The Day of Album Releases

This is probably quite deranged - or at the very least a  flagrant disregard for the rules and conventions, but October 5th 2023 is the day that Conny Plankton chose to unleash two albums on to the world on the very same day. So here we go...

Neck Of Moles

October 2023 sees a new series of recordings from Conny Plankton, loosely unified under a common theme of bringing the Arturia MicroFreak into sync with the Hive and Massive X VST Synths – but it soon evolved and expanded into working alongside edited loops, timestretched drones, and additional external devices such  the Nifty Eurorack and the Roland MC505 Groovebox. Enjoy folks!

Bug Metallic - the Magic Bullet Mixes

This album is different from the norm – whatever that means – in that is based on three mixes that were already made for three different sites. Each them have the common theme of being based on samples and sound bites from Magic Bullet, the experimental-electro warped brain child of Mick Magic.  Magic Bullet is very much worth checking out, and can be found at:

Each of the three original mixes have been reworked with additional samples, arrangements and new Conny Plankton artwork, so they are not just duplicates that can be found elsewhere. So now…let the Magic begin…
