Torso S-4 • Shifting Divisions

video upload by Nate Connelly Music

"Torso Electronics S4 Sculpting Sampler

Last night I was experimenting with the Torso. I have only a pad running on track 1 and a kick on track 2. I set-up 6 scene instances and changed the rate divisIons for the pad on each one - I then created some variation in terms of effects etc and set the sequences to run in a chain with the sequence order set to randomize. It runs at 95bpm, then 50, then 180.

Thanks for listening."

LYRA-8 Ambient • It will sing if you let it

"Soma Labs LYRA-8 Organismic Synthesizer

Track title: Morning Spaces

I've been playing with the LYRA-8 again after some time. Well known for it's intense sound design and noise capabilites, one of my favourite ways to use it is by taking the time to delicately tune each oscillator by ear, and then see how certain phrases and melodies emerge out from the ether.

Equipment used:
• Lyra-8
• Strymon BigSky

Soma Labs Lyra 8 #4 improv | dark electronic ambient industrial soundscape | a short film nightmare

video upload by Nate Connelly

"Soma Laboratories Lyra 8 analogue synthesizer drone machine.

I created this soundscape and short film for Halloween 2021. A friend and I went for a walk around beacon fell to do some filming and sound recording a few weeks ago, but the weather was far too wet and windy to do either!

However, I managed to get a few shots of the spectacular foggy atmospheres on my Osmo action, and thought they would pair well with the otherworldy sounds of the Lyra 8... so here we are.

The samples are from some radio show about haunted woodlands I recorded late on night on my field recorder.

I hope you enjoy. Please like & subscribe for more videos.

Moog Sub37 Prophet Rev2 Volca Drum Stretchweaver beats vocals | live electronic burial style beats

video upload by Nate Connelly

"Moog Sub37 Prophet Rev Volca Drum Stretchweaver beats vocals live ambient electronic burial style beats and drums.

The mix you hear is as it was performed. No overdubs. The Sub37 and the Prophet Rev2 are going through the Strymon BigSky, and then into my computer via my GoldMike Pre-Amp. I applied a little multi-band compression and a limiter to the final stereo mix in post.

The track is titled 'Grey Lies' and is a work in progress.

The white noise you hear was sampled from the Sub37 and looped in the DAW. The bass tones are coming from the Moog Sub37 and into channel 1 of the stretch weaver - the melody loop sequence is coming from the Prophet Rev2 and into channel 2 of the stretchweaver. The stretchweaver is set to the tape setting, and as the bass opens up it controls the side-chain to the melody on the Prophet Rev2. The volca drum is playing the simple mid-kick pattern from the start, with some hi-hats coming in at the peak of the track. I created the burial style drum pattern in Cubase 11 Pro using various samples of rocks and stones, along with various kick drum layers. I took the vocal sample from an acapella on Youtube and re-arranged the pitch and the words to make my own melody and meaning.

Prophet Rev2 Stretchweaver music-box mechanism Gecho Loopsynth | minimal ambient melodic experiment

video upload by Nate Connelly

"Music Box, Gechological Gecho Loopsynth v2, Sequentail Prophet 8 Rev2, Drolofx Stretchweaver. Ambient melodic electronic musical looping & sequencing experiments.

The gecho / music box loops are going into channel 1 of the drolofx stretch-weaver - the prophet Rev2 into channel 2 of the stretch-weaver. The Rev-2 is playing a programmed chord sequence in the same key as the melody on the music box. Stretchweaver is on the gate setting. The Gecho music box loops are opening the gate for the Rev2. You can hear how I am adjusting the amount of the Rev2 the music box loops are allowing through. Everything is going through the strymon big-sky, because life is nothing without reverb.
