Sunday Synth Jam: This synth jam, via, basswriterNYC, is”an ambient journey through the possibilities of a Roland Handsonic HPD10, a Roland SP-404sx sampler, and a set of Roland PK-5a pedals:

The idea for this setup came to me in a dream while I was on a 40-day solitary music retreat in the Himalayas in 2009, and this composition, “Serenity to Madness, and Back,” is inspired by Brian Eno, Steve Reich, Vangelis, and Photek, with nods to the demigods of dubstep and Detroit techno.
