Happy Holidays to everyone here on the Korg forums.
I finally could find some time to play my Kronos. To me, it is always fun to rediscover how incredible this machine is, so I decided to spend a few hours making a little video to briefly explain to a friend the main features and sound engines of the Kronos. Of course, all here know what they are, but I thought I would share it anyway.
Hope you all find some time to play your Kronos too during this time of the year !
The world around us is unpredictable. We balance each day with the practical and our faith.
And adapt as best we can. But we cannot predict the outcome and tomorrow.
I am the composer/performer of this original jazz/funk instrumental that was
inspired by the uncertainty.
All music tracks are created and performed on the Korg Kronos keyboard.
The distinctive sax is a 3rd party keyboard sample created by the
talented Grzegorz Marciak of Sounds of Planet.
Fight the uncertain future. Fight the Future advocates for the public good and conveys a rebellious, non conventional attitude.
I am the composer and author of this instrumental original that portrays the spirit of being non conventional .
100% composed and created on Kronos.
Thank you !
Greg
Greg , your track descriptions are awesome! Glad you brought back the original idea towards the end. It would've sounded too disconnected without, even for a rebel.
For me, a strong lead was missing. Something with a mean rebellious attitude. _________________ Sam

Thank you, Sam ! Reprises or transitioning back to main passages is important
I tried to touch on 'bad ass ' at 1:06/4;40 with simple distorted guitar parts.
I experimented with that vibe over the Arp string section but it didn't
mix well. My experience with mixing and my listeners, is to err on the side
of ' keeping it simple'.
The song has synth solos in the middle section, 3:45, where the crescendo builds.
And at the end at 4:53.
You are welcome to join my ' jury' on drafts. Thats the best time to work in improvements. Its always great to get constructive feedback anytime. _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

This is my very first solo/ambient/electronic release and is quite a departure from anything I have done before. The YouTube video below contains all 3 songs from the EP.
The sounds came mostly from my fledgling Eurorack (especially the 4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator) and my trusty Kronos. I also made extensive use of the Kronos effects engine. (The Kronos really is a top-notch multi-effects unit in its own right!)
