Minimal House with Modular Click Textures and SIRIN Bass | Weird Receipt 2025-12-16 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"This piece was created using @MoogSynthesizers SIRIN, @RossumElectroMusic Assimil8or, and Mutable Instruments Plaits.
It is a minimal house track built on an even four-on-the-floor kick, with fine-grained rhythmic details layered on top.
Both the modular system and the SIRIN are triggered via MIDI from Ableton.
On the Moog SIRIN, the bassline is performed while the filter cutoff is continuously adjusted to shape the tone.
The Assimil8or receives MIDI from LOCUTUS to generate rhythmic parts. Some sounds are modulated with CV from a Quad LFO, turning them into click-like textures.
Effects are occasionally applied using CLOUDS. The kick and clave are routed through separate outputs: the clave passes through @ChaseBlissAudio LOST+FOUND, the click sounds through MOOD MKII, and the kick through a Bass Driver DI.
The Plaits module plays harmonic elements, which are also occasionally processed through a CLOUDS clone. The output is routed through the @strymon blueSky to add reverb"
