[qishmish]

Very cool videos, really impressive and good for ears =)

Revisiting this guy a year and a half later, this really is just a fantastic track.

[Treseler7790]

I wish I had the money to afford this. You know how many hours I would spend on this thing?

[saltykraut]

glad I stumbled upon your work, very relaxing

[shaft9000]

[keesvangelis]

this verry good it swings

[AbioticSneaker]

What do you do for a living and CAN I INTERN? 20 m fair mannered with an undying love for modular systems XD

[deadlover73]

love your videos, great music, beautiful system.

[CleverNameHere81]

very very cool! XP

[doctorvague]

I really like your videos first off. The VCDO is a 'pry it out of my cold dead fingers' module for me. The perfect foil with warm analog oscillators.Check out my tracks on virb - better audio, and VCDO all over the place. Especially the track called Perspicacity. Thanks for your fine music!

[attorks]

Really cool. Is that Modcan VCDO right next to the sequencer? If so, do you think it is worth buying?

[Yuwipiman]

What are you using to get those groovy syncopated drum sounds? Is that the 730 with modules? Or a drum machine.

That's Stylus RMX running in DP. Some of the loops are standard 'real' drum loops and some are chopped up modular previously recorded modular jam bits that I (rather time consumingly) chop into slices in Recycle so they can be sped up and slowed down in real time. Since the loops are layered afterward, I freely move the 'one' around and such.

thanks for asking!

[RoboticusMusic]

@doctorvague abletons slice to MIDI. I just saved you a sickening amount of time.

[doctorvague]

also: about syncopation - I freely layer beats against each other where they're 'not supposed to go', like starting a loop on beat 3 and a half and another on beat 2 if that's what works feels good against the improv. And that changes as it goes along -the perceived 'one' at any given moment.

I'm still waiting for the cowbell......

Dance baby dance !!

[deadlover73]

you sound like Vitalic...amazing!!!!

[doctorvague]

Thanks so much for all the nice comments - I really appreciate it!

[justwaving]

Super sounds and groove!

[blwvideo]

Phil, that was great! I think this is my personal favorite of your videos.

[JohnLRice]

Another excellent one!

[rezzn8r]

great vid Dr.V!

love your new sequencer! it looks very 'playable'.

[jenamu6]

Is this all realtime?

If so, you're a true Modular Master.

If not, it's still great.

[doctorvague]

The modular is totally dry, as real time as it gets, no edits

the drum loop stuff was added after the fact

I jammed to a static loop

and later One was wherever deemed appropraite in the remix moment

[yusynthman]

I love it !

[thrcman]

Sounds fantastic! Although I MUCH preferred the first 10 seconds to the right. Jaw dropping sweet it was! :D

[neandrewthal]

Woooo, first view. That was the best thing I've seen in a while!

[doctorvague]

I should have changed shirts.
