Current progress (1005-01)
Well.. the track are progressing..
adding a short cut midways in the tracks to show the pace and flow.. using much emu, nova and virus together..
and some post process stuff in logic.
Some new stuff coming up
Well.. i haven't died or anything.. i have just been busy with other stuff.. anyway..
working on some new stuff... coming back to the sampling and all the fun it gives.
adding two mp3 files of different types of emu pads i am using in my current track
Marias Voice made as an pad on the emu (using regular 4-pole lowpass):
MariaEmuPad
Novation Nova base sound, sampled down to the emu w/o filters and envelopes, then layred and filtered in the emu, using the 2EQ+Lowpass Morph filter:
NovaEmuPad
Both are using the RFX-32 card for reverb and echo effects adding some depth to the sound..
Enjoy.. if you want the patches, mail me or drop a post.. you can get them as .e4b files
The track i am working on.. is a bit up tempo chillout i guess. 110bpm stuff...
Studio anno May 2010
AS an extra info: Psy-works.net is up AS an sampler cd Page for old samples. 
Latest track
Hello,
not been much activity here, much because of all the hard work with TG-demo and track.
but i thought i could add the track here so you could listen .
Its a trancy kind of tune with Maria as vocals.
The Emu is used for beats, and a downsampled nova to the emu is used for bass. Wsa1 for pads, virus b for blips and blops.
Higen - Amplexus Primoria
DJ – Fathir :)
The other day i actually came across a news that told me that google had released its old search-index from 2001.
So i took a dive and searched for my old nick/artist name, which was Dj Fathir 
I took the name, because it sounded goaish.. and all the cool trance duds had "dj" in their name.. which i didn't understood was because they actually where dj's.
As for me, i had never touched a turntable or a dj mixer.. (which is also the current status of my dj career)
The Tracks are not downloadable, but i should have them somewhere around, so please feel free to request them
You can find DJ Fathir tracks at the music archive
Vandetta – Sticky Pineapple
New track out.
Not too much to say about it, the ahh'ing is done by Maria. I like the touch. But i am not that satisfied with the whole composition. but instead of starting over, i finished the track, so i can start over with blank sheets.
The drums are heavy done on the emu, the same with all the bases. Mostly nova sampled direct into the emu.

Korg Z1
Well.. long time no see.. stuff have happend..
one of the thing is that i traded in the MC909 against a korg Z1.. why you might as!
because the sampler part (which was the main reason for getting it) was to simple for me.. i need something in the emu league... Akai mpc whould probably do it.. but the price is out of reach.. PLUSS i wanted a good keyboard to push.
Anyway.. here is a patch i dialed up while playing with the korg z1.. and i must admit that this synth is rather impressive.. you can do so much.. and it has such a big sound range!
Emu showoff..
Well.. i made this hiphop loop in like 15 min out of a loop i sampled from 5 first sec of REM - I'll take the rain. It was made to convince a friend that he should get a sampler (emu) .
so the loop is heavy threated with peak shelf filter.
The beat is created on a mc 909, then sampled down as a loop to the emu, where all the magic happends.. bitcruch, AXiter, more stuff i dont remember.. cus it happends so fast 
A day before the arrival of MC-909
Well.. due to my bad economy, i have agreed with a nice guy to trade some gear.
he gets from me
Korg AM8000R 
Korg M1r
Line 6 FilterPro
Presonus TubePre
I gets a MC 909 from him.
I HOPE it will work as a creative sketchpad for creating fast beats and other sweet stuff. Since its also a sampler aswell as a groovebox.. it can be covering large fields. but i havent forgot my emu.. which will still be my main sampler.. i cant imagine that the mc909 will beat the sound of emu..
one idea i have is to create up the beat on the mc909.. the maybe slice it down and then recorde it over to the emu, before sequencing it into logic?
Creamware running on a old mac with os 9
I have set up my old creamware system on an old mac (G4 400mhz, 512 mb ram), and using it purly for synths.. and DANG its stable.. and i can run it on the lowest latency.
To get to the MAC for now i am using a remote control program. But i have an spare screen i want to hock up, i just don´t have the space at the moment .
My plane is to maybe get some more synths of the creamware shop, and use the system as a standalone synth-host.
a screen of the setup here -> 
In the picture you can see the miniscope (an old minimoog emulation, but miles away from the minimax which kicks ass compared) and U know 007, a Juno 106 emulation, which sounds very good
About Higen
Higen is a hobby musician who have had a big thing for synths since his first meeting with a technics keyboard back in 1996.
