The world is so noisy right now. I almost forgot how to make electronic music.
In this video I'll go over some concepts of making a complex bass line on the modular synth. I'll make a patch from scratch and explain my thought process and share some ideas as well. I'll also jam this bassline with the drum groove on the Digitakt. This is perhaps my favourite way of making a synth bassline! Enjoy!

🌍 Hello World! My name is Ihor.
This is my channel where I share my experiences, ideas, reviews and tutorials related to Electronic Music Production. I focus mostly on Techno and House music. In my Studio on my Music Production Desk you will find a variety of different gear like: digital and analog synth, eurorack modular, drum machine, sampler, effect, mixer, guitar pedal, MIDI controller. Also software: DAW, Ableton, VST, plugins.
I am myself an engineer and I am quite obsessed with the Music Technology and Sound Design. I like making music without a computer. I like playing Electronic Music Live with my Minimal Dawless Setup. I love Eurorack Modular Techno and always keen to talk about the modular workflow.
I strongly believe that nothing can be better than a good Dawless Techno Jam!
I watched all the Techno Tutorials on KZread! (I think)
📺 Thanks for watching! And have fun!
✌️ Peace.

    I am a metalhead and was surfing for some festival videos. Came across your channel for some reason. Man, I knew that modular synths existed, but it's somehow mesmerizing how you present your content and your passion. I love that it's showing that EDM can be so much more than just pressing the power button of your desktop PC. The complex triggering, cascaded triggering and modulation of all the variables, makes this craft so complex it's almost impossible to wrap your head around the fact that there are endless possibilities for a unique sound. In a way it's "fretless" soundscaping. I love it. You are really doing a great job. Actually I think this is metal AF. \m/ Thanks man.

    Glad you came across my channel! I really much appreciate your kind words about my work and your comment! This soundscaping is like exploring an endless universe of sounds and sonics. Sometimes I do it "to fret", sometimes just "fretless". And I am so happy I find people that join me on the journey! You think this is metal? Then this is metal indeed! Thank you man!

    @Hans Oslo Tommy Creep has a zine called Black Panels Only and its only the darker side of modular. It has various metal as well as industrial, general blackness, drone, noise based ear-rape, audio sacrifice, ritual, divination and more. Lots of unholy metal-modular unions out there. There is even a module in coffin shape with real dirt in it from Edgar Allan Poe's grave site to send your signal through to distort. If that's not metal, I don't know what is.
