Solvent improv#3: techno acid slop x0xb0x + Modcan Super Delay 30a + 808

Solvent Improv #3 - This will be the last video with this Modcan/808/x0x setup.

OK so here is a techno/acid improv. Pretty sloppy and boring in several sections, I know... But I uploaded it because I think there are a few really cool sections in here too. It often sounds very busy, like there's a lot going on, but this is really just an 808, x0xb0x, Mbase Kick, and processing via 2 Modcan modules --- the Frequency Shifter, and the SuperDelay. All of those intricate (or sloppy, depending on the section), rubbery bass sounds are coming from the x0xb0x into the Super Delay module, with it's delay time CV-in being modulated by the Modcan sequencer (clocked via 808 trigger). The result sometimes reminds me of Soul Oddity or some of the early Schemetic 12"s (wonder how many people will recognize that obscure reference!?). Anyway, this Super Delay module was inducing some severe gear lust, so I'm almost relieved that they're discontinued - because I definitely cannot afford one.

Those familiar with my music will know that this is not the kind of music that I release. With a few exceptions, I really don't even like techno, so I don't know why I've been cranking out so much stuff like this lately. So far it's just for fun.., we'll see... But this is definitely *not* the kind of material you can expect from my upcoming album (coming out May 2010 on Ghostly).

Funny, I was thinking it sounded a bit like Soul Oddity, one of my all time favorite albums. I've always wanted to know how they got those sounds, thanks for sharing your gear setup and some fine grooves.
