7 minutes of funky #dubtechno with the #elektron #Digitone II and #Digitakt. As with most of my sessions, this wasn't planned. It just turned out this way while I was trying to do something else.

I've been digging deeper into FM synthesis with the Digitone II. Even though it shares the same FM tone engine as the original, the added machines, voices and tracks now allow me to do much more… #digitone, #elekton, #dubtechno

New machine, new project. The Digitone was already a perfected machine when the new version was launched in October 2024. Finally, I can present a new project based on the Digitone 2… #digitone, #elektron, #dubtechno, #digitakt, #techno, #weareelektron

I made a #dubtechno remix with the #elektron #digitakt, which has now been released on Pirahna Siberia. The song consists of stems that I chopped into smaller pieces and distributed across some of the tracks, adding a bit of my own touch to give it my unique character.

This minimalist Digitone-only #dubtechno project has been a great project for digging even deeper into the #Digitone and to put more work into every single sound. I’m looking forward to my next project now adding more ambience and soundscapes.

This is the seventh instalment in my second Digitone-only dub techno project. A minimalistic FM experiment to create complete songs using only four tracks and eight voices. #digitone #elektron #dubtechno

I was somewhat skeptical about whether it would deliver the specific sounds I sought. However, the more time I dedicated, the clearer it became that it was, in fact, perfect for my needs. Perhaps it was a process of me adapting to its unique character, or perhaps it was the Digitone adapting to mine

The original #Digitone, released in 2017, is truly a marvelous FM #synthesizer. To be honest, my experience with FM synthesis is limited to #Elektron', but they've undeniably sparked a genuine love for it within me. #dubtechno

I thought it was going to be a little better, but I’m amazed by how far much better it is. The sound quality is the same but so much more can be done with it. Now we only waiting for the OB support.

It’s an amazing machine, we all waiting for an OB update for the DNII. It took some time for them to ad it to the DTII.

Yes, but mildly. I haven’t really figured out how to best make use of the compressor. The majority of tracks is sidechained.

First 50 sec of a new track I’ve been working on with the new Digitone II, and now also accompanied by the Digitakt for ear candy noise and drones. #digitone #weareelektron #dubtechno
