PlantsSystem-S&H

video upload by plantssystem

"Their latest track, 'S&H' is inspired by the Sample & Hold (S&H) function of analog synthesizers. It 'holds' a continuous signal at set intervals, depicting changes like stepped voltage - this characteristic is expressed through the musical structure and groove.

The feeling is that a smooth flow locks for a moment, then transitions into the next change.
Accidental fluctuations coexist with regular step changes.
These intertwine, sprouting a unique rhythmic life form on the border between the inorganic and the organic.

No sampling is used, and the concept is entirely analog-inspired.
This track translates the essence of synth functionality into music from PlantsSystem unique perspective.

PlantsSystem-BlueMan

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem 'Blue Man' is a techno track with an immersive feel that sinks into the depths.
Intensely undulating synthesizer modulation distorts the space, creating an inorganic yet organic groove. The subsonic bass is low and heavy enough to shake your very core, emphasizing the tension of the entire track to the utmost.

A track that combines coolness and heat, suitable for both dance floors and headphones.

PlantsSystem-Duos&Prophet-5

video upload by plantssystem

"This video work captures the unpredictable changes in sound that occur when the analog circuits of a Sequential Prophet-5 and a Hikari Instruments Duos are feedback-connected and interfere with each other.
The Prophet-5's rich polyphonic sound stimulates the Duos's sharp circuit response, responding sensitively to even the slightest touches, creating an organic, tense acoustic space.
This experimental work captures, through both sound and video, the moment of feedback, which oscillates between control and rampage.

PlantsSystem-Prophet-5&PolySeq

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem performed live in the intimate space of a single room using the Prophet-5 and Poly-Seq.

Performer and audience shared the same space, and in a seamless environment, the Prophet-5's rich analog tone and the Poly-Seq's quietly pulsating sequences resonated with each other.

The act of performing itself blended into the living space, resulting in an intimate and immersive performance where the listener could experience the sound-creation process in its entirety.

PlantsSystem-Duos&PolySeq ChaosSync

video upload by plantssystem



"PlantsSystem performed using Hikari Instruments' Duos and Sequential's Poly-Sequencer, linked via ChaosSync.

The multiple sequencers interact and influence each other, generating music through a struggle between regularity and chance. The delicate yet sharp modulations of the Duos and the phrase changes made by the Poly-Sequencer overlap, keeping the development constantly fluid.

This experimental live performance, unique to PlantsSystem, showcases the process in which intention and chance emerge simultaneously."

PlantsSystem-PlantsEcho

video upload by plantssystem

"'PlantsEcho' by PlantsSystem is an organic electro track that quietly blends the smoothness of electronic sounds with the textures of natural objects.

The softly pulsating beat evokes the gentle vibrations of walking on earth, and the sound textures gently carry the feeling of wind and light.

Without a clear melody, the 'touch' of the sound resonates directly as emotion, bringing a gentle sense of calm to the listener's heart. While avoiding overstimulation, the track still has a strong, breathing groove, combining the comfort of breathing in nature with the refinement unique to electronic music.

"Combining the Rebirth RB-338 with SidStation Mod 2.0 (Mods), we've reimagined the classic SID sound for a modern era.

This hybrid track combines a distinctive retro feel with groovy acid lines, creating a chiptune-analog electro mix.

This track, 'SIDTRAX,' combines:

The gritty waveforms characteristic of the SID chip
Rebirth's signature TB-303/TR-808-inspired phrases
The multi-layered, aggressive synth textures provided by the Mods
to create a nostalgic yet dance-floor-friendly worldview."

PlantsSystem-Mazeppa(Franz Liszt Transcendental Etudes No. 4)

"This is a cover of Franz Liszt Transcendental Etudes No. 4, 'Mazeppa'.

Mazeppa is a masterpiece combining overwhelming technique and drama, left behind by Liszt, one of the most representative composers of 19th century Romanticism.

The energy and scale of this masterpiece are captured using PlantsSystem unique sound approach, making full use of the Prophet-5."

PlantsSystem-BlackPoint

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem 'BlackPoint' is a techno sound imbued with a pitch-black texture, constructed using Cyan/n and Rebirth. Swelling low frequencies, inorganic particles of noise, and sharp, cutting synth lines intertwine beneath the minimalist beat, creating a dark groove that draws you into the depths of darkness.
The simple yet powerfully propulsive rhythm creates a profound and tense soundscape, exquisitely blending the transparent texture of Cyan/n with the hard-edged analog feel of Rebirth. The unique atmosphere, a blend of cold and heat, paints a profound worldview throughout the track.

PlantsSystem-ALGOR05

video upload by plantssystem

"'ALGOR05' is an interactive composition by PlantsSystem. It was constructed by controlling the sound flow generated in real time using the composition tool 'M' via VNC operation on an iPod Touch.

The compact iPod Touch fits naturally on top of the Prophet-5, functioning as an interface where the boundaries between digital and analog, virtual and physical, intersect. The sound image born at the moment when the performer's control and the autonomy of the algorithm intersect is precise yet somehow evocative of organic breathing."

"[A New Dimension of Sonic Experience] Granular Looper 'cyan/n' Demo by PlantsSystem.

PlantsSystem demonstrated 'cyan/n' the revolutionary granular looper developed by sound designer Katsuhiro Chiba.

'cyan/n' is a powerful sound tool that freely manipulates short sound particles (granules) to reconstruct existing sound sources in unpredictable and organic ways. In this recording, PlantsSystem uses 'cyan/n' to create an improvised, experimental techno groove.

We explore its possibilities, from noisy, psychedelic textures to deep, ambient sounds."

PlantsSystem-U・O

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem latest track, 'U・O' is an experimental electronic piece created using the iOS app Sector. Rhythms and melodies constantly transform, like sound particles reconstructing within a circle. Amidst the flow of sound, where randomness and order intertwine, fragments of the sound of YMO flash back at unexpected moments—a nostalgia evoking memories of techno pop, yet simultaneously a futuristic surge of electronic sound. This track is a vivid demonstration by PlantsSystem of the poetry of sound born from the randomness of digital technology."

PlantsSystem-SpaceEcho

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem self-cover 'Space Echo' is an electronic track that reimagines a past work from a new perspective. Produced solely using Korg music production app 'Gadget' this track is characterized by the depth and floating feeling of sound born in a digital space.

While preserving the original's melody and structure, the track redesigns the rhythm and texture to create a new soundscape that seems to float in zero gravity.

The 'echoes' of reflective electronic sounds exude PlantsSystem's signature delicate sound creation and spirit of exploration."

PlantsSystem-JAM

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem 'JAM' is a groove track that revolves around a minimalist loop structure. The hard beats and repetitive organic samples woven using the MPC-2000 create a simple yet addictive rhythmic space. The aesthetics of blank space and impulsive repetition create a 'music of the moment' that rings out between them."
