Hellol hello! Here are my latest videos!

I had early access to Elektron's new groovebox Syntakt to give them feedback and make this demo video. It's a super deep machine that I explored a few different genres on. I'd say this is the best starter Elektron box for a synth-based workflow, and the Digitakt is the best one for samples. I find their Model series a bit too limited, and their premium machines (Octatrack, Rytm, Analog Four) are great but obviously come with a premium price tag and are quite a bit more complicated to wrap one's head around. All are fun though, and they have such a unique, well-designed sequencing system that you can really fly on once you get the hang of it.

Here's a zip file containing a bunch of music and sounds from the video - if there are any you think I should finish up for a proper release, I'd love to know!

And just published a few moments ago, here's a video of 12 lesser known Ableton tips that speed things up for me tremendously! Hope it's helpful for all of you Ableton heads.

Lastly, on the second channel I dropped some soundscapes with leaves running through the Hologram Microcosm. Watch here and download the sounds for your own use here.

Cheers!
