DreamsOfWires - Mini Mod & Ring SM (with some Atlantis)

Published on Nov 24, 2016 DreamsOfWires

"This was a spur of the moment recording, but I was playing around with the Ring SM and in a 'scary soundtrack' kind of mood, so I turned on the cameras in case anyone might want to hear it. It was recorded in one take, no multi-tracking. All sounds are the Mini Mod and Ring SM, except the shrill notes that come in at 5:10; they are from the Intellijel Atlantis, which is also running through the Mini Mod's VCA and using the second Contour Generator envelope for volume. Ignore my messy patching, I was just changing things as I thought of it.

Whilst I was creating the sounds it reminded me of an old recording I made using the Moogerfooger Ring Modulator, so I added the Atlantis into the mix here to give it that Roland-esque sound element. I've added a link to that recording at the end of the video for those who haven't already seen it.

The Mini Mod really can sound huge, warm, and characterful. It seems difficult to make it sound bad.

And per today, I am very proud to announce, that for everyone, who is willing to purchase one of the rare machines, the day has come. Right in this moment, I opened the 'reserve' button on our website“

midierror Fundraising for Youth Music with new EP

midierror who has been featured here on MATRIXSYNTH numerous times, has a new fundraiser EP out to benefit Youth Music. The following are some details on the project:

"midierror has been going without alcohol for the whole of 2016 in order to raise money for Youth Music, who fund valuable workshops with youngsters who would otherwise have no access to musical expression. From organising, running and evaluating music workshops - he cannot emphasise enough the incredible impact that these music sessions can have on young peoples lives.

https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/midi-error

But he has raised a pitiful amount of money so far! So he decided to create an EP featuring four tracks which he's enjoyed making and playing live over the past year. Described as dark and sort of cinematic, he says they loosely based around the idea of the human race moving out into space. Expect to hear some electronica, jungle and idm..BUT if those aren’t to your taste there is a secret, more poppy bonus track for people the rest of you!

The EP has four tracks and a bonus chemical brothers cover, with Emma Harrop on vocals. Please name your own price (above £2), and give generously!"
