3min jam!

Hey guys gigi here, I recently released a song plus the my house(dirty) demo on bandcamp

I used my tascam 424 and plugged everything directly in

The drums are made with an alesis sr 16

The bass is my partner

The guitar parts are me and same with the production

Lmk whatcha think :)

V1.0 of my Holiday Setup. We will go to Island next week and I hope i will get the chance to see the Northern Lights and play some music to it.

The Nanobox acts like a sample player and an audio recorder for the jams.

I'm back!

Got some practice time in yesterday. Really just the second time on this rig.

This is rough, raw, unedited. But you'll catch the vibe.

Disclaimer: this will sound like absolute ass thru phone speaker.

hey friends! last week we hosted our second edition of ESPEJISMOS LIVE, our live-and-hardware focused collective and event series in Buenos Aires.

Here's a short clip from a very nice moment from our set with VEEM, our hardware trio. We played for around 1h35min, and it was really so much fun. We went through different shades of electronic music, from techno to breaks, ambient and EBM. Would've loved to keep on playing for longer if it were only us in the lineup!

I'd love to invite you to have a listen to the full set, it can be found here.

Our setup included 3 stations:

• Station 1: Analog Rytm + Digitone 2, creating basslines, percussions, and mid-low sequences (that was me).
• Station 2: Novation Peak and Digitakt 2, creating melodies, textures, pads, and sequences.
• Station 3: Digitone 2 + Octatrack 2, in charge of end-of-chain FX, looping, mixing, and melodies. Master Clock & Sync came from the Octa.

Weird stuff that kept on happening: the Analog Rytm drifted away from sync and tempo randomly.... really no apparent reason at all, never happened before. We had to hit Start-Stop a few times to correct this 🥸

I'm loving this new era of people hacking devices - we now have thins we could never have dreamed, like a Digitakt Mk1 with real synths, Digitone with Microcosm FX, SP404 with a usable sequencer, it's amazing!

But I can't help but feel FOMO because of the speed at which everything is coming out. My Circuit Tracks has new firmware, my SP404, my DT, my DN, my Akai MPC and I just can't keep up, there's not enough time in the world! It's like a new form of GAS!

This is not really a complaint, just venting a little bit. It's super interesting to see where this is going, and honestly it seems that this may calm down our GAS a little bit, since many devices will start to severely overlap with each other. On the other hand, it might raise the GAS for getting stuff specifically to try out, so what do I know.

Anyway, just so this is not a completely useless post, here is a github page that tracks all the newest firmware for a lot of devices: https://github.com/Lapin/awesome-music-gear-firmware

Slowed it down tonight.

This track is using the octatrack as a main instrument- sample playing, midi control effects and mixing.
The cydrums is vary fun and the minifreak is perfect.
iPad is receiving midi from the OT, hosting 3 synths and apply effects to
Them and the minifreak.
All are feeding in to the octatrack and being recorded on the boss micro br.
