A new track

Yesterday I recorded some new audio.

Still trying to tame the Macbeth M5 and Digisound, by controlling them with my new Korg ESX.

Long story short

I had a huge Doepfer modular, but I just didn't like it that much.
It was the sound that didn't do it for me. So after 3 years or so, I decided to sell it.

Once it was sold, I had money......to spend.
So in came the gear lust.

After a long search I found a Serge soupkitchen panel on Ebay. Bought it and waited in anxiety for it to arrive.
When it was finally here, I found myself a bit dissapointed...........was this small thing that expensive. (size does matter?)

After 3 weeks of playing with it, I decided that the Serge wasn't my thing and I decided to trade it for a Macbeth M5(Much bigger.........still shouldn't matter)

This is my first encounter with the M5 and my most viewed Youtube till now:

JenaMusic also on Soundcloud

Soundcloud......I love it.

I made myself an account, and now I can share my audio pollution with the world.

HardSoft Modulae

Here a a movie with a nice view at my studio.
You can see part of the Macbeth M5, Digisound 80 modular, MS20 and my Formant which I sold just yet.

I sold it because I wanna buy myself a new eurorack system



New old movie

This is my first Youtube attempt.
It was a short movie, made with the internal cam of the macbook and edited with Imovie.

It's starring the Tenori on(which I sold later, cause it's just a very expensive toy, with a bad OS).

I't also show some of my vector art.

Brand new start

Ok people,

here is my brand new start off the JenaMu6 weblog.

I started this blog in 2004 and then forgot all about it.
I even quit music for a while, but then I got bitten by the modular bug again. So now I'm recording regulary and publish these audio bits on the net, sometimes even accompanied by a nice youtube movie.

That's why I reannimating this blog, to keep people updated about my work.

Hope you enjoy.

Jean
