0:58 “I want to keep it simple”. Tom saying that with that wall of gear behind him made me LOL
Legend has it that Tom only sleeps for one hour every 4 days
I think Tom sleeps well. Good sleep is key to perform at the highest levels like he and his team do.
Legend has it that his brain is really the master clock for all the synths
Once every 4 days?! …so basically every time something new happens in the patch? 😂
God almighty created a rock that He himself could not lift.
Legend has it Tom picked it up and chucked it.
I had the impression that Buchla was going to jump out of my monitors and eat me alive, what an amazing sound!
This series is next level, what a treat. nice one! thanks for sharing
Nice demonstration! I really love how each person can get totally unique things out of modular!
We see these in the early years of YMO's live performance. Love the sound.
Great performance man, love it 🔥👍🙏🏻🙌🏻
Thank you Tom! 😊 Getting to hear what all this can let you make, helps with the absorption of all this information. ❤
Damn, what a treat. Thanks so much for these amazing soundscapes.
@@defcreator187 I bet it would sound great with a movie.
@@defcreator187 For someone that can't get enough of a record scratch and the sounds of an 808, you'd think you'd be more appreciative of the beauty of simplicity.
Grand Maestro, stellar performance ✨🎛✨
P.S.: I agree, Alessandro Cortini is great!
That was a trip to listen too!!! WOW!!!
🤯😲🤩😍😎
Looks like are having a ton of fun there 😃
reminds me a bit of random xs / fading away. cool that you are back and thx for doing this. highly apreciate, that you are using a mic now.
Suuupercool presentation Tom, thanks!
OMG! One simple Sine wave, incredible!! 🤪
Amazing!
A master at work!
Brilliant video! More more more please!
Sounds awesome
This is really amazing!
Sounds excellent.
Love it!!
Sounds so cool 👌
😮 Amazing stuff!! Thanx for sharing!
Sounds insane 🔥🔥🔥
That was a really impressive demonstration!
Wow! Inspirational and meserizing, very inventive!
First modular performance I felt a connection and experience from. well done!
Love it! Thanks ✌🏼
Sounds amazing! Never get rid of this rig. Do not sell it.
20k for him is peanuts
20K 🤣🤣🤣@@PedroMiguel-if3ll
He could just give it to me!
Wow man, that is the most interesting I have heard in yrs. You inspired me to run to my synths, oh oh where'd the time go.
Fantastisch,.. Omhoog en Omhoog.
I'm a huge fan of autopan, so I absolutely loved this!
Awesome
super cool
very cool piece Tom! 🙌
I love how quickly this escalated from “one oscillator” to “future Mad Max score”
Woah! Here we go!
Yes! More Buchla!
I've had the rare opportunity to learn and use a Buchla in college (*ahem* - way back) and it is a mighty instrument. Thank you for sharing - this brings back memories (and, um, maybe I'll have to get my own now ;-)
I see you plunked down on “The Buchla Starter Kit” 😂
I now keep a JBL Bluetooth speaker in my work truck since you started uploading videos again 😊
Very nice.
Also worth mentioning Suzanne Ciani of course, who has been using Buchla modular from 70s and still is.
No stop!!!!!! MORE!!!! MOOOOOOREEEEEE!!!!
Tom ❤
Yeah, crazy exciting system.
It’s interesting to see how to see how you’re thinking / approaching it.
I’m trying to plot my own path into modular.. and this content is really helpful.. in some mysterious way that I don’t quite understand. Maybe it just helps to reinforce some big picture idea of where I want to go.. to see you actualizing something similar?
great real-time chase scene music for action or sci-fi on the Buchla 🙂
So cool! Thanks for sharing. I was just thinking it'd be great to add some tape delay or something too like an old Marantz or reel to reel possibly. Cheers from Seattle.
a couple of low and high string Ostinato`s and some low brass you got the new Mad Max theme :D
Brilliant demo Tom
spaced lekker! Groeten uit Nijmegen :)
Insane stereo field and depth. What was the reverb used ?
Fantastic! Please check the French Buchla Master Lionel Bauchet (starts12 years ago) for instance the video: Introductory March to the Secret Society
Id love too see Tom's electric bill😂
Brilliant video as always
That was a very cinematic vibe you had going. Have you ever thought of doing film soundtracks?
Is this a real suggestion, or are you taking the p#ss? Check IMDB under his name Tom Holkenborg - just a small selection of the movies he did the soundtrack for: Mad Max - Godzilla - Rebel Moon - Terminator - Justice League (Zack Snyder) - Deadpool - 300 rise of an empire - and many many more - guy is becoming a certified legend
@@robbertroos7513 I know! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OMG, this is such a greatest Eurorack performance! Thank you for sharing this! The great thing is that this can be also used as an underscore. Please please do patch breakdown. I eager to know how you make those various sounds from one oscillator.
More Buchla than Eurorack, Amigo.
@@KentBuchlaAh, you're right. My bad😝
🔥🔥🔥
1 oscillator, impressive and high quality sounds.
Wow, SO cool! Nobody would complain if you went even longer next time ;)
Get with Scott Manley and do a DJ Session with the Euro.....
Damn 🤯
Any post processing on this?
You moved to Amsterdam and already making Hypnotic Techno
Or making up how an angry digital dinosaur would sound like 🙂
❤❤
Boat 3 has gone fishing
JXL cosmic modular space ambient album when?
how about: putting together a crazy live sequencing custom rack, and do an hour long improv using all of *both* systems, totally dawless, for next 'jamuary', hmm? what do you say? id love to hear a live set that uses all the oscillators, (maybe robthebloke inspired)?
i love that you can use these instruments to layer samples, but i want to see you control both of them live, dawless, tbh.
cheers. peace. namaste. ☮
Can really hear that spectral processor
💙
Jemig man… speel dat live in en club en ik trip met een colaatje ❤
stuur dan wel even een invite 🍻
So I put out the fancy headphones for this and now Im not sure how I could listen to this in the best quality possible. If I so 4k the audio gets better as well or just the visuals?
A question on sound design, for Rebel Moon Part 1 there's a moment where someone points a huge rifle at Kora's face, and the music and audio goes quiet and you just hear this scary evil sound.
Did you do that Tom? Where does doing the music and doing the audio end?
😲😲😲😲🤯
XL any sound pack in the future to DL ?
This sounds amazing however, how do one get to record these sequences into a DAW?
Pretty much the same way you'd record any other synthesizer, just patch the modular's audio output to the input of the recording interface which converts the analog audio to digital. 🙂
@@JohnLRice You're a star! Thank you so much for the advice on this, much appreciated 😊
@@mass-1128 You're welcome! 🙂
Thanx Tom for sharing your experience with the Buchla system🙏! it sounds so fantastic🖤! A little tip for a nice artist who creating amazing music with Buchla too, she‘s calls Tamix, here on youtube. Maybe you’ll find time to watch her videos;-) Greetings 🖖👽
❤☕️🙌
!!! Can we get Dropbox wave files of these sessions? That would be great. Maybe a donation to charity for them? Sounds great.
I love this stuff but know almost nothing about it. How does this fit in to the creation of a soundtrack/score, etc? The performance part doesn't seem very repeatable.
Doesn't have to be repeatable, I think it's more about the creative improvisation in the moment. He explains he records sessions like this as audio into Cubase and then uses parts of it in larger compositions.
You'd be better off with a digital polysynth
How do you even plan to build such a complex system?
Hi Junkie! Will you upload the songs from the new Godzilla x Kong movie?
Really like noisy final part texture after 8:00 mark
I estimate that maybe 90% of the sound's atmosphere stems from the 2 'simple' effects you use. It would be interesting to hear what all that equipment is up to without those 2 sound effects.
if you put this at 1.5x is another experience too
Thanks Tom for the performance. Some of this would be killer in Deadpool ;)
You're probably not going to reach for this if you have to score a movie in a month. I used to own a few of Hans Zimmers' Buchla modules and apparently he let them go because they weren't immediate enough. Which is true. You have to spend time with them and get to learn them.
Well, Tom somehow has more hours in his days than regular people so I think maybe he'd still go for it ;)
How would several detuned saw osc sound thru this patch with shorter attack times... Nice setup for inspiration but I would prefer an fm approach to a get similar sound, teher are many road to the same destination. 😅
I watched a guy do this back in the late seventies... only difference is... He wore a lab coat.
I wonder if I’m allowed to type the number on the shirt in the comments lol
The question is, is it worth 25k when many VSTi can create these kind of sounds?
What if you don’t have a computer?
@@LoveMeBack Do you know any music composer/producer that does not own a computer?
If you enjoy making music with the VST on the computer, and it never feels like something that gets in the way of your creative process, or better yet, if you feel so at home on the computer that it’s a really inspiring sound making tool, that’s a great way to proceed. If you’d rather use hardware because the computer doesn’t feel right for you or your creative process, this is a great way to proceed.
@@kevinbatchelor9566Fully agree, to each their own.
@@kevinbatchelor9566 I also certainly prefer to compose on the piano and play my hardware synths, but would not spend 25k to make these kind of sounds.
I guess for Junkie, all that money is just peanuts.
you could buy a house with the price of that thing
🥱my car makes those sounds.
такая дороговизна ради просто шумовой ритмической экспериментальщины:)
Chuck Norris is only afraid of one thing, Tom in a studio
….oh…..another…Buchla…video….how…..exciting……
ADHD nightmare...lol.
My ears are bleeding
probably from your own music.
What a waste of money.
Awesome
