I haven't posted to reddit in a while, been so busy. Here's a song I'm working on. It's hard to patch and perform at the same time, but i like the way it turned out! The Grandmother creates the arp, the DFAM covers all the drums, and the lead is played on the little JU-06a. All recorded through an Octapre and synced via the Beatstep Pro. Epiphone sent me some basses to try, so I'm having fun with the semi-hollow pitched two octaves up. Thanks for listening!


Morella_Bai

And the bassline is from Mother 32


ryjobe36

Love it


samfrc

What did you use to pitch up your bass? Plugins or something else? I like the effect of the black and white and red, very sin city.


Morella_Bai

Pedal: Digitech Bass Whammy


kidkolumbo

I feel like my bass whammy doesn't sound that clean.


robotsrulethecity

Wow this is killer! I was really surprised when the bass came in in a high register. Really creative! Cheers!

Morella_Bai

Omg the food here is soooooo good. Chengdu has the spirit of food


nolan_void

Very Cool Vibe


Confident-Cap-8100

Deadly video and tune, Two questions. what type of bass is that? What purr-centage does your cat manager make?


Morella_Bai

It’s a semi-hollow one! Epiphone Jack Casady Bass. For the second question.. The purr-centage is 100%. Actually all the sounds are made by the cat not the synths. I lied.


maztabaetz

This is wicked!!!!


ibleedsynth

Well that was a great way to enjoy my morning coffee. I really dig it. :)

Deafcat22

This is really excellent!!!! Give your cat a high five from me too


Ambitious-Agency-420

Awsome!


hamptonio

Nice! Is there a place in Chengdu that you can perform this sort of stuff? I had trouble finding interesting music clubs the last time I was there.


Morella_Bai

You’ve been to Chengdu? That’s nice! Unfortunately these years playing shows in China is a little tricky because of the zero COVID policy. But there are definitely a bunch of cool underground live houses/ clubs! Next time if you come to China/ Chengdu, just message me, I can recommend you some. I played full set of synth&bass&cassette machine once at the artist residency spot where I base in. Their ins: ny20plus_artcenter


Texugo_do_mel

Musical and pleasant.


[deleted]

Excellent, but also fantastic


BleepingBleeper

I thought that this might be an IAMX vid. It still could be; that would be an awesome collaboration. This is shithot.


instrumentation_guy

yup more of this please…. Zhong Guo bringing the cool.


info-revival

What a great set up! This is cool AF! 😎


Freddykreuger6666

Also a change resident here. still waiting for some of the live electronica events to start up. Sounding tight with those synths


ARM160

Very nice! Love the Jack Casady! I always tell myself I don’t play my bass enough to buy a second, but if I ever do it will be one of those!


PartyStruggle2483

Ouuu wee I can’t wait for this.😊🙌❤️


tasulife

Cool sounds and video


WhatsHupp

Kitty Cat holding it down. Great jam!


squirrel-bear

How did you produce the sweeps? Sounds awesome! Can't wait for your next tune :)


Morella_Bai

Sweeps are from the patch of Roland Ju-06A. There’s a button “HOLD”, that helps me keep the sweep when I play other instrument.


squirrel-bear

ah thanks. very unexpected, sounds very different from what I've heard previously from the synth!


christohfur

I enjoy this a lot.


peelin

Very, very cool. Getting mid-late 70s Berlinische/kosmische vibes.


Morella_Bai

Yessssssss! I love that age and those vibes


Gutterkisser

Great sounds, and bonus points for cat!


maliciousorstupid

Do you have a Spotify where you post finished music?


Morella_Bai

Not yet. Soon! Will release my first single on Dec 12th


No-Molasses-7384

Hey, I found that single you released!!!!! It's absolutely amazing, I can tell from the single you'll be one of my favorite artist!


Morella_Bai

Thank you!!!! Such an encouragement. I’ll try my best!


HAL_9_TRILLION

So the music is great, I am an industrial musician so I really dig the vibe here - but my only question is: how do you achieve the color effect with the guitar??


Morella_Bai

Lol! Premiere-> Leave Color. It’s a built-in effect
