Setting Up...

video upload by No Lake

"Just a few words to let you know that I'm still here. I'm currently working on the new era of my music. It's heading in the direction I wanted it to go. I introduced you to the concept of Brussels School, which means everything and nothing, and I realize that it's ultimately something that suits me.

So what's next? I'll gradually introduce you to jams based on this concept. Rather long pieces that take the time to establish an atmosphere. Something absorbing, bewitching, with a hypnotic and almost insidious rhythm. Something along the lines of "Illusion" or "Hypnosis," which were two of the channel's top three hits. I take this as proof that I'm on the right path.

As explained three weeks ago, there will no longer be videos every week. They will arrive when they arrive. The long-term idea is to rework all these jams to create a real album centered around a single philosophy, but this is another story for later.

Wishing you a great day! See you soon.

Moog Subharmonicon + Boss DM101 // Analog does it better.

video upload by Dexba

"Moog, Roland: YES, please, more of THIS.
Blablabla limitations, blablabla the future.
I – DON'T – CARE. This sounds so good, it reminds me of the amazing Matriarch, which has the gorgeous delay built in, and that characterful Moog sound. Boy, I miss that keyboard.
Anyway, this is why I fiddle with hardware synthesizers: living these moments of bliss when everything aligns, the chord strikes perfectly and the BBD provide you with that nostalgia of times and places you've never visited. Lovely.
I hope you'll get to experience the same, both here watching this video and in your sonic explorations!"

Liminal Patch 010 : Dark Ambient Modular Exploration : 10 Minutes of Threshold Invocation

video upload by Botched Creative

"AETHERIS NEXUSis a 10-minute descent into modular tension, where structured performance collides with controlled unpredictability. A convergence of control and surrender. Droning analog oscillators stretch across a dark horizon. Sculpted noise writhes in the aether—each exhale a ghost of resonance. Randomized ostinatos emerge like faulty memories. Pulsing bass figures carve a path agnostic to meter—structured, but answerable only to their own internal logic.

Recorded live to multitrack, each voice was captured in real time—a fleeting convergence of structure and volatility. What emerged was part performance, part algorithmic drift: a mesh of voltages and reactive systems colliding in ways that can’t be precisely reentered.
An improvisation encoded in circuitry and instinct. Once aligned—now gone.

Liminal Patch 010 marks the end of Series One. Liminal Patches Series Two will return after a brief hiatus.

Confrontation / #analogsynthesizer session #soundscape #retrosound

"The idea here was to connect and play three mono Synthesizer together to achieve a big soundscape with different timbre…
I quickly realised a few problems:
Biggest issue is my ability to play in the first place 😆
Timming and velocity feel much better when not recording though

Well after several times trying to record a couple minutes that’s best i came up with before abounding this patch

Definitely will keep practising

DOZE - Ambient Modular #6 // Arbhar, Moog Subharmonicon

video upload by David Falcon

"doze
verb (uk /dəʊz/ us /doʊz/)
to have a short, light sleep from which you can easily wake up.

La sensación de esta semana de "vacaciones" es del cansancio acumulado, de niños enfermos y no encontrar un momento de desconexión.
Este tema es un poco un reflejo de ese sentimiento, un bucle interminable y pequeñas distracciones constantemente.

La parte técnica es bastante sencilla: una secuencia de tres notas en el Moog Subharmonicon que proceso en el modular. El Instruo Arbhar actúa como efecto granular y reverb, y los transientes del Subharmonicon trigean la captura en Arbhar. Uso bastante esporádico del Qubit Prism.
Es un tema para sentarse e intentar relajarse y frenar del ritmo frenético del día a día.
Gracias por escuchar.
David.

(eng)
The feeling of this "vacation" week is one of accumulated fatigue, sick children and not finding a moment to disconnect.
This track is a bit of a reflection of that feeling, an endless loop and constant little distractions.

The technical part it is quite simple: a sequence of three notes in the Moog Subharmonicon that I process in the modular. The Instruo Arbhar acts as a granular effect and reverb, and the Subharmonicon transients trigger the capture in Arbhar. Quite sporadic use of the Qubit Prism.

Sit back and relax from the stresses of life for a bit.
Thank you for listening.

"Speaking of Analog" | the album (electronic-ambient music)

video upload by No Lake

"I remastered and compiled my Moog Mother-32 and Subharmonicon jams to create a cohesive series composed almost entirely on these two machines. It was the success of these jams that motivated me to bring them together. Some of these pieces are unreleased. In this very special album, the Novation Summit is just there to add the finishing touch; like a support in the shadows. The Moogs are kings for this album. Take the time you need to enjoy it.

This album is available on every streaming service and feel free to ask for Bandcamp keys, I'll be very happy to offer them to you.

VAST - Ambient Modular #1 // Arbhar, Moog Subharmonicon, Octatrack, Matriarch and Guitar

video upload by David Falcon

"It's been a while since the last video...
While I have continued to do my musical experiments I have not been able to find the time to record and edit these videos. During this time I have sold a large part of my collection of pedals to keep those that I consider essential, or at least those that I enjoy the most. Which has led me to want to start exploring another vast world, which is that of modular synthesizers.

Since I smell that this is another drug worse than pedals, I have limited myself to a 62u Intellijel 'skiff'. I have a very clear and concise setup idea: a sampler (Arbhar) and modules that complement it, whether control (Pamelas's New Workout at the moment) and effects (for now I don't have any, I'm processing the sound in the Octatrack and Ableton). The idea is to be able to capture any sound from the studio in the Arbhar and use it as a starting point for granular synthesis.

In this particular clip I'm using a voice sample, another metallic percussion sample, and a Subharmonicon drone. I couldn't resist and added a lead on the Matriarch and acoustic guitar. It's probably the starting point of a more complete song but we'll see.

Thanks for being on the other side!"

Ambient w/ Moog Subharmonicon & OP-1 field | Gloam 2025-02-17

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Subharmonicon and ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field—a minimal ambient work where a loop of gentle harmonies overlaps with a synth performance.

On the Subharmonicon, I slow down the tempo significantly and extend the VCF and VCA attack and decay to ensure a gradual transition of sound. The output is routed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY, where filtering and effects are applied to achieve a lo-fi character.

The OP-1 field uses its built-in effects to apply deep reverb, and it is further processed with additional reverb and filtering through ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY. The reverb is set with an extended LENGTH."

"A piece created using the Moog Subharmonicon and a piano.

The Subharmonicon's tempo is set quite slow, and its output is routed through ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY. On the NIGHTSKY, I apply deep reverb and adjust the filter.

On the CP-88, I use the acoustic piano sound, applying deep built-in reverb while processing the tone into a lo-fi character with ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY."

I wanted to close the year with the best of myself. I don't think I've ever been so psychically invested in a jam. I am in love with both of these machines. Nothing less, nothing more.

I wish you all good times with your family and friends. Cheers everyone, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to all of you!

HWJ Weekend Challenge - Mushroom Challenge (3 boxes)

"Moog Tower of Doom - DFAM, Mother-32, and Subharmonicon

In any case, it was fun to have an occasion to use these synths again. Even dry they sounded pretty damn good. :-)"

Sequential Take 5, Moog Subharmonicon, Walrus Slöer - cinematic synth performance

video upload by Jay Hosking

"A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware.

I'm on a big kick right now in just playing the gear in front of me. Here, I brought out my favourite all-arounder, the Sequential Take 5, and paired it with the Moog Subharmonicon to create a little rhythm and arrangement. The Walrus Slöer adds reverb to the Subharmonicon; the Take 5's delay and reverb are both from its internal effects.

It's incredible how the Subharmonicon can quickly inspire some chords, and how the Take 5 can take you from an idea to a finished song with just a little tweaking.

Thanks for listening.

Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.
