Dubspot Radio Podcast: Atropolis (Dutty Artz / Cumba Mela) | Live Performance + Interview


For this week’s installment of Dubspot Radio Podcast, we have a fantastic live performance mix by Atropolis (Dubspot instructor Adam Partridge). Originally recorded for KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles during the World Music Festival in Chicago, Adam utilized an array of instruments and controllers including Ableton PUSH, LIVID DS1, Keith McMillen Softstep, Native Instruments X1 MK2, and a Gaita (Colombian flute). The mix contains original tracks along with official remixes. We also talk to Adam about his recent and upcoming projects and about putting together his live set.

Podcast_dubspot_atropolis

Five Questions for Atropolis

How and where was Atropolis FM 90.7 recorded?

The mix was for 90.7 FM (LA radio Station) it is a recording of a live set I did for the World Music Festival in Chicago. I recorded the set using Ableton PUSH, Livid DS1, two Akai MPK mini keyboards, Korg Wavedrum, Keith McMillen SoftStep, Native Instruments X1 MK2, and a Gaita (Colombian flute).

The mix was a segment from my live set in Chicago, recorded and performed using Ableton Live and all the controllers and instruments listed above.

What are some of the ideas behind the mix?

The idea behind the mix is simple, I finally took the step to working with a live set rather than a DJ format. This approach allowed me to explore mashing up my own original work, re-arranging it, and adding new parts to my songs in a live format. Really exciting and fulfilling, I’ve been a live musician my whole life, and although I love to DJ, there is this inner battle to do more, to be more active with my musicianship. It was exciting that David Chavez (DJ Sound Culture), promoter/ DJ from Chicago, who booked me for this world music festival, requested for a live set. This was the final push to finally make it happen.

The set is made up of all original tracks and official remixes.

What have you been up to recently?

My most recent project is a remix for Six Degrees Records. It’s for an Indian group called the Midival Punditz and is kind of like a combination of hip-hop, heavy bass, and drums mixed with traditional Indian percussion and traditional Indian singing. It should be released this summer sometime. I am very excited about it. It was a real pleasure working with this incredible band.

My most recent release on Dutty Artz was a collaboration with Yaccouba Sissoko, a very talented musician from Mali, who was born into its country’s rich musical heritage that has been literally passed on for centuries.

What’s inspiring you these days?

What is inspiring me these days is working with live musicians. I am currently planning my next project, and it is going to be focused around collaborating with live musicians. I learned that my most successful tracks included some kind of live element, whether its vocals or instrumental. So I am focusing my energy towards getting other musicians in the studio and creating electronic elements around their performance.

What are you up next?

I hope to complete this project for winter or spring of 2016.

It makes sense that a lifelong New Yorker has created an album that encompasses the best of a number of musical influences the city has to offer. Adam ‘Atropolis’ Patridge was born and raised in Queens, New York, one of the most diverse places in America. By age 16, Adam was deep into sounds from Mali, Nigeria, the Balkans, the Caribbean, and South America. Living in the melting pot meant that all those musical communities were nearby. Years later, Patridge created a fresh-to-death amalgamation of Nueva Cumbia, Dubstep, Moombahton, Afro-Colombian house, and Kuduro. His creations have caught the ears of studied future world music professionals; Dutty Artz label heads Jace “DJ/Rupture” Clayton and Matt Shadetek.

About Atropolis

As an accomplished arranger and multi-instrumentalist, Patridge decided to leave his work on commercials to found the Cumba Mela DJ collective. Their “anything goes” vibe of the collective was fresh as the first party happened on a pirated ship docked in a dirty creek in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The ambitious, community-oriented Cumba Mela parties brought in performers, film, food, and visual artists. They reflected Adam’s commitment to making fresh dance music that emerged from the sounds of his native city — a city of immigrants hustling to make old worlds and new worlds dance together. Even Adam’s own family hails from Greek Cyprus. Check out more of Adam’s story more at Dutty Artz.

Keep up with Atropolis on SoundCloud, Facebook, and Twitter.

Ableton Live Tutorial: Understanding Automation and Modulation Envelopes w/ Rory PQ


In this Ableton Live tutorial, Dubspot’s Rory PQ explains the difference between automation and modulation, as well as covers how to use both types of envelopes in your projects. Check out our Music Production course w/ Ableton Live to learn more. Classes start soon, Enroll Now!

Automation and Modulation Envelopes Header

Learning about the tools used in music production and their functions is just as important as learning foundational music production techniques. As we develop our music making skills it is also essential to become more familiar with music terminology so we can communicate clearly amongst other artists. In this tutorial, we will advance our practical knowledge of Ableton Live and become more familiar with the difference between automation and modulation. Frequently, these two terms are used when talking about music production but are often misconstrued. Let’s explore their functionality further.

Automation

The term “automation” is used when describing the movement of a control over time across the Arrangement View Timeline or Session View Clip. In other words, a control is being automated when an automation envelope is used to change a control value over time.

Automation is an essential feature used in music production. In Ableton Live, automation envelopes allow us to control movements of nearly every device control or interface parameter available. Automation can be drawn in and edited with your mouse, or recorded in real-time by moving a control during playback in either Arrangement View or Session View.

Recording automation to the Arrangement View is achieved by enabling the Automation Arm and Arrangement Record buttons located on the Control Bar. Once enabled and recording begins, any changes to a control that occur will record as an automation envelope.

Automation-Arm

Automation recorded to Session View clips is achieved by enabling the Automation Arm, Session Record, and Automation Session Recording buttons while in Session View. The selected clip will then turn red, indicating that any changes of a control will be recorded within that clip.

Session-Automation

Once automation has been drawn in or recorded, a red square will appear on the control indicating it has active automation. Controls being modulated will not have a red square. Be aware that adjusting a control’s value while not recording will deactivate the control’s automation. The control will stop tracking its automation and will follow the new value until the Re-Enable Automation button is pressed or launching another Session View clip that contains automation.

Active-Automation

Also, note that automation within Session View clips automatically becomes timeline automation when recording to the Arrangement View, and vice versa. Arrangement View clip envelopes will become Session View clip envelopes when dragging them over to Session View.

Track Envelopes vs. Clip Envelopes

Track envelopes, or in other words timeline automation is only available in Arrangement View. In addition, the automation can also exist without Audio or MIDI clips.

Automation-Without-Clip

Clip envelopes, on the other hand, is automation that only exists within Audio or MIDI clips, and is independent of the Arrangement. They can be used to automate or modulate device controls and mixer parameters for the selected channel. Audio clips also have available envelopes to influence pitch, volume, and more. MIDI clips have similar options, as well as additional envelopes to represent MIDI controller data. Clip envelopes can also be “unlinked” from the clip to give them independent loop settings.

Clip-Automation

Clip envelopes can be viewed or edited in either Arrangement View or Session View by clicking the button labeled “E” to show the Envelopes Box containing the Device Parameter list.

Envelopes-Box

Modulation

Modulation is also a movement of a control across the Arrangement View Timeline or Session View Clip, but relative to the defined parameter value. In other words, automation envelopes define the value of a control at any given point in time, whereas modulation envelopes can only influence this defined value.

Modulation envelopes for mixer and device controls are hidden by default in the Clip Envelope Control choosers and must first be activated for a desired device control before it is accessible. Activating clip modulation is achieved by right-clicking on a device control and choosing Show Modulation from the context menu. Once the control has been activated, it will appear in the Device Parameter List.

Modulation-Parameters

Show Modulation is accessed in Arrangement View by first selecting a clip and then right-clicking on a device control and choosing Show Modulation from the context menu. In Session View, a clip must first be launched for Show Modulation to appear in the context menu. Note, if the clip is stopped the Show Modulation will appear grayed out. A clip must be launched for Show Modulation option to be available.

Show-Modulation

How to Access Modulation in Clips

Click here to view the embedded video.

Automation vs. Modulation

Automation and modulation envelopes can control both mixer and device controls. However, modulation envelopes work differently from automation envelopes. Let’s explore this further. As mentioned earlier, automation envelopes define the value of a control at any given point in time while modulation envelopes can only influence this defined value. This difference allows the two types of envelopes to work together as a team when controlling the same parameter.

For example, imagine you are modulating the Track Pan control. When the control is set to the center position, the clip envelope modulation can reach from hard left to hard right. However, turning the Track Pan control towards either the left or right will automatically reduce the modulation amount. Meaning if you turn the Track Pan control all the way to the left, the pan envelope modulation will no longer have an effect.

Lastly, both automation and modulation envelopes are available for clips in Session View while Arrangement View clips only have modulation envelopes available.

Conclusion

As with anything else related to music production, the best approach is to dig in and apply your working knowledge to truly understand the difference between automation and modulation.
