For this video I (again) enlisted the help of friend and colleauge Ben Winkler on Cello. I also played some Double Bass, on loan from my wonderful partner Josefine and and even a bit of my fathers Viola! All that with the usual Piano and Modular combo. The driving force behind this arrangement is a polyrythmical pattern between the left and right hands of the Piano and the two voices of the Modular. It's all built on top of a bed of bowed Double Bass interspersed with some Viola harmonics.

Over all this I asked Ben to improvisive which we filmed and recorded in my studio.

Patch Notes:

On the modular it's my usual two voice setup: "Yarns" supplies the MIDI from the DAW (in this case "Cubase") going into two "Even VCOs" and through the "BF22 "MS20 Style filter into the "Hexmix" VCA. Then into the 4ms "DLD" and into the output. The DLD has two clocks from the 4ms "Quad Clock Distributor" patched into the loop reverse input to reverse the loops. The two VCOs are frequency modulated with each other for some added texture.

The Piano was recorded with two Oktava "Mk12s" through a SPL "Goldmike! preamp. The output was patched into a Thermionic Culture "Culture Vulture" for some added warmth and then recorded into Cubase.

The Cello was recorded with a single Austrian Audio "OC 818". After recording it was tracked through a ReVox "A700" tape machine which was also used as a tape delay on the cello.
