    A live, semi-improvised performance, all on hardware, and inspired by a new synth table for performances, plus a few new pieces of gear. I had been humming a weird rhythm in my head for days and eventually realized it was in 11/4 time, and captured it here. I also was missing the sound of analogue voices, so I broke out some of my favourite analogue synths and drums to comprise the song. But of course, a good analogue voice only gets better with some (admittedly digital) effects, in my opinion, so I added in a few favourites (Empress Reverb, Polymoon) and a few new ones (the Typhon's on-board effects, Strymon NightSky). Ultimately it's hard to make such pleasing synths sound bad.
    Arturia DrumBrute Impact - Drums, drum sequencing
    Squarp Pyramid - All melodic sequencing
    Dreadbox Abyss + Strymon Ola + Empress Reverb - Pads
    Dreadbox Typhon - Melody
    Moog Minitaur + Meris Polymoon - Bass
    Moog Matriarch + Strymon NightSky - Two arpeggios
    Kenton MIDI Thru - MIDI through!
    Written in a 48-hour period and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

    I was super impressed by this live performance. Most of the time I hear live synth performances, they sound like jams, interesting ideas, or additive loops. But your stuff sounds like an actual musical piece. I love it. Hats off to you.

    If you wouldn't have written that the piece was in 11/4, I probably never would have noticed (consciously). I tend to like strange time signatures, but they're even better and more fun when they're not totally in your face.
    Also, thanks for inspiring me not to buy more gear but to continue to delve deeper into the gear I have.

    I'm a bass player. Just found your page.
    This is great stuff. I keep vintage Fender Basses to try and fill the bottom because they are dirty, imperfect, grizzly.
    Always been jealous of Moog. Especially the minitaur. It fills the low bass space completely and effortlessly.
    Thank you for sharing this. 👍👍❤️

    Wow.
    As a big piano nerd, I’ve been trying to get into synths and have had a hard time. On TH-cam, synths feel more like knob-turning sonic exploration than actual music. Rarely is there a MUSICIAN playing a synth. This is what I’ve been wanting to find.

  • @tavi3938
    @tavi3938 ปีที่แล้ว

    the thing i love about your videos is a lot of the time you have a full arrangement of sounds in a mix. with the drumbrute in particular it's frustrating to try to get examples of how it sounds as a part of a larger mix when most of the videos out there jamming with it just have 2 or 1 instruments and sometimes people are just jamming on a lone drum machine. it's so nice to actually hear how it sounds as a part of a full mix in this video.

      Had a Grandmother, sold it to buy a Matriarch while it was on sale. Will never regret that decision. matriarch delay is killer. I use it more often than the delay on my magneto. Don’t really miss the grandmother verb at all and 4-note paraphony is extremely beautiful bc you can get different tones out of each not in a chord. Thought it would be a limiting factor not having full polyphony, but I can get really unique chords by having each paraphonic voice use different waveforms. Way more features to go into as well.

    This is incredible. Alright. I’ve had a sub phatty for a while but besides that have had little experience with synths. Would the matriarch be a good next synth? Ive fallen down the rabbit hole of synth videos and want to learn more to blend it with my piano playing and learn more synthesis in general. Would love any recommendations. Synthesis seems very intimidating but man is it exciting!

    • @JayHosking
      @JayHosking  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Synthesis is incredible. The Matriarch will give you a little of many worlds (modular, polyphony, mono synth, a nice keybed), so it's a great choice. There are lots of options out there, though, and your specific criteria will be different from everybody else. Best of luck!
