A909 - DMAT - HWJ Weekend Challenge - Elektron Digitakt/Syntakt

DMAT 2023-09-10 | This weeks challenge was set by Jonathan R Cross. In honour of the date this weekend, the 9th of the 9th, we had to make a jam using 909 drums. I loaded some 909 samples into the Digitakt and used them for the beats. The musical bits are all sequenced on the Syntakt. I filmed my jam but the camera was out of focus. I was happy with the audio on the first take so ditched the video, kept the audio and used some footage I filmed on my phone on a road trip back from a gig in Norfolk instead. I don't know what the real name of the road was that we were on, so I called it the A909.

Hammerhead - DMAT - HWJ Weekend Challenge - Digitakt/Syntakt

DMAT 2023-05-22 | Here is my contribution to this week's challenge set by Andy and Grace.
"The mighty KLF once claimed “It’s grim up north” - but we beg to differ! Our beloved city of Sheffield has a long history of steel-making. One of the machines used in this process was known as the “drop hammer” - an enormous multi-ton hammer that stamped out the steel when it was still soft. The booms of the hammers dropping, that ran 24/7, would echo through the valleys and could be heard many miles away. This sound was hugely influential on the electronic music that has emerged from here, dating back over 50 years.

Legendary electronic music from our city that you may have heard of includes Cabaret Voltaire, Heaven 17, The Human League, Clock DVA, WARP Records, I Monster and Sweet Exorcist. Clearly many genres, not just “industrial techno”!

We challenge you to imagine that you can hear the drop hammers in the middle of the night, permeating your consciousness as you make your music, whatever it may be, and make us a jam that reflects this."

Fuzzy Bear Hug - DMAT - Elektron Digitakt/Syntakt

DMAT 2023-01-08 | Here is my contribution to this week's Hardware Jams weekend challenge set by Jonathan Cross. We had to create cosy jams to counteract the cold and darkness of this time of year in the northern hemisphere.
A little while back, my buddy UJTB sent me some mad sounds he'd made on the Syntakt. I used a couple of these as a starting point for this jam - a deep gnarly tuned kick and a wild effect he created on the dual VCO engine. I studied closely the settings he'd used to create these sounds and had a go at trying to recreate them myself. From there the rest of it just fell into place. Thanks UJTB!!

Cheers for listening

Bahrain - DMAT - Hardware Jams Islands Challenge

By coincidence I have just returned from a gig on the island of Bahrain at the Bahrain Jazz Festival with Malavita on Friday night.

Vacuum - DMAT - Digitakt/Syntakt - HWJ Weekend Challenge - Weightless

DMAT 2022-11-20 | This week's challenge was set by Rupture // Rapture.

"Weightless
Floating through time and space, being free of Earth's pull, a moment of reflection. This week we'd like you to write jams based on the feeling of weightlessness. That moment at the top of a rollercoaster before the drop. Maybe it's a chance to step out of your comfort zone and write something without the pull of your usual equipment or workflow. Let's see what we can come up with when the chains of gravity are broken."

Fade In The Silence - DMAT - HWJ Weekend Challenge

DMAT 2022-10-22 | Here is my entry for this week's hardware jams weekend challenge set by Rupture//Rapture.

Embrace the Silence
Sometimes it’s about what isn’t there rather than what is. The gaps in sound are a tool that are often overlooked and difficult to control in electronic music. The lack of sound can be a powerful tool if used correctly. This week we’d like you to incorporate an element of silence in your jams. This could be a pause before a break, a moment of reflection in a bridge section, some time to allow the track to breathe between sections. Show us what can be done when you are thinking about what isn’t there rather than what is.

Thanks for listening.

Pitch Black - DMAT - HWJ Weekend Challenge - Digitakt/Syntakt

DMAT 2022-09-18 | Here is my contribution to this weeks Hardware Jams weekend challenge set by Rupture//Rapture.

"We're getting dark this week. I find it fascinating how much light plays a part in how we view the world around us. This weekend we'd like you to embrace the darkness. That uneasy feeling when you wake up in the middle of the night, disorientated and surrounded by nothingness. Maybe there's a small shaft of light breaking through? A single star in the nights sky. Capture this feeling in your jams. This is a chance to get moody."

Forest Queen - Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge - Elektron Syntakt/Digitakt/Microfreak

DMAT 2022-06-05 | This week's challenge was part 2 of the HWJ story challenge. This part of the story was written by Sebtic Smile. Here is our prompt.

The story so far:
Your car is stuck in the woods with a flat tyre, you've gone to a pub for help. There are 3 guys there: an Enthusiastic guy; an Angry guy and a Sleepy guy.
You decide to get them all to come and help as not to offend any of them. You buy everyone a drink and then you all leave the pub. As you head out of the door, the bartender calls out with a worried look on his face, "Be careful, it's the Queen's Jubilee".
You shrug - how bad can it be - a few flags and bunting?
Eventually the four of you arrive back at the car. To your surprise it is covered with wildflowers and woven twig decorations. Weird. You hear a branch snap behind you - you turn to look at the others - Sleepy Guy has disappeared.
You double back to try to find him - maybe he lay down for a nap somewhere? Suddenly, you hear a terrifying scream. You spin round to see Enthusiastic Guy being dragged through the trees by something, screaming and thrashing as he disappears into the undergrowth.
You and Angry Guy exchange a horrified look. WTF is going on? Angry guy reaches into his jacket and pulls out a massive knife.
"Let's go," he mutters, striding in the direction that Enthusiastic was taken.
Heart pounding you hesitate for a moment, then follow him.
The woods are dark and quiet, all you hear are your footsteps crunching through the undergrowth.
You keep your eyes on Angry Guy, the last thing you want is to be alone in this forest.
As you struggle to keep up with Angry Guy, he suddenly plunges out of view, through the ground. You stop abruptly, at the edge of a massive hole. You can just make out Angry Guy at the bottom of the pit. He's not moving. The moon emerges from behind the clouds and to your horror, you see the Angry Man is impaled on a series of spikes that protrude from his stomach, his legs, his neck.
Instinct takes over and you run, trying to remember which direction the pub was. You see lights up ahead and head towards them as fast as you can.
You emerge from the woods - but it's not the pub. You enter a clearing, filled with hooded figures, holding flaming torches. You see Sleepy Guy and Enthusiastic Guy, stripped naked and tied to posts with binds of thorns. At their feet are bundles of twigs and kindling.
You are frozen with fear.
Two more hooded figures drag the body of Angry Man into the clearing and lash him to another post, stacking firewood at the base.
A tall figure, wearing a mask of a skull steps forward.
"Greetings." he speaks in a menacing voice.
"You have come to join us as we celebrate the Forest Queen's Eternal Jubilee. Play a song that will honour her or you will join your friends in a more dreadful sacrifice to her."
You realise, everything counts on this jam - as it may well be your last...
