We played Midnight Cocktail Bar at an ACTUAL cocktail bar - Horatiu Roman Band - Live@SoundtrackCafe
The night is thick and full of mystique. There is a cloaked man in the corner of your eye, and he is getting closer. What's going on? Is this just a psychedelic song or premonitions of flashbacks from your own parallel lives?
Presenting part of our performance of Midnight Cocktail Bar from the album launch show at Soundtrack Cafe, an actual cocktail bar and caffe in Copenhagen, with the funky fellas Tommaso Richelmy on guitar, Nicholas Hein on bass, Mikkel Wilstrup on drums. Rec on 13 Dec 2024. I play electric piano (UAD Electra 88 on a Nord Electro 2), Hydrasynth Explorer, and vocals.
The piece is a semi-improvised composition from my album 2, built on a jam groove kinda funk beat that ge...

Here is my solo improvisation from 15 nov 2024 on Hydrasynth Explorer, acoustic piano and vocals. I added some wacky video effects to go with the sounds, but the sound is unedited, only slightly EQ'd, as it comes from a zoom h5. The performance was fully improvised, so I didn't know what it was going to be about until it happened. It ended up a story about all stories, about the universe and ev...

Here is a new rendition of Dreams on piano! A version I'm pretty happy with. I managed to do a bit better dynamics, and people said they really liked the buildup through the song. If you ask me, it still needs some work: the verses are all pretty similar and pretty thick on the piano part, maybe part of that is the recording quality and the reverby room, but part of it is definitely the arrange...

Hi! Here is the home studio version of my new song "I won't be home for Xmas" with cool space visuals and some random thoughts about the song.

    The dissonant pads/drones you are both getting out of the Hydrasynth and also how you are able to perform them, are gorgeous! Excellent work. I do Dark Ambient music, and i keep telling myself "I work in the box, i dont need a hardware synth no matter how much the Hydrasynth calls you" but watching the way you are playing the synth while programming it in realtime is making me truly rethink my decision

    • @horatiuromantic

      Thanks man! Performing is my obvious choice for this kinda music. It's nice to have a physical interface even if it's a midi controller. I'm not sure hydra is the one or there are better more performative ones but you can see the results. One thing tho, some dedicated effect pedals or knobs would be super nice, because it's knobs I tend to tweak a lot if offered the chance.

    • @horatiuromantic
      @horatiuromantic 4 месяца назад

      no rhodes tones I'm afraid. it's not really meant for that. There are some default patches that sound a bit like an FM piano. but you're better off with any old free rhodes plugin. this synth is more of a synth that you use to generate sounds from waveforms and mess them up with the knobs.

    Give me some info on the system, and ill guide you step by step. Some advice i can give you now, is to SILENCE the system, DO NOT RESET. If its an adressable system, it can be ok to silence and leave it in alarm. If the lights keep flashing after being silenced, thats not a fault. Its called selective silence, and cannot be changed while in alarm. Please make a video showing the controll panel, a manuel call point (activation buttons), and the smoke detector. If posible, try to get a key to the controll panel. You will know what your doing with my info. Feel free to reply for more info. PS: if you know that its not an adressable system, do not silence. I can be possible that the fire alarm system will not function propperly, while being silenced, and not reset,.

    Here in the United States, I would call my local fire department to have them come and inspect the system. It would be illegal to live in an apartment with faulty fire detection equipment. This is insane that this is happening more than once. How many months has this been going on? If I was you and nobody was working on a resolution, I would call the fire department every single time the alarm went off and tell them, "There might be a fire going on at this building, the alarm is going off." As a musician, I have no idea how you can stay sane with this unwanted noise.

      Same here - if this is not just a smoke detector but an actual fire alarm, I'd call 112 and straight up say, we have a fire alarm here in the building and you don't know where its from. Technically you should be leaving the building though, but this shouldn't continue. Same with car alarms, there are rather strict rules about how long they are allowed to be noisy.

I haven't tried the big one with the contact strip, it sounds cool but I like that this one is small and portable. The knobs on the left of the interface are filters, on the upper right are controls dependent on the currently selected button. There is no sequencer in this one, only an arpeggiator which is pretty basic, but I use it in the videos with the hydrasynth & drums if you want to see it in action.

    This is how synthesizers should be used, and you're a master. The Hydrasynth is a curious thing, you make it look so easy, but I struggled with it for quite a while. It doesn't protect you from doing silly things, but I think that's the secret to its power, too. Nothing is off limits. It's quite a ride, like I've just discovered that you can modulate the ARP parameters, so my journey continues! I've loved watching how you've tamed this beast, and turned synthesis into a performance.

I imagine patching a sawtooth drone, one of the mutants providing an FM simulation of the filling sound, applying a sine LFO for the spin cycle and a filter envelope for another motor sound.
