Some OP-1 heavy (or exclusive) tracks from new Eucci album

I’ve got a new album up on Bandcamp as Eucci named “Burlington Route Everything West”. This album brought the OP-1 back to the regular lineup after getting shoved mostly aside on the last recordings by Machinedrum and Monomachine. Two of the tracks were done entirely on OP-1:


‘rfcauterd’ is a choppy fast IDM inspired track done during a manic weekend of junk food withdrawal. This is what really brought me back to loving the OP-1 as I rediscovered how to make some really crazy and unique tones, and then really use the Tape as a performance feature.

’betwnium’ is some choppy techno-ish stuff that ends the album. My memories of making this one are a little more vague. I think it started from watching some of the ‘new features in 2017 firmware’ videos and rolled from there and is just fun. Basic OP-1 stuff, probably, but fun.

Finally, ‘thecocleslash’ is multiple devices but the first five minutes is pretty much exclusively Machinedrum (sounding awesome here) and OP-1, using small tape loops in sync with the MD tempo. The second half of the track is pure Monomachine madness with Octatrack acting as performance-effects-processor.

hey @jshell - just wanted to give a shoutout here - just listened to the album and it is killer! Not much personal music seems to get much steam on this forum, but just thought I’d let you know! Good shit!

Thanks!
