Thank you so much for the holiday greetings @synthstrom, what an overly nice packaging!!! Happy holidays for you as well! 🫶 I‘ll spend my time during the holidays to deep-dive into my brandnew #deluge & create some music with it. 😍 Can‘t wait to get started… ____________________________________________ #spnyrd #synthstrom #synthstromaudible #synthstromdeluge #deluge #waagenbau #residentdj #techno #melodictechno (hier: Hamburg, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmWkgfnqvZh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Feature: Jeremy Blake aka Red Means Recording

I’ve been distracted this week because I received two excellent gifts; a 1010 Music Blackbox and a Novation MiniNova. The Gear Notes page has been updated accordingly. This does mean eventually remapping my midi channels which I’ve actually already done in the spreadsheet, I now just have to turn everything on and physically make the changes, but for the moment I’m happy noodling on the new noodlers (J calls the Circuit the original Noodler but now everything is a noodler - I like the adjective especially given the cables resemble noodles so much <^.^>).

I’m also feeling kind of burnt after Uncharted 4. I really didn’t like that game.

It’s time to be positive and while I’ve been enjoying a bunch of Rooster Teeth videos, I wanted to promote someone who could do with the views and content and is an amazing and wonderful person. Rooster Teeth is also brimming with amazing people, especially Funhaus, but Jeremy is one person and is a Synth Lord (hail Chromeo) so if I only get one opportunity to direct you somewhere, it’s going to be to Red Means Recording.

Here’s one of his most recent videos;

Topical, but also absolutely amazing. Very revealing of his character, I feel. Not only in its content but the presentation. He has a lot of videos in this format that are of a much lighter nature, more comical. They’re also fantastic and I encourage you to watch them. They’re entertaining and I hope you can enjoy them even if you’re not a muso or tech-head, but if you are a fellow Synth Lord, I hope that makes Jeremy’s videos all the more entertaining. He’s done a whole bunch of videos with the Teenage Engineering OP-1, it’s one of the ways he became most popular, but I feel like it’s his style and character that bring his videos to life and the OP-1 only facilitates those things.

Case in point, when he does demo/tutorials for new pieces of kit;

Jeremy’s video is my favourite for the Model: Cycles and the one that sold it to me. I didn’t want one until I saw his video. I don’t always make the styles of music he makes, but I do almost always enjoy listening to the styles of music he makes. We do seem to have a lot of stylistic cross-over tho, so that probably helps. I definitely dig his flavour and sense of sound design. I don’t have a space for the Digitone in my setup, I feel like it demands too much prep and attention for what I would want it for and then how I might implement it in my sonic texture, but the Cycles strikes the right balance of being approachable and being dynamic/able to be manipulated with surface controls from a performance perspective. This is my approach with Circuit, MiniNova, Gaia and for the most part Force, and Jeremy really nailed demonstrating that in the video. It’s also entertaining as always. His character always shines thru and I fux with it.

He does these types of videos for a lot of different bits of kit, the Zoia one was great, and definitely the Synthstrom Deluge. No question, I am getting a damn Deluge, it is right up my alley. Here’s a slightly different kind of video he does often, somewhere in-between a full demo and the OP-1 videos where he doesn’t do a full tutorial, but does narrate building a track on the Deluge;

Most of the tracks he builds, he exports into Ableton Live and Patrons who supports him on Patreon get the full finished tracks as downloads. I’m not a Patron just yet - we had to pull all our patronage due to family medical reasons as you can imagine which yea isn’t great and doesn’t feel great, but if there’s anyone I feel like I’m going to pick up first, it’s probably going to be Jeremy.

What I always do tho, is buy his new albums on Bandcamp, and when I can afford it, pay just a little more than the asking price - that’s one of the things I like about Bandcamp. You can find him right here at this super convenient lazylink or by searching for Jeremy Blake at Bandcamp.com - it’s literally soundvision.bandcamp.com. I started buying from Juvenile Hyperobject forward tho for some reason skipped hewwop1 as it’s just OP-1 tracks. Might go back and have another listen. Still - Juvenile Hyperobject, Pataphysical, Soft Music To Do Nothing To and Object Permanence are becoming four of my most listened-to albums of 2020 as I work from home. Even before all hell broke loose in the world, I fell in love with Soft Music... and Object Permanence when they were released.

But for the sell, I can’t help but posting one of the most popular tracks and I have to admit, a favourite of mine from Pataphysical... but I’m going to post the full construction video because it’s absolutely joyous;

This was recently arranged by orchestral composer David Bruce, who reached out to Jeremy to do an awesome swapsies while Jeremy did an electronic arrangement of one of David’s pieces in Ableton with phat synths and beats and just quietly I thought the orchestral arrangement of Aquamarine was good but Jeremy’s synth version of David’s music was ACEGOODPHENOMENAL orders of magnitude better. I mean I’m biased, but that doesn’t mean I’m not also objectively correct.

There’s a whole lot more to Jeremy Blake aka Red Means Recording to discover, but I don’t want to mass-post it here, I think it does him a disservice and you should go exploring and find it for yourself.

You can watch his videos on YouTube here.

You can buy his music on Bandcamp here.

You can support him on Patreon here.

You can buy cool shirts with his graphic designs on them here.

You can listen to his music on Spotify here.

You can look at his photos on Instagram here.

You can follow him on Twitter here.

As always - it’s the internet. You could be an arsehole, or instead, you could be awesome and kind and we could do amazing things together.

This is a “before reality sets in”-jam  (work starts tomorrow) - and the second one of Jamuary.

Again a modular synth improvisation with only a bit of mastering done in-the-box.

A bit of sequencing  from Squarp Pyramid. 

Main actors in this jam is the BitBox from 1010, a uBraids run through a Strymon magneto - and a couple of drums from Noise Engineering BIA and PLONK (sequenced by s Synthstrom Deluge).
