Techno Hardgroove with ONE pocket operator: PO33 KO!
Thank you for watching 🖤 Support the channel ✨ ko-fi.com/pockettrax/ ✨
I've always been interested in old-school techno hardgroove, but somehow I never explored it with pocket operators. Until this year's Dekmantel, when I saw the incredible Regal86 live, I was inspired and felt that it was time to do something with the PO-33 KO!. There's something magical about the rhythm and groove of an old good hardgroove techno.
When I started composing this music, I quickly realized that the PO33 is in fact perfect for exploring this genre of music. We can easily shape and cut the rhythms, add effects as if they were handmade, almost in a primitive and raw way. The way good techno should be. The result is here.

Thank you for watching 🖤 Support the channel ✨ ko-fi.com/pockettrax/ ✨ This track was inspired by the golden years of TV shows like Dancin on Air or The Grind (the ones with real house like when David Morales attended), where people danced like there was no tomorrow to the rhythm of a DJ.

    • @pockettrax
      @pockettrax 10 днів тому

      Actually I happen to think about it sometimes. The thing is that I like it and always end up doing this format of pocketable tracks (also aligned with the vision with which I started this channel). I also feel that they end up not being boring for my creative process and for those who listen haha. Plus, I feel that the limit of patterns on the POs ends up leading to this format (in a positive way, it stimulates the creative process and makes things more interesting imo). But maybe it's time to think about creating some long format tracks with the POs too.

    • @pockettrax
      @pockettrax 17 днів тому

      Hey, thanks! Yes, I confirm that. I've also noticed that the LEDs aren't very visible, because the holes for each LED are tiny. (If you look at my latest hardgroove techno video with this case, you can't see the LEDs during the performance, because the lights in my studio are quite intense). It's not a real deal breaker for most people (since you can see a little bit) but for me it's something I value. I've already shared this with VH Makes and it looks like it will be revised in a future iteration, perhaps with slightly larger holes.

Still, for me the real KO2 is the SP-404 mk2, it's like a PO33 on steroids. I actually have one, but I haven't paid practically any attention to it because of the POs.

    • @pockettrax
      @pockettrax 19 днів тому

      Thanks homie, much appreciated! Yes, I used the filter a lot for this track. In the intro I used it live to introduce the arpeggio as you can see. Also in the breakdown I used the filter (added previously with live recording) to attenuate the intensity of the synth line. I also used it to make small surgical adjustments to several elements in order to give more rhythm and dynamics. The PO33 filter is a real swiss army knife for sound design imo.
