Hypnotic Ambient Jam with Solar 42F | 59 Perlen

video upload by 59 Perlen

"Hi guys ,

at the moment my jams are focused on learning the Solar 42F, what else :D it's still a big challenge to make music spontaneously with the instrument. The preparations still take far too long for me - it can easily take half an hour to tune all the synths. Since my goal is to play a live show with the instrument, I've put the focus on that and I don't yet know how I'm supposed to manage 1 complete hour without a break for the night tuning. Maybe one of you has the Solar and can give me tips on how to configure it for a live performance longer than 15 minutes. Either way, have fun with the jam :D"

Ambient Jam | Elta Music Solar 42F | 59 Perlen

video upload by 59 Perlen

"Hello my friends,

I posted some images of my new acquisition last week. “Kind” is the first jam I recorded on my new synthesizer, the Solar 42F from Elta Music. I named the track “Kind” because this instrument has many buttons, switches and lights that let the child in me play and go on a journey of discovery.

Of course I use an Arabic scale in this first jam :D If you know my music, you also know my preference for Middle East flavours. After my first attempts, I was glad that I got the 24 oscillators more or less in tune with each other - I think that was my biggest difficulty and first challenge to master before I can dive into the endless modular possibilities this engine offers.

Have fun :D"

'Modulation' - Ambient Drones with Lyra-8, Digitakt, Big Sky | 59 Perlen

video upload by 59 Perlen

"This is the latest track of my current ambient drone series, created with Soma Lyra-8, Elektron Digitakt and Strymon Big Sky. I wanted to create a mood that sounds different than the usual Lyra stuff and not like a typical drone. I felt like I need something else in my liveset and here we go - Digitakt adds a simple pad sound to the rhythmic pattern of the Lyra. 'Modulation' is also the title track of my upcoming performance."
