released music made with linnstrument, and a trippy video

[mpgarate]

Hi fellow Linnstrumentalists, I just released an EP with my LS200 controlling orchestral elements (mainly using SWAM). Piano is the main focus of the record, and I recorded that with a Nord keyboard. My simple use of the linnstrument will probably not "wow" the many fine players I've listened to here, but the controller did exactly what I wanted, which was to give me careful control over performing each note (pressure, pitch, bow position, etc). Quality notes more than complex ones, giving some color to the piano parts. Maybe over time my linnstrument technique will catch up to my piano playing and I will compose some deeper back-and-forth melodies.

The EP is available on Spotify and other streaming apps. I recommend listening to "Slime" if you want to hear the most linnstrument-driven track. Other than the piano, everything is done with linnstrument + SWAM.

I also wrote up an artist statement here:

And the trippy music video for "Jade". I used the linnstrument for the flutes at 2:20-2:42.

Thanks to Roger and to the users of this forum- I picked up a lot of tips here that made this possible! And as a piano player I was thrilled to have a controller giving me more options for expression.

Cool stuff Michael, I definitely hear the expressive elements in Slime and can see how the LinnStrument was a perfect fit for that. My condolences to you, losing a furry co-pilot is always difficult and their absence can be profound.
