This is the first track made in Iceland, since I moved to Reykjavík a couple of months ago.
Technical notes
The core background layered rhythms (7 layers) are done on an eurorack modular synth with the following modules : Cwejman resonator RES-4, Wiard/Malekko Noisering (output 1) as “ping” generator, Cwejman 4 phases PH-4 LFO, plus some 4ms RDC and a TipTop Audio Z8000 for additional modulations.
Drum part is from Microtonic plug-in drum synth and the synth bass is U-he ACE plug-in synth – both of them are triggered by a Sequentix Cirklon hardware sequencer.
Delay and reverb are from an Eventide Eclipse.
Structured, recorded and produced on Ableton Live software.
Here is a short demo of the Cwejman RES-4 Quad VC Resonators module I did a few months ago (I’ve just forgot to post it …).
This patch involve 3 intermodulating oscillators (Wiard Oscillator in LFO mode, Wiard Anti-Oscillator as a modulator, Tiptop Audio Z3000 as a modulator), which are filtered by a Wiard Boogie filter, itself modulated by the Wiard Oscilator.
12 dB/oct output of the Boogie filter is connected to the Cwejman RES-4. The tip was to modulate two bands of the RES-4 by an envelope (Wiard Envelator), which is trigged by a pulse rhythm created with the Intellijel uStep (clock signal is provided by the End output of a Bananalogue Serge VCS).
EFX processing through a nice Eventide Eclipse patch which give a Steve ROACH’s like sound (IMO).
Here is the last version of our eurorack analog modular synth. We are waiting for a Tiptop Audio Z8000 Matrix Sequencer, a brand new Intellijel uStep gate sequencer and some utilitarian Doepfer modules.
