Volca Beats ,Volca Bass , Volca Keys , and Monotribe -1983-

A short jam shot on location while staying in Shonan , during the recent ASP Japan/Murasaki Shonan Open. The KORG Volcas are small enough to take anywhere
, and versatile enough to make a complete track using only these small love units.Close the laptop , and tweak out for maximum analog satisfaction...

[@benweichiba]

Thank you everyone for the nice comments...I had almost forgotten about this video , I am super happy that people are still checking it out...You guys are inspiring me to get back on the units...

[@amovement01]

***** Same here and once again, thanks youtube for that !

[@MisterMotel]

checking it in Dec 2019, cause I've got some volca's on the way. I love the melody in this.

[@KimStennabbCaesar]

Excellent 80's sound with a delicious chiptune flavour. 5/5 toasters, would do again.

[@benweichiba]

+Kim Stennabb Caesar Thank you very much , delicious is my favorite word...

[@MariaCalfaDePaul]

Best video yet of the three volcas working together...and adding the monotribe was just icing on the cake....the drums sound amazing!! loved it!!

[@benweichiba]

Thank you very much , I really appreciate the positive comments...I hope you get your hands on some and start enjoying as well...

[@setphaser]

I had no idea there was a loop length in the keys!!! that's awesome! great tip thankyou. I adore the music. so much groove. I keep watching this over and over!

[@lynnmccabe153]

[@Moybassmusic]

by far and away the best video i have seen with these sick little boxes. Had no idea about the loop length feature either, awesome. Thank you for sharing!

[@alexmint4998]

Amazing. Simple and beautiful melodies

[@Thmntyrk]

Maybe the nicest use of this three boxes that i've seen on youtube

[@benweichiba]

+Thmntyrk That is one hell of a compliment , I appreciate it , although there are some amazing people putting these to use in different ways...

[@skoslosk]

This is the stuff Korg should have on their web page, this would sell the Volca. Very well done, thank you for sharing.

[@benweichiba]

Thank you so much Steve , I hope that they use them someday...

[@benweichiba]

Oh yeah , super koooorrrrrgggg , mr. boxxxxxxed! Thank you for checking it out!

[@benweichiba]

Thank you so much Thomas , it was tons of fun to make , I appreciate your view...

[@Digiphex]

Very cool nostagia of the 80's. Loved it.

[@benweichiba]

Thank you for checking out the videos Goth , and thank you for the nice comments always...

[@MrNiniko]

Thanks Mr.BenWeichiba, once again amazing jam. I'll be waiting for more of your amazing jams.

[@benweichiba]

Thank you bpbutler , you will enjoy the heck out of these things , they're small enough to fit into a backpack , and run on batteries , fun on the run...

[@benweichiba]

Thank you setphaser , I appreciate your comment , I really enjoy playing these things...

[@blackyiechan]

Awesome demo. Definitely demonstrates the potential of these synths

[@benweichiba]

Thank you so much , I appreciate the comment...

[@dpriola]

Wonderful work, my friend. I just got my Volcas today, and this was inspiring.

[@Sm2n]

This is one of the best uses of the Volcas + Monotribe that I've seen. Bravo!

[@benweichiba]

+Sam Di Nitride Thank you so much Sam...

This is amazing. I love it! I watch it about 10 times a week.

[@benweichiba]

[@benweichiba]

Thank you so much Kyle , I really appreciate you keeping up on videos...I appreciate the comment...

[@ronnieperez7650]

Ugh, this brings me back. Great classic-style sequence. I love it. This just made my day.

[@benweichiba]

Thank you so much Robin , this was the first time using the Volca Keys for the bassline to take advantage of the longer sequence option , fun experiment...

[@benweichiba]

Hi streglof , I have been using a midi keyboard to input the notes on almost all of my loops , although using the octave knob and twisting around on one note in the loop makes some cool things happen , then you can remove some of the steps , to give it some groove...Thank you for watching!

[@benweichiba]

Thank you Durpedidurp , I really appreciate the support...

[@benweichiba]

I wish that I could read Russian , but I really appreciate you checking out the video! Thank you from Japan!

[@benweichiba]

Thank you Beatboxed , it is tons of fun bringing all the units together , everytime it comes out different , full on analog adventures!

[@benweichiba]

+pabloplato Thank you , just go for it , the most amazing thing about these are the happy accidents...I find the more you attack them with no plan at all , the best stuff happens...
