Sebastian Arnold - Driving A Spaceship [HD]

YouTube Published on Sep 14, 2012 by batzberlin

Performance on Drum Kit, Nord Modular G2, Nord Rack 2 and a Looper.

"Driving A Spaceship" from the new album "Interstellar Getaway".
iTunes: Sebastian Arnold

"SEBASTIAN ARNOLD is a genuine one-man band behind his drum kit and synthesizers. Watching him for the first time, you may think of someone driving a spaceship with drumsticks. However, his mission goes beyond flying: since 2008 the "mad scientist drummer" has been exploring the intersections of instrumental and electronic club music. All alone on stage, he is building song structures by layering loops and drum-triggered sequences with acoustic drums, keyboards and vocals. The result is an organic mixture of elektro, post-rock, drum'n'bass and indietronica. A stellar performance!

In time for Halloween!

" Bends:

- 2 Super bright green LED's on the sides of the unit

- 2 bend/glitch switches that bend and twist the words in different ways depending on what mode you are in and how many of the switches you have on. You can get endless bent sounds and words with these 2 switches. When you turn on a bend switch and you are in the right mode,you can get the unit to ramble on endlessly.

- 1 tone switch that puts out a steady tone that you can change to a lower or higher tone by pressing the keypad. There are 3 or more different tones that you can get using this switch. You can use any of the pitch controls to "play" the pitch of the tone.

- 2 loop switches that will "catch" or "Freeze" a bent or normal sound and repeat it so you can play the pitch of the loop with any of the pitch controls.To advance to the next loop, just flip the loop switch off/on. No need for an extra "Loop advance" button. You can use both the loop switches at the same time to create cool combination loops!

- 1 Pitch change photo sensor that you can wave your hand over without touching it to change the pitch of the sound or loop, just like playing a theremin. This is one of the best feature of the FREAKENSPEAK. You can also use a lazer pointer or flashlight on the photo sensor for a cool effect.This is a great feature for live performance.
