Hello dear friends!

Here's Greencross' 45th electronic music video for the Blockchain.

Welcome to KeinDAW, a @DLive exclusive series of #techno and electronic music live jams recorded in one take and posted 'as is'.

KeinDAW episode is titled: 'Wet Fusion'.

'Wet Fusion' is the result of experimenting with melodies within a 1-bar broken beat techno drum pattern.

KeinDAW?

KeinDAW isn't DAWless!: since I'm not 100% without a DAW here, because I'm using Ableton Live 10 for recording and appliying live effects such as reverb, tape delay and compression.

Live Jam what?:

Live Jam Take, means that this was a single take recording. Unedited and without any prost-production. You are listening as it sounded. I'm just recording a jam that will be later edited and prepared for commercial use.

Playing the following instruments:

Elektron Digitakt, Make Noise 0-Coast, Dreadbox Hades, Moog Minitaur.

This jam was recorded today.

In one take. Unedited. Unmixed. Mistakes included.

KeinDAW: How did I do this?

First I spent some time shaping the sound palette I was going to use for this jam before recording.

If you are interested in watching the process from the very beginning, I have posted the WorkFLOW to compose one of my previous jams 'Logical Patterns' from scratch here (absolutely boring if you are not into music production).

Then I created a simple sequence and started improvising over it, while recording in audio / video.

This KeinDAW live jam you are watching has been recorded after having the sounds already defined, and part of the sequence already prepared.

This jam was sequenced only from my Elektron Digitakt, an 8 voice digital drum computer and sampler, which happens to have one of the best sequencers in the world. It's the "brain" of this live rig.

This live jam was multi-tracked into Ableton Live 10 (meaning each instrument's audio output was recorded as a separate file, for the sake of being able to edit and post-produce it later) using a MOTU UltraLite MK1 as Audio Interface.

Audio gear used:

* Drum Machine:

Elektron Digitakt

* Synthesizers:

####MakeNoise 0-Coast / Dreadbox Hades / Moog Minitaur

* Audio Interface:

MOTU UltraLite MKI

* Hardware Audio Effects

Befaco Spring Reverb (Effecting 0-Coast)

Software Aidio Effects (Running on Ableton Live 10)

Find out more about my VST effects on my next episode of Kein DAW on @DLive. I'll be giving a great description with links!. Some of them are high quality freeware!

The next step?

To edit the track on a DAW (Ableton Live 10 or maybe Bitwig) and have it ready for mastering. Then sign it on a record label or release it on my own
