Synthesist Marius Leicht shared this live performance of Windhauch, featuring the sound of a vintage Oberheim Eight Voice synthesizer:
What Leicht shared about Windhauch:
“I was invited to GForce Software’s incredible synthesizer studio in England and gratefully recorded a whole album with this synthesizer of my and many other’s dreams.
This piece was one of the first things I played with the beauty. A free improvisation inspired by being kissed by the sun while having a marvellous British Teatime.”
The music comes from Leicht’s new album, KLANG | Oberheim Eight Voice, which is a ‘one synth challenge’ style project. You can find more information about it at Leicht’s site.
Synthesist Frédéric Kuyl (No Lake) shared this ambient synth performance, performed with a minimal setup of a Moog Subharmonicon & Mother-32 Eurorack synths.
“I wanted to close the year with the best of myself,” notes Kuyl. “I don’t think I’ve ever been so psychically invested in a jam. I am in love with both of these machines. Nothing less, nothing more.”
This laid-back synth jam, via the nightwater, features the sounds of a minimal setup, including Moog Mother-32 and Dave Smith Instruments Tempest drum machine.
While the gear used is fairly minimal, the jam still sounds complete and rich, because of effective arrangement.
What they shared about the technical details:
“Quick jam using the Moog Mother 32 for the lead and bass sounds. Dave Smith Tempest analog drum machine on the drums, UDO Super 6 for some background pads, and Strymon Bigsky Mx Reverb on everything.”
