Monomachine, Octatrack, El Capistan techno demo - SCO

Published on Aug 17, 2014 josker

"One of the first arrangements with the Monomachine in the house. A four-to-the-floor affair, which is fairly rare for me.

It's not polished, but gives a nice demo of what to expect from the two machines.

Octatrack handles all percussion, and a few mangled samples (a pad and a pitched-down vocal sample.

The Monomachine handles all melodies, and is routed to a Thru machine in Octatrack, complete with compression.

The El Capistan does some slight effecting during the whole song, gets center stage in the end.

Recorded with Ableton live, with some compression, EQ’ing and limiting.

The Elektron machines go together so well, it's ridiculous what you can do with the two."

premonitions – Monomachine, Octatrack, Qunexus

"Original song. I think it's a fairly nice demonstration of the lusher sides of the Monomachine.

The Monomachine handles all of the synth sounds, the OT acts as a drum machine (well, there's one electric piano sample playing a small riff around the three minute mark)."

Published on Oct 30, 2015 RolandChannel

"Nick Rhodes knows a great synthesizer when he plays one. In this interview, he reveals how Roland gear has always played a big part in the Duran Duran sound, from the JUPITER-4 used on Rio right through to the new JD-XA analog/digital crossover synth powering their Paper Gods world tour. 'I’m very excited about it,” he says of the latter, “because it can do something that no other synthesizer can do…'"

Sonic Memoirs of a Ghost Hunter

Follow-up to this post. Sonic Memoirs of a Ghost Hunter featuring the Evaton Technologies RF Nomad is now available. The Moog Sub 37, Moogerfoogers and Novation Ultranova were also used. Embed with link above; details below.

"Combining music with an interest in the paranormal, Sonic Memoirs is an album (the 1st in a series) that documents some of my actual paranormal investigations via synthesis.

After 20 years of ghost hunting research & field experience, I find myself rewarded with paranormal evidence found on stacks of video tapes, countless photos, as well as EVP (electronic voice phenomena) recordings. The stories I can share can fill more than a few dark & stormy evenings of friends gathered in a candlelit room. Though I'm writing a book outlining my investigations, I'm finding the process to be slower than anticipated. This being my 20 year anniversary as a ghost hunter, I decided to think more creatively, and as a musician, relay some of my experiences through music. Specifically... synthesis.

All of these tracks are created using analog and digital synthesizers. The majority of the sounds created are made using a eurorack modular synthesizer, though synths like the Moog Sub 37, and the Novation Ultranova, as well as Moogerfooger effects make appearances from time to time as well. No samples were used, and all tracks were performed in one take with no overdubs.

These are not EDM tracks. They are instead artistic soundscapes intended to capture the vibe of how some of my investigations felt while in the moment. Other tracks are intended to give you the essence of what it is like to perform some of the duties of a ghost hunter post & pre investigation.

Each track has a brief description of the investigation or investigative process found below the track outside of this playlist. After listening to the tracks, for the full intended experience, I highly recommend reading these.

The ghost phenomenon is very real. To anyone who does not believe - that's great! After all, skeptics make the best ghost hunters. All you need do is begin the journey with a serious demeanor, and review your findings thoroughly. You will reach a point where you cannot deny the mounting anomalies you encounter as simply coincidence.

Happy Halloween, and Safe Hunting - VDM"
