73 for the Sub 37

Published on Jun 21, 2019 Robust American Patches

"New Patches for the Sub 37. "73 for the 37" to be exact. Nearly every patch in this collection comes complete with modwheel, aftertouch and velocity assignments. These sounds are meant to be played and programmed to be extremely expressive. You get 64 patches + 9 more for free. The Sub 37 has a special place in our little studio and in our hearts here at Robust HQ. It was the first modern synth we acquired during this analogue synth renaissance that we find ourselves in."

Playlist:

1. 73 for the 37 Demo Song

This is a "one synth" song produced with the Moog Sub 37 and our first bank of patches for this mean little mono/duo. (73 for the 37) Many happy hours spent with this amazing tone machine. I managed to get 15 different patches into this 2 minute song. Recorded and mixed in Nuendo via the Audient ASP-880. We ended up with 18 tracks as one patch was double tracked and another was used to create some 3 note chords.

2. Moog Sub 37 Presets by Robust American Patches! (Part 1)
3. Moog Sub 37 Presets by Robust American Patches! (Part 2)

73 for the 37! No Talking. (All sounds in this demonstration were recorded into Nuendo at 24Bit/44Khz through an Audient ASP-880) Some of the lead sounds in this video have a subtle stereo echo in the mix for a little ambience. As always, the preset names are burnt into the video. We recommend listening on the best speakers you can muster as laptops simply do not reproduce the frequencies you need to hear.

(Vermona '14 & Arp Odyssey (MIDI)): "Playground Games"

Published on Jun 24, 2019 Kris Lennox

"MIDI sent to the Vermona '14 & Arp Odyssey. Vermona is playing the bass ostinato, with the Arp on melody duties. Three-voice in total i.e harnessing the duophonic nature of the Arp. Timbrally, no knob-twiddling on this one - just a straight-up tone. Melodically the Arp part should be florid when duophonic, but the sounding of one voice retriggers the envelope on the other voice. So, this piece was automatically converted from florid to first-species!

If anyone wants the MIDI files for this track to run through their own gear/play with, £15 seems fair. Just ping me an email (krislennoxpiano@gmail.com) and I'll get a paypal invoice off to you.

All best
Kris"

Sequential In The Spotlight Interview with LEVINSKY

You can find the interview on Sequential's website here.

"Levinsky is the Finnish harbinger of distinctly cinematic and dark synthwave. His style is regarded as unique in the Finnish scene, gaining a steady and organic base around the world. His fans know that he always has something to say with his music and that his themes are always close to his heart. He also interacts closely with his fans and truly values their support.

He is inspired by classic horror, thriller, and sci-fi movies as well as literature and is an ardent fan of classic Italian “giallo” movies such as Dario Argento’s Tenebre and Suspiria. Musically, he draws a lot of inspiration from great classic artists such as Kate Bush (whom he reportedly worships), Jean Michel Jarre, John Carpenter, Goblin, and Vangelis, while holding dear a handpicked selection of modern day acts such as Perturbator, Carpenter Brut, Zombi, and Daft Punk. He doesn’t shun drawing influences and musical growth from outside the genre and experiments with his sound accordingly.

He’s just finished his first full-length album Electra Complex, a follow-up to 2018’s EP Method to the Madness (available at Levinsky’s Bandcamp page and all global streaming services) which has gained an underground cult status in addition to critical acclaim by a number of synthwave blogs and sites globally.

We chatted with Levinsky about how he’s using the Prophet-6 in his music."
