Chilled House for the Summer: a live jam with Pyramid and Blofeld

Published on Mar 13, 2017 Olivier Ozoux

"Progressive Chillout House track. Recorded live, mild dynamics post-processing. Strangely enough this 5 min track was recorded between 1:00am and 2:10am saturday night. I freaked out a little bit when an hour disapeared from under me. I had forgotten about daylight saving time....

Instruments:
- Squarp Pyramid ( sequencer )
- Korg Electribe ( drums, percussions, and that vocal one shot )
- Audiothingie MicroMonsta ( keys )
- PreenFM2 ( bassline, and that strange metallic melody )
- Waldorf Blofeld ( everything else )"

Published on Dec 29, 2018 Olivier Ozoux

"I don't think I've ever posted a cover here before, this one is the classic
California Dreamin' from the Mama's and the Papa's, with vocals shamelessly lifted from Freischwimmer's own cover.

Squarp Pyramid: sequences all the things
Synthstrom Deluge: digital percussions and vocal samples
MFB Tanzbar: analog percussions
Audiothingies MicroMonsta: pads
Modor NF-1m: organ
PreenFM2: Bass and Percussive bassline
Yamaha MU-80: synth choir, guitar, lead pan flute"

And some grass. ;)

Pyramid's Euclidean Rhythms Meet Novation Circuit

Published on Jan 11, 2017 John Keston

"In the spirit of #JAMUARY2017 (thanks to Cuckoo for having the stamina to do it everyday!) I have made a video track using the Squarp Pyramid, Novation Circuit, Moog Sub 37, PreenFM2, Rhodes, Minifooger Delay, and Korg KP3+. I’m not great at making these (hence the shaky video), but they’re fun to do every so often.

Euclidean patterns drive each of the four Circuit drum parts through individual tracks on the Pyramid. I have it setup with four Euclidean patterns per track bank for a total of sixteen. This way I can mix and match all sixteen patterns on the Pyramid and even swap them or combine them with patterns on the Circuit.
