59 Perlen
May 30, 2021
"Pearl" is a truly special Digitakt performance. It not only runs at a totally unusual speed, it's also short, arranged in a very classical song structure, it's based on melodies instead of the usual 59 Perlen textures and it was originally produced with Ableton.
Yep, this is one of the tracks I wrote but never finished. After I started producing with Digitakt only, we all know what happens, unfinished tracks get forgotten and this is one of them. Until I heard it on my own instagram channel some days ago and decided to give it another try.
I rendered some loops out out the original arrangement, completely dry, and created this pattern with them. I have to say, really adore the main melodies and I ask myself over and over again how I was able to create these hahaha
I hope you gonna like this pretty unusual track of mine as much as I do. I release it on my Birthday and It's a little gift for myself actually :)
I performed and recorded the track in front of the breathtaking mountains in the heart of the Swiss Cantone of Wallis close to Sion. I plan to make more performances like this in the near future and show you more of the Swiss nature in my videos.
Have a look at my Digitakt Online Class! It's a video course focussed on creating tracks with the Elektron Machine. It covers LFOs, Arrangement, Performing, Digitakt FX and many other interesting topics.
