BURG - Slow Collider ( first AKAI force jam )


Published on Mar 1, 2020 ollilaboratories

"If you like my music you can find it here http://bit.ly/BurgMusic and also please consider supporting me at patreon for as little as 1 USD http://bit.ly/BurgPatreon

Track info:

So a new big item enters the studio, AKAI force. Main use case for this is to sequence some of my gear, such as the Novation peak plus serve as mixer/FX unit for my volcas. Also adding to this obviously it is filled with a lot of goodies and music production stuff to help move the BURG style into more complex chord progressions and layers of my musical making.

This is a first attempt, maybe not really 100% BURG style.. but it does indeed showcase the possibilities using the force in my workflow. All in all I have a good feeling about this purchase.

I hope you will enjoy it !

Gear used:
- AKAI force ( main drums, lo end bass, arps, vocal samples, mixer for my volcas )
- Sub37, lead sound, Strymon timeline and blue sky
- KORG volca keys and bass
- KORG monologue, sequenced from the force + FX from the digitone
- Novation peak, Pads ( sequenced by AKAI force )
- Avalon bassline 303 square style
- Modular, BIA, plonk for percussion
- elektron digitakt, percussion and chord stabs
- Drumbrute impact, extra HHs and FM drum

All recorded down on 2 track, Zoom H5

Track info:

I have been away from my gear for a long long time, I am still working on getting back into the game. When I am lacking inspiration I always try and break things down into lesser components.. like on this jam where i just use the Digitakt and the two volcas.

I didn't want to make percussion on the digitakt, the idea on this one is to try and explore how it can be used as a synth while jamming on the volcas. I am playing the bass sound + some simple stabs and sequence style sounds on it. Pretty fun setup, and really nice compact workflow .. eg easy to reach between the volcas and the digitakt controls.

Also, there are some errors in the track, but i decided to keep the song as is.. even though i had takes with no errors this one had the best overall feeling to it. It is live, straight to 2 track as usual :)

Gear used:

- Elektron Digitakt
- Elektron Digitone ( no sounds used, FX + sequencer for the volca bass )
- KORG volca keys + Zoom ms-70 CDR ( ICE delay and particle reverb )
- KORG volca bass + FX delay/reverb from the digitone
- Zoom H5 recorder

BURG - Fontenay Escape (Moog Subsequent 37 vs Strymon)

Track info:

Getting back on track after some time away from the studio, best recipe is to scale things down and focus on just one instrument. Today the Moog Subsequent gets a rundown, a moody laid back tune that that popped up straight off the bat when i turned the sub37 on.

All you hear in the track is the subsequent 37, with bass loop from the same pre-recorded into the EHX 720 stereo looper which kicks in halfway through the track. FX on duty is ICE delay algorithm on the timeline, plus a modulated room reverb in the bluesky.

The sub37 Filter envelopes are set to looping/latched, so the synth is in latch mode all through the track, forcing me to adapt my playing on the keyboards to ensure proper demarcation of the single and duo mode (set to low note prio) when alternating between one and two keys pressed.

This playing technique give a very wide palette with just the one sound, no need to swap patches, just play two notes for more mellow melodies, alternate to one key mono style for that larger 2VCO sound.

Gear Used:
- Moog Subsequent 37
- Strymon Timeline

#eurorack #moogmusic #tb303

BURG is back with a new track! :) This time I wanted to make a bigger sounding song than the recent strymon session in a slightly higher tempo (117 bpm) but trying to keep the mood very minimal, e.g not overusing the instruments and overlapping too much but still keep the main vibe. Possibly that this one could fit during an early morning dancefloor? :D

There are a lot of things going on in this track.. Main sounds are, bass from the KORG volca bass + the Avalon Bassline driving the tune with percussion from the digitakt and modular + some hihats and snare from the TR-8s. A lot of random sequencing and shorter than 16 step sequences helps to build variation in a tune that else could have ended up too static.

- Moog Subsequent 37

Strymon Volante vs Elektron Digitone

#Digitone #StrymonVolante #StrymonBluesky

Ever since the digitone keys was released I have been a extremely intrigued by using the digitone as a normal synth not using the elektron style sequencing.. adding some Strymon love to the mix while giving this a shot felt like the right thing to do. :) Reface CP is just acting as a MIDI keyboard.

Gear used: Elektron Digitone (no internal FX) / Reface CP MIDI keyboard
Strymon Volante, Drum style delay + Strymon Blue Sky Long Room Shimmer.

Strymon volante vs Avalon Bassline


Published on Jun 7, 2019 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

#tb303 #strymon #refaceCP

This is not a demo or a showcase of the Strymon volante in any way, this is just me noodling around after a long hiatus trying to get back on track due to severe creative block. I have had zero inspiration lately.. so I needed to dial things back and work with a minimal setup to break the ice.

The 303 square bass is a very simple 8 step sequence, I wanted to make it feel bigger and more complex. So I used the "tape heads" in the volante to add/build up the track in a subtle way.

Half way through the track, I turn on a pre recorded loop (reface CP in reverse) on the 720 when I do the melody style editing on the Avalon.

Gear used:

* 303 square bass, Avalon bassline, through the Strymon volante (magnetic drum)
* Yamaha Reface CP, Rhodes piano, Rd1, 720 looper, Strymon blue sky (modulated room)
-- FX in reface CP, slight tremolo and a long analogue delay

All is mixed on a behringer 1002B, recorded straight into the Zoom H5.
-- Post processing, compressor and limiter to balance things out a bit.

I hope you will enjoy this one.

- INFO

“The Silent Earth (end credits)” is the first single from the upcoming BURG album "The Silent Earth."

When I started writing the new album in 2018, it slowly turned into an imaginary soundtrack that began telling the tales of a silent earth, long lost friends and family, and a planet scorched deeply by the chaos it has been subjected to.

The album is heavily influenced by early 70's and 80's sci-fi movies, from back in the day when the stories were slower and took longer time to tell because they were important to the director, and set the foundation and style of the genre.

One of the missing pieces when the album got close to completion was the last track, the one that plays at the end of the movie while the end credits are rolling, the track that gives the listener a slight feeling of hope from all the despair.

I paired up with I Speak Machine for a collaboration over at their Patreon, Tara Busch lending her unique voice and aesthetics to the title track. The final result is a blend of I Speak Machine and BURG in the best way imaginable, a dystopian tune with a small shimmer of hope.

I am releasing a vinyl single with “The Silent Earth (end credits)” as the A-side. The track on the B-side, “The Quiet Earth” is exclusive to the single. The single is limited to 200 copies only, and is a special long play 7" 33rpm blue colored vinyl.

The single is available for pre-order now, the first 50 at a special discounted price.

#ms20 #KORGmonologue #eurorack

Sorry for the long silence, I have been working hard on finalising a future release.. this track is the final puzzle. Stay tuned for more soon :)

This track really revolves around the ms-20 and monologue, but there are so many small layers and bits all around the place that helps to build a foundation for the melody to rest on. The eurorack takes care of some advanced percussion, noise tools (white noise hhs), plonk for toms, BIA for some metal style percussion. Braids and Rings does some random sequences with washes of clouds and shimmer reverbs.. small textures to help fill the small gaps inbetween the beats.

TR-8S does 707 kick and snare plus some simpler hihats, bass from the volca bass sequenced from digitone. Avalon does what is does best, square melodies adding some delay FX from the analog four.

All in all it feels very uptempo, but only clocking in at 99bpm.. :)

I hope you will enjoy this one!

Peace // BURG

BURG - desynchronosis (eurorack, plonk, ms-20)


Published on Feb 2, 2019 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

#plonk #intellijel #ms20

This track is all about the modular with a twist of ms-20. I wanted to experiment a bit with the new Plonk and 1U Steppy that i added recently to the rack. This thing sounds fabulous, great module that has a lot of use cases.. not just rhytmic but also very musical.

Modular sound sources:

- Plonk - intro bass sound / Eloquencer
- Braids - intro 5 step sequence / qubit Octone
- MI Rings into uClouds - weird spacy melodies / Eloquencer
- MI Peaks - kick and snare / Eloquencer
- BIA - additional percussion / Steppy
- Tides (sheep fw) - Second wavetable bass sound / Eloquencer
- 3x A111-3 - chord stabs / uO_C Chords in Harrington 1200 mode + Eloquencer

I use the planar2 joystick to adjust the Ripples filter for the Braids sequence, and it also controls the wavetable morphing on the Tides/Sheep bass sound. Tetrapad is also controlling the Tides/Sheep bass sound for some added performance stuff.

A lot of modulation is happening in the Braids, Rings, Tides BIA.. PAM is the main source plus some gates from the Intellijel Steppy.

Modular Grid Links:

Main rack: https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/v...
Control rack: https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/v...

FX on modular rack:

- Strymon Timeline
- Keeley Caverns
- Presonus Plate reverb (in mixer)

FX on ms-20

- Strymon el Capistan (not visible in video)

As you might already know, the other day I made a new track, with some 707 beats, a bit more laidback and relaxed but with a lot of groove.

So... the story is, one my my patrons, Dragan said "At the track end I wished there was a "periorbital dark circles part 2". Like this story has some grand events yet untold... which if accompanied with a stomping 4 on the floor could rock the universe"

Well.. Dragan, here it is, Enjoy! :D

ps, there is some humming noise coming from the eventide space plus a helluvalot of low end bass from the vBass (need to fix that bass for a future release) .. so, watch your sub-woofers, this one is crankin it :D

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

#eurorack #volca #elektron #AvalonBassline

I have introduced some new gear lately in the studio, my #intellijel 84HP has been upgraded to a 104HP, plus that the old monologue is back. I wanted to make a little bit bigger session to balance the #BURG1K session i have been doing for the past few weeks. :)

Track started out experimenting with the uO_C, using it in harrington 1200 with the 3x A111-3 VCOs from doepfer. Very fun to finally be able to make some chords in the modular, this is one of the reasons I wanted to get a bigger case.

Also, the BIA is doing percussion, Rings is doing.. well what rings does plus the MI tides (with sheep fw) doing some wavetable action. Great fun patch, with a lot of modulation going on.

Also new is the digitone, but it is not really doing much .. just sequencing the vBass (low end) plus some FX processing for the korg vKeys.

Tricking out the monologues as a 2xVCO main lead sound on this one BURG style, as you can hear the filter is not really ms-20.. but it is close enough. Paired with the strymon el capistan it gets that nice tape style vibe.

TR8s on 707 drums + some extra percussion from the digitakt, and the avalon bassline, well, does a bassline :)

I hope you will enjoy this one!

BURG1k Synth Kit Setup - Session Six (volca bass, monologue)


Published on Dec 21, 2018 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

!! As a patreon you will get access to making of videos of all the BURG1K sessions and more !!

#BURG1K session 6 - #KORGmonologue #volca - ambient landscapes

On this second track using the monologue I wanted to explore some more ambient soundscapes, dial the beats back and mainly work on getting a good feeling for the monologue and how it performs in the workflow. Also, letting the volca bass show its low end capabilities.. oh my does it rumble. You have to (with very big emphasis) listen to the track in proper headphones or speakers, else you will miss out on lots of the bass information.

The LFO is working the filter in the vBass, and also with the attack it bubbles pretty wildly, so there is a fair bit of envelope clicks here and there in the volca when notes come in, this is expected.

I have two patches stored in the monologue, standard vanilla 2x sawtooth + LFO on pitch to give it a slight vibrato. Only difference between the two is that the second one has VCO1 detuned a fifth.

The monologue is very easy to work with during the track, and this is one of the most important things when having a limited setup, e.g make sure to change the sounds often, work the controls to help give the tune some variation.

The looper replays a simple pre recorded monologue melody, which is then sent through the same FX.

I hope you will enjoy this one!

BURG1k Synth Kit Setup - Session Five (volca, monologue, drumbrute impact)

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

#BURG1K session 5 - #KORGmonologue #DrumBruteImpact #volca - upbeat and groovy, with some looper action through the monologue.

Adding the KORG monologue to the BURG1K setup really lifts it to the next level, the sequencer with the built in automation and parameter locks is really versatile.

I wanted to showcase on this track some sequencer automation while using the 720 stereo looper to play back pre recorded KORG volca key drones through external audio in on the monologue. This adds some extra sound design capabilities to any synth out there with ext audio in.. just pre record anything into the looper and have that playback over the sequence, pretty cool!

Automation used in the monologue:

- VCO2 octave, toggle
- VCO2 waveform, toggle
- ENV decay (subtle movements)

Adding to this i also use one LFO to control the filter in the monologue, the LFO is running free.

I hope you like this one, BoooM!

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

#BURG1K session 4 - #volca #ehx720 #ms70cdr - this time a bit more ambient and laid back. I wanted to showcase how a looper can be used by just creating a little simple loop to glue together the spaces and silence in a more ambient track.

The looper has a really short simple three note melody structure recorded with the vBass.

The Volca Bass (and the looper) has in the ms70 a fifth / ICE delay algorithm which i think is based on one of the strymon timeline sounds. It is excellent for cheating a bit, e.g creating chord like structures with single note melodies.

Volca Keys does two parts, intro solo sounds plus a sequence in the second half of the track synched with the vBass.

The signal is a little hot at times, still mixing in the headphones so apologies for that :)

BURG1k Synth Kit Setup - Session Three #volca #DrumBruteImpact #ehx720 #ms70CDR


Published on Nov 27, 2018 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/ and https://www.patreon.com/theBURG

This is the Third video in my #BURG1K series and also inspirational video for the upcoming #BURG1KChallenge - stay tuned for this :)

In this one I am introducing the Electro Harmonix 720 stereo looper pedal and the Behringer 1002B mixer, yeay, stereo sound!! :)

Main focus and idea is around building the track and its layers on the 720 stereo looper. Volca Keys being the only instrument this creates a little bif of a challenge so I am using the majority of the sound modes in the unit.

Also, the ms-70 CDR "Filter PP delay" is playing a big part in this track, there is NO resonance / peak on the vKeys itself, all filter modulation is done in the zoom pedal. It is extremely powerful when it comes to creative sound design.

The ms-70 for the #DrumBruteImpact also provides some filtered delay action, but a bit more sensible and pulled back using the algorithm "Filter Dly".

Using the looper is great fun, expect to see it in more videos going forward.

Silence - BURG feat. Anda Volley


Published on Nov 15, 2018 ollilaboratories

"BURG featuring Anda Volley - Silence by Johan Baeckstrom.

My good very friend Johan asked me if I wanted to do a remix of one of the new tracks on his single silence. I told him, only on one condition, that i get full on free artistic freedom. He gave me a big blue thumbs up (on fb messenger) and it was a deal. :D

I wanted to make something really special on this one, not just work instrumental with some vocal cuts from the track. I got in contact with the super talented multi artist Anda Volley and asked her to interpret the lyrics as spoken word .. then based on her interpretation, her mood and feeling this piece of music came to life. We are really happy with the result, i hope that you all will enjoy it too!!
