revisiting (h)ours: full synth performance (Prophet 10)

video upload by shookmusic

"Here is a full synth recording of a song of mine called '(h)ours). It first appeared on my album Spectrum a few years ago. The original was made on a DX7 and a Prophet 08. Vinyl Re-press of Spectrum is available in my shop: https://bit.ly/3ODtrEm ❤

Today I thought it would be nice to revisit this one on my Prophet 10, it's a really nice piece to perform I think and I should play it more often haha.

This time I play it very expressive and soft on the prophet 10 synthesizer, with an alternate simple beat i programmed. This song is very emotional for me and playing this really calms me.

Pad is from my Yamaha SY77
SSL Six for all inputs with some compression

I hope you all enjoy! much love all,

-Jasper"

Moog Model D Improvisation by Shook

Published on Dec 11, 2019 shookmusic

"I am working on a new way to perform live. I like this minimal approach, just one synth maybe some effects, a drum computer and maybe for some songs some backing tracks (because I won't be touring with a band yet).
What do you think?

No midi was used and no overdubs. Just one take.

The Model D re-issue has the benefit of modulating the filter cutoff with velocity for more expressive playing.

In the second part of the improvisation I got a little bit carried away, and it wen't to a more dark / funky direction.

Minimoog Model D + Juno 60 synth jam

Published on Dec 16, 2019 shookmusic

"I love the Moog Model D (reissue) for it's bass and leads.
Today it's joined with the classic Roland Juno 60 with classic chorus enabled. Later in the video the Moog Model D becomes the lead synth and I enabled the EHX Memoryman delay.

Drums were edited in post and some compression and Valhalla Vintage Verb was used. All synth parts were live unedited, no over dubs or midi used.

Thanks all for your lovely comments and support. Will try to keep you posted about my progress in live performing again with these little videos. You support means a lot to me. It is truly appreciated..! Much love, -J"

Polymoog 203A Synthesizer: A Sonic Exploration

Published on Dec 17, 2019 shookmusic

"The Polymoog 203A is such an inspiring instrument. I think it's a very mysterious synthesizer. This video is a personal 'sonic exploration'. I tried to capture how I would use it's sounds to create music.

Chapters
1. Beat 1 0:00
2. Strings 1 2:17
3. Sample And Hold 3:56
4. Beat 2 5:26
5. Strings 2 7:10

Notes:
Everything has been recorded using an Audient ASP880 pre-amp / Audient ID22 Audio interface.
Chapter 1 and 4 has an EHX Frequency Shifter enabled in it's signal chain for slow movement. Drums are (samples) from a Korg Minipops. In post the sound has been processed using Waves SSL Compressors and Valhalla Vintage Verb.

In almost all chapters I only have the VCF (voltage controlled filter) with it's own envelope generator enabled in the Polymoog's master gain controls. I did this because this way I can sculpt it's sound more to my liking. It's envelope generator is however monophonic, so there is 're-triggering' happening each time you play something polyphonic. You hear this 're-triggering' best in chapter 1. You could see this as a limitation, but I think it forces you to play more creatively.

Thanks all for your nice comments and support, it is truly appreciated..!
-Jasper"
