"Late night ambient music composition using my Moog Slim Phatty for bass line sequence and also filter effects, Access Virus C for background sounds, Omnisphere 1.5 for female voice and japanese children's choir....the Boss DD-7 for delays.
The visuals were taken with my hand held video camera of different presets of the Aeon Platinum iTunes visualizer.....reflections off the screen show of my front door to my studio, couldn't get that out.
Hope you enjoy!"

"Creating one of my first patches on the Roland Gaia.
I am using all 3 oscillators with 3 separate signal paths which Gaia sound structure allows you to do. This what I love about this synth.
Plus it is so easy to program. This synth is Fun, Fun......fun
I am also running it through the PSP Vintage Warmer2 plug-in to give it a warmer more analog sound quality. The Oscillators on the gaia are a little lacking in richness, but can be enhanced by using plug-ins
like PSP Vintage Warmer 2 which is a great plug-in for doing this."

"Self created 2 sequences using Tetra4 and Mopho running through Moog Slim Phatty for filter modulations and Access Virus C for delay fx. Video was created to show how external instruments can run through the Moog Slim Phatty for filter effects from it's filter section.

With Slim Phatty it is a fantastic analog synthesizer plus can be used as an expanded Mooger Fooger MF -101 low pass filter."

"Influenced by events happening now in Bahrain. Music created using Moog Slim Phatty for bass-lines, Boss Digital Delay DD-7 and Omnisphere 1.5 for female voice using granular synthesis for FX on voice, by Richard bates. Sound bytes and video from CNN, voice Anderson Cooper and Arwa Damon. Events from protests in Bahrain with government crackdowns and brutal killings from ruling powers not willing to negotiate but willing to kill to keep power. Bahrain rulers not willing to hear wisdom from other countries including U.S. -----Ruling family would rather kill innocent people than listen to the present and future voices of reason and freedom. May the protesters win the battle for democracy."
