Making a Tape Loop to Make Music With: Sci-Fi Ambient Buchla Modular Synth

video upload by The Galaxy Electric

"This stream is very special as we kicked the whole thing off with one of our favorite techniques: making a tape loop! We were on hold with CVS and the hold music was beautifully distorted, so we recorded it with Jacqueline's phone and then we recorded it onto an 8 Second tape loop. We then built an entire improvised electronic music set out of it. The spontaneity and uncertainty involved with creating a tape loop on the fly adds to the magic and as you will see and hear, we took the ball and blissfully volleyed it to and fro. The resulting performance is quite the cosmic journey through space and time. Our buchla inspired modular, nord modular g1, tascam porta 02 mkii, handmade tape loops as well as Jacqueline's signature dual Boss RE-20 Space Echoes are all in play here."
