Elektron Digitakt - Expectations (a sleepytime jam)

Published on Apr 28, 2020 Payton Carter

"I've had a difficult time lately with creative slumps and what I perceive to be musical failures. Sometimes I'll look back on my older tracks and think I haven't made anything I like in months. I've gone through buying and selling some gear with the expectation that once I get [piece of gear], it will be all I need, and then I can start making real music. In the last year, I've bought and subsequently sold a MicroFreak, OP-Z, iPad, Model D, and DeepMind; the Circuit (my first hardware) is the only one I've kept. Obviously, it's not the gear.

I'm sure many of you are like me in that there are hundreds of unfinished tracks sitting on your hard drive. Especially lately, I feel like nothing I've made meets the imaginary expectations I set for a good track. The chord progression is weak, I can't find the right bass sound, there's not enough movement or tension... I end up abandoning the project, and the only thing I gain is a little more frustration. Making music hasn't really been enjoyable lately, which makes me really sad.

Yesterday I decided I need to step back and just finish a new song, with the understanding that it doesn't need to be the greatest thing in the world. I started on this track and tried to just push through, ignoring second guesses and distractions. I've always admired Will Wiesenfeld's work as Geotic, because his music just radiates emotion. It's joyful, it's heartbreaking, it's nostalgic—not afraid to wear its heart on its sleeve. I tried to capture a similar kind of feeling in this song. It's simple and not the most interesting track in the world, but it fills me with optimism. Whatever you create, it is good enough.

On another note, the lack of stereo sampling on the Digitakt is really bumming me out more than I thought it would."

iPad Apps with Hardware and Eurorack Synthesizers Livestream Tutorial

Published on Apr 28, 2020 Perfect Circuit

"Join us live on Tuesday 4/28/20 at 6PM PST as we go over some iPad iOS music apps that we think are fun and useful tools and how you can connect them to your hardware and eurorack synthesizer setup. We will be talking about sequencing iOS synths with hardware, using touch interface sequencers to control your hardware and even how to use the iPad as a digital mixer and effects unit with AUM and AUv3 plugins. In addition to talking about apps we will go over some of the hardware interfaces and controllers that are compatible with iPads to get them connected to your other gear.

Jam w/ Zen Delay, Korg NTS-1, Abyss, Minitaur, and Empress, Strymon, Meris pedals

Published on Apr 28, 2020 Jay Hosking

"A live, semi-improvised performance, all on hardware, and inspired by the pleasures of tape. Most of the sounds here have tape-like effects applied to them, and for much of the song, I'm "playing" the tape on the Zen Delay by Erica Synths (with Ninja Tune collaborating). The Zen Delay is a real joy to perform with.

I'm also nicely surprised by the Korg NTS-1. It was a fun project to build, and while it's only a single-oscillator synth, you can get a variety of sound out of it (including a sub oscillator), and it has a ton of good options like filter sweep, and also a great collection of effects. Quite a lot of bang for your buck!

Novation Launchpad Pro MkIII — Sequencing, mutes, scenes
Korg NTS-1 + Empress Effects Zoia — Melody
Dreadbox Abyss + Empress Effects Reverb + Strymon Ola + Meris Ottobit Jr. — Pad
Moog Minitaur + Meris Polymoon — Bass
Roland SH-01a + Strymon Deco + Erica Synths (with Ninja Tune) Zen Delay — Melody 2 and arp and delay weirdness

Written and performed within a 24-hour period, and uploaded as is, with only a little compression/limiting on the master.
