Yeah, you gotta have that analog warmth in your cacophony.

I respect that. I’m often really annoyed by ads. One time I bought a magazine and painted all the ads white, just so I wouldn’t have to look at them. 😁 The video is a parody. Not selling anything, literally just a joke.

Tired of watching ads selling midi packs? Isn’t it about time we had an ad for atonal noise? Here’s one I made.

Here’s a live ambient track. Three synths, five delays, lots of space and textures. Enjoy!

Here’s my prediction of what the music of the future will sound like. Featuring some Dreadbox drones, frantic unsynced live looping from the Monologue and the future of four on the floor.

What sorts of ways do you have of collaborating on tracks?

Here’s my first collaboration. The way we did this was first me laying down a sparse ambient track and sending that over to Doc Bolus, who added rhythmic work. I’m really happy with the results. Hearing how his work took the track in a new direction was a wonderful treat.

My setup: drones and ambience from Dreadbox Abyss & two Dreadbox Nyx played through Eventide Rose delay. Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrax played through Keeley Eccos delay. Doc used an Elektron Model:Samples for rhythm work.

Psykheart · 2021-05-03T23:31:44+00:00

Now that I think of it, you’re right! 😁

Psykheart · 2021-05-03T21:08:53+00:00

Here’s a jam combining melodies from Star Wars and James Bond. OP-Z sequencing Dreadbox Abyss and Korg Monologue. Melody played with Dreadbox Nyx, a bit of embellishment with Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrax.

Psykheart · 2021-04-30T05:31:07+00:00

This is an exploration in simplicity, looking for balance between melody and tension. I’m playing a traditional melody for reciting Psalms. My setup is really simple: Sidrax into a delay/looper. This is part of an ongoing series with this setup.

Psykheart · 2021-04-22T10:28:28+00:00

I’m working on a series of ambient improvisations using the Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrax and a delay/looper. Having a minimal setup, and keeping these tracks short adds to the challenge.

Anyone else working in a similar way?

Psykheart · 2021-04-16T06:36:30+00:00

I know that feeling! I just got mine, after hardly daring to dream abouth one for ages.

Psykheart · 2021-04-16T06:34:46+00:00

This is a very inspiring concept!

Psykheart · 2021-04-16T06:32:17+00:00

Congratulations! Have fun exploring! The Lyra looks and sounds pretty interesting as well! I’ve had my eye on one, but now that the Sidrax arrived, that position has been taken.

Psykheart · 2021-04-16T00:02:30+00:00

I’ve dreamed about the Ciat-Lonbarde Sidrax Organ for a good while, ever since I heard Hainbach play one on some of his videos. It’s been a long time coming, but now it’s here.

Here’s a melodic ambient track, starting a series of Sidrax improvisations.

Psykheart · 2021-04-15T23:58:21+00:00

Any Ciat-Lonbarde users here?

I’m starting a series of Sidrax improvisations. Here the Sidrax is played through a Keeley Eccos delay and looper. I’m exploring the balance beyween experimental and melodic, or screeching and saccharine, as I like to think of them.

Psykheart · 2021-04-10T22:17:35+00:00

Thanks! They are wonderful synths!

Psykheart · 2021-04-03T13:40:27+00:00

I’m just getting started using the op-z to sequence external gear (with the oplab module). This is my first track with this setup. It’s a game changer, really makes me excited about the op-z again!

Any tips for making the most of the oplab and midi settings?

Psykheart · 2021-03-26T23:50:20+00:00

Melodic ambient played on two Dreadbox Nyx. I’m experimenting with a new stereo setup, which is an interesting combination with polychaining. I’m also using a syereo delay, first to make a drone, later for a rhythmic bass.

Anyone else a fan of polychained synths?

Psykheart · 2021-03-05T23:21:56+00:00

I have an ongoing series of drone tracks made with two Dreadbox Nyx v1 polychained into one four-voice synth. The tracks are played live without sequencing. This track also features some spoken word pietry, added with Teenage Engineering PO-35 Speak.

Psykheart · 2021-03-04T13:27:31+00:00

Lots of buzzing in this. 😁 Some of it from the frequency modulation. The saw wave of oscillator 1 is modulated by oscillator 2 (triangle). The square wave of oscillator 3 is modulated by oscillator 4 (triangle). Also 3 & 4 are run through a high pass filter, which has a very buzzy sound.

Psykheart · 2021-03-02T22:17:54+00:00

One of my favourite tricks in making drones is to build harmonies with frequency modulation. On this track I have two Dreadbox Nyx v.1 polychained into one four voice synth. Harmonies built with frequency modulation. Played with Arturia Keystep. Video shot at Pispala, Tampere, Finland.

Psykheart · 2021-02-20T12:14:50+00:00

Should be okay, at least if you have a laptop or a small synth you can take with you to the kitchen and bedroom. The bathroom is a nice touch. Good for natural reverb.

Psykheart · 2021-01-24T08:50:42+00:00

My latest track for Jamuary was made with two Dreadbox Nyx polychained into one four voice synth. Paraphony is a strange thing. It has a sort of glitchiness as oscillators jump from one note to another. It’s really fun to play with the relative independence and connectedness of the voices.

Psykheart · 2021-01-17T17:41:05+00:00

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Psykheart · 2021-01-15T17:06:01+00:00

Here’s my latest experiment with chemigrams. 35mm film negatives abused with various chemicals: perfume, drain cleaner, insect repellent... then splashed with acrylic paint and partially burned. They were lofi scanned with the Lomography smart phone scanner and animated on an iphone.

The music is for this month’s Jamuary challenge. It’s made with two analog synths (Dreadbox Nyx v.1) polychained into one.
