Sorry for some of the harsh (albeit very short) sounds here and there when I chose a bad preset. I was choosing sounds as I went along and sometimes landed on some bad ones. This is what happens when do zero preparation and just wing it. I'll do a proper prepared stream at some point.

The process

I personally love this type of stream. There is a difference between a live jam with pre-determined sounds (which I also love) and this format where you go on a journey of improvisation and exploration and simply not knowing where it takes you. To prevent sounds that may take you out of the vibe can’t you audition sounds in your headphones and not have it go to the master?

Yeah I can do that and should have :) thanks for the reminder! I actually do this with my metronome when I turn it on, it's sent to my headphones only so nobody else has to hear it@@ilyandilymusic

What you are doing with this style live stream takes some incredible amount of talent which clearly comes from experience and a very good understanding of your software and synths. It not only sounds great, but it looks great too which is a bonus! It is always a pleasure to see the process unfold in its raw, unrehearsed nature. Much respect and appreciation for you and how well you pull it off. Thank you so much for putting this together as is.

I'd love to make as many hard sounds as you do!

I am about to start a long course of treatment for a health situation I have found myself in, and your epic, galaxy spanning sound-scapes are taking my mind out of my body at exactly the right time. Very sincere thanks for posting all of these, and please know that your work often goes beyond "just" entertaining us nerds...

Ahhh beautiful sounds in a noisy world 🌎 thank you 😊

Amazing synth sounds - I'm blown!

Superb!

This is a good one. I like how it slowly builds to driving pulse and then tapers back into the ether at the end.

So creative, cinematic, ethereal, such a fantastic set. Great work Pat!

I always love listening to your livestreams while working or writing. Just the right amount of chill atmospheric feels to keep me in the zone, but not totally send me into dreamland. (Also seeing kitty peekaboos here and there is always a treat. 💜)

Amazing as always

Love it great stream!!!!! and great music. Thx for sharing

Very good, had to pause you while it's mealtime here.

Absolutely loving it!

Love that rolling bass-line that spans much of the middle of the track. I'm new to synths and only been playing for a week or two so trying to learn as much as possible. Busy scrutinising the video to see if I can emulate it with my hardware 😅

The last 5 mins of this is just SICK! Headphones for that part.

Stellar!

Always rewarding to listen to your latest performance, and my like makes it 303 so far.

Amazing as always sir..

Fantastic Sunday Morning. Sublime.

As I listen to this and dozens of other compositions from you, I keep thinking you cannot be of this world. Of this dimension. Of this time. I go back to Wendy Carlos and almost every other computer-derived music that has come after. None...okay, a tip of the cap to Vangelis and Tangerine Dream...can match your incredible artistry. Many digital music artists have channels and platforms that allow us to listen to their performance. But, Pat, you allow us to SEE your compositions, often as you are creating them. That's a very special gift to us as subscribers/fans/followers. Love these contemporaneous productions. I think I've purchased virtually every one of your releases from the Apple Store or Bandcamp. I truly am a fan for life!!

Always enjoy these streams. And SA has a new logo!

GREAT and Peacefull !!!

Yet another beautiful piece of ambient musical 🎵 art 😊 just watched Klaus Shultz in a 1977 live concert surrounded by analogue keyboards 🎹 thinking you are the new king of the keyboards 🎹

It is so free and inspiring.

Nintendo should hire you for the next Metroid game soundtrack. Your music is like a logical evolution of the Prime game series.

Great Job. Thank you. As somebody who is just enjoying your music - may I ask you a question? Why do you have such a lot keyboards. Do you need them realy? And how many would you have if money does not count?

@stateazure

10 ай бұрын

If I'm doing a complicated track, or several tracks in a set on just hardware, you kind of need a few keyboards for the different layers and analog synths especially tend to lack multi-timbrality or even polyphony, so it's basically one synth = one layer (i.e. Bass or Lead, Sequence etc). But do I really need them? I don't really need any hardware at all apart from a PC or Mac computer running a DAW, that would take the fun away and great sound from some of these synths though and result in extremely boring videos just showing a computer screen..not very engaging or visually interesting, and that's really important for a KZread channel that relies on YT income to continue. So the synths/studio is also partly marketing. If money wasn't an option, I wouldn't want many more synths because I'm not so interested in just collecting hardware I don't use, it actually causes me anxiety and stress because I hated that kind of waste, but I would buy a bigger/better looking proper studio, instead of a crap small bedroom )

Очень комфортно слушается музыка,да!

Someone in the chat mentioned "Departure from the Northern Wasteland". It's a classic bit of Berlin School by Michael Hoenig, who was briefly in Tangerine Dream in about 1975. The title track is notable, among other things, for the way he varies the sequence lengths rather than stick to 4/4 time. Been a favourite of mine for many years now.

I listened to it right after my stream, it's a really great track I hadn't heard before. I find these kind of tracks (like a lot of Klaus Schulze early tracks) uncoverable though, they're too long and improvised (at least they seem improvised) and not something that can really be re-interpreted well other than maybe copying some of the sequences and just jamming a new improvisation over the top, at which point, I may as well just be doing my own improvised track that is only very loosely based or influenced by the original. Anyway, it's a very cool track, but not one I could cover well. Besides, it feels a little unappreciated to get asked to cover a track by another artist during one of my best unprepared live improvisations...It kinda comes across like 'Yeah this is not bad...but what about this track by this other artist' 🙂

@David_K_Booth

@@stateazure Glad you enjoyed it, it's always cool to discover new tracks (in this case a new old track.) :) I can understand how someone might think you could cover it, and also how from your angle the idea really doesn't fly. Michael Hoenig hasn't been at all prolific in the years since then, but he produced Harold Budd's album "Lovely Thunder" in the mid 1980s. From which I recommend "Ice Floes in Eden". Not to cover, just something that I suspect that you and your audience might like.

Awesome work of art! When will it be available for purchase?

I can link to a text file that I used. Someone else put it together and it contains a ton of good info, stuff that I've done in the past and matches with official stuff I've read on optimisation from companies like PreSonus (they have a guide in their website which is pretty good). I don't know who the original author is, but anyway it seems to be a large collection of optimisations taken from various sources.
