Great to see someone using this as a musical instrument with a lot of skill getting a huge range of timbres and sounds from this little box of joy. I have yet to add my Model Cycles to my set up- I hear it plays nicely with the Digitakt (I love my Digitakt)!
Fast hands, Cycles Freak. You have mastered this instrument. This is a great demonstration of what it can do, with a skilled player. Best wishes for your continued success.
DANIELSSON Well for him he is performance and album centric. He has been at Elektron for a long time. He has this thing probably for months before some youtube reviewer. So he’s a mac who does play out rather than just post here and he gets early dibs.
Very cool new instrument! I've learned that you could give Dataline a cowbell and he would make it sound like Aphex Twin! I really loved the vibes of the second song, brought back memories of Radioheads Kid A album. You know Thom is going to figure one of these into his songs.
When I did my maths gcse back in the 80s I thought I should spice it up a bit. So I coloured the front and buttons of my calculator with black marker pen. Not knowing what each button did made finding the right answers a bit more of a challenge. I’m imagining that Cenk uses those stickers in a similar way.
reminds me 20 years ago when we used to watch autechre live sessions on electron boxes. this gear has always been great for live play. this here guy is using a 300 euros beatbox with six channels and it's heavy. the only thing i'm afraid of (but we will see with time if it's the case) is that this kind of fm synth machine might not be versatile enough when it commes to the sounds it can make. i heard a guy playing neurofunk with one, but it was still in that kind of metalic resonant dark ambiant sonar palette.
With one lfo and no filter, theres compromises to be made. Also nothing like notch filters in it. Have to be a creative to get neuro going on this one. But its pretty amazing little box. Makes some earth shattering kickdrums and basses too 😃
Beautiful compostions and execution. The Cycles and Sample seem like good cheaper alternatives to digitakt and digitone, but I think I still want that Digitakt.
Super model: cycles set. Really great work. I didn't see any pattern changes - was this filmed in separate takes for each song or is the set all cueued up with song mode? Inspirational stuff.
This is great for the dance floor and I like the sounds that come out of it. I’m considering to buy this to replace the drummer in my experimental punk band but can’t find any videos of people using it in context with a guitar etc. Maybe someone can point me somewhere? Cheers
When these came out I had zero interest because I saw them as the fisher price of Elektron but at $300 they’re actually pretty appealing. Even the lowest tier Elektron gear is still far superior
This is probably the best model cycles jam out here. Crazy composition, mad performance, amazing live play variations. Great job indeed! One little question: the compression ducking effect starting at 4:15 is achieved in post production right? Or did you somehow find a way to do it directly on the cycles itself?
@@kristianburghard1955 if you become familiar with an instrument like this you dont need the knob names after a while. I admit it is more impressive for an elektron product as it involves a lot of menu diving, but all the same.

An absolutely perfect set of music. Nice that it also shows off the new instrument, but the music is sublime in and of itself.
it's not a set, it's different pieces and video mounting ;)
@@aknekd how you know
@@aknekd does it really matter?
@@stickyfingazz2103 you can see the transitions between tracks
@@Evgenyus77 Yes because this who comment is wrong. This whole "set" is ass.
One of the most musical and creative electronic music minds out there. Well done Sir Cenk! Love the Model Cycles. FM for lyfe!
Fast hands, Cycles Freak.
You have mastered this instrument.
This is a great demonstration of what it can do, with a skilled player.
Best wishes for your continued success.
Damn. This is my favorite jam on the Cycles so far. Well done and thanks.
Even when your tones are soft, you go so hardcore on these machines! Hats off to you sir!
After watching this video, my Digitone just sits in the corner and refuses to make eye contact with me :)
Hahaha! Watch Ricky Tinez review of M.cycles , he has a similar moment
@@ShawTobias ahah, yeah, just watched it too
Both great machines, dn is deeper I prefer it
Just use both, and a subh, and a dfam, and two zoom pedals and bridge with circuit tracks running a freak and a td3mo...
I think you have driven this machine to 110% of its capabilities. Very impressive, congratulations
I love how you go through cycles, no pun intended, of smoothing it out and bringing it back just meander your way back into something crazy haha.
This song is just too good! One of the very few product demos that I return to because I like the song.
You are great at making me want to buy one when i know I personally won’t be able to get anywhere close to your level
Inspirational. Great set. If I buy one, it will be because of this performance. No other review inspired me so far.
one of the ONLY electronic musicians that knows his idiom and does it in a musically interesting way
Fantastic demo, much further than I thought this machine could go. You are a maestro of electronica.
beautiful performance on a beautiful piece of gear
Dataline is killing it on the Model:Cycles!
Ordered one tonight from Guitar Center, based on Red Means Recording demo video and this one.
By far, this is the BEST PERFORMANCE I'VE EVER SEEN! This machine will release a new genre. Keep up the good work!
agree
super tempo! strong rythm....
with a touch of electronic sounds - cool!
Sounds pretty amazing! Think this looks like a great instrument for live performance. Simple and tweakable!
I've always thought this machine could be a little Rian Treanor factory - here's the proof! Amazing work, nice one
That was freaking amazing, Cenk! Wow!
Sounds like that kid who plays a video game at an arcade, pressing all buttons concurrently to win the round
Must admit that was really well done ! I’ll definitely buy one because of this performance... thanks for sharing.
awesome demo by the Mr himself!
Gonna get one of these things soon. I hope I can reach near this level of mastery with it. Excellent work!
Holy sh**. You have mastered the cycles.
this instrument will become a legend like the monomachine.
F*cking awesome!! The sound quality, the modulations, the songs, just amazing!!
I didn’t get the pattern painted on your Cycles until I saw the manual. Nice touch!
Shared it on Elektron's youtube page, this demo makes you buy one instantly! incredible
I hear alittle of my Digitone in there. Nice!!! Hope they add that retrig to the DT! Awesome stuff
Yo this is fresh I love these there like the perfect tech dub machine
Excellent your an artist hadn't been able to make mine sound as 👍
best video i've seen on the model cycles seriously
*sigh*... this demo beats all the other youtubers demos by a loong way
Because he's an artist and not a youtuber. :)
@@kablehead Well, he is a youtuber as well as an artist. If you do youtube you're a youtuber haha. But of course, people have varying interpetations.
Also check out Perfect Circuit's new demo video, apparently by Baseck :)
DANIELSSON Well for him he is performance and album centric. He has been at Elektron for a long time. He has this thing probably for months before some youtube reviewer. So he’s a mac who does play out rather than just post here and he gets early dibs.
@@ubiquitousreverser I'm happy that this is the case :)
Doesn’t it seem like it’s in fast forward or something? Oh yeah! I forgot Mr Dataline is the Bruce Lee of Elektron gear. Nice tracks man!
speaking of playing this at 1.25x speed is siick
Really impressive little box for £300. Going to get one next time they're in stock. Good demo too.
excellent demo. thank you!
Ok, this the most amazing "one single instrument" set I have ever listened to. Modeselektor shoud see this. ;) Brilliant performance!
Cenk shows again that gear does not matter. What matters is skill and knowledge.
This is exceptionally good.
5:58 is a lovely piece..
Yeah burning my ears up on that 3:36 ish mark with the hits! Glad to see you dropped your video for this new piece.
Very very impressive. Fast and precise moves, it looks like it’s played at 2x 😂
This is how you play this instrument.
Very cool new instrument! I've learned that you could give Dataline a cowbell and he would make it sound like Aphex Twin! I really loved the vibes of the second song, brought back memories of Radioheads Kid A album. You know Thom is going to figure one of these into his songs.
bikesbeersnbeats! I for one am looking forward to the Model:Cowbells :)
You are totally right, Thom would love this!

Not knowing what each button did made finding the right answers a bit more of a challenge. I’m imagining that Cenk uses those stickers in a similar way.
its probably more like disabling subtitles for the people watching, to mute subvocalization during a performance
Beautiful!
Man, this was awesome. What a neat machine in the right hands.
Excellent Demo been watching a lot last days and this stood out
This video sold me on the Cycles. Awesome job!
Is the best that I've seen on the Elektron Models ever! You are crazy Mad!👧🙋✌💪Could you give me to save you track for my Lessons?
I guess the song at 8:00 shows that some pad sounds have attack on them, even though there is no attack knob.
Logged in just to say this is slick as hell
Awesome!

If I could I'd like this again a couple of times
you rock those elektron boxes 👌
sounds better than the analog rytm
two different synthesis types
Absolutely beautiful demo, Model:Cycles great Groovebox :-D
Elektron makes the best instruments, Cenk makes the best tutorials/performances 😎
this is the craziest demo I've seen.
The playing and mastery of The Elektron Model Cycles By MR.Dataline Was UNPRECEDENTED JUST AMAZING HIS Decoration Of said Groove Box 🤢🤮
Beautiful compostions and execution. The Cycles and Sample seem like good cheaper alternatives to digitakt and digitone, but I think I still want that Digitakt.
Wonderful performance! Amazing...
Super model: cycles set. Really great work.
I didn't see any pattern changes - was this filmed in separate takes for each song or is the set all cueued up with song mode?
Inspirational stuff.
Wait it this the M:C alone?
Running cycles around models 🤘
the piece at 10min in 🐚 🥀🌬 is giving me hypnagogic shocks
Magnificent stuff, Mr Dataline.
This is great for the dance floor and I like the sounds that come out of it. I’m considering to buy this to replace the drummer in my experimental punk band but can’t find any videos of people using it in context with a guitar etc. Maybe someone can point me somewhere? Cheers
cheers dataline's playing
Now I freaking want one! Nice work ❤️
When these came out I had zero interest because I saw them as the fisher price of Elektron but at $300 they’re actually pretty appealing. Even the lowest tier Elektron gear is still far superior
Love this!
Church of sound here, great!
This is really cool;!!! Well done!!

One little question: the compression ducking effect starting at 4:15 is achieved in post production right? Or did you somehow find a way to do it directly on the cycles itself?
Would have p-locked the volume on those steps, 'fake sidechain'.
You're crazy 🔥🔥🔥
Damn those stickers are a pain to the eye
Kristian Burghard love those stickers! Chaos can be beautiful. Looks like this music sounds!
@@jazzjeffjazzjeff what bothers me most is that the stickers also cover the text under the knobs. To each their own I guess!
@@kristianburghard1955 he plays with his eyes closed while dreaming.

@Murada yeah but its very similar to other elektron products
hey muy buen video saludos desde TIJUANA
amazing congrats!!!!
Dude I bought a Mc 707 today...cenk you gotta tell me when shit like this is coming out. Dropped the ball dude
novel idea...flying blind like that. I’m using Push like that sometimes by covering the disply to get some ideas on synth parts.
This is like a musical version of the white rabbit in matrix.
Sounds great as usual man
Stands up, claps hands.
Ok, ok wow I'm sold that was seriously gorgeous
This is The Very Best performance I've heard coming out of a Model:Cycles. I'm not so sure about the 're-design' of the machine though... 🤔
wow!! friggin' fantastic!! bravo!!
Would love to know the general settings for that arpy bit that plays in the 6:30 area(before and after)
I think a need a towel. Damn son. Awesome skills.
wow this is incredible
Amazing sound for the price 👌
8:42 is fucking insane need one asap omg
This guys doing more on this one bit of kit than i can do on my whole set up.........sigh 😔
Oh ,ein Erlkönig!😎👍🏻 leider werden die Displays schon wieder kleiner😢
did the results from the rorschach test came in yet?
