Drum & Bass at Sunset 🌅 LIVE Electronic Hardware Session

video upload by imagination.project

"🌅 A new Drum & Bass live session performed at sunset by the Black Sea in Odesa, Ukraine.

Built live with Elektron Digitakt II, Digitone and Roland S-1 🎛️ — melodic DnB, deep bass, psychedelic synth textures and evolving hardware sequences.

This time I also brought Virus synth sounds into the track, adding a deeper psychedelic character to the mix. 🌀

Roland S-1 takes a special role in the transitions, creating wild evolving effects and sequences, while Digitakt II and Digitone drive the groove, bass and melodic layers.

🌊 One of the most beautiful sunsets we’ve captured for an Imagination.Project session — electronic music, psychedelic sound and the Black Sea coming together in one live performance.

Recorded on the Black Sea coast in Odesa, Ukraine. 🇺🇦"

This time the session moves into a warmer African-inspired DnB vibe — melodic rhythms, percussion and electronic textures performed live on Digitakt II as the sun goes down over the sea.
No studio. No prepared stage. Just hardware, music, rocks and the Black Sea.

New Elektron Outbox8 opens up Digitakt II.

video upload by keinseier

"A lot of cables, because: a lot of new routing options! Made possible by the breakout box Outbox8 for most Elektron boxes, in this case the Digitakt II. Ion this track I chose to send several channels to the AC Noises Continua into the Electronic Audio Experiments Scattering, others to the GFI Soils Ventus for Delay and Shimmer, and the rest dry. So many new options!"

Elektron Outbox 8 — Information from Sweden

video upload by Elektron

"Outbox 8 adds eight outputs for configurable audio and CV, meaning you can turn your compatible Elektron machine into an octopus of connectivity. Add external effects. Separate your tracks out to a mixer or wherever. Control and sequence your modular gear or any other CV-equipped devices. And though Outbox 8 is predominantly made with your Elektron units in mind, it can do the same with a bunch more class-compliant gear too. Break out your sound and control, whatever the moment calls for."

"Finally back after the summer break with a new IDM take on the classic Elektron silver machines.

In addition used the BOSS CE1 for thickening the pads.

"I've been building a set up for an upcoming live show and using a ‪@NovationTV‬ Launch Control XL to break open the ‪@WeAreElektron‬ Tonverk. The vid starts with the basics like using https://midi.guide/ to start and then uploading the map via Components. Then exploring how to make complex macro effect chains using MIDI CC1 ModWheel and MIDI CC2 Breath Controller to control up to four parameters at once.

BOARDS OF CANADA - Sherbert Heat (COVER -Prophet REV2, Analog Heat+FX, OP-1 field)

video upload by nicola neeco

"Here’s my interpretation of Sherbert Head by Boards of Canada, from The Campfire Headphase album.
It’s a relatively underrated piece, but still one of the most beautiful short tracks they’ve ever made.

I used the Prophet Rev2, Elektron Analog Heat +FX, and Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field.
The Analog Heat was key in shaping the noise, saturation, and lo-fi texture that I wanted to bring into this version."

Daft Punk / J-Dilla / MachineDrum Sounds, Inside a LinnDrum. Da funk

video upload by Program 17

"This is the exact drums Daft Punk sampled for Da Funk, J-Dilla Drums, and Elektron Sounds inside the Linn drum. I made the EPROMs using a Oberheim Prommer. It was not an easy task. But I took layered drums. Sampled them, turned them to binary, then program them for the Linn drum. I loved daft punk growing up. I’m from Detroit. I use to hang around J-Dilla at the time. I owned a Linn drum since I was a teenager. It was my dream to program sounds for a Linn drum. I spent thousands of hours programming a Linn drum and often times wondered how to make my Linn drum sound like daft punk. Well I did it. Inside of using a SP-1200, these are the sounds inside a Linn drum.

Kick and snare are the daft punk drums.
The hat is Machine drum.
Kicks from a machine drum are in the toms and congas.

The J Dilla claps and snares are the same exact method J Dilla would use on his Drums. After reading the book “dilla time” I was inspired to make the drums a little bit off. If you look at the actual original binary files of the Linn Drum on a spectral graph or analyze the way form, you will notice that the drums are not perfect. Prince always said you need air to make it an instrument so I gave the samples a little bit of room in the beginning so it kind of sounds off but it’s not off because you can program the timing with the pitch now exactly like a clap trap, which is ironic because that’s what I heard where the Drum clap originally came from.

Some 140 Beats with Korg Volca Drum NEW (unofficial) Firmware by hj-oja

video upload by Waiting For Zyo

"After the Hacktribe for the Electribe 2 and Pajen’s firmware for the Volca Sample, it’s now time for the Korg Volca Drum to get its own unofficial firmware update by hj-oja.

This new firmware adds some interesting features, such as Elektron-style conditions, which allow you to create longer and more complex patterns, as well as new Play FX (including octave up/down, bitcrush, reverse, all FX send, FX send only), and more.

The sound generator remains the same, but with a much more powerful sequencer that turns the Volca Drum into a real little groovebox.

I pushed the Volca Drum to its limits using the mixer send technique and added some reverb and delay in Ableton.

Enjoy!"

APHEX TWIN - #8 (COVER - Prophet REV2, Elektron Syntakt & OP-1field)

video upload by nicola neeco

"I made a cover of #8, also known as 'Blur,' by Aphex Twin, from the iconic album Selected Ambient Works Volume II (Warp Records 1994)

One of the darkest and most hypnotic tracks on the album, Blur has a unique atmosphere that I tried to reinterpret using a small setup of 3 hardware instruments.

I recorded the entire performance in a single take, using:
• Sequential Prophet Rev2 for the main synth parts (with Valhalla Vintageverb reverb)
• Elektron Syntakt for the drums and rhythmic elements (no samples)
• Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field for the string sound

A special thanks to my friend Lorri for lending me his OP-1 Field for this performance.
