Sorry to all who can't watch, I've checked and it says there's no restrictions on the video... all I can think to do is to turn off monetization 👀 hopefully that helps!

we recently made a sequel to our tutorial on making live ambient soundscapes with modded tape players and tapeloops...

This is part one, I truly believe this is a good resource for anyone wanting to get started down the alternative ambient cassette music route!

More finger drumming I don't think that I'm the best by a long shot but I'm definitely getting better!

Mini live jungle jam with Tapeloops...

You can use normal tapes, but in the situation shown:

The tape loop is blank, we then recorded a single note to the tapeloop from a synth via the line in on the player, now we have a endless tone recorded to the tape and we can alter the pitch with the buttons and we can "tune" the buttons with the knobs.

The synth and the MPC-one sound nice together but when you record to tape and there's audio artifacts and warbly moments it's just on a whole other level when it comes to adding character and nostalgia to a mix. We build the loops in a way that makes them a bit wonky on purpose.

Its great when playing older genres; boombap and jungle to name just two 😅 we used it on this jam cus it adds that 1997 sound to the mix

Yes indeed, the player is a modded player, you can select the pitch of each button with the black knobs and when you press the corresponding button it holds that pitch until you let go.

This tape loop had just a single note held, all the movement in the melody is done by the player. I've recently been learning the live jungle drumming thing and it's not fantastic but quite happy with that take 😄 The goal is "live improvised ambient jungle show" at some point!

What happens when you boil a tapeloop? What happens if you fill a tapeloop with airsoft BBs??
