Minimalist Ambient Jam with Capybaras : Volca Modular and Korg NTS-1

On my trip to the lake, I found a herd of cute Capybaras. So I did another little jam for them. Again with the Korg Volca Modular and NTS-1

Unusual intro - no capybaras where I live. Drone hurt my ears for a time but found it more interesting and far less irritating from around 11 minutes onwards. I like that it was starting to get dark near the end of the piece.

That's in Brasilia. Capybaras are native there. Sorry about the ears. :-) Is that the very Steve Reichian repetitive "arpeggio" from the NTS-1? Or the actual Volca drone? I confess, I take a bit of time to find something listenable and interesting with these outside jams. They're fun to do and it's a chance to force me to learn more about the Volca Modular to try to find something interesting there. (While getting out of the house) But they definitely start minimal Also, that footage of Capys at sunset was actually something I filmed earlier (and slowed down) and just cut in over the end of this jam (because the video itself isn't that interesting). But they look fantastic don't they?

@@synaesmediaThanks for the reply. I was referring to the repetatative single note at the beginning of the piece mainly but that's just me (aka Western Sub). I thought the live performance went really well.

@@JellyMonster1 That's definitely the NTS1's arpeggio then.
