Solvent slow acid improv w/808, x0xb0x, Modcan, Doepfer Regelwerk,...


YouTube via s0LVentCIty.

part 2 here " Hi - my name is Jason Amm and I release melodic electro(nica) music under the artist name Solvent, for labels including Ghostly International, Morr Music, and Suction Records.

You can check my music via:
solventcity.com
myspace.com/solventcity

I just wanted to get something uploaded for now, while I figure out how to use iMovie....

In the future I'll be uploading better videos, with audio from the mixer rather than the camera's built-in mic. I definitely have more-interesting tracks coming up...

OK so here is a slow acid improv. The Doepfer Regelwerk is the master clock, and is sequencing the MAM ADX-1 (high hats) and Jomox MBase-01 (kick). The Regelwerk also has DIN-sync out, so that's how the 808 is being synced. x0xb0x sequencer is receiving Regel's MIDI-clock. The Modcan is strictly being used for processing some 808 sounds.

BTW, the Modcan isn't mine, unfortunately! I had it on loan from a guy named Jeff, who makes really nice music under the name Minisystem (myspace.com/minisystem)."

  1. i like the first track, very gritty and kinda dirty sounding. dropping the tempo also adds a lot of funk i think.

  2. nice tune, ahame about the over zealous dj hand gestures...i find that "oh this knob tweak took so much skill" gesture incredibly tedious

  3. thanks for the compliments guys... jason, i can understand what you're saying about the hand gestures, but believe me i am not trying to show off in any way... i am not a dj, and i'm equally critical of DJs acting like tweaking an EQ is some momentous act... i was actually surprised when i watched this video to see how exagerated my hand-movements are... but it seems to be what i do naturally, not some sort of affectation
