Roland FANTOM 4x4x4 Challenge using 4 NEW MODEL EXPANSIONS!!!
video by gattobus
"I accepted the 4x4x4 challenge that consists in building a song in just 4 minutes, using 4 Chords, playing 4 new Model Expansions for Roland FANTOM:
SH-101, Jupiter-8, JX-8P and JUNO-106.
I decided to raise the bar a little by doing this starting from scratch, using 4 INITIALIZED PRESETS!
Will I be able to do it?
Watch the video and see for yourself!!!
Hardcore synth nerds only!!!
(Headphones recommended)
#444xchallenge"
Kebu takes on the Fantom 4x4x4 Challenge
video by Kebu
"The idea of the challenge is to create a song with the Roland Fantom synth in 4 minutes, playing 4 chords only, and using the 4 new Model Expansions (vintage synth emulations of the Roland JX-8P, Juno-106, SH-101 and Jupiter-8).
Somehow I misunderstood the challenge and thought you ALSO had to compose the tune in 4 minutes ("create" = "compose"?). This made the challenge quite difficult! Not to come up with ideas, but to actually have it made in 4 minutes! I didn't succeed until my 14th attempt! Also, I decided to shoot everything in a single take and forced myself to come up with new musical ideas for each take, as I didn't allow myself to start with any ready-made ideas. In the end I decided to choose which synth sounds to use in advance, because otherwise it would have been impossible for me, because I couldn't get past the sound selection in 4 minutes. I'm so picky with my synth sounds. :)
Next, I challenge my friend Ludvig Olin with the #444xChallenge! And, of course, anyone with a Fantom can give it a go! Remember to use the tag #444xChallenge when you post your video.

Kebu - Just Another Space Odyssey (Roland Keyboard Rig)
Kebu
"In this video I perform "Just Another Space Odyssey" with an all-Roland keyboard rig, controlled by the Fantom's sequencer. The first two minutes of the tune is built up in real-time, by recording MIDI notes and looping them back. At 2:20, I start triggering pre-recorded MIDI sequences from the Fantom and play along with them.
Synths used:
Roland Fantom 6, Jupiter X, Jupiter Xm, System 8, JD-XA, TR-8S, TR-808, Alpha Juno 1 & 2 and SE-02
The audio was recorded in one take, but the video was edited from multiple takes."

"This is a remix I made for a competition. If you like it, please follow this link and vote for it by pressing "spin" (requires registration):
http://www.beatportal.com/remix/detail/ab-you-got-to-go-kebu-remix/
I didn't plan to make any more videos before my upcoming album is ready, but I stumbled upon a competition to remix Above & Beyond's "You got to go". Since I've recently discovered Anjunabeats and their great trance compilation Worldwide 03, which I've been spinning almost every day now for two weeks, I just had to take the time to give it a shot!
I saved only the vocals (sung by Zoë Johnston) from the original track and remade all music using only analog synths. The analog synths and analog drum machines were controlled in realtime by a MIDI sequencer and mixed together with the vocal using an analog mixer and hardware effects.
Equipment used: Korg Mono/Poly, Polysix, Poly-61; Roland Juno-60, Alpha Juno, TR-808 (w. MIDI); Moog Source; Oberheim Matrix 6R; Vermona DRM1 Mk III; Electro Harmonix Small Stone; Boss BD-2 (H2O mod), DD-3; Lexicon MPX500; DBX 290; Emagic AMT8; M-Audio Midisport 8x8/s; Alesis iO26; Cubase SL 1.06; Allen & Heath GS1; Yamaha S30 (as MIDI keyboard); Doepfer MCV1; Kenton Pro 2.

"This is the second tune I made for my debut album, "To Jupiter and Back", released in May by Secret Entertainment: http://www.inverse.fi/store/?p=en.levyt.item.html&pid=17004
This video was recorded live at Kulttuuritehdas Korjaamo, Helsinki, 30th of November 2012. Many thanks to Lauri Kujanpää and Pertti Grönholm for working the cameras.
The song was performed using only analog synthesizers, either played live or sequenced. Equipment used in this song: Korg Micro-preset M500, Poly-61, Polysix; Logan String Melody; Touched by Sound DRM1, Roland TR-808, Juno 60, Alpha Juno 1 & 2; Moog Source; Electro Harmonix Small Stone; Yamaha RS7000 (only for MIDI sequencing); Behringer DDX3216, ADA8000; Lexicon MPX500; Steinberg Midex 8 (as midi patchbay).
Unfortunately, the audio recording from the concert failed - it was recorded only as boring mono. But fortunately, I recorded my general rehearsal a few days before the gig, so the main audio you hear is from that.

Kebu - Roland JUPITER-Xm demo (live at Abbey Road Studios)
Kebu
"In August 2019 I was invited to perform at Roland's launch event at Abbey Road Studios in London, with the then top-secret JUPITER-Xm. So I was borrowed a pre-production unit and was planning to use it as part of a keyboard rig setup. Having tested it for a few days, I realized that I could do a whole tune using only one the JUPITER-Xm. So I composed a new tune (still unnamed) that I performed live at Abbey Road Studio 2 on the launch event.
The tune uses two scenes, with the main part of the tune being based around a factory preset by Gattobus that I modified. All the sounds are generated in realtime by the synth's I-Arpeggiator based on my playing. There are no backing tracks or pre-made sequences. I use an iPad running MIDI Designer for controlling some parameters that were not accessible from the front panel of the synth in the beta version of the firmware. The iPad was connected using the built-in Bluetooth of the JUPITER-Xm.
Many thanks to Roland for this great opportunity and for providing the video!"

Kebu - Perplexagon part 1 (Novation Circuit OG remix)
video upload by bigkik
"Hello,
I discovered the Perplexagon album from Kebu a few weeks ago and instantly got hypnotized by those synthesizers sounds, so I could not resist giving it a try.
I actually picked also a loop from 'Perplexagon part 4' for the intro.

Synth Jams I Album by Marcus Padrini
Marcus Padrini, featured numerous times here on MATRIXSYNTH, has a new release out titled Synth Jams. Above are three videos featuring his music: 522 - [previously posted here], Synth Odyssey - [previously posted here], Influences [previously posted here]. Details on the release including links to your favorite platforms follow:
"Synth Jams I is a compilation of tracks recorded live using analog and digital synthesizers and drum machines. The songs were created from improvisations with different instruments and were captured practically the moment after their creation.
With influences from the songs and timbres of classic and new artists like Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Erik Norlander and Kebu, besides several works of electronic/instrumental music, the tracks of the album do not have a common style, but they share a main element: the sounds created with synthesizers.
In this process, the idea was to interact with the instruments, create and manipulate sounds in real time. It was also part of the plan to leave the computer and music production software out of this process. Therefore, anything that could not be played simultaneously live was performed by a MIDI sequencer (Roland MC808).
Gear used on Synth Jams I
►Analog Synths: Arp Odyssey, Moog Sub 37, Dave Smith Instruments Mopho Keyboard & TETRA, Behringer Deepmind 12.
►Digital Synths: Korg Radias, Roland JP8080, Roland SH-32, Access Vírus Indigo, Yamaha DX7II, Nord Stage 2EX.
►Drum Machines & Grooveboxes: Roland MC-808, Roland TR-626, MFB 522, Korg Electribe ER-1, Novation Circuit.

Synth spotting via Sebastian Teir on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge
"You can now pre-order my album for only 10 euro/dollars!! This offer will expire on the release date - 2 May 2012. The CD will be shipped to you so that you should receive it by the Finnish release date. Shipping 2 euro/dollars shipping! http://www.inverse.fi/store/
Finally, my debut album is ready!! This album is a tribute to the great synthesizer music that I grew up with of artists such as Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, and Mike Oldfield. The album consists of music made only using vintage analog synthesizers recorded in the old fashioned way using only sequencers, tape machines and analog mixers, which gives the album a very warm and organic sound.
My album will be released on the Secret Entertainment label as a digipack CD and mp3 downloads. The Finnish release date is 2.5.2012 and the international release date is 8.6.2012."

Kebu - Requiem for a Dream (Roland D50 demo)
YouTube Uploaded by kebunator on Apr 10, 2011
"I took some time to learn a bit more about programming my Roland D50, so I made a tune using only the D50 and its built in effects.
The song was programmed/performed and recorded using Cubase SL. Most of the patches used are my own programs or variations on presets. Each instrument was recorded individually by multitracking. No plugins were used except for mild EQ on some tracks and a single-band limiter on the master track. The reverbs, delays and choruses heard are all D50's own effects. The video was later compiled showing how the various parts were played."

Kebu - The Lunar Effect (Yamaha S30 demo)
YouTube Uploaded by kebunator on Mar 19, 2011
"This time I wanted to explore the limits of my Yamaha S30, so I decided to do a whole tune only by MIDI sequencing.
The song was programmed/performed using Cubase SL solely as a MIDI sequencer controlling the S30 (in "Performance" mode). The song was then recorded straight to 2-track tape in one go. No overdubs, multitracking or external effects were used. Only mild EQ and limiting was used for the digital master. The video was later compiled showing how the various parts were played or programmed."

"Jam" with Roland JD-XA and TR-808
Published on Nov 9, 2017 Machiwoomiapoo
"'Jam' with Roland JD-XA and TR-808
Here's my first tune with the JD-XA. I'm very surprised at the variety of sounds in it. I pre-programmed the TR-808 and the BASS line with the MSQ-700. Then I played the 'aJuno; (Kebu) patch for the pluck type sound. Next I added the 'Massive Pads' patch for the chords. Finally I used the 'Pomoma' patch for the lead. Thanks for listening."

Kebu - To Jupiter and back (TR-606 + Juno 60 + Axxe + Logan demo)
YouTube via kebunator | October 14, 2010
"I wanted to learn how to use my Roland TR-606, so I thought the best way would be to compose a song with it. And here's the result!
The song was recorded live. No overdubs, performed in one go straight through!
The TR-606 sends external gate trigger-signals each time a high tom or low tom hit is activated. I muted the tom sounds and used the pattern sequencer for the low tom for controlling the arpeggiator clock of a Roland Juno 60 instead. The pattern for the high tom controls the gate to an Arp Axxe.
The Logan String Melody II is run through a EHX Small Stone phaser. Both the Juno and the Logan is sent to a simple delay. I would have wanted to have the song 100% analog, but my space echo broke down, so I had to use a digital delay (TC M300). All instruments are also fed more or less to a stereo spring reverb (Vesta Kaza RV-3). The output from the mixer is recorded with a stereo cassette deck. Mild EQ and limiting was used in the final digital mastering stage.
The song title? To me the song was an adventurous voyage, hence the title. :)"

Editors - Papillon (performed by Kebu on a Roland Alpha Juno-synth)
YouTube via kebunator | July 15, 2010
"This video is a tribute to the best pop song of the decade, and also to a magnificent but underestimated synth from the 80's.
I woke up one morning with a weird idea of making a cover of the tune called "Papillon" by Editors, using only my Roland Alpha Juno! The equipment visible in the video was the only equipment used for producing the song: a programmer ("editor") for the juno (PG-300), a stereo recording interface (Mindprint Trio), an overdrive stomp box (Boss BD-2), and a computer. The synth was recorded using a multitrack software (Cubase SL). Only the following plugins were used: one stereo reverb, one mono delay, channel EQ, as well as a multiband compressor and limiter on the final master."

Kebu - To the unknown woman (Korg M-500 & PE-2000 demo)
YouTube via kebunator | June 27, 2010 | 3:22
"Here is a song I composed to demonstrate a few sounds from the Korg Micro-Preset (M-500) and Polyphonic Ensemble Orchestra (PE-2000) analog synthesizers, both from the 1970's.
After the song was composed, I noticed that it bears some similarities to Vangelis' song "To the unknown man" (most of the chord changes and the key - C sharp). While "To the unknown man" grows into a quite bombastic tune from its humble beginnings, this tune stays rigid, but still airy and modest until the end, kind of complementing each other. Hence the song title.
Each part was recorded separately to a reel-to-reel recorder (Tascam 38) and mixed using an analog mixer. An analog drum machine (Roland TR-808) was used for providing the rhythm track. A tape delay (Roland RE-201) was the only effect used in addition to a phaser (EHX small stone) for the noise. Mild EQ and limiting was used in the final digital mastering stage."

Kebu - Sticky strut (Yamaha SY-1 demo)
YouTube via kebunator — June 12, 2010 — "This is a song demonstrating the sounds of the Yamaha SY-1 synthesizer. Since it is a monophonic analog synth, no chords can be played. The song was made by multitracking to a computer. No other effects were used than a Roland Space Echo and channel EQ. The drums are sampled. For mixdown, the tracks were subgrouped and transfered to a Tascam 38 8-track tape recorder. The song was mixed in realtime with an analog mixer to a stereo cassette deck. EQ and limiting was used for the final digital master."

SUPERBOOTH19 – Berlin 09. - 11. May
SUPERBOOTH19 – Berlin 09. - 11. May from HerrSchneider on Vimeo.
"SUPERBOOTH19 is the biggest trade fair for electronic musical instruments. 250 exhibitors, 30+ concerts each day, workshops and DIY.
Tickets now on sale at superbooth.com
__________
SchneidersLaden presents SUPERBOOTH19"
"Besides the 250 exhibitors from all over the world, SUPERBOOTH19 offers more than 30 concerts and workshops every day. International artists from all genres of electronic music will be present in the three-day program accompanying the trade fair.
Daniel Miller (Mute Records) will play the full version of his modular live set, Robert Lippok (Raster-Media) will be there, as will Scottish musician and instrument maker Ken Macbeth together with T.Raumschmiere (Shitkatapult). Caterina Barbieri plays a Gesprächskonzert for Frap Tools. Christian Vogel, Barbara Morgenstern, Lucid Grain, CYRK, Kebu, Kypski, Tilted Circle, POND – the keyboard electronics classic of the GDR – and more will be playing on the many stages at SUPERBOOTH19. The winners of Ick mach Welle, a music project that enables people with disabilities to play electronic music, are also represented in the program of SUPERBOOTH19.
Educational Saturday
Saturday at SUPERBOOTH19 will be dedicated to education and thus reflects the tradition of the event space FEZ Berlin. The workshops on Modular Synthesizers and DIY offered especially for pupils and students make Saturday particularly attractive for young people. That applies in particular, because of the special pricing for educational institutions, which can apply for strongly discounted ticket contingents. But also for all other guests there are different educational opportunities in the program on all days of the event.
Although the event offers a daily program until 11 pm, there are still several official aftershow-events to celebrate the rest of the night. The C-Base as a publicly accessible and official venue is complemented by three company events in the OHM-Club – for both locations there is currently a program with a lot of live music in the making. C-Base and OHM can be reached very comfortably with the regular boat shuttle.
Boat-trip to SUPERBOOTH19
The free shuttle service runs several times a day between FEZ and Mitte and ensures a relaxed journey to SUPERBOOTH19 and also back to Mitte. This is a great opportunity to make new contacts, talk shop or enjoy the unusual perspective of Berlin.
Visitors with a trade visitor ticket can enter the fair at 10 am. All other guests can buy full-day tickets, which are valid from 1 pm to midnight and will give you access to the C-Base for the after-show events. If you only want to see the evening program, you can buy tickets from March onwards which allow admission from 6 pm. Children and young people up to the age of 16 can attend the event free of charge."
