Not my style of music, but I like it.  There’s some quality synth work in there for sure.  Are you using any DSI products in there?
“Deep Jungle” could use a guitar solo starting at around 2:28 IMHO...  8)


Good work!


Hey, thanks a lot for checking it out n the nice words...

yea, I have used the prophet 12 in there for sure... lots of other non dsi synths too, access virus, blofeld, loads of soft synths...

feel free to lay a guitar over it, I'd love to hear what that sounds like... if u want the unmixed lemme know... maybe we can make a 2.0 version :)

Sacred Synthesis,    The "saw bass" when it comes in ~ 3:30 I assume you triggered with your foot pedals?  I like the piece, especially the change ~ 3:30.  It seems somewhat different for you perhaps (meaning with the theme rhythm played throughout).

Thanks, Soundquest.  Yes, the bass was naturally played on the pedals, and the patch itself consisted of four oscillators of sawtooth and PWM tones tuned to 16' and 32' octaves, so it's very deep.  Plus, it's polyphonic.  The P'08 module is perfect for the purpose.

If the music seems a little different, that's because it's a composition, rather than an improvisation.  When I do a synthesizer improvisation, I tend to drift near ambient electronica territory, which is never my intention.  I like much better producing carefully designed compositions.

Here's my first widely accessible Rev2 piece ever. It's a classical (or film-music if you like) sounding microtonal piece, made after retuning the Rev2 to a Bohlen-Pierce scale. But don't let that scare you away, I like to think it's quite accessible, although feel free to disagree!

Throughout the piece I used preset P2 F1 (VeloStrings), in some measures I also used a homemade oboe-like patch (based on a heavily tweaked version of F4 P61 (Morning Woodwind). Layering the patches was done in ardour5. All sound is pure Rev2, no equalization or external effects (apart from volume normalization) have been applied.

Weirdly refreshing to hear this on such a hot day in Berlin! Like a glass of lemonade with a lizard in it! Very nice piece.

Hi all - I've just released my third installment of my Antronica series. Many of the tracks on Antronica 3 have been previewed in this forum already, as much of this album was recorded in a fit of Prophet 6 vs Prophet 5 frenzy etc. Loads of Sequential and DSI on this album. The aforementioned Prophets, plus Pro One and Evolver.

I'm only selling the album via my Patreon page, but I wanted to share a track with the forum. This is one of my earliest songs - maybe I was 15 when I wrote it, compared to 51 now! This version is mostly comprised of Prophet 6, with a touch of Prophet 5. There's some Mellotron M400 in here as well. The drum track switches between TR-808 and LinnDrum, both are owned by the guy with the Mellotron. It was pretty cool to use both drum boxes for this tune. Maybe the Linn is mixed a bit loud, but ah well! And yeah, cheesiest drum fills ever, but it had to be done.

Oh - the album was mastered with LANDR, by "robots with ears," or such. I tried out the "high intensity" setting at first, but the stereo spread suffered a bit, with anything panned left or right being over-squashed. What you're hearing here is "medium intensity" robot mastering.

Hope you enjoy this ancient track brought back to life...

I wanted to test out using all of my gear in a single Carpenter jam. They Live's score is Carpenter and Howarth showcasing their love of the blues. A perfect hymn for the downtrodden and forgotten working class. The entire piece was sequenced on the Tempest (which is sequencing the main bass line which is being MIDI'ed out to both the Prophet X (with a VS bass and Electric Finger Bass patch) and the Moog Sub 37. The Dobro, Sax and faux harmonica are all done on the Prophet X. I tried to pan a lot of the instruments through the stereo field to give a wider sound. The Prophet-6 is doing some huge pads and filter sweeps. Hope you enjoy and remember to put your sunglasses on!

Another tribute to another one of my favorite composers.

Alessandroni Alessandroni is a name that almost never gets mentioned when discussing classic composers and classic soundtracks. A multi-instrumentalist is best known as "the whistler" for Ennio Morricone's Spaghetti Western scores as well as the fuzzed out electric guitar (and classical nylon guitar) for them as well. Alessandroni's own scores venture into the experimental realm with loads of variety and methods far ahead of their time. You have classical string quartets mixed with fuzzed out buzzsaw guitars for Lady Frankenstein, polka beats and cheery harpsicord for The Mad Butcher and many others. His most powerful work comes in the form of a unique and powerful film: Killer Nun. Despite what the lurid title suggests it's actually an interested character study and comes highly recommended.

The score itself is as almost as bizarre as the film. In 1979 we have Alessandroni doing loops, samples being manipulated (via Gregorian chants played on a reel to reel player and having the tape moved around and slowed down by hand, funky fuzzed out wah guitar, slurping synth bleeps and bloops (done on either a Moog or ARP) and most shocking of all: Hip hop beats....on an analog drum machine (I'm guessing CR-78). This is 1979 we are talking about here!!!!!

Alessandroni was playing live concerts well past 90 years of age until he passed March of last year at the well lived age of 92.

Absolutely proud to put this track up. My best friend Allan R˙ppl and I haven't recorded anything in ages. This is something we are certainly going to redeem in the near future. Always thrilled to jam with this guy. He's a fantastic musician and an amazing friend. This one goes out to all the gut munchers out there!


Moog Sub 37 and Prophet X are the synths used.
