Jamuary 2026 #1: Bishop's melody

A new year means a new series of jams for the month of January. And yes, it’s the traditional Jamuary.

For this first session, I decided to use the “Bishop Miscellany” by Shakmat to generate the melody. I just got it, so it was the perfect opportunity to get the hang of it. The sounds are generated by the Plaits module running through the Blades filter, with a bit of reverb, a good kick, some drums, and this is what it sounds like. I hope you’ll like it.

You may have noticed; this year, there’s no video. I’m going to try to release audio only, using the 8TR module, which allows me to record directly from my Eurorack setup. This will make my work a bit easier and allow me to publish this content a little faster, since family life doesn’t let me spend hours on it.
