Of The New

 The first recordings of 2025 sees Conny Plankton working with new versions of DAWs and VSTs in a series of sonic explorations – a frequent player was the Arturia Keystep 37 – used to set up ARPs and sequences and generally keep various VST Synths in sync. Into the melee came hardware devices such as the Roland S1 Tweak Synth, the Neutron Desktop Synth and the Nifty Eurorack Set up. The Final Mixes range from beat driven onslaughts to dark ambient soundscapes, to abstract dystopian drone explorations. And that's only the first track...

There Be Strange

The final Conny Plankton album of 2024 sees a new series of recordings and mixes of further explorations with the Arturia Keystep 37 Controller and Sequencer – now put to use in arranging various VST Synths, but also controlling sequences and arps alongside hardware devices such as the Nifty Eurorack Set up and the Roland MC505 Groovebox. Throughout all of this are suitably eclectic samples and loops, together with filters and effects in abundance.

37

 A new series of recordings from Conny Plankton sees the introduction of the Arturia Keystep 37 Synth into the fold and a series of explorations of sequences, loops and Arps with a range of different VST Synths. Into the party came the Nifty Eurorack set up, the Roland MC505 Groovebox and additional loops and samples. A bit of everything in here folks!

Curlew

A new series of recordings sees a series of mixes and explorations based around the use of two new modules in the Nifty Eurorack system – an envelope follower to sync up external sound sources direct into Eurorack and a vector based wavetable module to allow manipulation of sequences and oscillators. Of course, into this were woven suitably esoteric samples, beats and sequences, VST Synths and different hardware devices. The final mixes span a whole series of approaches and styles, but with the Conny Plankton stamp of the oddball odd. Let madness reign and chaos prevail! 

Proud To Be Weird

 The Adventure continues, with a new series of recordings from Conny Plankton. Much use was made this time round of recordings made from external sources to be filtered, mutilated and mixed alongside samples, loops, and hardware and software synths. The Final Mixes span a whole series of different approaches and styles – but fear not, for all are have that Conny Plankton stamp of strangeness. Proud to be weird!

Never The Same Way Twice

 A new series of recordings from the warped mind of Conny Plankton  features mixes and explorations using old minidisc based field recordings, the Filterscape, Hive  and Massive X VST Synths; Hardware synths and the Nifty Eurorack system, and banks of heavily treated samples and loops. Most of the minidisc recordings were made from a visit to Sweden some 20 years ago, which can be seen in various titles for tracks. A treat for the head awaits!

Of Scars And Memories

Of Scars and Memories is a new series of recordings and mixes released by Conny Plankton in this July of 2024. The Nifty Eurorack featured heavily in most of the mixes, adding elements of chaos and ASMR textures. Also featured were a range of hardware synths and devices and stellar performances from VST Synths such as Hive, Massive, Massive X and Filterscape. Interwoven into the mixes were a series of heavily filtered archive recordings recently rediscovered on MiniDisc. Expect the unexpected here!
