Bastl 1983 & Synthstrom Deluge

I'm jamming with a semi random setup using the Bastl 1983 and the Synthstrom Deluge.
I explain how I have everything connected and then go on to jam for a bit.
If you're only here for the music got to around 4:00

Are you using both the MIDI out and CV out from the deluge simultaneously?

[@easytiger1452]

No, just MIDI since everything is going through the 1983. But I'm using the analogue clock in of the deluge to synch it to the modular.

I liked this piece most in the early part when the sounds were coming in arrhythmic bursts and I liked what you did to tame that randomness and have a control over it. Somehow the percussive texture you introduced seemed irrelevant and came only to scar the gentleness of the piece. I have an interest in early computer music experiments which often suffered condemnation from audiences when angular and harsh elements disrupted what was often a quite delicate structure and you're getting into a similar kind of groove here by using formal mathematical elements and probabilities manipulating simple tones. I like the attempt to apply probability in Ableton, in Maschine and even in my Drumbrute but I don't have a mathematical mind at all, so to me it is just another variable and my head hurts if I try to think about it too hard.😅

[@easytiger1452]

Good point, I can totally see how I could have easily left out the rhythm parts altogether or at least tried to have them even looser. Could have led to a more cohesive result. I really do like noisy textures a lot especially when they're set against more graceful elements. I guess it's just closer to how I see the world. When something nice goes on for too long uninterrupted it somehow start to feel off😅

Both of these perspectives are great! I love the combo, definitely a fun glitchy and busy vibe, but controlled and cohesive!
