Literally any synth + Octatrack is fun. No matter what - I love it!
In this video Matthew Piecora (aka EZBOT) takes the Volca Beats and Volca Keys for a spin with his trusty Elektron Octatrack MK2! The Octatrack was used as a performance mixer but also a sample player and resampling device. The Volca Beats of course were the source of all the percussive sounds and the Volca Keys were responsible for the synth lines and surprisingly crunchy acid bassline. Volca Keys: "The ideal introductory synthesizer, with a simple yet powerful polyphonic analog sound engine and loop sequencer Volca Keys is a long-awaited synthesizer that adds a new chapter to the long and storied history of Korg's analog synthesizers. Volca keys is a 27-key analog lead synth that generates unbelievably powerful sound from its compact body. Starting with a filter section that uses the circuitry of the legendary miniKORG700S (1974), it delivers astonishing sound that takes full advantage of Korg's half-century of know-how in circuit design. With a simple structure that includes delay effect and a sequencer, it's also an ideal choice as a first analog synth. It offers the richly expressive sounds that are distinctive of an analog synth, providing the enjoyment of simple yet deep sound-creation."

Those thick sounds have the power to stand up to guitar and acoustic drums, and are still indispensable for track-making or live performance. The volca beats gives you those analog drums plus the easy-to-use step sequencer of the Electribe; it lets you turn your inspiration into reality and generate beats with the best high quality sounds."
