A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.
I'd recently been inspired by the emergence of so many great live performances on the Moog semi-modular units, thanks in part to the "Moog Sound Studio" bundles now being sold. While most of my favourite tracks were ambient (see AB85's amazing stuff on TH-cam if you haven't already!), I can't help myself. This ended up being a fun groove that I just wanted to bring over the top.
To help, I used the Zoia Euroburo for reverb on the Subharmonicon and Mother 32. I had originally thought I'd use the Euroburo as a modulator as well, but I was happy with the sound and did relatively little patching. Maybe in the future! In any case, the Euroburo did a great job on creating some space for the synth sounds in this track; its "Reverb Lite" algorithm is supposed to be a CPU-friendly alternative, but I find it just sounds pretty great in general.
For the DFAMs, I wanted something to leverage their weirdness and wildness. So for the kick sounds, I used the Valco KGB Fuzz (to get it buzzy and wild and droning at the end) and the UA FX Starlight (to add some energy and stereo space in the finale). And for the cymbal sounds, I added the Erica Synths Zen Delay, which is such an amazing and performative effects pedal, and it became another instrument in its own right.
Overall, this track is a great reminder that good analog boxes can get you 90% of the way there. I love how these semi-modulars sound.
Moog Subharmonicon - Chords and pseudo-arp
Moog Mother 32 - Melody-type thing
Empress Zoia Euroburo - mixer and reverb for the melodic synths
Moog DFAM 1 via Valco KGB Fuzz and UA FX Starlight - kick/bass
Moog DFAM 2 via Erica Synths Zen Delay - cymbals/lasers
Thanks for listening.
Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

I come back to this video every once in awhile to remind myself of what’s possible. 😌✨
This is the greatest synth video on TH-cam. The way the Mother melody overlays the Sub - hits me right in the spine
You have good taste!
"The greatest synth video on TH-cam." ::::sigh:::: I respect your right to an opinion, but honestly... Some names: Lisa Bella Donna. Blush Response. Cuckoo. Venus Theory. Look Mum, No Computer. French 79. EZ Bot. Hainbach. Ben Jordan. This was nice, I agree. But that accolade was more than a bit over zealous.
@@Berus7777 all bad.. u bad too
it is the best
@@Berus7777Is your intent really to make a happy listener happier by redirecting them to something “better”?
Or is it that you don’t understand the fact of subjective musical taste at all?
The whole point of TH-cam is to capture diversity so we don’t all have to watch the same stuff because we don’t all like the same stuff and in my opinion, life is better that way.
Appreciate the good use of the subharmonicon. A wild animal to tame
Ok, thats why these things were created. A tear is running down my eyes.
Impeccable. Love how clean the black background looks with this symmetrical set up.
Fantastic as always
Fantastic work!
LOLed at "I was inspired by some beautiful ambient pieces on these Moog semi-modulars, but I have no chill" - I was just thinking to myself "wow, this is getting strong and great!" Well done at not defaulting to ambient for these beasts, they're able to do more!
absolutely love the build up - so much power
I love the melody on that sequence and that liquid sound
Wow that was utterly brilliant
stunning, thank you so much!
Loved this thank you
Absolutely epic!

Two DFAMs is always the right number! Superb jam so far. Still listening of course. Deploying the laser beams on the DFAM never gets old
So Beautiful!! I'm in love with this.
Wow. I really like the finale! Thanks as usual, Jay.
That was flippin’ gorgeous 🔥🔥🔥

dope jam thank you
This is lit! Great jam
Great sound. A beautiful composition and a wonderful atmosphere. Very nice.
Gorgeous. Inspirational
What an amazing jam! I love the whole set you have there. But also, musically, sounds amazing
I love your setup ❤️
Damn. Such a beautiful arch. So we’ll designed. The development and time horizon of it is perfect. Mastery. I love the muted, dark synths still pulsing at the end after the filters close back down is gorgeous. And using the zen delay as a riser is totally next level creativity. Amazing work on this, man. Thank you for taking the time to educate us and give us a sense of what you’re doing along the well as well 🙏. Makes it not only fun to watch but I feel like I’m becoming a better producer watching you work. Total joy. Thank you!
I appreciate the kind words. I also appreciate you creating a platform for me to get paid as a musician during the non-touring era of my life, and during a pandemic. Let me know if you need music for anything (not that you would, but still). Also, your collab with Knower is a scorcher I still go back to years later!
Agree 100%. Amazing.
Arch ? Like Noé ?
Beautiful. That warm and cozy kick/bass is quite something.
Masterful performance
Really awesome! Great demo of these pieces when used together. Keep up the inspiring work.
I love that you give a play by play. Thank you. Sounds great!
Wow. Every time I thought it could not give any more, it kept on giving. Incredible work.
Man, everything with an empress label on it is amazing. As always, amazing, man. Thank you!
Really a voyage! Nice one
This was so very good. Love to see the melodic side of modular/semi-modular.
Such a great groove. This is one of the best demos of this hardware I've seen. Thanks for sharing!
Great music and performance! Wow
Love what you manage to get from the Moog Subharmonicon and Mother 32 !!!
Keep doing those awesome videos
one of your best pieces, fairly simple and striking at the same time. inspirational piece of vid😁 )
Insanely strong buildup, I LOVE your setup and your skills.
Second time this piece appears in my TH-cam feed. Great performance!
That was heavy. Outstanding.🔥
Im speachless! ❤
Jay, this is a masterpiece. We need more videos
This was excellent, it's strange how healing your music always is for me, thank you
This is masterful! The M32 and SH melodies are really beautiful.
Fantastic.
Really enjoyed the Moog family and friends getting together. Great sound.
Excellent!
That was unreal. loved it!
As always you are good bro, love your work 👍👍
that was simply an audible delight.. quite exquisite.. 🙏👍
This song is a masterpiece
This was absolutely… incredible. Just perfect, every bit of it. More inspired by the last 6ish minutes than I have been by anything in a while. Thank you for this.
This one is really good!
Nice work!
Thanks for doing this. There is soul in this jam and it inspired me a lot. This kind of composition is what makes me stick to the journey of music and thereby influences the decisions i take.
I just had to come back and listen to this beaut all over again! 🙌
Wow, just wow!
Damn man, great stuff! And thanks for the little tutorial built into a demo performance. Nice.
You def have your own sound. Always a touch of melancholy. Love it!
j'adore, merci!
Great Performing!
Super cool! I Love it!
So dope!
dude homie you got to make more stuff like this this is amazing!!!
I’m pretty sure this is my favorite video on TH-cam. I must come back to this at least a few times every couple weeks. This is such a fabulous take!
Wow, really a nice job! You did it just right
Just genius. Did listen to this already couple times after stumbling over the video yesterday. Pretty close to get into modular myself with those moogs. Great work!
Easily the best video of the machines I have ever seen.
Wow! Wonderful!
Damn bro this was really cool. !!
That was terrific
Grateful that you have no chill lol! Yhis was absolutly amazing! Thank you yet again, Jay!
Fantastic! 👏👏👏
