Monty Mole meets Neu! in Dusseldorf
By Tristan Louth-Robins on February 13, 2020 9:10 pm
I had a dream the other night that I was playing my favourite childhood game on a C64 (Auf Wiedersehen Monty) and some Krautrock started when you entered the Dusseldorf screen.
I recently got a Korg SQ-1 for input to my Eurorack, so within five minutes I was making krautrock. 
The percussive element is some white noise with an envelope triggered by the second CV gate output from the SQ-1. Its swingy rhythm is the result of running it through the B input of a 4MS DLD and tweaking the time in the second half. I then lock off a loop and let the real-time percussion play over it, which is why it ends up as a wonky polyrhythm. Weird samples are triggered by a pulse from a TipTop One sampler.
