Setting Up...

video upload by No Lake

"Just a few words to let you know that I'm still here. I'm currently working on the new era of my music. It's heading in the direction I wanted it to go. I introduced you to the concept of Brussels School, which means everything and nothing, and I realize that it's ultimately something that suits me.

So what's next? I'll gradually introduce you to jams based on this concept. Rather long pieces that take the time to establish an atmosphere. Something absorbing, bewitching, with a hypnotic and almost insidious rhythm. Something along the lines of "Illusion" or "Hypnosis," which were two of the channel's top three hits. I take this as proof that I'm on the right path.

As explained three weeks ago, there will no longer be videos every week. They will arrive when they arrive. The long-term idea is to rework all these jams to create a real album centered around a single philosophy, but this is another story for later.

Wishing you a great day! See you soon.

Why & How PTNSHIFT Breaks All The Rules: Beginner's Guide

video upload by Tim Exile

"I launched PTNSHIFT a couple of months ago but the launch video left some people confused. In this vid I walk it right back from the start - including why and how it breaks some core rules about how we make music today.

PTNSHIFT is a generative music performance instrument that combines the deep sonic universe of a modular synth with DJ-style interactions like pattern-launching, mixing, blending and FX.

Instruō - Sound Design with Seashell (with Jason H. J. Lim)

video upload by Instruō

"We launched the Instruō Seashell this year at Superbooth.

This video is a behind the scenes look at a sound design session during which I scored one of the pre-release teaser trailers.

The video footage was shot and edited by Mathew. I used the Seashell as the exclusive sound source and scored the trailer.

No post processing or effects were used other than compression/dynamics.

This was my first experience using the Seashell to this extent within a production context. I was effectively late stage beta testing a prerelease build of both the firmware and plugin. I couldn't be happier with the features the Seashell's integration allows. This is a workflow I've wanted for a long time with this level of flexibility. The portability and form factor we've also achieved with Seashell is something I'm incredibly proud of.

My co-developers at Instruō are a true powerhouse of creativity.
I hope you enjoy the Seashell as much as I have been :)

Ciat Lonbarde Sample Pack
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...

116 Oneshots
30 Drones
Crafted from the Unpredictable
This evolving sample pack is a curated collection of sounds generated entirely with the eccentric modular instruments of Ciat Lonbarde. Featuring raw sessions recorded with Peterlin and Plumbutter 2, it offers a unique sonic palette ranging from fractured noise textures to rich ambient drones and abstract one-shots.

The Handcrafted World of Ciat Lonbarde
Ciat Lonbarde is the creation of instrument builder and sound thinker Peter Blasser. His designs reject conventional synthesis in favor of circuits that behave like living organisms. These instruments respond with tactile irregularity and voltage-driven nuance. This collection is not a digital imitation. It is the real analog, shaped in real time by touch and signal.

For the Forward-Thinking Producer
Whether you’re working in experimental ambient, leftfield techno, cinematic sound design, or simply seeking sonic material that resists the algorithmic polish of modern production, these samples offer tactile character and genuine unpredictability. No two loops are alike. No modulation repeats.

What’s Inside
Atmospheric drones
Textural noise beds
One-shot percussive blips and pulses
Select loopable material with musical intent
Files designed to inspire both immediate use and deep sampling exploration
Free Lifetime Updates
Your purchase is not a one-time transaction. This pack is a growing archive. New recordings are added continuously at no extra cost. Previous buyers already have access to the latest updates. If you haven’t joined yet, now is a perfect time.

Listen or Use
Several pieces included were composed with musical intent. They can be sampled, reshaped, or simply listened to as drone compositions in their own right. Sound as music. Music as sound."

Lux 🔆 (Erica Synths LXR-02 + Oto Boum Compressor // Ableton Move 1.5 // Arturia Keystep Pro)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"2 minutes, no warning! 🥳
In this video, I really wanted to make use of the 1.5 new features of the Ableton Move like sequencing the different tracks of the Move from another sequencer (Keystep Pro here) and its new Auto Filter effect 🤩 (I was really waiting for these 2 updates!).

So the track starts with DRUMS played and sequenced by the LXR-02, through the Oto Machines Boum stereo analog compressor.
I then introduce the Move by opening the new Auto Filter effect.
The Move is playing some secondary percussions (Track 1), the BASS (Track 2, sequenced by Track 2 of the Keystep Pro), the ARP (Track 3 of the Move, sequenced by Track 3 of the Keystep Pro) and the CHORDS (Track 4 of the Move, sequenced by Track 4 of the Keystep Pro).

So with this setup, I was able to transpose in real-time the instruments played by the Move 😃

Hardware used *

// DRUMS
Erica Synths x Sonic Potions LXR-02 v1.7 (digital drum machine an integrated sequencer, 6 different instruments) + Oto Machines Boum (full analog stereo warming unit)

// BASS, CHORDS, ARP, secondary DRUMS
Ableton Move v1.5

// SEQUENCER

Ambient Generative Music | Ableton Air & Roland JP-8080

video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto

"Generative Sequencer: Ableton Air https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...

Inspired by Timeless Techniques
"Air" draws its inspiration from Brian Eno's Music for Airports and the concept of overlapping tape loops. This Ableton Max for Live plugin translates these ideas into a modern generative sequencer, enabling you to explore infinite musical possibilities without repetitive programming.
Effortless Note Generation
Forget the constraints of the piano roll. 'Air' generates notes autonomously, creating endless variations of melodies, rhythms, and harmonies. Your music becomes a living, breathing entity that evolves over time, making each moment unique.
Perfect for Experimental and Ambient Music
Whether you're crafting immersive ambient soundscapes, exploring experimental electronica, or composing intricate minimal music, "Air" provides the tools to elevate your creativity. Its generative approach ensures that no two performances are ever the same, offering a fresh perspective with every playback.
Features Designed for Limitless Inspiration
Evolving Sequences: Generate infinitely unique patterns that never repeat.
Customizable Settings: Fine-tune parameters to align with your artistic vision.
Seamless Integration: Designed for Ableton Live users who value creativity and experimentation.
Create Music That Breathes
'Air' is more than a plugin—it's a partner in creation, designed for musicians who embrace unpredictability and seek to push boundaries. Unleash the power of generative composition and let your music take flight."

Dreamer 💭 (Sequential Take 5 + H90 / Nymphes + Microtubes X / 0Coast + Timeline / TR6S / Hapax)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"Back to the ~2-minute format 😅

In this track, the Hapax is sequencing all the instruments, starting with the Take 5 where I tweak a few knobs. Then comes the BASS played by the Nymphes. For this sound, I used its LFO's delay parameter. Thus you first hear the sound without any modulation, then comes the syncopated part at the end of the sound! I finally launch the LEAD part played by the 0-Coast through the Timeline delay and DRUMS, played by the TR-6S. The Hapax FILL button is being used here to activate a couple of MIDI effects on the different tracks.

Hardware used *

// 🥁 DRUMS: Roland TR-6S (Digital Rhythm Performer)
// 🎸 BASS: Dreadbox Nymphes (6-voice analog synth) + Darkglass Microtubes X (Multiband analog Distortion)
// 🎹 PLUCKS: Sequential Take 5 (5-voice analog synth) + Eventide H90
// 🎸 LEAD: Make Noise 0-Coast (semi-modular analog mono synth) + Strymon Timeline (Ice Delay)
// SEQUENCER: Squarp Instruments Hapax

Recorded in one shot and mixed in Ableton Live."

Minimoog & Ableton SOLFA – A Generative MIDI Sequencer for Minimal and Experimental Music

video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto

"SOLFA – A Generative MIDI Sequencer for Minimal and Experimental Music
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
Inspired by Arvo Pärt, Designed for Creative Exploration
SOLFA is a generative MIDI sequencer for Ableton Max for Live, built for electronic music producers, experimental composers, ambient sound designers, and those interested in algorithmic composition. Inspired by the works of Arvo Pärt, this tool allows you to create evolving, hypnotic patterns that seamlessly blend tonal minimalism with rhythmic complexity.
Minimal Pitch, Infinite Possibilities
At the core of SOLFA is a simple seven-note sequence. These notes are randomized across octaves, generating organic melodic shifts. This structured yet fluid approach results in endlessly varying musical textures that maintain a coherent harmonic identity.
Independent Rhythmic Structures
SOLFA employs isorhythmic principles, where the pitch sequence operates independently from the rhythm pattern. This allows for intricate, evolving interactions between melody and rhythm, giving rise to unexpected yet deeply musical results.
Ideal for Generative and Experimental Music
Whether you're composing ambient soundscapes, intricate polyrhythmic pieces, or avant-garde electronic music, SOLFA provides a unique method for crafting evolving compositions with minimal input. By embracing randomness within defined constraints, it encourages exploration while maintaining musical cohesion.
Unlock New Creative Dimensions
Transform simple ideas into dynamic, evolving sequences with SOLFA. Experiment with chance, structure, and unpredictability to discover new musical possibilities. Now available for Max for Live."

The M8 Tracker Is Absolutely Unstoppable

video upload by EZBOT

"The M8 Tracker is my all-time favorite portable groovebox. I've used it in several commercial productions and plan to use it for many more that are already in the pipeline. Why do I love it? Its workflow lets me program music in a linear song format—without the scope creep and clicky mania that comes with working in a DAW. For anyone who wants to write a song without being tied to a computer, there's no instrument I recommend more than the M8 Tracker by Dirtywave. Today we explore some new BETA features that really do up the power this tiny box has to offer."
