Digitakt | Behind The Beat | Smif N Wessun - Bucktown VoltageCtrlRtv 2023-03-21 | I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to recreate the classic beat from Smif n Wessun's "Bucktown" produced bt Da Beat Miners (DJ Evil E & Mr. Walt) using my Elektron Digitakt. After listening to the track and studying the different elements, I started by sampling the drums from The Whatnauts, and the horns from Jack Bruce.

Create and Meditate | Digitone Syntakt Modular Synth VoltageCtrlRtv 2023-03-11 | Making meditation music with the Elektron Digitone, Syntakt, and modular synthesizer is a truly meditative experience in itself. As I sit down in front of my equipment, I can feel the energy building up within me, knowing that I am about to create something beautiful and peaceful. As I start playing around with the frequencies, I allow myself to get lost in the flow of the music. The soothing and hypnotic sounds that the synthesizers produce have a calming effect on my mind and body, and I can feel my breathing slow down as I enter a state of deep relaxation. The rhythmic beats and ethereal melodies that emerge from the speakers transport me to a different world, one where I am free to let go of all my worries and just be. It is truly a magical experience I look forward to every time I sit down to make meditation music.PeaceShiroIf youre in the L.A area I'll be performing a meditative sound bath on the 18thI'll post the details on my instagram account at voltagectrlr

In The Breeze | Octatrack x Syntakt Boombap Beat VoltageCtrlRtv 2023-03-03 | Hey yall, in this video, I want to show you how I use the Elektron Octatrack for sample chopping and the Syntakt for analog drums to create classic Boombap Hip Hop beats. As a producer, I love digging through dusty crates of vinyl to find unique samples that I can chop up and transform into something new. And with the Octatrack, I have all the tools I need to take those samples to the next level.I start by slicing up my samples into individual hits. From there, I can create intricate patterns and add in effects like filtering and delay to give each hit its own unique character. And when it comes to drums, the Syntakt is my go-to machine for that classic analog sound.I love the warmth and depth that the Syntakt brings to my beats, and its intuitive interface makes it easy to tweak each sound to perfection. With these two machines working together, I can create beats that are both classic and modern, paying homage to the old-school while pushing the boundaries of contemporary Hip Hop production. So sit back, relax, and let's get into it!clothing and sound packs:http://audibleobjects.comtutorials and downloadshttp://patreon.com/voltagectrlr#octatrack #syntakt #boombap

Primordial Melodies Digitone Machinedrum Modular Synth Jam VoltageCtrlRtv 2023-02-18 | This week I embarked on another sonic exploration with my trusty modular synth, digitone, and machine drum to create a new composition. As I plugged in the cables and turned on the machines, I felt a familiar excitement coursing through my veins. I began to tweak the knobs and dials on the modular synth, experimenting with different sounds and textures. The digitone provided a melodic foundation, and the machine drum added a pulsing beat that made my head nod. As the composition started to take shape, I lost track of time and became completely absorbed in the creative process. It was only when I stepped back and hit the "play" button that I realized I had just spent the last hour or so lost in the beautiful chaos of this composition. I made the stems of this song available for my http://patreon.com/voltagectrlr subscribers.#machinedrum #digitone #modularsynth

Octatrack X Syntakt - Chopped and Flipped Guitar Sample VoltageCtrlRtv 2023-02-10 | I love combination of the Elektron Octatrack and Syntakt for creating boombap beats. The Octatrack serves as his primary tool for chopping samples, as its advanced sample slicing capabilities allow him to easily manipulate audio clips and add unique character to his beats. I use the Syntakt to create rich and warm analog drum sounds, taking advantage of its vast array of synthesis options and powerful step sequencer.
