Shades of fire | Twin Elektron Monomachine IDM
video upload by MIDERA
"What a foul mood I was in today. My daughter struggled to do the most basic math - I had thought she had overcome some of it, but alas, not so. Well, I handled it worse than she handled the math. Me, the adult, just couldn't do it. I exposed my frustration so quickly, she shut down. After that, we cancelled her violin lessons (she wanted to drop it) and we come to find that they make you stay for an extra 4 weeks because "it's a long-term relationship" (that they failed to disclose when we signed up. So we will lose $150 for that. Then - just general frustration at everything (little). Like the house being a mess, it's too small, there's too much to do. I just... found everything to be upset about.
At the end of the day, I profusely apologized to my daughter, but... I think it's my frustration/anger that she'll remember long from now, just like I remember my father's anger more than anything else. When I apologized - she just laughed and giggled... so I don't even know what to think, but I have to do better. Today was not good.
Well - Perhaps at the peak of my frustration is when I finally sat down and wrote this track. Now you know where my mind was when writing this.
Eventide Blackhole VST used for reverb.

TFE - The French Experience - Episode 1

"Roland S-1 ambient patterns & patches: https://www.albaecstasy.ro/roland-s1/
Profiting of a part-cloudy day in Nice (France) with an especially chosen setup for this trip: Roland S-1, Polyend Synth, Yamaha Seqtrak. I also have with the me the Uno Synth Pro X & Pro VS Mini - I hope will use them in a further video.
Recorded - as a trend would say: 'DAW-less setup' - directly on the Zoom LiveTrack L6 - amazing tool!"
Post classical w/ Piano & Music Easel : Deep Blue Wall 2025-07-14 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece for piano and @buchlausa Buchla Music Easel—post-classical textures where washed-out piano mingles with abstract electronics.
Piano (Yamaha CP-88): Two signals are recorded—a dry output and a second path drenched in deep reverb from a @HologramElectronics MICROCOSM.
Music Easel: Improvised abstract tones with its spring reverb engaged; the output runs through @ChaseBlissAudio LOSSY for additional coloration."

Covalence
video upload by davidryle
"Large format 5U modular synthesizer with the Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave.
Two passes. The first was the modular synth, and the second was the played lines on the keyboard. All sounds except the melodic part was recorded in real time from the modular.
Two Matrix Algorithmic Composer modules from Synthetic Sound Labs were used for the moving lines throughout. These were fed to a pair of SSL/Ian Fritz Thru-Zero oscillators. The outputs were mixed straight and also split to an Encore Electronics Frequency Shifter, MOTM 440 Filter and heavily modulated 73B Modcan Dual Delay. Further processing with the Empress reverb and the Dove Audio D501 filter.
The bass notes were generated by the STG Soundlabs Voltage Mini Store to a pair of STG Oscillators and a Dove Audio WF. The filters included the MegaOhmAudio MA20 and the Frequency Central System X LPF.
A Q960 sent the arpeggio sweep voltage to an SSL VCO through a Behringer DD400 digital delay.
A Ring Modulator patch on the Q169 Qxcillator ++ from Synthesizers.com was directed through an Oakley Sound Diode Super Ladder filter then through an SSL Digital Delay.
The S&H sounding patch was not a sample & hold at all. It was a combination of a Q960, West Coast Random Source, MosLab 901/904A and a MegaOhmAudio CdS through an Oakley VC State Variable Filter."

Shibasaki MOD - Tokyo set song #6
video upload by Arman Bohn
"My synths and device can be found here:
https://distropolisgoods.com/
Song #6 from my set at Shibasaki MOD in Tokyo, April, 2025.
Droning ...
The Dirtywave M8 is playing randomized, droning chords.
The Prismatic Spray MKii is providing some heavily filtered, low end chaos via two bytebeat algorithms (one left/one right).
I'm using the Phantasmal Force Micro MIDI controller as a "keyboard" to play and hold single notes on the MT32-pi (which is running a soundfont set to a electric piano instrument).
All of this is routed through the NTS-3 for some reverb."
Shibasaki MOD - Tokyo set song #5
video upload by Arman Bohn
"My synths and device can be found here:
https://distropolisgoods.com/
Song #5 from my set at Shibasaki MOD in Tokyo, April, 2025.
A short interlude.
The Phantasmal Force is sending four generative sequences to the MT-32 pi, triggering some sound fonts. It is also sending multiple CC LFOs to the NTS-3 to modulate the delay settings - creating a warbly "underwater" feel.
The Prismatic Spray MKii is droning on a nice spiral visual.
I'm playing GREAT CONJUNCTION with the Phantasmal Force as well - using a button in NOTE MODE and turning the knob to play notes within Mixolydian/C."
