Korg Volca performance Yarnbay Quartet

video upload by Veli-Matti Rautio

"Today Volca session with four Volcas. There were Bass, Beats, FM2 and Modular. Bass 16 steps self-made sequence, Beats also 16 steps self-made drum pattern and Modular 96 steps self-made sequence. FM2 lead playing with sound called Yarnbay with chorus and reverb. Korg microKONTROL midi keys to FM2. Roland Go: Mixer Pro analog mixing desk and Sony FDR-AX43A video camera. Composed, played, arranged and improvised by me in Studio Tupos upstairs livinroom's glass table 23.3.2026.Nr. 1539.

Sessio alkoi Volca Modularilla, tein siihen ensin kuusi 16 stepin sekvenssiä ja yhdistin ne. Sitten mukaan tuli Volca Bass, siihen tein simppelin 16 steppisen bassosekvenssin ja kolmantena tuli Beats, johon tein 16 steppisen rumpukuvion. Ajattelin ensin soittaa soolon Bassilla, mutta päätin ottaa mukaan neljänneksi FM2:n, se hoiteli soolon. Soolosoundina Yarnbay choruksen ja reverbin kera. Volca kvartetti oli kasassa ja eikun tekemään videota : ) Midikiippariksi FM2:lle otin Korg microKONTROL-kiipparin. Mukana myös Roland Go: Mixer Pro ja Sony FDR-AX43A. Yläkerran olkkarin lasipöydällä tämäkin esitys valmistui."

Dawless Techno Jam with Didgeridoo & PVC Pipes | Circuit Tracks + Rhythm

video upload by Underground Modulation

"🔥 Dawless Techno Groovebox Jam | Custom Samples (Didgeridoo & PVC Pipes)

In this video I perform a dawless techno groovebox jam built around custom samples and organic textures. This track combines electronic grooves with unusual sound sources like didgeridoo and PVC pipe samples, creating a unique and experimental techno atmosphere.

The setup features two powerful grooveboxes:
🎛 Novation Circuit Tracks
🥁 Novation Circuit Rhythm

Both grooveboxes handle rhythmic and melodic elements, working together in a seamless combo setup. The Circuit Rhythm brings character through custom sounds, blending organic tones with electronic beats for a distinctive underground techno vibe.

This is a fully DAWLESS performance — everything is sequenced and performed live on the hardware.
Final mastering is done in Ableton Live to enhance clarity and punch while preserving the raw live energy.

Buchla 259e Dubstep | 140 BPM

video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto

"Drum Kit:Alternative Bass Music (Sample Pack) https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
Recordings: https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
Don Buchla’s electronic instruments can be understood as musical tools and as environments for exploration. They allow performers to play in a physical and expressive way, yet they also invite a method of working that resembles research into the behavior of voltage and timbre.
Buchla did not follow the conventions of keyboard based instruments. Instead he created systems in which sound could be shaped through touch sensitive controls, complex modulation, and freely arranged signal paths. As a result, each patch becomes both a performance setup and a place to investigate how tones, noise sources, control voltages and modulation can interact within an electronic space."

Building a Serge BESTIA III panel with Serge Eurorack

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I am aware my Serge series is a bit of a niche in eurorack, but I feel it shouldn't be. They may seem complicated, or maybe too simple with the minimal grid panels and the lack of leds. Maybe even eh.. underwhelming compared to the competition. Also, many Serge videos focus on the raw voltage paths, so many of them just scream, tick and growl. This video is no exception. However, if you truly want to know what modular synthesis is about to enjoy absolute voltage freedom (a challenge by itself) a Serge system can teach you a LOT about the gear you already have - even when you never get to own single Serge module. As always, I am not trying to sell you anything, I am not an influencer and I no longer care (too much) about the latest hype modules anymore unless it blows me away. This is now an educational channel. It always was. And it's my duty - and privilege - to try and show you why Serge changed the way I patch. If you don't know what you're missing, you won't miss it. And if none of this appeals to you, that's also a valuable 'lession'. Your personal experience is all that matters - and the music you love most.
I am still a beginner, with Serge you may always know nothing between your previous and next patch. But if you're looking for magic, there's a lot of magic hiding behind those modest panels."

spectral pressure chamber - a thermo-dynamic simulation as a multi band compressor - au/vst for mac

video upload by copenhagennoiselab

"This is the first demo of the Spectral Pressure Chamber - a multi band compressor, that uses a thermo dynamic simulation as the analysis layer. A spectral analysis of the incoming audio splits it into energy for three chambers. The energy leaks. The chambers get over saturized with pressure. The stiffness of the walls decreases. The entropy increases.

While being able to work like a regular multiband compressor, it doesn't always act in the same controlled way. Sometimes it is sweet, sometimes it is full of artifacts. And it is insanely relaxing to watch the simulation visualized in the plugin in realtime.

It will be available at unusable.ai sometime in mid-april."

NE555 Counterless sequencer - 3: Radio buttons, transpose function, final assembly, and a demo video

video upload by organfairy

"The demo is in 3 parts: Manual mode 4:15, Sync mode 9:46, and external mode 14:07

'Radio buttons' is an expression used for a row of buttons where a button stays down when you press it. You press another button and the first one will pop up again while the other button stays down.
It is possible to make such a device with simple pushbutttons and a few logic gates instead of the complicated (and expensive) mechanical locking switches. This is what I explore in the beginning of this video - and it is actually exploring since I haven't used the concept before so I didn't know if it would actually work. I do know that the old Moog Taurus bass synthesizer used a similar idea for its preset buttons.

The music is also a kind of exploration project since I decided for the first time to (over)use the portamento function on my Elka X-30 organ in an arrangement. Apart from the organ I also use my Roland JV-35 for some of the parts"

Human voice or synth? | Birth of a Song #02

video upload by Deep Forest

"Today, I’m using the Haken Continuum to gently shape a voice that seems to come from nowhere…inspired by an eastern-flavored piano melody.Then I enhance it with harmonies played on the C15.Everything begins to merge, to breathe together.Something is happening…Is the magic starting to appear?"

Foltek Mescaline and POM 400 Part 2: Will it Techno?

video upload by Infin-D

"The patch here is basically the same as the last video, but I increased the tempo on the Mescaline trigger sequencer, tightened up the envelopes on the POM 400, and routed some modulation from the POM sample & hold to the Mescaline percussion voices. The sawtooth oscillator on the POM once again provides a dissonant, chirpy counterpoint.

All audio from the Mescaline is routed through the POM, gets some compression and reverb from the Zoom MS70 cdr+, and delay from the Korg NTS-1.

Recorded live on the Zoom L6, audio normalized in Audacity."

Foltek Mescaline and POM 400: Melodic Modular Magic

video upload by Infin-D

"The Folktek Mescaline lives up to its name, it reliably takes me to magical, trippy places. It's biggest weakness is the 'Channel' module, which generates rich polyphonic tones, but lacks envelope control, so basically it's a melodic drone. Enter the Teenage Engineering POM 400, with its dual envelope generators and VCA's. Now I can route the Mescaline voices through it, and triggered by its sequencer clock I can get nice snappy, plucky melodies- modular magic.

The Mescaline melodies and percussion are accompanied by the POM saw wave oscillator, outgoing audio gets some compression and reverb from the Zoom MS70 cdr+, and delay from the Korg NTS-1.

Recorded live on the Zoom L6, audio normalized in Audacity.
