Lo-Fi Electronica with Circuit, Tape Loop and OP-1 field | Stone Section 2026-03-31 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with Novation Circuit, tape loop, and OP-1 field. It is lo-fi electronica built from simple rhythm and synth.

The tape loop contains a one minute electric piano performance. It is played back with reverb from blueSky.

On the Circuit, rhythm patterns and harmony are looped. Reverb is added with MOOD MKII.

On the OP-1 field, a synth lead is performed. The signal is processed through monotron DELAY with delay and filtering, then through LOSSY with reverb and filtering."

"🔥 Experimental Dawless Techno Groovebox Jam | Custom Samples (Jaw Harp & PVC Pipes)

In this video I perform an experimental techno groovebox jam using unique custom samples like jaw harp and PVC pipe sounds, blended into a driving electronic groove.

This track is created using a fully dawless setup with two powerful grooveboxes:
🎛 Novation Circuit Tracks
🥁 Novation Circuit Rhythm

Both grooveboxes handle rhythmic and melodic elements, working together to create a layered and evolving experimental techno sound. The use of jaw harp and PVC pipe samples adds an organic, unusual texture that pushes this jam beyond traditional techno.

Everything is performed live in a DAWLESS workflow, with all sequencing done directly on the Circuit Tracks and Circuit Rhythm.
Final mastering was completed in Ableton Live to enhance clarity, punch, and overall balance.

Blue Monday/New Order (Circuit Tracks Revision)

video upload by Guinan

"Almost! It's another Monday, so what could be more apt than todays 1983 New Order classic, Blue Monday.

As per usual this is ALL Novation Circuit Tracks playing live from the audio outs direct into my Zoom L6 recorder. No extra synths/no effects/no extra edits.

This is a revision of a version I did about 12 months ago. There is a lot going on in this track so I've squeezed a bit extra out of the groovebox in using some short melodic samples in place of drum sounds on 3 pads.

I'd initially dug it out to get me started on an Ableton Move version of the track and with some polished up samples and a little bit of editing I thought it was worth a revision.

More details for synth nerds,

BPM 131
I originally programmed the top arpeggio line on the Circuit Tracks quickly realising I was going to run out of voices. I sampled the riff and stuck it on a pad and played it back as a pattern and saved myself a voice, I couldn't get a bass synth sound that would double up as the main synth and as 'Peter Hook'. Instead I played a short Spaghetti Western style bass guitar riff through a spring reverb in my best impression of Hooky and sampled it on the Circuit Rhythm. I then transferred this onto one of the drum sample pads and put it on Drum 4 as another pattern, finally there is a choir sample the band played on an old Emulator. I simply copied the same source they used ( Kraftwerk's track, 'Uranium') and made a loop on another one of the drum pads, turning it into a 3rd pattern for Drum 4."

Minimal Dub with Lo-fi Piano and Synth Loops | Cirrhosa 2025-12-26 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@NovationTV‬ Novation Circuit and a tape loop.
It is a minimal dub composition built from restrained synth and rhythm loops, layered with delay-soaked, lo-fi piano textures.

On the Novation Circuit, looped patterns are played back while synth pads are performed live on the pads. The output is processed with reverb using the ‪@strymon‬ blueSky.

The tape loop contains a recorded piano performance. The sound is brought in and out by manually adjusting the tape player’s volume. Through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII, delay is applied while micro-loop textures are generated, adding movement and depth."

Groove Is In The Heart/Deee-Lite (Circuit Tracks Version)

video upload by Guinan

"I watched ‪@smallplatesmusic‬ excellent video detailing the story behind the samples used in the very excellent 1990 track 'Groove Is In The Heart' by Deee-Lite and thought it warranted a Circuit Tracks version.

I cleared the decks this afternoon and got to work!

(Check out the highly recommended original video below)

James recreates many of his tracks using Koala software and I've taken some of his edits, sprinkled a few extra ones from the original sources and have shoehorned them into a Circuit Tracks arrangement.

Everything you hear was programmed into and played on a single Circuit Tracks with no additional effects or synths. Hopefully it shows what a great sample player/drum machine it can be! (probably not quite how Novation thought this machine would be used - but it kinda works!)

The only non-original sources are a couple of Linn drum samples to beef up the rhythm, some General MIDI 'scratching' samples and some finger clicking and verbal gymnastics from the man himself, ‪@smallplatesmusic‬

More details for synths nerds
BPM=122
No synths on this mate! Only samples!!
No 'butter' notes either..."

"Groove Is in the Heart": Sample Breakdown, stories, recreating Deee-Lite track in Koala Sampler

video upload by small plates music

"Built on Herbie Hancock’s "Bring Down the Birds" and Vernon Burch’s 'Get Up' but including some very unexpected, sound effects, sitcom snippets, and belly‑dancing records, Groove Is In The Heart has big hidden depths.

I'll dig into the samples and tell you the stories behind each one:

Miles Davis’s 'butter notes,'
How an innocent sounding sample is hiding one of the dirtiest of house divas
A tenuous link with Donald Trump
Is belly dancing Greek? And why do we care?

In the end I will drop the samples into Koala Sampler (on my iPhone) and try to recreate the track. Because yes, we have Deee Lite at home.

Perfect for fans of sample culture, music history, and anyone curious about how one of the most joyful dance tracks ever was crafted.

0:00 - Introduction Overview of 'Groove Is in the Heart'

0:42 - Herbie Hancock 'Bring Down The Birds'
Origins of the melodic bassline and guitar and the Blow-Up soundtrack. Why Miles Davis did (not) tell Herbie to lay off the butter

2:17 - Vernon Burch 'Get Up'.
Burch’s career and gospel recordings, with surprising Stevie Wonder cameo.

3:08 - Combining the Hancock and Burch samples using the Koala sampler.

3:39 - Imagine my surprise when this “Trumpet” is actually supposed to be a woman’s scream?

4:30 - Hateful Head Helen / Sweet Pssy Pauline, HIDDEN FILTH. This is the original sample btw- • Hateful head helen ACAPELLA

5:35 - Sitcom Sample (Green Acres) The “I-I-I-I” vocal clip comes from a 1960s sitcom theme tune. Watch Donald Trump at the 2005 Emmys performing the same theme tune.

7:33 – Belly Dance Record Sample Intro chant “We’re going to dance and have some fun” from Tomee and the Grecian Knights. Discussion of belly dancing trend and what the hell a Bosonk is meant to be.

9:22 – Latin Percussion by Ray Barretto, plus studio-made finger clicks.

9:49 – Rebuilding the Track in Koala- Live attempt.

11:07 – Closing Performance Final recreation of the track showing how the samples are layered together.'
