Hey guys, here are some sequencer patterns from one of my all-time favourite bands, German electropunk/EBM pioneers Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft ("German-American Friendship"). Or, in short, D.A.F.
To quote Wikipedia: "Görl played drums — usually fairly simple and relatively unsyncopated patterns, but with simple variations that prevented them sounding robotic — while Delgado sang. The only other instruments used were Korg MS-20 and ARP Odyssey analogue synthesizers usually driven by a Korg SQ-10 analog sequencer. Typically only a single sequencer-driven line would be used for a song, the sequence functioning both as melodic accompaniment and as a bassline."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutsch_Amerikanische_FreundschaftAll of the patterns included are from their 1980-1982 albums. Most of these lines are incredibly simplistic, no syncopations or stops here at all. But, just remember how groundbreaking this stuff was at its time.
Got my Microbrute 1 1/2 weeks ago, and literally the first thing I did with it was playing around with these little patterns here.
So, here's what you get:
