a bit hasty, but I was determined to do it today.. tough one to sequence ..could use lots of stuff, such fantastic song, melodies, harmonies..
the paraphonoise part is hillarious and supper out of place lol .. I should propably take it out from version 2..
Sam said triplets AND major, I didnt REALLY do major.. Maybe with more improv, under the "weird session" title we do with Soffieur ,
I did the midi sequence on saturday, and did the jam today
done couple days ago.
its an interesting piece,
to say the least, especially compared to other drunk bars I have spit and recorded and posted in my channel over the years .

wierd harmonies sessions, we tried to do a 5/4 thing... its..... interesting I think...
this is sophies basic idea, it sounds amazing while coming up... I made some bad decicions early on, forgot we were recording... but I think this jam is really nice harmonically and in what it aimed to be overall
Very varied... compliment erratic - sounds and harmonies like magic, 2 repeats and we 're like THAts it , like rhyythm addicts , we no passive θαΝΑση
in case you are wondering, the sounds and gear are.
Soma RoaT, Boss rc505mkii , Roland sh201, Hohner PK150
Erratic exomoon all the way , woohooooooo , soffieur made it shine all the way.
There are a couple of old and new ideas that are getting tested and mixed in this first attempt in disharmonic / weird harmonies sessions .. Today it was a really a blast, in that we actually tested out our ideas and discussions on chords harmonies and all, that had took place before...
This is really a blast for me . Soffie is handling sh201 like a pro, experimenting with it so expressively, that it could have been an advertisement from 2006-2007 on the hardocore and roaring sounds of this pretty underrated synth..

the lyrics were AI generated, to be able to make it to the deadline... crazy...
here are the lyrics:
Yo, it’s Battle Theater, live with the wire and fader,
Drums hit gritty like a rusty elevator,
From the boroughs to the bay, I bend space with a layer,
Of analog dreams, synths scream, I’m the slayer.
Pad smackin’, rack stackin’, vinyl on the platter,
Loop it like time, while y’all chase the chatter.
HWJ fam, deep cuts with precision,
Jams from the kitchen got ‘em callin’ it religion.
MIDI in my veins, circuit-bent soul,
Bassline heavy like I’m diggin' through coal.
I don’t scroll—I dial tone with the heater,
Old school spit, no clickbait feature.
Bout the groove, not the glitter, no cap, no filter,
I wreck the scene clean like a studio kilter.
So salute to the crew makin' noise with flair—
From tape hiss roots to the waveform's glare.
still looking for a name
done yesterday. we had to do a jam with drone elements or go full drone. I would say mine is mildly droney
boss rc505, soma roat, hohner pk150, roland sh201
I was to make something for the HWJ challenge, tried different things , but I got to the point that I would rap about it, but I wanted to write more and I immediately saw that "no way I can rap all this live" and proceeded with my regular gonzo cypher east coast styled studio work.
later part is a bit empty ;) , if someone wants to chime in
ΣΤΙΧΟΙ/LYRICS
euroVIsion ? not a MUsic competition * they allowing isreal and ozzies
a cultural orgy * of large proportions * ecoNOmic
this things based on the peTItions the fucking right wing with LArge oPInions
about HOw the "woke comMUnity" imposing trans comMOdities
and here me thinking LOgically why are these people so HOstile
why they feeling so thrEAtened * values quEstioned
by a couple artists showing off their SEntiment
people afRAId what emotions reveal for the inner SElf
you biggots are the real PUssies for suppressing whats REAL
you're the scum of the earth so I am SInging this here
fuck the fame and the press * you dont have to pretend
hardware jams is the vision who needs gloss and the lights
when authenticity delights , the real deal at last
when you FEEling that SPAark **** you feeling it too ?
weekend prompts a delight , us , LUcky few
i am not a live artist, through hardware jams I did
I couple FUnny Art bits ** * some rather NAsty * * words
I rather take art seriously and then I NOT
my style is 8 bit loving * lacking that /neAnderthal or SO
better to make this a song than a jam
I deCIded, doing raps KEEpiiing ** INnkie's WIshes LIving!
cause the sounds and the styles be the core* of the hype
prompt poLIce are looking for me * I never lie
my studio is ΚΙΔ keyBOARDS , nostalgic SOUnd
still NEED them - who GIves - big SYnths * try to REAch that
EXomoon erRAtic , finally astonomy suggests SOmething biggA
I am only GIiving,** this BEAT is dope as fuck ** ειναι to ΒΗτα ΘΗτα
Ενα με το συμπαν - δεν εχω ασπιδα ειναι ο μαγος με τα δωρα απο το διαστημα
αΝΑθεμα περιεργες εκσΤΑσεις * ειμαστε ακομα μεσα στο ΜΑτριξ
περιεργοι οι αθεοι επικεντρωνται στο singularity ,
southern GREE * boom bap TIγκα στη ΝΤΟπα εΝΤΑ
now there those last bits , kind o typical greek menTAlity
only the surface of philosophy και ποιος γαμει το σωΚΡΑτη ?

the cheatiest of all cheats, not a jam
this is the scond part of crazy story HWJ collective are doing in the last weekend challenges..
I did the perspective of nature being more or less indifferent to whether humanity survives or not.

This is completely for non commerical purposes, , this dude Raias Beats does amazing beats, check him out , and this is the original beat link

cover from a Pixies original, infamous from the series From, at least thats where I heard it.. It adds something to the series. Its haunting in a way
I guess I was in the mood for doing a cover, was thinking about an awesome greek hardcore curst song, Η τιμή της σιωπης - Χαολτική απειλη, but then it occured to me that I had another one in my mind, which of course carries the mood of the series for me, and its in plain classic 3/4 , so I had to pick that...
did it in 2 hours, including midi and udio cabling, and doing several failed takes.. ALL HAIL HWJ
HWJ 4 LIFE
1000 YEARS HWJ
PS: I forgot to change the colours, but somehow its suiting . full circle.
sound is really shitty - mean like really lousy, not my usuall bad sound.. that was because in the audio recording the PO33 which also had the beat was too loud and it killed everything, so I put a small portion of it plus the sound from the camera..

this is the yearly picture challenge of HWJ, we had to be inspired by Hieronymous Bosch paintings... I didnt have any particular painting in my mind, I think his paintings are agressive + provokative when you start to look at the details, so I guess I did that..
friggin love the result.
the 2 phrases in the loopers where recorded with the sh201 in advance
drums are 3 samples from a sliced breakbeat sample aleady in the PO-33, plus a hihat from the po33 sounds.
all vocal samples were played manually
the greek quote is from this years greek masterchef tv series.. this girl is delightfully nasty when she declares she as at war with some people.
The film sample, I will not reveal yet. I will make a post at a later time.. No cheating!!
we'll see how it goes ...
a new KGB genre/style is born... the beats were taken by looping the analogue rhythm sounds of my circuit bent Casio MT-800 into the RC-505 .
there 2 similar jams I did for hwj challenges that preceded this, and so its a 3 pack now.
found in old cassette, must be from around 1999, 2000
