Writing a song with just the Arturia MicroFreak!

[@dojanglesclimb]

This ruled. You should make a synthwave album.

[@guy_autordie]

+1

[@ShimobeSama]

Hell yeah. Longwave. It would have to be a bit more complex compositionally just to match her style though, which of course would make it even better. I'm almost imagining something sort of halfway between a regular synthwave track and Navene K's totally nuts electronic side project stuff.

[@ЛешаЛеша-г3ш]

love it. I've been watching and enjoying it for three years now

[@aren6]

Incredible song!!! I love the sounds at 0:43, they add so much energy and immediately get you stimulated & engaged

[@KnuckleBigFoot]

I’m ready to buy the song.

[@cantrelate3410]

I just had to comment. I come back to this video every few months hoping that I am one day able to make something like this on my Arturia, lemme tell you this shit takes skill and you my friend have smashed it, seriously, love it.

[@MrPapamaci88]

Sounds so much like 80's sci fi. I LOVE IT!

[@SwiftDreamer]

Randomly hits my reccomended. KZbin knows I have a microfreak i dont use.. Glad I saw this, but also giving youtube the side eye for knowing I needed to see this

[@Maggiethegsd]

This was refreshing after Jared's 'Man makes a guitar out of his uncles skeleton' video.

[@SarahLongfield]

Haha! Glad to bring some chill😂✨

[@howel080]

[@jeroen0011]

Yeah i can remember someone in Holland made a drone from his dead cat a long time ago and many people were shocked... they should see that skeleton guitar video XD. Anyway this looks like a very fun device to work with for making original stuff, sounds lovely!

[@DrxSlump]

We're living the second synth revolution. It started as a novelty genre (via the New Retro Wave channel) but now it's here to stay. Excellent performance.

[@foto21]

and it's gonna be ugly dark with some bright moments.

[@johnisrael5183]

Oh yes we are!!! and Im loving it

[@LunarMoth]

The sounds starting at around 00:17 reminded me of Windowlicker

[@akrmfk]

Those cyberpunk devs really missed out on hiring u for their soundtrack.

[@SarahLongfield]

I would kill for a soundtrack/sound design job😭😭😭😭

[@AlexLosty]

@@SarahLongfield every single composer 'job' offer that I find: V O L U N T E E R

[@AlanCazarez]

I know right?!

[@nakantar1449]

Exactly what i thought, Grimes did a fine job but Sarah would have been more appropriate

[@allanallan4791]

This is cybermetalchill aha

[@stevenmccarron-talesfromli4831]

That was absolutely class!!!!

[@mozez4527]

I love that mood in this loop ❤️

[@Flat8G]

Lots of skills and hard work here, like it!

[@Greybrow]

That hit perfectly my love for minimal

[@zombitshe]

Woah, I've wanted a MicroFreak for such a long time now, such a cool little synth! Anyway, I think you've just convinced me that I need one right now 😂

[@hiroprotagonitis]

"Club isnt the best place to find a lover so the bar is where I go"

[@AlanCazarez]

This is chill & cyberpunky af at the same time. I love it!!!!!

[@Rob_Dekker]

This sounds friggin’ awesome! Can’t imagine those sounds coming out of that device 👍🏻🎹

[@gapster77]

I’d love to see you do another if these, I’ve watched this vid several times, it’s brilliant 👏

[@michaelstuart3593]

What the devil. You actively stopped me from working there, so that I could jam. Great stuff!!!

[@gapster77]

Love Synthwave, and really loved this! Nice transition between sections, lots of movement without any harsh jumping around.

[@CC-qb9sm]

I Purchased one of these within hours of seeing this video! Good stuff!

[@MegaCadr]

This was very inspiring. Still trying to get my head around how to use the Microfreak.

[@monodux]

What an amazing sound. This synth is going back on the wishlist. Great track!

[@bitsbeatsmusic9300]

Wow! That bassline on 0:51 is 🔥!!!

[@jacobtape]

That's a preset bassline that comes with the microfreak when you activate arp

[@johnnovak1979]

That arp + reverb part is really nice, great atmosphere. Sounds surprisingly "analog" too!

[@gordonchristophertubo3164]

Omg. Wtf dude. Arrived here cuz BTBAM released a new single, got super nostalgic, decided to watch new selkies video, then watched your selkies cover. Remembered you are so good at guitar, decided to check your channel. Then wow I get blown away by something do different and genius, and this along the lines of what I enjoy now. Even if you totally have no idea who I am, know that as a distant observer, I'm so happy that after all these years you still make very beautiful art. Niceeeee!

[@ChrisLT]

Love it, so chill. Would fit on a whole bunch of indie game soundtracks.

[@sunny99179]

6days before i am back, your music inspired me so much that i want to make something like this for my RPG game... i bough an midi to start something while i keep my piano studies... Thank you for inspire me!

[@DennisOuellette]

Wow! This is the best music I’ve heard in years. Thanks!

[@craigrich4768]

I picked one of these up about 6 months ago and haven't explored much of it yet, but this has made me super excited.

[@InscrutableObjects]

I know I'm late to the party, but I just need to tell you that this is becoming my go to song when I need to get back in the groove. Thank you so much!

[@brianmendenhall5157]

So many people will buy one now thanks to you! Arturia, most this on your webpage! Nice work.

[@Ryantalope]

This is incredibly masterful!

[@mumblingspook]

That's a great song, you are a talented arranger/composer! You should feel proud of your piece! It's really enjoyable, you rock! Love the beanie!

[@bigriff9946]

i love the drop so much

[@xxSk8ing4christxx]

Sarah: definitely in the top 10 electronic music producers in my book. Good work!

[@danieltomkinson3275]

This has been in my head all day, I love it

[@roberttweaker9625]

That drop knocked me out of my seat. I'm suing.

[@seanmangan2769]

😁

[@allanallan4791]

This takes me back to the 90s Orbital cones to mind.... fuck when the beat drops you can't help but head bang. When's the extended remix coming? This is way too short a single more please ahaha.

[@DJJoltX]

Just ordered mine last night first synth wanted to take my song design to a different level. Thanks for sharing this is amazing.

[@patrickhall7884]

Very cleverly done.

[@AaronFoltz]

the layers. magnificent.

[@one-eye1721]

Sarah Longfield: Synthwave Maestro! is there anything this gal can't do?

[@alvinmason758]

sleep

[@antonstiensen3020]

This is the thing I've been longing for, it looks so nice to use!

[@SarahLongfield]

It is! So much power in such a tiny synth 🎹

[@_errnest_]

I watched it non-stop, giving my shirt attention span is incredible!!! Cool song!

[@stuffnuns]

yahzaa! love love love it. Thank you.

[@MattWetherill]

This is awesome! Inspirational - I've not touched my Microfreak for a year - this makes me realise what's possible.

[@jasonryan4994]

Love the build up and 80s/90s terminator sci-fi vibe.

[@Georg89]

That's brilliant, an amazing piece of art showing how incredibly versatile this small synth is! thank you

[@Simombrun1980]

Talent in abundance

[@KillTheJester]

It's an amazing box with endless ways to experiment and discover creative sounds and ideas

[@Mr.Meowgical]

Was in the mood for sum Sarah t00nz, forgot that I'd seen this already but MAN does it still slap!

[@micktaylor5520]

I get my microfreak in a few days. I can't wait it sounds like so much fun. Watching this video made me even more excited to get the microfreak.

[@seanmangan2769]

That was great!

[@rookmaster7502]

That was way awesome! I hope soon I will be able to play on my Microfreak with such skill and creativity; I'm still getting acquainted with this amazing synth.

[@sandyturner1911]

Wow! Very cool. I just got a Werkstatt, and a Keystep. Thanks for the great demo.

[@EleniEliades_]

Such a wonderful array of sounds were utilized to create each layer of your Soundscape. The Microfreak is quite a unique instrument full of lovely surprises. Like a box of magical sounds~💥🙉💡🎹🎵

[@WAGinWNY]

Very cool! Love the bass notes especially.

[@kevinvivian7274]

This is the exactly my wave right now. This could be on a video game soundtrack and I’d pause the game to listen to the music

[@shopniljahan]

I've been watching your videos from like 3 years ago and it's great to see you back!

[@calpolar]

Absolute gem of a video. Ace!

[@Tocaraca]

Loved this, especially the “sweeter”-sounding sections

[@kamilslaby_]

This is just great! I might get one because of this!

[@maxsmart9116]

Wow, that's awesome! I'm going to get the Minifreak soon.

[@nuugle42]

Holy SHNARF !!! That was Shnarfing incredible!!!

[@artg7909]

Sounds great. Finally a video that shows off the microfreaks full potential.. Congrats👍

[@andydavis5845]

Good lord. You nailed it luv. Just ordered one today!

[@johndoumas3603]

Absolutely loving this!....... Thanks for sharing.

[@demolpol5010]

Aaaaah sweet sounds for the blackened soul

[@SassyWaifu]

Sarah: I have written this complicated solo on guitar that at some point loses any relevance to time signatures, so you can just play it by ear Also Sarah: ***VIBES***

[@byronvisiado09]

Arturia has the best live creation stuff.

[@alexnaturalis1179]

O M G! This is marvelous, my senses were so fired up when listening! I took an express trip to etherland and saw amazing things. I swear I'm not on drugs.

[@musicalintuition]

ooh love the vibe of this song

[@spawnmc4401]

This is all sorts of impressive! Really awesome track!

[@kabuto2365]

Awesome! Much better than the 4 Producers 1 Synth tracks!

[@pauwels_francois_djset]

omfg... ;) another video that makes me want to buy it.... I'm going to take the plunge soon and it will be my first machine.... You did a great job on this video... it sounds so good.

[@GourlieRecords]

So dope! I'm more and more considering picking up a MicroFreak, so many fun sounds! 🙌

[@rskityaev]

Oh, that's a sweet piece of gear! I'd say upgrade to a latest firmware is a must, it add so much stuff

[@vincesnetterton5868]

very nice timing, sounds and composition

[@billsoraparu9673]

Awesome demonstration of just how powerful the Microfreak is! Great piece of music ...Art to be appreciated! Thank you for sharing!!

[@jonprosser2980]

Soooo good! That bass is badass.

[@scottkeough5620]

Wow🤯 this is making me high🥴 You should be doing some more of this ambient modulator sounds plus playing with guitar together will be phenomenal 🤘🤘

[@SirJ4X]

this reminded me of some of the music in Big Trouble in Little China.. very cool

[@miannekahkol9556]

Love this so much

[@chuckomgyahoo]

Just got one of these... Awesome to know I can do songs in real time.I liked your song btw

[@MusicMindset]

Oooooooh! That sound! Very cool Sarah!

[@clarenzlarka]

Sarah, you have created something truly awesome. I hope you do record an entire album with this. Let us know if you do. .

[@thislittleunknownband]

Very nice! Sounds awesome!!! Thanks for sharing! I have had one of these incredible synths for a few months... I'm starting to figure it out more and it seems like the possibilities for making music with it are boundless! If only I knew how ! hahaha

[@jamesgibson4168]

OK, this sold me on the MicroFreak. Great performance!

[@dethsyndrome]

I love your channel, Im always learning something.

[@foto21]

Congratulations. Most people demoing keyboards online aren't worth listening to but I like your angle.

[@WorivpuqloDMogh]

This little synth impressed me. I really want one

[@Postfrogish]

Holy shitballs this synth is so damn versatile!

[@davidkieltyka9]

Spiffing! Also appreciated Dune in the background!

[@Tibbon]

I also got one of these a few weeks ago. For the price to fun value, it's off the charts.

[@FirstWizardZorander]

That drop gave me chills. Now I just *know* I need to explore mine further

[@OCEANSINSPACE]

As a fellow tapper, I love the MicroFreak too! I was skeptical at first but its a a dream, and you made an as lil demo! Cheers.

[@SnuffsEnough]

Very cool. Very "night city" sounding.
