https://soundcloud.com/analoguekid-1/the-journey-to-sands-brook

This is just under 18 minutes long and is a live improv using just my Korg Volca keys and Nintendo Korg DS10 with FX pedal Boss ME50B to add chorus reverb and delay and resonance changes via the expression pedal.

IŽll take a listen when I get home from work - and I also have a track I made with the volcas to share, then (just needs finishing touches on the mix). Very Happy

This is really good stuff! You make the Volcas sound very dynamic. I myself have the issue of forgetting to take dynamics into account. I easily fall into the mode of just finding a volume and staying there. I have been doing better, but it is still hard for me. Here, you masterfully handle these instruments and take the listener on a journey into the cosmos.

If you're interested, this is a song that I recently made using the Volcas. Keep on jamming, man!

oh yes, I did - though I shortly thought about scrapping it again and not releasing it to the public, because a friend of mine commented on it by asking if I had listened to a lot of Depeche Mode lately (which I really donŽt)...
and now I hear it as well, the melody I used resembles "Enjoy The Silence" quite strongly >_<

anyways... since it wasnŽt intentional and itŽs not close enough to Depeche Mode to be considered a rip-off, IŽll still publish it on my SoundCloud.

here you go:

http://soundcloud.com/xenosapien/xenosapien-vienna-calling-xn06

made with 3x Korg Volca (Beats, Bass, Keys), an Electribe ES-1 and my M-Audio Venom Synth (for the melody).
only reverb, EQ, sidechain/compression and mixing added in the box afterwards, plus the ambient/crowdnoise and transition-samples.
all filter-sweeps etc. on the synths were done live while recording, all in one take.

I just took a listen to both of your tracks (and commented/followed/liked on SC), verrrry nice stuff, nice to see some sort of a sub-scene going on in this forum, even though you two guys are doing something quite different with it Smile

I will be in the studz in a few hours time so looking forward to hearing your track, thanks for giving mine a play and your nice comments, I am now following you on SC too so will look forward to more of your tracks when they happen Smile

Maybe the admin could move all our Volca related tracks etc. into a new thread dedicated to the Korg small form factor gear, inc. Kaosspads etc.

Some great tracks on there mate, lovely production skills and I wish I had the patience to program drum machines like that, its that aspect that stops me attempting anything like this, just cant be doing the laborious task of programing a drum track Smile
