More Modular Adventures: Eleven Eight
This time I am exploring the Verbos Harmonic Oscillator and an eleven/eight time signature. This oscillator offers endless possibilities with each of the eight harmonics having separate inputs and outputs. And this before any additional modulation. In addition I have also used Instruo Seashell, Syntrx II and Moog Subharmonicon. My DwyforTech Modrwy wave folder and […]
Modrwy Jam
Featuring the Modrwy module from Dwyfor Tech, a magical wavefolding ring modulator! This jam is with my Klee sequencer, sine and triangle waves into Modrwy, then to Thomas White low pass gate. I am using two quantizers here – the Tip Top Quantizer which is great for live stuff and also an Addac quantizer for […]

Most sounds are from my Eurorack modular synth with additional parts from my latest acquisition – the Instruo Seashell Got quite carried away with […]

Patience And Shuffle The Cards – New Album
Release date: July 25th – CD in digipack + Bandcamp downloads and streaming services I first came across the phrase Patience And Shuffle The Cards in the diaries of Sir Walter Scott, although I later learned that it originates in Don Quixote.

Stone Soup
Often tracks begin with a simple sequence which only gradually takes form with the addition of other elements – the title refers to the folk tale where a traveller arrives in a village with no food but just a cooking pot and a stone. Villages intrigued as to what dish he would produce simply boiling […]
