A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.
I captured this quickly and, only a day later, realized that I had leaned into view during the final performance. I wish my head weren't obscuring so much of the view at points, but the feeling of the jam was important enough to me that I worked with the footage I had. Hopefully it's not too disruptive.
This piece started as a semi-generative exploration on the modular rack, with Manis on one voice and a Disting oscillator on the other. But really, it came alive as soon as I added the Subharmonicon, which did its trademark magic of making a song out of a simple sequence. The DFAMs into the Boum made a great combination, as the Boum dirtied up the DFAMs a little without sacrificing their warmth, and also allowed me to filter both in at once. And the Mother 32 gave me a sketchpad where I could plonk a few notes for emphasis. Ultimately, my starting point-the semi-generative eurorack voices-took a backseat to the warmer sounds, and my mood.
Mutable Instruments Plaits - chordal drone
Moog Subharmonicon through Noise Engineering Melotus Versio - main chord progression
Moog Mother 32 - sort-of melody played by hand
Moog DFAM x 2 through OTO Boum - pitched drums
Manis Iteritas - generative sequence 1
Expert Sleepers Disting Mk4 - generative sequence 2
Qu-Bit Bloom - semi-generative sequencing
WMD Overseer through Happy Nerding FX Aid XL - master filter and reverb
ALM Busy Circuits Pamela's New Workout - clock and modulation/LFOs
Befaco STMix and Strymon AA.1 - audio routing/mixing
Erica Synths Zen Delay - delay and drive crescendo wildness
Written, performed and recorded live to two stereo outputs (DFAMs and melodics), with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

Epic as fuck. Modular hero level 10
This is Art and I love every Single bit of it. Please never stop sharing your music
The stuff with the Zen Delay at the end is incredible. Well done as usual Jay!
Very inspiring - definitely makes me want to take the day off and play with my Moog Studio all day.
I'm developing a sci fi game right now and this reminds me a lot of the soundtrack I'm making for it.
OMFG, what have I just listened to!?
I think you perfectly encapsulated the feeling many of us are experiencing in such a remarkably beautiful way, while really making me want a zen delay lol
EXACTLY!
WHAT
JUST
HAPPENED
How do you throw so much grit on top of grit and still get it to come out so epic? This was awesome.
Superb! And I sent this to the wife so she can understand why I need more weeble borp toys.
Wow - I drifted away a bit there...
Thanks thanks thanks, immense.
Every single time. Fantastic.
Double DFAM is baller.
this guy are sick.
I can't forget this incredible composition. Regularly coming back here to feed my Soul.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Brutal trip
Wow. Just Wow
yes! love how you go wild at the end, more of that please.
Awesomeness squared ❤
Amazing. You are the best. Amazing.
This is some of the most tasteful dawless stuff I've seen. Good stuff good sir, subbed!
Incredible. Love the way it all collapses (in a meticulously controlled way).
That ending!!!
This was an unexpected ride, what a great track.
Damn...the way you had the zen delay sounding like an air raid siren at the end gave me chills. Really loved this one.
I'm regularly coming back here. I love this track- from beginning to the end - especially to the end!!
This is my Top One ever.-no doubt.
Thanks a lot for that !
This entire piece was incredible, then got to 8:00 and was blown away. Thanks for sharing the fun. And yeah I know it is an apocalyptic piece but still it was fun to listen to. 😁
The OTO BOUM on the DFAMs sounds great. Whole track is amazing - great work as usual
Tempted to pick one up for use with my 01/IV
Love your music. Thank you for creating these.
mmm yes yes. Exactly what I need this Monday evening.
Wow, this is great!
Awesome as always, Jay!
Sorry but this great track its a vocal boat it carries a feeling and vocals. It inspires both of those things really well. Unvolentary singing on my part listening to it and it invoked emotion and a single tear. Congratulations on your gift music is such a gift keep it up.
Jaw dropping! (Good job I'm typing this, as I couldn't tell anyone how good this is, my bloody jaw's stuck open...)
Incredibly inspiring!
AMAZING as always ! : )
This was so intense! I love it

Awesome track that changes a lot over time, I like it!
Haunting and beautiful as always; you continue to inspire
Top notch... I love how professional your mixes sound
This is excellent.
What an amazing industrial jam this is!
Fabulous. Really captures how I’m feeling these days.
Wow, this really is an impressive jam! Great work. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great song and performance. Really appreciate the commentary too. Cheers!
that is one epic build. that wall of sound at the end is exquisite.
Yup, I think that pretty much sums up how I'm feeling at the moment too. Great work man 👍
Your mastery of the mighty Zen Delay is quite amazing! (among other amazing skills). Thank you for sharing this.
Play this live in the right space (would love to hear it in a cathedral og churchspace) and people would be blown to pieces. Just Wow! Amazing! Grand!
This is trully amazing ! Just discovered your channel, i immediately subscribe. Thank you.
Well done sir!
I’ve listened to this 6 times back to back already. Seriously one of my favorite pieces of art that you’ve brought to us. Up there with Canopy. Thank you!
That ending was insanity
Wow, awesome sounds.
So beautiful. I never really liked the sound of the DFAM but you really make it shine.
Just listen...beautifully arranged layout, beautiful sounding...
Absolutely spectacular as usual. I just picked up the mother, sub, and dfam today. Was on the fence, but your videos sealed the deal for me. Just incredible what you can do with them (along with some of their friends).
Very nice ascent. I love the Zen Delay. :-) Bravo !
new follower here
super jam! très beau son !
I really love all your past videos, but I think you are excelling with this modular Stuff. Maybe this is the path you must follow. Awesome!
well done
This is amazing. The Apocalypse never sounded as just!
This makes me to think of buying one of basic synths and try it on my own. Not expecting to become a second JMJ but if this will make me happy, it's worth it! You just made my life a little better 🙂
Ah the aul head in the way pitfall, have done that many a times sometimes even the whole body blocking what I thought was a good shot haha
Awesome work on this really capturing some the apocalyptic feelings of now with shimmerings of a resilient hope. Loving your work
Very very nice 👌
This IMO is your best work. What an amazing song! I bought a Moog matriarch because of you and I demand to see it in more songs!
You may just get your wish soon! And thank you for the kind words.
This sound must to be continued!
Masterpiece.
...two months later.
Love it!
Holy shit.
Marvelous. I approve of this sort of thing :)
so much stereo activity.....really interesting sonic soup here......loads of tasty flavours.....
Set phasers to stun !
Epic 🤘🤘🤘
EEEEEPPPPPPIIIIICCCCC!!!!!!
It's just TOP, I'm going to give it a try as I have pretty much the same set. Great Zen Delay ;-)
Fantastique
Excellent as always.
I'm not a big fan of the extremly wild stuff at the end but hats of to you :)
This was intense. I kept imagining this music on Interstellar or some sci-fi game 👽
Freaking killer
This should be on KEXP
Wicked my
Loving the modular tracks recently. Also, it might be worth checking out the Emblematic Catalyst. It’s a super flexible macro-crossfader for eurorack. It uses “scenes” just like the Octa
Emblematic Catalyst sounds right up my alley. Thanks!
Man that Zen Delay is fun!
It really is!
Pretty fuckin sick. Haha I'd come over and jam.
FUCK!
NO OTHER WORDS!
That Zen delay is not simply a delay I guess, it also shape the characters of the sound itself. Amazing pedals. I might consider buy some external pedals instead of using my DAW to give sounds effects😂
😎
This song is probably about Elden Ring.
I have the same ❤
Hey. You started out drones style then you were making it more melodic. I have most of the gear you have shown here, yet my compositions that I have already done are very different. (I noticed that there's a very repetitiveness in the tracks that I have posted on my channel, I have a kinda way that I make tracks and I guess that's why they have the style they have.
I usually patch/program something then let it go. I don't really make music as a performance. I Also have recently noticed that the more gear that I accumulate,the more confusion can happen because there's too much options. (I recently was watching someone else patch a eurorack synth with three voices going and just the patching process was getting him boggled. I guess it depends how much you like to dive deep into the modular, I like it But I also like to be able to come out with ideas fast and not be too complicated in the process. Sometimes a small system is even more productive I guess. Just an opinion.
