Pickup Sticks Pickup Sticks
A fun number from 1995 where I was trying to get all of these syncopated elements going at once. I love that Stratosphere sound from the K2000.
Shadowfaxis Shadowfaxis
I was probably heavily influenced by the Shadowfax tune 'Oasis' on this one. The timing is waaayyy off, but it just bristles with energy!
Vitarperation Vitarperation
I think there are 3 JD990's humming along on this 1994 rough mix.
Hot Sauce! Hot Sauce!
An upbeat little Wavestation ditty from around 1993 or 1994. The distorted guitar is from the 01R/W.
Interlude in 3/4 Interlude in 3/4
There's something magical about what KARMA does with certain chords...in this case a Cm, Fm11 and F#7/C#. The "choppy" flute sound was just one of those "happy accidents" from some on the fly editing.
Contessa (Waltz for Gemma) Contessa (Waltz for Gemma)
As the waltz fades in the background, the handsome General leads our lovely Contessa out to the veranda for an evening stroll under the stars...will she get her man?
Space Dream:Whispers From Afar::Bolero Luna Space Dream:Whispers From Afar::Bolero Luna
This mix started off in ambient space but somehow morphed into a Bolero for the Moon. Things like that just happen sometimes late at night in the Soundworld!
The Doogenator The Doogenator
Some of those KARMA synth-bass lines are just irresistable. My V-Synth still hasn't forgiven me for bending the wang bar on that poor guitar!
Coronado's Wild Night in Medellin (Mango's) Coronado's Wild Night in Medellin (Mango's)
Mango's is a super dancing club in Medellin, Colombia. See Coronado's story below in the full song info...the empetus behind the tune. This one's for you C!
Vincit Omnia Veritas (Truth Conquers All) Vincit Omnia Veritas (Truth Conquers All)
A rough mix demo based from EJ2's CATALYST v. 1 combi collection for the Korg OASYS. My 1st time with using KARMA in a full song. Done on 3/7/09. "ConfunKction" was done the next day. It started a busy year!
Sawana Sawana
A throwaway track really, but that opening salvo of those beautiful saw waves courtesy of the 'Portamental' patch from the JD990 Vintage collection gets it included.
DAKTARI! DAKTARI!
For those old enough to remember...no explanation is necessary! Bring on the Serengeti!
Enders Enders
The exact same Wavestation groove as 'Starters', but slowed down and with dual JD990 leads (one of them tortured beyond belief!)
Vitar PraKctice Track Vitar PraKctice Track
A practice track to demo the 'Vitar', a JD990 beast that is half electric violin, and half guitar. The guide track is one of the few appearances of the Triton I have on tape.
Ancient Future (Dreams of Far Away) Ancient Future (Dreams of Far Away)
An early (1992) Space/New Age attempt on the Korg 01R/W and Roland D-70. Songs like this one are dear to me because MIDI and synthesizers were at that time so new to me and I was finally able to get the sounds in my head onto tape!
Kashmiri Dawn Kashmiri Dawn
An early stab (1993) at an ambient space with a lush tamboura...courtesy of my new at that time E-mu Proteus 3 World synth module.
You Only (Ikaw Lang) You Only (Ikaw Lang)
One of my earliest songs posted on Soundclick. It grew from a very simple OASYS chord progression to include all of the added parts. My first use of APS (Articulative Phrase Synthesis) on the V-Synth violin.
