Just Another Snake Cult

I write, record, and play songs in the band Just Another Snake Cult. I also dabble in taking pictures, making videos, soldering, and other stöff.

Here’s the latest music video I directed for Arni Vil.

Here´s a quick demo of the Wurlitzer and Rhodes-style e-piano patches in my bank for the Minilogue.

[snakecult]

I’ve made over 140 patches for the KORG Minilogue, with loads of classic retro 80s and 70s style patches.

I got a request to do a Lowrey organ ala Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. This is how it turned out.

Rest of my patches are here: https://www.thoracius.com/microkorg-xl-patches/

By request, here's my best shot at recreating that weird signature synth sound from Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill," which was supposedly performed on a Fairlight. It's very hard to approximate the characteristics of such a mangled sampled sound on the MicroKORG XL. I also created the Mellotron Choir in response to a recent request.

These sounds and 100+ more classic retro and lo-fi microKORG XL patches available from my website: https://www.thoracius.com/microkorg-xl-patches/

This video clip uses no external effects -- it's just the dry sound direct out of the synth. Pardon my poor playing. I'm clearly not a keyboard player.

If you have any requests for sounds you'd like me to recreate, send them this way!

I made a little slideshow video about the canoe I made in two days and the trip I took in it.

Here’s the latest music video I shot. It´s the newest single from the album I´m producing for Árni Vil.

Here’s an ambient improvisation by David Golden using a couple of my patches for the MicroKORG.

I was recently asked on my website whether any of the patches in my bank for the MicroKORG XL have a Joy Division Vox Omni/Solina sound.  Well, so far not, so I decided to make one.

Here’s a Just Another Snake Cult music video I made a couple years ago that never got released.

I learned three new tricks today. This one is my favorite new way to switch directions. Anybody know what it's called? (at Vesturbær)
