about

This is an album of analogue synthesizer experiments and improvisations, almost entirely played by hand. Just two monophonic synthesizers were used; a Roland SH-09, and a Behringer Wasp Deluxe, to create a series of atmospheric and otherworldly explorative tracks. The tracks make frequent use of the 'Sample and Hold' capabilities of both synthesizers, either as a rhythmic device, or as an effect.

Instruments used on this album:
Star Caravan - Roland SH-09
Sonic Modulator - Roland SH-09
Lafraktal - SH-09 (Drums and Bass); Wasp (Melodies and FX)
Exotic Wildlife - Behringer Wasp Deluxe
Hymenoptera - Behringer Wasp Deluxe
S+H - Behringer Wasp Deluxe
The Black Sun - Roland SH-09
The Man With Lightbulb Eyes - Behringer Wasp Deluxe

Aside from the quantized drum parts and arpeggiator on 'The Man With Lightbulb Eyes', all parts on this album were played by hand without sequencing.
