Eik<p>This one was fun. I started off with a very slow bpm (30) and a drum machine kick, and kept layering stuff on top, while also slowly increasing the bpm up to something danceable. It crescendoed into a fun little tb-303 melodies jamming over a lot of triggered sounds.</p><p><a href="https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2401054533" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">twitch.tv/videos/2401054533</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/eurorack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>eurorack</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/modularsynth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modularsynth</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/modularsynths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modularsynths</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/earthmodularsociety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>earthmodularsociety</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/annarborbleepbloopcollective" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>annarborbleepbloopcollective</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/dawless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dawless</span></a></p>
Eik<p>My first show was nerve wracking and exhilarating in equal measure. My rehearsing beforehand collapsed almost immediately so I did what I always do in front of my synth - improvise. 30 minute set, and sharing the same billing as blokes who have songs in Severance. Not bad for a first time.</p><p>I'll probably do it again.</p><p><a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/eurorack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>eurorack</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/annarbor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>annarbor</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/ypsilanti" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ypsilanti</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/modularsynth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modularsynth</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/modularsynths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modularsynths</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/earthmodularsociety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>earthmodularsociety</span></a> <a href="https://a2mi.social/tags/dawless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dawless</span></a></p>

Overdue #introduction post:
• US Midwest
• Married with cats
• Liberal af
• This is my music alt; I play with #ModularSynths in #eurorack hardware & in software, + other instruments, including guitar & Chapman Stick
• Hit me up for modular synth lessons, no hardware needed!
• I've worked 30 years in software, but I've stepped away from it to go to grad school for #math
• I studied #physics & still watch the frontiers of the field
• I am #ActuallyAutistic

Nord Lead 3 and modular.
A bit of a moody piece here.
NGL I haven't really been feeling much community vibes over here, lotsa cat love, but not much interaction otherwise, so if you see this give a sign, maybe it's just me, or if you have some secret sauce, it seems the post Musk-hate glow has already worn off over here?
