This year I have been getting into the spirit of Jamuary. You are supposed to do a Jam every day and post it. I haven't been able to do that but have made a start:

Equipment:
Jam using
Volca Drum
Volca Bass
Volca FM
Some reverb added to the drums and FM in Logic
Bandcamp
Music with progressive intent.

Nice job, never easy to do a live jam and liked how it progressed. I don't have any units with pretty flashing lights to make my jams worth recording. Unless you want to hypnotise people watching my Schrittmacher go back and forth :)
I invite you to 'voyage' over to https://adrianearnshaw.com, sign up for some fun e-mail 'blasts', and look forward to helping you launch your ears - and projects - into the stratosphere.

Thanks biodiode. It's an idea where you are not meant to be too precious about things and just play. My biggest problem is I am a guitar player with wide fingers and these synths have small keybeds. I have to be careful not to hit the wrong note. Although sometimes a bit of Jazz isn't such a bad thing. ;)

This reminded me of "On the Run" brought to us by via Korg instead of EMS. The FM sounds are quite impressive, and the Dalek adds some menace to the atmosphere.

Re: fat fingers - I have similar problems with some laptop keyboards.

Good work :)

Nice synth jam. I need to get myself a synth or two.

The Volca drums and FM synth are sounding quite good. And, of course, a Dalek is an essential piece of studio equipment. :borg:

Nice work, sir!

Thanks Tim. I think I need to add a token something to the synths, hence the Dalek. When it was given to me it used to say Dalek things and move. Sadly it is a quiet menace now... The Volca FM was my biggest surprise, I thought it wold not get used as much as some of the others but I find myself drawn to it...

Thanks Frantz. The FM has become my favourite of the volcas even though I wasn't sure about it at the start. It is compatible with the original DX7 in terms of parameters and you can load patches from DX7s into it!! Only 3 note polyphony though...

Allomerosaurus,
You are clearly using advanced space alien technology. A bit repetitive, but otherwise pretty cool! I'm sure it wouldn't be quite the same without the reverb: that adds a lot to the atmosphere. Nice video and song. :)
