Youngest Brother Plays the Flute

[youngest_brother]

Hey folks - just wanted to share a couple new tracks with you for bandcamp day (and invite you to check out some of the other things in my BC catalogue, if you’re so inclined) - music & artwork by yours truly. These beats are made primarily with a combination of modular gear, C&G Organelle, and Ableton.

Edit: I was asked to provide some more context for the release (this is my first time sharing a release here on Lines) - my name is Niv (“Neeev”) Bavarsky, I’m a visual artist / illustrator & musician from Los Angeles - Youngest Brother is my musical output, and my work tends to revolve around hip-hop adjacent electronic beats, but also ambient & generative modular recordings. This release contains two beats flipping flute (or flute-like) samples, a kind of companion to a previous release “Troped Up / Drunk Dial” which used piano as the anchoring sound palette.

So far I have also created all the artwork for my Youngest Brother releases, some of which I’ll share here:

Thanks for checking it out.

Great beats! Really appreciated them. As an Organelle-owner sort of struggling to fit it into my worflow I’m always curious to hear how other users use theirs. Any special patches used in these beats? Thanks!

Hey thanks!

My favorite organelle patch for beatmaking, easily, is Segmenti (which I’m using for the main melodic content of the 2nd track) I like working with sampled material and I like surprises, so I really connect with that (similarly, Morphagene is the star of my modular system)

I also get a lot of mileage out of Constant Gardner, CA Filter and CA Additive

Thanks! I can see why “inviting surprises” can be a good Organelle-strategy. The challenge is there’s too many patches to learn really.

Really enjoying both of these!
