Ambient Electronica with Game Boy Advance and OP-1 field | Praise 2026-02-21 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"Ambient electronica featuring gentle synth tones, electric piano, and Game Boy sounds.
Created with Game Boy Advance, @teenageengineering OP-1 field, @YamahaSynthsOfficial CS01, and norns shield.
On the Game Boy Advance, sequences are programmed using Stepper. The sound runs through monotron DELAY, where delay is applied and the filter is manipulated in real time.
On the OP-1 field, a 32 bar synth harmony loop is played and processed through @ChaseBlissAudio GENERATION LOSS MKII and LOST+FOUND.
On the CS-01, I use a slow attack patch with the waveform set to PWM, performing while adjusting PWM speed and modulation.
On the norns shield, electric piano phrases are recorded into graintopia, processed granularly, and played back.
All devices share the same tempo, but no sync cables are used."

Experimental Modular Footwork with TENORI-ON | Roar 2026-02-14 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"An experimental footwork piece created with YAMAHA TENORI-ON and a modular synthesizer.
In the modular system, Plaits serves as the main oscillator, while MIDI triggers the Quad Function & Trigger Source.

Random 42-Step Phrases and Dissolving Layers | Monolithic System 2026-01-13 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"It is a minimal music work in which a randomly played 42-step phrase repeats, layers of sound gradually accumulate, and finally dissolve toward the end.
On the OP-1 field, a 42-step phrase is entered into the ENDLESS sequencer and played back with random variation. During the performance, the timbral envelope and filter effects are adjusted in real time.
On the Novation Circuit, a simple synth phrase is looped while filter and sound parameters are manipulated. The output is routed through @ChaseBlissAudio LOSSY, adding reverb and shaping the sound into a lo-fi texture. At certain moments, synth pads are also played live using the Circuit’s pads.
Toward the end of the track, the delay feedback on the OP-1 field is increased while deep reverb from the @strymon blueSky is applied, allowing the piece to fade out gradually."
