KiNK with Roland MX-1, MFB 522 and Tom 1501

Here im using the Roland MX-1 digital mixer with analog gear, MFB 522 for drums and the rare Russian analog poly synth Tom 1501. The keyboard doesnt have any sequencing functions, memory or effects, so I`m animating the sound entirely with the MX-1. In order to have sustained sounds, I stick the keys with tape or just play them by hands. The slicing / pitching pattern in MX-1 was programmed before shooting the video. I didn`t programmed it during the session, just because I got that groove going, before i press record. I liked it so much and I decided to keep it for the video. I hope you like it too

When kink pulls out the tape he means business!

[@DjStinger]

XD !!!!!!

[@MLCFonon]

stinger TV Ever heard of a so called hold pedal ?

[@tellermotion]

+MLC Fonon its hard to dance with one foot on the pedal ;-)

[@KosmoDeuz]

+MLC Fonon no pedal for that synth

[@kenfusion]

sticky keys. I use lead sinker weights from my saltwater tacklebox. easier to move around. gotta get the big ones and smush them to fit size of keys , then put rubber no-skid stuff .

[@headshock1111]

The moment I saw tape the like button was immediately pressed.

[@stocchinet]

I permanetely taped mine three years ago

[@HazeAnderson]

ditto xD

[@rickf6375]

@@stocchinet so you always play the same notes, sounds pretty lame

[@Culturno]

holla! Мой любимый синт, сам его юзаю, только в теме драм н бейса. Когда покупал, кроме твоего видое, больше ничего не было (сейчас уже поправил, снял пару обзоров сам), очень улыбался , когда изолентой клавиши фиксировал ты) Спасибо мужик, отличное видео) Кстати, я именно том 1501 буду мидировать, недавно запаял модуль для него. Думаю с миди будет вообще чумовой агрегат.

[@dezoveelste939]

What tape was used? Mixtape? ;)

[@CaalamusTube]

I got the joke... but in case anyone actually wonders, it's called Masking Tape & it's used to paint clean lines... & then easily pull off without leaving residue.

[@Hubi5320]

Ohh nooooo

[@goddamnmaddog2024]

baaaaa hahahahahahahhaaaaaaaaaa! made my day!

[@TehSpudz0r]

[@kingdingaling8709]

Cant wait till you play Dublin November. Have a lot of people in our group going just to see your set. That says a lot when Jeff Mills is there as well. Ill be the guy with eyes the size of teacups dancing like a geriatric on 20 espressos . Bring on Metropolis.

[@pickleboxmedia]

The tape makes it! :) awesome

[@Lea_Der_777]

Maybe it will be a surprise, but all TOMs 1501 have an input for - SUSTAIN PEDAL (such thing for holding chords)... ;) P.S. Also you can be moded this pedal, or sustain input of the synth and to add the switch "holding off/on" (it's very simple mod)

[@DJKevinBrown]

Well done kink! Ps. This jam really sounds like Trip - Camelphat, but I see this video was released at the first months of 2015 and trip was released in 2016. I guess he really got inspired by you!
