Ambient jam with the Arturia Polybrute and Soma Cosmos

[@jdcampbell1987]

You never rush the outro, and that is so important when you take us so far away. It's like breaking a hypnosis meditation - you have to count us back to the real world so we don't crash. Really fine work that continues to inspire and delight. Thank you again.

[@compucorder64]

I really like how this somehow reminds me of the way a good classical guitarist coaxes all these different timbres out of a fine concert guitar. It's the same instrument / sound at heart, but with different articulations the tonal changes are like different instruments. So, there's ponticello harpsichord noises, woody sul tasto muted pizzacato plucks. Then, the subtle timbre changes add a lot to the arrangement, but the fact it's the same instrument, bonds it together.

Stuff like this makes me so glad KZbin exists. You’re very good Jay. Keep doing what you do.

[@michalipski930]

man... I have discovered this video few hours ago and since then I have already checked your whole accound twice! I just realised that this is fresh creation :D I am one lucky bastard -> instant subscribtion

[@agerven]

This setup, played by you, really demonstrates how less is more. Catching, brilliant, ambient flow!

[@sillykanji]

I always come back to this channel and your videos. Thank you for sharing your mind.

[@AlysonArchibequeDavis-kv1bx]

Yes. Thank you. Your creations are perfect from my pov 🙏🏼

[@_alexxon]

I will never miss any of your video, and I love ‘em all🤩This delay is sooooo soothing, like rain drops’ echoes in the valley.

[@enochroot9438]

fantastic work on this, the Polybrute is a dream of a synth to play

[@bondi5000]

Flipping hell!! Loved it, especially the last few minutes - emotional and so much feeling. 👏👏

[@donaldpriola1807]

Nice. You kept a theme to keep the chaos together.

[@perefaucon]

Brilliant. The last minutes are so delicade.

[@sergedinatale7241]

All I can say is you’ve done it again!

[@JeanDearCanada]

the reverb/echo really sets this in a place, misty, dreamy, far away.

[@Mbah_Dukun_Nyerutu]

Wooooo, super beautiful Jay!

[@DreamscapesMusicCinema]

Absolutely Amazing Jay! Thank you for this wonderful music presentation. I have a Polybrute and will soon have. Cosmos! Lol. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.

[@Kung_Fu_Jesus]

Very inspiring, great dynamics and shows off share depth of tone of the Matrixbrute. Thanks for the upload.

[@levraichris3321]

This one is the polybrute, it's 6 voices poly

[@gregbeaudry]

Always great to see on a Monday morning✌🏻

[@PiotrstrashcanŚmietnikPiotra]

I am still very new to the world of synths and I don't understand how it's done but I enjoy watching your videos a lot!!

[@jordanparrott4357]

AT 3:30ish, the CLASSIC Hosking melancholy with a sublayer of hope comes in . . . and the journey begins. Been listening to your music for years now and I always look forward to the way you put music together with such emotion.

[@squoblat]

Damn this is a nice synth. I was going to buy a prophet 6, but I think I might have to get one of these instead.

[@LukeCorradine]

Finally something special out of this synth! well done ;)

[@nicolasargot7701]

brillant performance. The Polybrute sounds so good ! Bravo

[@Chindogu133]

Love your jams!

[@istvantoth7431]

If Soma had not done anything else, just the Cosmos, they would still be eternally praised for that.

[@jberca]

Wonderfull Jay! Your music inspire and relax

[@MrDschiesus]

that was so beautiful, jay. you beautiful soul, you! ;)

[@carbonvibes]

Beautiful sound, it feels so short in time and it’s 8 minutes long. 🔥🔥🔥

[@willswitchcraft]

excellent as usual.........I'm not sure if it was intensional, but you've listed the Cosmos as a Drifting 'Loop' Station (instead of Memory). I so rarely hear a Polybrute, esp. for ambient - the two pieces of gear are a great combo.....so beautiful - the way you've eased out of this, creating a dynamic shift in the intensity, top end, etc. .....a really Killer ending

[@voflondor]

Thanks for more subtle sounds that are a pleasure to listen to~

[@mark35mi]

Loved this. Bravo.

[@thedeepblueskys]

I have been wanting to get the Cosmos for a while now, and after listening to this, I’m sure of it.

[@ambntman4212]

The root sounds like Philip Glass "An Opening" Which is a complement in my humble opinion. Love your playing Jay! PolyBrute is amazing too!

[@bababooie9420]

New upload yesss!! Awesome piece :)

[@garaughty]

Gorgeous track, brilliant work on this Jay !

[@synthusiast2911]

Thank you for this beautiful music! A new video from you is always the perfect end to a stressful day/week 😉😀.

[@Winterdagen]

So gorgeous Jay!

[@nikiji9593]

Really nicely done !

[@kenb7540]

Just lovely. Beautiful music, great set-up. 👏👍🙏

[@wolfgangschwarz6122]

Super!

[@jeraldliu1590]

this is really beautiful!❤

[@jaustin753]

I just added both to my studio.(merry Christmas to me lol) Polybrute comes monday, cosmos got here yesterday. Both are superior in my style of music.(ambient & medatation) beautiful demo song btw. Kudos from Florida USA

[@andyjey3126]

Absolutely beautiful. Love it and even replaced it with my Andromeda A6. And that's saying something...

[@WildernessMusic_GentleSerene]

Amazing how long we wait for great original patches on great synths. Just this month I am beginning to hear what this Brute and the HydraSynth can do. Obviously the Soma is creating all sorts of strange delays too! This jam is AMBIENCE at its best.

[@rickhopkinsonfilms2692]

What a cracking pairing of great kit. Both of which I have my eyes on haha...

[@rickhopkinsonfilms2692]

And nicely played... a great journey

[@PaulJohnsonUK]

So sorry to see you had a knock to your Polybrute. But still you can get beautiful sounds out of it. You are very talented.

[@LuisTorres-qz5kr]

Just beautiful, thanks for sharing!

[@efebehardev]

Because of you I need to find money for PolyBrute. very cool!

[@chatolars]

Beautiful

[@ambientsession]

It sounds like for hope to a better world, very nice👌

[@000n_68]

insane aftertouch moves there, sounds incredible! if only i were rich too...

[@synthsamuraiproductions]

This is pure synth butter smooth and and creamy and fat as a hell. Amazing.

[@awpMusic1]

puts Cosmos on the shopping list - maybe someday

[@ursullavandenbord2322]

Fantastic !!!

[@quilubru]

Toujours au top ! Bravo

[@JSprayaEntertainment]

very nice ... thank you

[@62borneo]

Amazing!!!!!!

[@mchockney3664]

Looking forward to digging into this setup soon. So, are both master outputs from the Polybrute connected via TS cables to the Cosmos?

[@petrus3502]

Very good job, nice sounds 👍

[@wanderlustvision]

which firmware are you using on the soma?

[@JayHosking]

Just the standard firmware it ships with.

[@megadead]

Lovely this, cheers

[@pfmmodule5144]

Very cinematic

[@rodzeroher]

Hi Jay, love your work. COuld you add the name of the tracks here on YT so it is easier to find the tracks on spotify and bandcamp? your music has become a very important part of my day.

[@TheNimasan]

i am a modlar addict but this piece of gear was my fav on the last superbooth. i sat 3 days in a row on it. i don't own one yet, but i need to have it....no matter what. do you konw if their newer batch has the rythmic firmware on it??!! or do you stlll need to download it?? beautiful piece of music as always my man!!!

[@DrRussPhd]

Never had a synth, been playing guitar for decades but have been looking a different synths. This is the kind of stuff I would love to do. There is a used Polybrute on the local CL. I'm having trouble pulling the trigger as this looks very complex for a beginner like myself. I do love this composition you posted. Very Blade Runnerish. :)

[@JayHosking]

Hey, that's great to hear! And thanks for the kind words. This one is a little complex for a beginner, yeah, and with the presets would mean that you often don't know what the parameters are dialled in at. My personal opinion would be to get something that is what-you-see-is-what-you-get, i.e. no presets. They sound just as good, and also teach you how to build synth sounds at the same time. Best of luck!

[@bioni76]

This is great! Heard a little Daft Punk in there to

[@WildernessMusic_GentleSerene]

The matrix of the Poly and Matrix brutes is incredible, your patch doesn't sound like a normal Arturia patch....thankfully :) (I have a MicroBrute) For those who consider a modular rack, but don't want the investment, this PolyBrute is next best, or better choice.

[@djwickit]

very nice

[@lunarglytch6578]

Goddamn fine work here. I wonder if there is any solution that would duplicate functionality of Cosmos on software side. I'd love to give an ambient jam a try.

[@sailence5757]

you have an idea of an arrangment of an improvisation you bout to play, before u play it? or its just 100% on the spot?

[@JayHosking]

It varies every time, but usually I have an idea of key, and/or a melody idea.

[@MrEMann]

Very nice use of both the polybrute and the cosmos. I'm trying to get my hands on a cosmos but they seem to be as rare as "unobtanium". Subbed from this video alone.

[@MarlinForbes]

I got mine yesterday from Thomann, waited less than a month.

[@JayaLove]

So beautiful. What algorithm are you using on the Cosmos?

[@SteveMc870]

Not totally sure where I went while listening to this, but could have hung out there for a long time.

[@JayHosking]

This is my experience with the Cosmos. It just takes me places. My favourite jam tool right now.

[@NiElsir]

Very nice!

[@outerspacebass]

Sounds like the arturia has beautiful reverbs available

[@m.g.kroger]

Video and music super very nice. Please, remember not all of us are english mother language, the text is disappearing super fast (to my skill and I speak english quite a bit), I had to stop continuously to read... give it some more seconds, please... GREAT MUSIC!!!

[@modeswitching]

Good old Cassette RFI :) But what happened to your PB’s ribbon??

[@JayHosking]

Yeah, great patch! (Added a bunch of reverb, of course.) Ribbon got bonked by a stand! First time I've had it happen, too.

[@final_mile_music9713]

Have you scratched your polybrute? 🥺

[@Tyetheberious]

Been waiting for this one - this is great, thanks! (PS: did you drop something on your Polybrute?)

[@JayHosking]

I did! Heartbreaking (but thankfully not Polybrute breaking)

[@Tyetheberious]

@@JayHosking Just adds character then, hehe.

[@JayHosking]

@@Tyetheberious Hah!

[@Tyetheberious]

@@JayHosking I had to purge a fair bit of gear over the last few months, but I am picking up a Polybrute tomorrow - going to be a late night!

[@pthomas36]

Still my most holiest of grail synths. One day...

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

✨🔝✨

[@lntellectualrap1522]

Неожиданно красиво звучит

[@michalipski930]

It reminds of Estas Tone music

[@jaceklebioda]

Ooohhhh….

Beautiful performance, thank you ❤
