Tech Talk: K.A.S.I. - Serge Modular, Improvisation & Organic Movement (Electronic Beats TV)

video upload by Telekom Electronic Beats TV

"For this episode of Electronic Beats Tech Talk, we visited Kasi in the studio to explore her unique approach to live electronic performance, modular synthesis, and hardware-driven sound design.
She is currently studying Electronic Music Production and Performance at Catalyst – Institute for Creative Arts and Technology.
Working with the Serge Modular System, selected Eurorack modules, the Erica Synths Perkons, and the Elektron Analog Four MKII, Kasi creates a sound world between experimental ambient, hypnotic textures, and raw, groove-driven techno.
In this conversation, she talks about improvisation, real-time interaction, unstable modulation, and why she treats sound as a living system — shaped by psychedelic experiences, abstract art, and organic movement.

Production & Camera: Romi Agel & Holger Wick / Sense Music & Media

Playlist:

1. - 4. ERICA SYNTHS HEXDRUMS 01 - 04 // MACHINA BRISTRONICA '25 // LØSTLVLS

I got to spend some quality time with the Hexdrums - it sounds really beefy and each voice has a tonne of sweet spots. The Hexdrums has loads of saturation available, is built to a high standard and feels very performative. This is the first of four videos.

Check out my samples on Bandcamp - loads of vintage and modern drum machines and more, all samples ethically-sourced and locally-grown here in the lab in Bristol, UK: https://lostlvls.bandcamp.com/

5. ERICA SYNTHS PERKONS HD-01 // MACHINA BRISTRONICA '25 // LØSTLVLS

The formidable Perkons HD-01 was available at Machina Bristronica - how could I resist? For my money the Perkons is the most 'jammable' and gratifying drum machine on the market, hands-down. The person using it before filming this session was dancing and really enjoying their time with it. Was a joy to witness!

6. MODOR DR-2 // MACHINA BRISTRONICA '25 // LØSTLVLS

The excellent DR-2 drum machine from Modor aka Marcel Belmans. Was a treat to finally meet Marcel and discuss his creations. In this video Marcel kindly demonstrated the DR-2 for us.

7. BODY SYNTHS METAL FETISHIST x2 // MACHINA BRISTRONICA '25 // LØSTLVLS

Been wanting to check this little weirdo out for some time - two is even better!

SOLAR 42 | Erica Synths PERKONS HD-01

video upload by ELTA music

"ELTA MUSIC - SOLAR 42F
Erica Synths - PERKONS HD-01
Gamechanger Audio - FX pedal

SOLAR 42 is a unique experimental electro-music instrument, an analogue microtonal ambient drone machine. It will inspire you to find a new and spontaneous approach to composing music.
The instrument is oriented for live performances, creating film soundtracks, theatre soundtracks, atmospheric sounds, microtonal and background music. The instrument was inspired by early electronic musical instruments of the 1920s and 1950s, notably Leo Theremin's «Harmonium» instrument, as well as science fiction film soundtracks."

Erica Synths x Hexinverter Mutant BD9 sound demo

video upload by Erica Synths

"Hexinverter’s BD9 is a modular take on the classic TR-909 kick, enhanced with voltage-controlled distortion and added flexibility. Its analog VCO delivers sine or square wave bassdrums, with pitch ranging from 30Hz to 240Hz and full CV control.

Timeline:
00:02 - Take 1 / Going through the controls of the Mutant BD9
01:31 - Take 2 / Jam with Perkons Voice
03:06 - Take 3 / Exploring the square ewave core with SUB
04:51 - Take 4 / Jam with Sample Drum
06:06 - Take 5 / Fully open Decay with SUB on, sent through the Black LPG, which is being triggered with extra triggers separate from the main bass drum trigger"

Perkons ONLY Jam

video upload by Ricky Tinez

"So it took me borrowing a 909 and being taught by John Tejada for me to finally use my Perkons by Erica Synths. This thing is dope! So I attempt to just jam with nothing but the Perokons and see how far I can get exploring its groove settings, parameter locks, using voice 2 for the kick instead of 1 and more."

Complete Techno + Dark Ambient palette: Perkons Voice deep dive demo

video upload by Dave Mech

"Here I'm showing the Perkons Voice eurorack module by Erica Synths which conveniently gives us access to all the wondrous Perkons HD-01 sounds but in 1/16th the size. Sure, it doesn't have the amazing sequencing capabilities but it does offer other interesting capabilities, like patch selection modulation and in general CV control over all parameters, which can yield beautiful results. And it's possible to get decay layers to up to 4 voices. So lots of drone and ambient sound source capabilities!

Erica Synths Introduces Perkons Voice Eurorack Module

video upload by Erica Synths

"Erica Synths Perkons Voice is a eurorack incarnation of the percussion voices from the PERKONS HD-01 Drum machine. Like on the drum machine, the module has hybrid architecture, featuring a digital sound engine followed by an analogue multi-mode filter and overdrive. Users can select among 13 sound generation algorithms and save up to 99 presets that can be recalled easily. Tune and Patch CV inputs are configurable for various CV settings and are tuned to 1V/oct. Module also features a 4-voice poly overlap mode and samples on the "Rompler" engine can be easily replaced.

Timeline:

00:00 - Take 1 / 2x Perkons Voices sequenced with Black Sequencer
00:48 - Take 2 / Scrolling through factory presets
01:52 - Take 3 / Sequencing patches with Black Sequencer
02:23 - Take 4 / Playing with 4-voice poly overlap mode
02:58 - Take 5 / Sequencing snare and adding various CV modulations
04:38 - Take 6 / Self generating patch with Perkons Voice, Modulator and Stereo FX
05:35 - Take 7 / Patches sequenced with Black Sequencer
06:22 - Take 8 / More 4-voice poly overlap exploration
08:08 - Take 9 / Patch with 3x Perkons Voices as sound sources
08:30 - Take 10 / 4x Cowbell grains. Setting decay to to max makes sample to loop
10:25 - Take 11 / Wall of Karplus. Mega drone with voice overlap triggered and modulated with Befall rampage"

Erica Synths Perkons HD-01

video upload by Tim Shoebridge

"Here's my personal take on this fascinating and rather exotic piece of hardware from Erica Synths. I've had it for a couple of months, I'm by no means an expert, but I thought I would share with you the way in which I am experimenting with Perkons and integrating it into my studio."

What's better than one Perkons? // Dual Erica Synths Perkons Jam

video upload by Dave Mech

"Courses, presets, samples and more at https://davemech.live/shop

Since I bought a white Perkons, I temporary have two Perkons in the studio before selling the blue one to a new happy owner. So I thought I'd make use of that situation and record a raw dual Perkons Jam. And I'll be damned, It's actually really fun to dual wield these! Enjoy this 160 bpm raw live performance.

Gear used:
2x Perkons
OTO BAM
Dreadbox Raindrops

OTO boum + Doctron IMC (from main out of mixer)

"Here's our little jam for Make Music Day using the Perkons HD-01 from Erica Synths, along with Elektron Octatrack and Analog Heat+FX. What music are you making?

In this video the Perkons is running into the Octatrack, which is live sampling and re-slicing the Perkons' audio. All audio is being processed by the Analog Heat+FX whilst adding a little reverb too."

Modor DR-2 tutorial Part 1: Getting started

video upload by Richard DeHove

"The Modor DR-2 is one of what I consider the 'Big Five' in the drum machine world. There's the DR-2, Perkons, Pulsar-23, Rtym MkII and the Alpha Base.

This is not a sound design video, nor do I go through the many sound models and parameter options, that's for later videos. This one is a guide to the DR-2's basic operations, although of course there's plenty of hits along the way. The intention is to explore the many functions of the DR-2 in an ongoing tutorial series.

I've admired this machine for a couple of years and am excited to have got this one on loan from Modor. So it was very cheeky of me to switch out all the knobs for big black grippy ones from Erica Synths, but, well, it just looked too sweet and clean and my Big Box of Knobs is always looking for opportunities.

Soundwise there is a limiter on the output just to avoid any surprises and my voice is damping the drum machine level whenever I speak, which should explain any volume fluctuations.
