NOT NAMM: Health Club Music boomin

"Health Club Music's new analog bass drum box.

Boomin is based on the classic Roland TR-808 BassDrum with a twist. Now you can play massive bass kick drums with a drumstick, audio input signal or trigger in from a drum machine.

This Sample - "Boominvalley!" - is recorded with a Boomin triggered by a Roland TR-606 with a Juno 60 as accompaniment. Watch your speakers! You can't hear this bass with laptop speakers y'all. Health Club Music requires you to be responsible for your own bass health plan. Enjoy!

The features roll:
Sound In Jack (connect any audio signal or a trigger from a drum machine)
Tune In Jack (funky strange tune control for use with an expression pedal or volts in, NOT V/OCT)
Sound Out Jack
Sens. Knob (adjust the trigger in level)
Decay Knob (from a quick click to very long booooooms)
Tune Knob (from ultra sub-bass to high pitched pings)
Punch Knob (works together with tune knob to get some extra oomph)
Tone Knob (adjust the initial click from crackin to thumpin)
Volume Knob (Silent to Quiet to Loud to Distorted)"

See Health Club Music for more pics and audio.

NOT NAMM: Quick Cirklon test video

YouTube via sequentix
"A few patterns thrown in to see if I can capture the pretty lights accurately on video. Green looks a bit washed out.
Beat position sweep fades from bright green thru orange to red then off, on tri-colour LEDs.
LEDs below each track pulse with note output velocities controlling colour - green for max, and fading thru red again."

"I just got this sp12 turbo back from repairs and wanted to hook it up for the first time, syncing it to my Triton. I made some samples with my s612 and the Multimoog and a little track was born.

Live Techno Series #3 - MC-909 & Virus - Simon Stokes

YouTube via siedgey

"Hi ho folks!

At last, it is time once again for another live techno video! I've bought myself a shiny new digital camera, and today I set up my old setup, keeping it all hardware for sound mangling. The MC-909 is sequencing everything, with parts 1-8 playing from the Virus TI2 and parts 9-16 playing off the 909 itself. All of that is then running into the Behringer Tweakalizer for some more knob twiddling fun, then into the Alesis 3630 compressor to be squashed. Finally, it is recorded in Ableton Live.

It's a bit rough around the edges - a combination of too many sounds to tweak / mute and too few hands to do it with...so you'll have to excuse the arrangement. All comments are warmly appreciated..

Things have been going well recently - I was Djing with Matthias Tanzmann at New Year in Glasgow, which was excellent; Carl Cox has become my number one fan(!!), dropping tracks from the Rekluse EP all over the place including on his radio show twice; and I am in the process of signing up a load more tracks with some rather awesome labels...watch this space!

Thanks for all the support, it means a whole lot to me. For any bookings, please get in touch with me through the links below.

Cheers!
