Making a song using only the Moog Grandmother synth

- I decided to do a challenge where I make a song using only one synth (Moog Grandmother in this case). I have to use it for drums, basses, leads, pads, etc. I added some vocals at the end, but that's the only thing that isn't from the Grandmother. Stay tuned til the end to hear the final song. #onesynthchallenge

lovely sounds and great idea for a really nice setup/workflow between an analog monosynth and daw
Please tell me you're gonna make a video on the grandmother eventually. I would die of happiness.
Hello Andrew!
thanks dude! means a lot coming from you.
@@granteubanks I don't think Andrew owns a Grandmother.. yet!
@@granteubanks YESSS
the vocals should've been from your real grandmother
jakob 🤣
Damn that's funny!!
lmao
or from a grandmother from another drummer
"I don't want to tell you what to do, young man!"
Just received my Grandmother. Words can't properly express how I feel. This synth is a MONSTER!!
My first Moog ever.
Congratulations!!
I wanted to have one to but it's takes more $1.013,41 cents to deliver where I live
Evolverman Thank you!
I feel you...
LB music sucks man :( save up hard if you want it bad enough!
All the sounds except the voice of your grandmother's grandson
😂
I almost forgot to leave a comment. This video deserves an applause. I love this! This was a very good demonstration of what you can get out of just one synth!
Thanks!
You're right, it's amazing what you can get out of 1 synth. I opened mine up and found 3 slices of pepperoni, a scratched 'kings of leon' cd and a hamster that went missing 3 years ago.
Zibbe Zabba 😂
Oh my God those sounds are so beautiful. Definitely buying right now
Wow, that is really impressive! The percussion sounds and then the vocal, never would've thought that'd come out of that synth.
Man this synth takes you to a whole different world!!! And imagine all possibilities you could make this synth do!
Number 1 synth jam of 2018!!!
No lie this video was probably the biggesr factor for me deciding to save and buy a Grandmother rather than a minilogue as my first hardware synth.
Would love to see a video going into greater depth on how you made some of the patches in this video. Particularly the 1st pad and 1st lead patches.
Or honestly any grandmother videos. You’re a huge inspiration keep it up.
This was really cool to watch. I appreciate you sharing your process. Looks fun! Inspires me to do the same with my synths.
thanks!
FANTASTIC tune-LOVE it!! The sounds of the grandmother are truly wonderful, and you've put together something really unique and special here. Well done! Truly a showcase for the Moog Grandmother
I really appreciated the way you showed the evolution of your creative process.
2:45 My heart stopped there for a second when I heard dembow and thought you were gonna go with it xD
Im amazed by the percussive sounds you came up with. I also got the grandmother and use it on every track now . The bass lines are so fat . And the endless mid and higher ranged sounds are what ive always been after but didn't know what machine could produce it. The grandmother is awesome. All moogs are but this one imparticurly dope sounding
This was so awesome man! Thanks for describing what you were doing for each sound and whatnot
Sounds like "lick my flappy foldy folds" from Rick and Morty.
Great video of a Great synth. Keep coming back to the Grandmother. Fantastic synth.
That is a very nice song, with very nice sounds. And sweet moves at the end! :)
heh thx
Great job! :) I also love making full tracks using just one of my synths. It's always a fun challenge and often helps me learn that particular synth even better in the process.
this sounds like if radiohead was formed in the 2010’s I love it
This is freakin awesome! The grandmother sounds dope, also these melodies is very beautiful too, i love it.
Nice Nice Nice.....I love that vintage sound, it reminds of something Kraftwerk or the Art Of Noise would record back in the day, and the video of Grandma dancing, made the song that much more special! Really artistic bro!
This taught me that a proper drum machine is needed 😁
True😂😂👌
And all them bends are uglyyy 😂
The whole point is using only one synth for all the parts. Dems are de rules.
@@zibbezabba2491 one synth everyone knows the rules
Or just proper knowledge on how to synthesize drums.. this guy is just half assing it
really loving these videos man, absolutely incredible work and they help me out a tonnn
I love your style, man! These videos are really cool and inspirational to watch. 🌲
Incredibly creative! Also very impressive how much you know about sound design.
really nice. vocals are really good. that's a good practice as I find myself playing a lot of leads that I sometimes think are just where a rap verse should go.
A slam dunk case of elder abuse. But sacrifices must be made. Bravo.
Inspiring video. Very full sound from grandmother
Bloody awesome!! Very inspiring :) I have had my eye on this synth for a while, totally sold. Hopefully I can be as creative as yourself. Thanks for sharing ;)
Still rewatching this sometimes.
This video are forced me to buy the grandmother.
That Grand mother has some juicy character. Nice.
damn doo
you went full blown Thom Yorke on this one
love the lush sounds and melodies. could definitely see this one as a track on Eraser
This is unique! The trouble with synths, is that is easy to make unusable/silly sounds, as showcased in many demonstrations. Thank you for your creativity, knowledge and and inspiring process that you so kindly shared :-)
you could have processed the vocals threw the grandmother by using the instrument input. a little touch from the filter and envelope would have been lovely! awesome demo though, i really like the way moog is maintaining analog gear alive threw digital mainframe ! subscribed
WHATEVER YOU DID AT 3:50 WAS GORGEOUS! LIKE COME ON DUDE A1
Love the dreamy and lush sounds
Really great work ! I absolutely loved it 💃🏼
Though, how do you get that “vintage electric piano” sound at 05:07 ? It sounds so perfect
I love your videos, I bought my Moog Grandmother today I'm can't wait to do this challenge.
Your videos are the best. Thanks for sharing so much of your process with us. This particular video is as informative as it is inspiring.
thanks man, appreciate that.
Cool stuff mate! The track is actually not my style - but somehow, i really like it because it has such a nice vibe to it. Really well done! Thumbs up!
thanks man! yeah it's not really my style either tbh lol, but somehow it's what came out here. Sometimes the sounds I use drive me towards specific styles.
Actually, i've been thinking bout doing the same for a while now. I have to use the Peak though. The Grandmother was too expensive for my taste :-) Keep going mate. I like these Videos. The Angles from your Cameras are close to perfect and i really like your Color Grading! Have to dive deeper into this in the future as well :-) All the best from Germany
Fantastically inspirational! Sorry people are shitting on your voice, this song is absolutely funky. Sounds great. Helped me a lot.
Hey man! It would be awesome to see you just do a video on synth maintenance- how you keep the Grandmother clean, recalibrating things, all that kinda stuff. Can barely find any synth maintenance vids out there. Would be MUCH appreciated. Peace! ✌🏻
In this short video I've learned so many stuff , especially about making drums on my xd... thank you so much!
Wow that's awesome. Would be nice to have the patches of those sounds. It would help to learn. You're a master. Thank you
Awesome video dawg! Cool workflow!
Really love your work! Thanks for putting so much heart into everything you do!
Another great video and track! Also I actually think the vocals are pretty cool. Definitely different but in a good way.
Make a video like this for every synth you've got! The tutorial aspect of it makes it that much better but the on the fly composition is so cool to see!
hehe I'll try. I might do one with SH-101 next.
@@onceuponasynth sweet! Looking forward to it man. I started my synth journey with
the deepmind 12 a few months ago and owe a lot of what I've learned to you. Keep creating
The grandmother is so godly that it can make a shitty song idea sound good
7:02 - 7:05 This is perfect for a netflix series intro, that suspension in only three seconds!
Grandmother ...what a classy act!
Setup is so clean
The closest thing I have to a classic vintage keyboard is a casio CZ1000. I might give it a go myself. I love seeing how the song turns out in the end. Very interesting concept.
"Tracking my Grandma for a day! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT WILL SHOCK YOU! #NOTCLICKBAIT"
Great and lovely sounds. I'm hoping to make some songs like yours on my Monologue soon. Working hard and getting better every day.
I could honestly hear the instrumental be used in a sci-fi film. Very spacey. Might have to add the moog grandmother to the list
great experience you have! When I bought my Bass Station 2 this is first thing what I did
beautiful synth sound
Great Video! Thanks.
Awesome stuff 🎹😎🎹 I've sat down to make drum kits with my microbrute a few times and it can get so annoying early on when you just cant figure out how to get the sound you want...but the finished kit is always so satisfying to use
Love your vids. Lots of humility and talents. Keep going. And don’t forget to make your app available on Mac !!!
This song= me chilling on a Sunday afternoon in my couch with no pants and just staring at the TVs black screen
I'm basic! would you be willing to explain the reasoning behind notes and chords choices when you play the melody, pads, and bass? Just purchased a grandmother, BTW! Thanks
Great way to way your instrument, to learn synthesis and get the most out of it. Very cool challenge. Restrictions breed Creativity. Make the most with what you got and make it sing.
Lol I thought the thumb nail said “tackling grandma”😂
maybe an idea for my next video 🤔
Very cool.
Yo, you are one very inspirational dude. Cool as blue, cool as.
Awesome! You’re fierce! Loved it!
Amazing man! That brass bass sound 💨🙏
Your intro was all I needed to subscribe
I use all my synths and drum machines in a DAW-based environment and I was wondering whether the Moog would be worth it in that situation.
You showed me that is definitely is worth it. Thanks for this video!
The GM is cool cause it has USB MIDI so it doubles as a MIDI controller too. But using hardware synths is definitely more time consuming. I spent a lot of time making new tracks, routing MIDI and tracking audio (which I edited out of the video). I work much faster with soft synths. But hardware synths are nice to add occasional layers here and there.
This video makes me wonder why everyone wants to go dawless.
Here is a nice “DAWless” jam... th-cam.com/video/61O0cTwRrtY/w-d-xo.html
Depends on how you like to compose and what. A pop song gets done in a DAW and a groove/jam is easy DAWless.
Hard agree. DAWless is something you do when you want to figure out how to use all those toys you GAS for. DAWs, on the other hand, are something you use when you want to make a song :)
Because staring at the PC screen hurts your eyes
Same reason people argue about Digital vs. Analogue.
( cause they don't get it )
David Yeah staring a busy screen is usually not fun, and even worse - moving sliders and turning knobs with a mouse is a real pain in the ass. I have done both DAW-based and DAW-less electronic music - soundcloud.com/valdiskrebs I choose my method depending on what I am trying to do.
could you do a more detailed vid on creating drums with the grand mother? Really love the sounds, especially the metallic ones!
Anyone have any tips on making a bass tone similar to this on something along the lines of a Korg Monologue? Stellar sounds in this video.
I love the grand mothers dancing hahaha
cool song!
Wtf were those vocals?
Blackened 😂
you clearly havent heard Thom Yorke noob
They were "amazing"
They were awesome. Go back to your radio pop music bro
J. Cruise he literally has a death metal pfp. Gojira
This is insanely good!
Great ! You could make a complete EP like Todd Terje did witht the ARP2600
I bet you a wet kipper Todd used various other bits for the drums/percussion on that EP
hsoj hsquh still impressive either way.
That synth at 5:06 gave me chills
Cool video, i do this from time to time e with my BSII and 8 multitrack. I do the drums using the built-in sequencer for each part.
No wayy.. you're Citizen Park? I remember coming across your channel years ago when you were mainly just showing off gear and sounds. You're channel has developed indefinitely!
BTW Elena and Billy, love that tune
Yeah that's me lol! Thanks man, yeah a couple of year ago I decided to change the name of the channel and start taking it more seriously.
So sick and informing! I personally could do without the vox but great job!
You Sir, are amazing!!!
And why was I not subscribed to your channel!? I'm sure I've seen your vids before. Great content man, keep it up!
heh thanks man! welcome aboard, thanks for the sub!
I like where it started at first.
had to favourite this video for later ref
Great song and very fun to watch! Can you maybe share the settings you used for bass and leads? Some of those sounds are excellent.
I've made most of my tracks with a single mono synth, never underestimate the power of mono
Genious fantastic love the video. Wow what a synth
Pretty Cool :-) Very Creative
gotta get one of these
Layering is the secret!
Unique! Great job, 👍🏼
I love your content. I wish you were my older brother or cool uncle :,(
lol, I can be your virtual uncle. that kinda sounds weird..
@@onceuponasynth could have wrote a verse about a creepy uncle 'fiddle about...fiddle about' oh wait... it's already been done.
He's your grandmother
Omg, it's magic!
This is beautiful
your channel is amazing
Can you share the settings for that great lead patch that’s at about 5:04 thru 5:14? Great song!
I want this synth so hard!
All you need are a thousand bucks and a knowing girlfriend 😀
iggyfuntime666 me to so hard
Same!
It’s not that expensive for what it is. Start saving and hope you can get it soon :-)
Modular Landing paying off other synths I will have it next year probab
