5 mins in the Robot Lounge

By Ashen Simian on February 18, 2024 9:32 am

this time its lazy, jazzy, late evening ambience with light rhythms. Low lights, nothing to do, really...  the usual gear in use. Micromoog bass, Elka and Polysix strings, melodies and effects with Animoog (ipad) and Crumar DS-2.

It does sound like music robots would relax to, but I found it pretty enjoyable to chill with also.

This is really great, love the composition and the sounds, a lot of great tones in this, the synth strings sound amazing

My gosh, this is so smooth and gorgeous. That wily synth lead around the 3:00 mark almost sounds like Uilleann pipes at points, which is awesome. heart

Thanks!!!  This sounds quite nice for me too and I am glad you liked it. I went for the texture and mood instead of any serious melody lines or solos as such.

Thanks!!!  This track is, for once, for me too better than it seemed to be at first. Usually it is the other way round for me smile

Goddamn, so many cool patches.  Those pads are so fat and lovely.

I checked what sounds you are pointing at and it is actually an old MiniKorg 700S. It has a ring modulatos and using that rather lightly can give that reedy pipe sound....glad you like it!

Future cyberlounge, good song to overlook the neon lit city down below by.
