Musichello and The Story of LepLoop #leploop #musichello

video upload by LepLoop

"In this video, we look back at the story of the LepLoop, inspired by the deep-dive article written by Richie on RackEars exploring the history and philosophy behind our work:

📖 Read the full article: https://www.rackears.io/articles/how-...

The Musichello was the father of the LepLoop. Hand-built inside an old wooden wine box with recycled electronic parts, by Giovanni around 2001, it set everything in motion. We met around 2005\2006 and began developing the LepLoop prototype together, eventually launching the first official version in 2009.

Here, you can listen to a rare archival live performance recording by Giovanni (aka Peppo Lasagna) from around 2007, showcasing the raw, unpolished sonic character of the original Musichello.

Alongside this ~30-minute live improvisation session is a collection of archival photos of both the Musichello and LepLoop, highlighting the early experimental design, circuitry, and hands-on workflow that laid the foundation for the instruments we build today.

URANO MERCURIO NETTUNO | Doctor Fungus #arpoloop

video upload by LepLoop

"🌌 Voyage 6: The Final Descent 🛰️

The journey concludes. In the grand finale of The ArpoLoop Space Sessions, Doctor Fungus takes us on a sonic voyage through the outer giants URANO and NETTUNO, with a final, searing pass by MERCURIO.

This session begins in the stillness of a deep VCO drone, gradually shifting as the ArpoLoop’s internal logic accelerates. Watch the transition from smooth, ethereal waves into a high-speed glitch landscape—a true testament to the machine’s chaotic beauty.

TERRA LUNA MERCURIO | Doctor Fungus #arpoloop

video upload by LepLoop

"🌍 Voyage 5: A Meditative Return 🧘‍♂️

In the penultimate installment of The ArpoLoop Space Sessions, Doctor Fungus guides us through a more relaxed, reflective journey. We drift through the familiar resonances of TERRA, the soft pulses of LUNA, and the quiet, sun-drenched orbits of MERCURIO.

This session highlights the ArpoLoop’s ability to generate gentle, evolving textures. Watch as the note generator creates a space for meditation, with slow-moving sequences that mimic the peaceful drift of a satellite in orbit.

SATURNO MERCURIO SATURNO | Doctor Fungus #arpoloop

"🪐 Voyage 4: From Gravity to Heat ☄️

In the fourth session of The ArpoLoop Space Sessions, Doctor Fungus navigates the extreme contrast between the heavy, resonant gravity of SATURNO and the erratic, sun-scorched speed of MERCURIO. Watch as the ArpoLoop's note generator moving from deep, sustained glitch into frantic, high-frequency rhythmic patterns, then settling back into the expansive atmosphere of the ringed giant.

"❄️ Voyage 3: The Cold Frequencies of the Deep ❄️

We have reached the edge. In this third installment of The ArpoLoop Space Sessions, Doctor Fungus explores the distant, icy realms of NETTUNO and PLUTONE.
This session focuses on the ArpoLoop's ability to create vast, sparse soundscapes that mirror the isolation of deep space. Listen for the way the rhythmic pulses seem to “freeze” and thaw as the sequencer navigates these cold frequencies.

LepLoop 3D: Messing Around with the Capacitor Sequencer #leploop

"Diving back into the Leploop 3D! While we touched on LFO modulation in the last video, today I’m messing around with the unique capacitor sequencer.
A tactile way to build melody on the fly, this video explores how the S\H and LFO work together to drive the capacitor sequencer, creating evolving, organic textures driven by LFO modulation offset.

Broken Reverb is Better Reverb (free IRs and samples)

"Get the IRs and Samples here: https://oscillatorsink.gumroad.com/l/...

There's an aesthetic trend in modern effects, especially in ambience effects like reverb and delay, which points towards embracing and accentuating digital imperfection.

It turns out that the glitching, aliasing, distortion and noise that engineers traditionally worked so hard to dial out of gear actually sounds pretty amazing when used creatively and intentionally.

Many FX companies have really embraced this way of working, adding controls to their effects which allow musicians to digitally degrade the sound in wonderful ways - intentionally circuit bending their instruments by design.

Another way, though, to achieve these sounds might be to buy an old, cheap reverb from ebay and circuit bend it. This electronic abuse, forces the unit into leaning into these artifacts whether it wants to or not! The results may be more chaotic, but they might also be even more fun and potentially more affordable.
