Kind of a beat-up, shimmery, ambient piece.

Started life as a modular improvisation that I ditched and then processed past the point of recognition via (VCV Rack) Clouds, the Borderlands iOS app, and various Ableton devices.

One of those super quick patches that turned out to be pretty good, I think.
All in one take.

Analog four drives the eurorack setup.
Plaits is the drums and bass, Rings the “pads” and Just Friends in a sketchy, stressful Plume mode.

Recently DIY’ed an overhead arm for my tripod out of PVC. I hope to make more video like this of just raw sound exploration.

here’s something recorded recently. i thought of it as an homage the the disintegration loops, replacing the meditative, relaxing feeling of those recordings with the anxiety and unevenness of the streaming age

Here’s something for the ears. Field recordings and synth lines being fed into the high and low inputs of Sisters. Sisters’ outputs are then multed to channels of an Intellijel Quadratt to act as a mid-side to left-right converter. Modulating Sisters’ parameters makes for lots of interesting stereo effects where the low band is treated as the mid signal, and the high as the sides. Be sure to listen with headphones!

After the trials and tribulations of getting my new (to me) grid to work I finally got to make some music this afternoon.

I’m really excited by the grids as a UI for electronic music - and here I am looping and building with both the push 2 and the monome grid

Hi modular lovers!

Here’s modular404 release #007:
Nordlys from Brussels made this ambient track in the shadow of the Atomium.
On the screenshot from modulargrid you can see the rack he used to make “The Boat”.
Have a look at Modular 404 to listen, and sign up to stay tuned!

Enjoy “The Boat” by Nordlys!

First recorded patch with the 6u. A little repetitive, but it’s a start!

a new soundscape. first time to use a 4-tracker “live” with my modular synth and am quite happy with the routing possibilities in combination with a FieldKit…please enjoy:)

Sometimes you need to make music that expresses how you feel. This song was totally for me but I thought it might make some others feel better as it did I.

A little ambient track/experiment I made from a Dreadbox Erebus loop (first a sequence and then some other bits overdubbed on top). The only sound source was the Erebus.

I then added some automated primal tap for delay hold and pitch shift effects.

The noise and hiss is all from the Erebus’s crusty lofi delay.
