Jamuary #1 - Hopeful Beginnings

TheTechnobear

"Jamuary is an initiative encouraging everyone to create and share each day, with the hope that by repetition we can improve and grow.
So this year, Im going to see how many short pieces I can create during January.

The emphasis for me is going to be exploring what I have available, and finding new ways to use these instruments, with a short jam as a result of issue 'exploration'.
I'm also hoping more frequent recording/publishing will help me optimise this process a little bit.

Jam #1 - I've just got a Frap Tools USTA sequencer, so here I was exploring its features - lots to learn, but Im really enjoying it so far."

Can't Smile Without You by Joe McGinty

Here's something a little different. A cover of Barry Manilow's by Joe McGinty joemcgintymusic.com.

"Julian Velard on vocals: https://julianvelard.com/ He’s a super talented NYC pianist and songwriter.

The drum beat is from the Casio MT-52. Later in the song the MPC One does the 80s sounding drums...

The 'whistle' sound at the top is the Pro 3, and the main string pads are the OB-6. The high strings are the Blofeld. Vibes are from the Kurzweil K1000 and the electric piano is the Yamaha CP-25. Bass is the Korg MS-20 (original, not reissue). If you listen closely, you’ll hear vocoded vocals as it fades. It’s the new Arturia vocoder."

"Recorded in honor of the recent passing of Rita Houston and also dedicated to the memory of Mike McPadden.

Blip! & Shell Demo - 2nd Modular Per-Note Sample Project - Mark Steiner

Blip! & Shell Demo - 2nd Modular Per-Note Sample Project - Mark Steiner from Mark Steiner on Vimeo.

Seahorses & Shells - Spiral Fibonacci Math Sounds within Analog Modular Synthesis.

"Demo of the Blip! and Shell: incredible, genius analog modules made by Fricko.

Slowing building a collection of sample instruments made by sampling every note in a range to bring the beautiful tones of exotic modules and patching methods to others.

At first doing these for the Logic Pro Sampler but will expand to others. In a way that is reachable to have these as they unfold.

This demo starts with a sample instrument using the Blip! module and some Steiner modules, and then explores these modules with direct playing into the modular system. See fricko.home.blog for info about Fricko modules. They are brilliant.

More info and sample instrument demos to come…"
