Vermona Perfourmer MKII, Moog Mother-32, Digitakt | transcend

video upload by patchesinblue

"Hi! Hope you're doing well. I'm back with a jam and this time I have the Cirkon 2 doing most of the sequencing. I received the Cirklon sometime last year after a 4+ year wait but couldn't find the time to fully dive into it. Reviving an old composition (3 mother-32's at the time) and adding a few more voices seemed an exciting way to kick the tires on the Cirklon and revise the original piece. Both the Cirklon and Digitakt are running in their song modes, respectively. Everything is sequenced from the Cirklon, except the Digitakt. I've strayed into musical territory that I usually shy away from (and don't fully understand) but I enjoyed it nonetheless and I hope you enjoying listening too."

Meng Qi Wingie 2, Norns (Awake), Digitakt | run

video upload by patchesinblue

"@Meng Qi 's #Wingie 2 is one of the most deeply gratifying instruments i've interacted with in the last few years; it feels personal, intimate and experimental all at the same time. when i began sketching, i missed being able to add notes from a lower octave, while keeping most of the melodic content in the upper registers. so - i went out and got another Wingie 2. they make a beautiful pair together

for this piece, i tried to push the Wingie out side its usual familiar territory, and it responded very well. both Wingie's are receiving input from the monome norns awake synth; the black Wingie resonating an octave below the silver one, subtly, with a shorter decay time. i also added some color to the original sound from the wingie; the silver wingie is going through an electro-harmonix big muff guitar pedal (just off camera on the top). there's also an mxr dyna comp pedal (also slightly off camera) that is boosting the right-channel of the silver wingie.

there's also a norns shield (next to the silver Wingie), running an arp from Awake, tempo-linked to the standard black norns. ironically, the norns shield display went to sleep sometime before i started recording.

the expressive e touché is controlling the filter cut off of the norns awake synth. as the cut off changes, the wingie resonates accordingly.

lastly, there's digitakt for rhythm. yet another wonderful instrument that never fails to deliver.

this piece was a bit outside the usual for me, but so are the times we live in and everything i'm experiencing. i hope you enjoy listening."

morphagene, beads, arbhar | eurorack ambient | unexpected dream

video upload by patchesinblue

"'unexpected dream'

this might just be the shortest Eurorack ambient video here on YouTube.

a combination of textures from the mutable Instruments beads, the make noise morphagene and the instruo arbhar with rings playing a melodic line in a lower register

just like a dream that appears out of nowhere and then disappears just as vaguely, this piece is an abbreviation of a longer piece that i can't remember having either a tangible beginning or a decisive end

Meng Qi Wingie 2, teenage engineering Op-1 | sunlit stream

video upload by patchesinblue

"streams of water, lit by the sun. the Mengqi Wingie 2 continues to inspire, producing the most unexpected and wonderful of musical moments. the teenage engineering op-1 provides the original sound through an arpeggiated synth sequence, and the Wingie 2 resonates with beautiful sounds

thank you for listening.

Just friends, Monome ansible kria, beads, STO | exercise caution

video upload by patchesinblue

"exercise caution

an afternoon exercise with kria sequencing whimsical raps justfriends and the makenoise sto with sparks from mutable instruments beads.

at one point during the performance, my entire arm covered the frame while i was adjusting the filter cut-off on the whimsical raps three sisters, so i included some amazing clips of the sky that felt right for the music for that section.

Teletype and Just friends | it was practically magic

video upload by patchesinblue

"first time using i2c to have the Monome teletype speak to Whimsical Raps just friends. i started studying and got distracted

the MakeNoise mimeophon is there to preserve and repeat the history of what was said; occasionally; like little echoes of memories that surface suddenly, often blurring the lines between what was said and what was meant and understood

the er-301 adds grains of weariness from having to listen and remember

the Hologram Electronics microcosm creates much needed space to breathe

Thank you to vecteezy for their bird vectors that helped me created the animation"
