Blue Monday/New Order (edit) - Novation Circuit version

video upload by Guinan

"It's Monday so what could be more apt than todays Hacienda club classic, Blue Monday.
As per usual this is ALL Novation Circuit Tracks playing live from the headphone jack direct into my phone. No extra synths/no effects/no extra edits.

There is a lot going on in this track so I've squeezed a bit extra out of the groovebox in using some short melodic samples in place of drum sounds on 3 pads.

If people like this I'll do a '12" remix' version with the Novation Circuit Rhythm padding out the tracks. Let me know in the comments.

Details for synth nerds (extra video after the song);
I programmed the top arpeggio line on the Circuit Tracks quickly realising I was going to run out of voices. I sampled the riff and stuck it on a pad and played it back as a pattern and saved myself a voice,
I couldn't get a bass synth sound that would double up as the main synth and as Peter Hook. Instead I played a short twangy bass guitar (one of the old wooden ones with strings and stuff :P ) through a spring reverb in my best impression of Hooky and sampled it on the Circuit Rhythm. I then transferred this onto one of the drum sample pads and put it on Drum 4 as another pattern, finally there is a choir sample the band played on an old Emulator. I simply copied the same source they used ( ;) Google It!) and made a loop on another one of the drum pads, turning it into a 3rd pattern for Drum 4.

It all needs a bit more tweaking and arranging for the full version but this was sounding good so couldn't resist letting you have a listen."
