definitely deserve better encoding, especially this kind of videos.
Drone shots on point
Great travel/music vlog!
Absolutely magical work, Benn. Bravo!
Always amazed by your visuals, sounds and insights. Amazing video.
Beautiful music and images! This is next level content.
Epic video Benn! Ever considered releasing some of that photography/videography as bonuses for your Patrons? Could make for some killer desktop wallpapers or something
Great video!
Idk if you know, but you can actually camp at white sands. It is weirdly, spookily calm at night.
Also you can go to ground zero twice a year. It is something else standing in the exact spot the first nuclear bomb was detonated
Amazing trip and music, Benn! ❤️
Awesome
Really great seeing all these locations, lovely shots, wicked concept. It’s really cool how there’s all these tactile portable music making options these days that make stuff like this possible. I have a Euroburo on order :) Nice work Benn and Michaela!
man, this is inspiring!
This is so good - I can't wait for my Euroburo to arrive! Now I want to travel again. 🎶🎶🎶
Absolutely fantastic! 👏
Wow awesome!
13:12 best part
Great job! I really like the idea of music and travel. Something I will be trying in near future hopefully!
Fantastic stuff.
Great video and great patches
Awesome video. You just invented the roadtrip module presentation genre.
We need more of these :)
Zoia is the module I need.
