I was challenged by Max Fattori for the Fantom 4x4x4 Challenge:
The idea of the challenge is to create a song with the Roland Fantom synth in 4 minutes, playing 4 chords only, and using the 4 new Model Expansions (vintage synth emulations of the Roland JX-8P, Juno-106, SH-101 and Jupiter-8).
Somehow I misunderstood the challenge and thought you ALSO had to compose the tune in 4 minutes (“create“ = “compose“?). This made the challenge quite difficult! Not to come up with ideas, but to actually have it made in 4 minutes! I didn’t succeed until my 14th attempt! Also, I decided to shoot everything in a single take and forced myself to come up with new musical ideas for each take, as I didn’t allow myself to start with any ready-made ideas. In the end I decided to choose which synth sounds to use in advance, because otherwise it would have been impossible for me, because I couldn’t get past the sound selection in 4 minutes. I’m so picky with my synth sounds. :)
Next, I challenge my friend Ludvig Olin with the #444xChallenge! And, of course, anyone with a Fantom can give it a go! Remember to use the tag #444xChallenge when you post your video.
