Live-played ambient improv with the Moog Matriarch and Oberheim OB-6.
FALLING LEAVES REPLAY ALL KINDNESS
#Moog #Matriarch #Improvisation #Oberheim #OB-6 #Mercury7 #Meris
INSTRUMENTS:
Moog Matriarch
Oberheim OB-6
Meris Mercury 7
Strymon Deco
Strymon Volante
UA Golden
NOTES:
A sequence runs on the Matriarch with a patch that adds random accents by periodically triggering an envelope with sample and hold. This adds a sense of extra notes or an extra voice. The lead sound is a tape-warbly keys patch on the OB-6. I love this patch as it just drips with nostalgia and introspection. The main reverb heard is both synths running through the Mercury 7 and then UA Golden is on a send from the main mixer.
*Thanks to Nicky Pe for the beautiful video clip.
*The title is an homage to a poem by Basho. He had spent a few nights at a monastery while traveling. When he left, having no money to give to the monks, he wrote this poem:
Sweep the garden --
All Kindesses,
Falling willow leaves repay.
RECORDING
Everything is recorded live and direct with no post production aside from normalization and limiting.
