    In this video I make a techno track from scratch using only Elektron Syntakt. I use many different techniques and explain my workflow in all the details. You can learn how I make techno and hopefully benefit from watching this video by learning a few new things.
    If you join my Patreon you'll get access to the project "Ihor Collection for Syntakt" and will be able to try it out on your own Syntakt!

    🌍 Hello World! My name is Ihor.
    This is my channel where I share my experiences, ideas, reviews and tutorials related to Electronic Music Production. I focus mostly on Techno and House music. In my Studio on my Music Production Desk you will find a variety of different gear like: digital and analog synth, eurorack modular, drum machine, sampler, effect, mixer, guitar pedal, MIDI controller. Also software: DAW, Ableton, VST, plugins.
    I am myself an engineer and I am quite obsessed with the Music Technology and Sound Design. I like making music without a computer. I like playing Electronic Music Live with my Minimal Dawless Setup. I love Eurorack Modular Techno and always keen to talk about the modular workflow.
    I strongly believe that nothing can be better than a good Dawless Techno Jam!
    I watched all the Techno Tutorials on TH-cam! (I think)
    📺 Thanks for watching! And have fun!
    ✌️ Peace.

    Fun fact. 133bpm is the classic techno bpm used on many classic early 90s Detroit artists. Why? Because that’s the speed you need to cut a track to vinyl if you wish to make an endless playing lock groove loop. Accidental bonus also if you are a maniac DJ like Jeff Mills back in the day, if your records skip while mixing it won’t knock your kick drums too out of sync!

      ....Detroit Techno, Rotterdam Techno, Man Parrish, Steve silk Hurley, Juan Atkins and many others that have contributed to this genre...imo techno should be about bringing in new experimental sounds that takes people on a musical journey...if it's 133 BPM, change it, bring the journey to a different level...

      @@jonnyd4nger I like to play melodic techno at 127 bpm. It just makes it vibe more, IMO. It's a more sustainable tempo for dancing as well. A lot of purists would scoff at that, as well as say that melodic techno is basically just trance, but I don't care. It sounds good to me.

Do you find there is so much space to explore by ourself with techno, free from the ego and the hype and only immersed in our spirit and a connection to our inner existence? I love how we can share our journey these days. I grew up in the bush in the 90's listening to AFX and only being able to dream about how it was created. Thanks very much for your insight, and inspiration.
