Love the vibe
Happy 2026!
Tonverk is fun
Not happy with this one, but going to a wedding so had to commit:
Jamuary26 02. Four stems on the Octatrack, one of which was itself made on the Octatrack in the first place. EZBOT’s Hybrid 4x4 performance template for the transitions (plus some smoothing out of my cack-handedness in post).
This is my first year I am participating in this and I hope I will make it as I’m chronically ill and sometimes have days where my brain is so foggy that I just can’t do anything
Instruments used Synthstrom Deluge
Me and a buddy jamming yesterday
Number 02. Move with Syntakt samples.
Day 2, deconstruct.
Soma RoAT and Behringer JT-4000M through an M-VAVE Pocket Amp. A wee improvised jam played live, very derivative but hey, I had fun!
Second jam, this time not psychedelic but a bit more 80’s/pop/synthwavey… maybe? ![]()
Day 2: my partner did most of the heavy lifting on this one. All I added was some live percussion, but she did a great job laying down the vibe
Using Jamuary as a way of learning the OP-XY, here a rough jam straight into AUM on the iPad.
My first jam with the AR mk2. Lame and muddy but it’s a start ![]()
I spent way too much time trying to make cool looking video for this one. Used NI Thrill for some cool textural elements and played a little guitar too.
Btw, Pexels rules for grabbing some free stock video to use.
My Jamuary nr. 2 on the Digitakt turned out pretty wonky ![]()

Gonna try Jamuary this year. This is not entirely in the spirit since I worked on it more than one night, but I finished up the jam last night so I’ll count it. I’m trying to start jamming out my songs instead of relying on song mode, so this is a first attempt. DN2, DT2 and Mood Mk2.

AR MKI + Faderfox MX12. Approx. 1.5 hours starting from a blank project. I don’t have much experience with recording performances and haven’t yet configured the MX12 to control interesting parameters. I am so glad I am doing NGNY26 because it will allow me to focus on getting comfortable with this amazing setup.
