Techno Beat Production: Honeysmack How I Make Improvised Acid Techno


video upload by Honeysmack

"This video was made for beat production students at The State University of New York (SUNY Broome County) back in October 2021 during the pandemic. It was recorded in my old studio before it was redesigned in early 2022. Here I discuss my overall approach and philosophy to making and performing live improvised techno. Performing with my "studio instrument" is at the core of what I do as live techno improvisor. There are excerpts from live performances throughout the video, with detailed explanations. This channel is supported by my Patreons, become a member here: https://www.patreon.com/honeysmack and yes I also offer one-on-one tuition/lesson/coaching on making and performing live techno.
