Amazing. Reminds me of Tim Hecker. Care to explain your process ?

Great job.

Hey Lei, thank you kindly for the words! Yeah guess it’s a bit older-albums Heckeresque stuff though much less refined for sure :smile:

The process is honestly a bit of a blur, just going where it takes me more or less. :smile: If would boil it down to a few elements they would be probably be “riffings”, imagining extra harmonies, trying to keep it in a compatible key, and mixing/composing. It’s done with not toomuch gear, G2 plus a few pedals, nothing special. Not sure I even used the OP1 at all. Could probably sell 70% of my gear and still be able to produce. It’s hard to focus on a composition if you have to think about which toys to use :slight_smile: maybe there’s something to learn in that haha! Hope this anwsers your question :slight_smile:

Badass violinist through aleph (gripper). Boy, this was fun!

I only just started posting my work. This is my first contribution to this thread:

https://soundcloud.com/salierno_d/bundydunnit

First patch with the Winter Modular Eloquencer. This one is mostly just four channels simultaneously recorded from the modular. Minimal editing in Ableton. Patch notes:

Mangrove square and formant > Three Sisters > Optomix
Rings odd and even > Clouds L/R
Braids > Optomix > MMG > Morphagene > Blackhole DSP
Modulation from Just Friends, Maths, and Wogglebug.
Sequencing from Eloquencer.
Clocked by Zularic Repetitor, Tempi, and Wogglebug

Additional sounds come from field recordings and documentary samples.

hey ya’ll,

here are three new tracks, just finished.
each one diverse, different genres
(not sure i’ve found my ‘voice’ yet)
please have a listen.
if you feel inclined i would really appreciate any feedback, constructive hopefully.
i get attached to my creations and have a hard time discerning objectively.
i wonder if they are too long, or too same-samey without enough breaks and variation.
also unsure of technical aspects, mix, and composition.

my Sweetheart is not a good critic, but there are many great musicians here…

thanks, bunny

Emotionally, “what for dinner” is my most important decision in a day. As good choices bring essential daily happiness.

Technically, Just Type is the main sound source, a Mangrove to beef up low end. Two Sisters, one in crossover mode for tone shaping, another in format mode for intense effects, sometimes percussive.

I think the charm lies in the method of polyphony stacking to distortion (a thing to avoid in “normal” sense) for timber morphing. And occasionally jumping modulations to provide a feel of paragraphs.

I loved the video on filter techniques. Will definitely be having a go.

Sonically a bit dense but musically pretty successful in exploring the quantiser- another exploration of the Intellijel uScaleII quantizing module. There is also some subtle (if a little annoying) Ieaskul F. Mobenthey madness in there too.

‘Worries’ is a live session to overcome the things that bother us.

“The Grey Sky That Precedes The Internal Void” is an ambient track I recorded today using primarily my VBrazil System / VB Modular eurorack modules.
Hope you enjoy it :slight_smile:

A patch from yesterday.

I just got a Plonk (yay!) and so this is lots of Plonk loops on the ER-301. There are also some one shot drum samples happening.

a patch from this morning…

mostly just little chords being generated by the Ornament + Crime “Acid Curds” triggering sine wave plucks on the ER-301 then being played through the 4ms Tapographic Delay

Beautiful Marcus, thank you for recording it. I see that you’ve got both a Rainmaker and a Tapographic Delay in your case. What are your thoughts on them individually/combined? I’m very interested in both and would really appreciate your impressions.

Heres 2 noisy ones
