Dr. Endo explores LIVEN Ambient Ø - #3

video upload by SONICWARE

"LIVEN Ambient Ø | Soundscape Synthesizer
https://sonicware.jp/pages/liven-ambient

It was raining yesterday, so I took the Ambient Ø outside and made music as the mood took me.
The ambient music that is created by mixing the surrounding environmental noises with the sound of the Ambient Ø captures and records the exact moment, so it's like a sound diary, which is fun.

Yu Endo

昨日は雨が降っていたので、Ambient Ø を外に持ち出して、気持ちの赴くままにつくってみました。
周囲の環境音とAmbient Ø の音が混ざり合って出来るアンビエントミュージックは、今その瞬間を切り取り記録するので、音の日記みたいで楽しかったです☺️🌿

"For sale is a very rare Fenix IID analog modular synthesizer. A very limited number of these were ever built and they are based on vactrols instead of ICs. It's a great sounding analog synth, unique tone made famous by users including Aphex Twin. Loads of patching possibilities in a compact package. Includes external power supply. Grab this while you can before it's gone!"

Elektron Monomachine soundscape - Slumbering sorrow

video upload by MIDERA

"Wow - I had no idea how bad the dust would look under the light… but it certainly looks bad. Well, guess it needs to be cleaned!

The Monomachine seems like an unlikely synth to use for an ambient soundtrack, but honestly, it sounds great.

I did try to load different sounds to use and switch between them, but the synth couldn’t handle that without strange glitching behavior (it can’t load different sounds fast enough using polyphonic voices).

Eventide Blackhole VST used for reverb."

"This is certainly a milestone release for the DiN label as it celebrates its 25th anniversary. Needless to say, this is quite an achievement for a niche, independent label that has relentlessly ploughed its own path for quarter of a century. Its catalogue and release schedule has been carefully curated over all these years by label boss Ian Boddy, who launched the imprint way back in the spring of 1999. It is perhaps a reflection of his own musical identity which, whilst grounded in the Berlin School of the 1970s, has continued to evolve and grow to cover ever widening areas of electronic music, where sub-genres can be mixed and matched at will.

There have been plenty of compilation albums released on the DiN label in the past, most notably the iNDEX sampler albums, of which there have been eight to date. These cover tracks from existing albums and are certainly a great showcase for the label. However, this double album is different, in that Boddy invited the majority of the musicians who have previously been released on the main DiN catalogue to compose new pieces. Spread across two discs, this amounts to 142 minutes of sublime, varied and thoroughly original music. Ranging from beautifully ambient to dark brooding soundscapes, via cinematic electronica through to old school Berlin School sequencer workouts, “25 Years of DiN” is a wonderful distillation of the DiN label.

Presented in a stunning six panel fold out Digipak double CD package with 8-page booklet featuring an essay by Neil Mason (Moonbuilding), this release is a must-have for collectors of the DiN labels output.

LOOPER and SYNTH // How Good Can It Be?

video upload by Woody Piano Shack

"BOSS RC-202 DESKTOP LOOPER combined with ARTURIA ASTROLAB emulations of ROLAND JUNO-6 is a fun combination indeed!
First steps with live looping with a synth, just using one track of the looper pedal today and the built-in cheezy drums that serve as a metronome.
