i wish i had my camera here to shoot this. :(

ive built a mini drumkit by covering various
pots/pans/cups/bowls etc with cling film. Ive mic'd them all
up really close. It sounds ace !

just thoughht id share that with you

im doing a very silly track with them. Ive got a huge
crystal glass vase with the film stretched to the limit on
top. It makes a wacky reverb unit!

ill put this track up tomorrow

That makes me think of the cool effect I can get with one of
my saucepans- I have one with a really long handle and when
you bang it, it vibrates for ages. It sounds like a tuning
fork with a lot of reverb, various amounts of water change
the pitch. Something that was particularly good with it was
hitting it really hard then filling itwith water as it still
vibrated. My flatmate looked at me as if I was insane...

I love everyday noises. The photocopier in work does some
crazy breakbeats.

Haha! Yeah, I love the rhythms of office machines. I have an
old Epson dot matrix printer that whips vsnares's ass. :-)

Yeah! I worked in a factory during vacation.
There was this machine that made a sound even Aphex probably
cant make.

I bet he could make it if you got him drunk enough and
pushed him into that machine.

hehe cool idea

on this music course i was on, there was a drummer there
called Adam Bushell, and he told me a story about how he
decided to become a musician:
he was working in a stationary store, looking after the
photocopier, and one day he said "there's something wrong
with the photocopier, it's rhythm isnt right, its changed"
no one paid any attention to him. the next day the
photocopier broke down, he eventually left his job and went
on to become an amazing drummer :D

my mum has this really really big saucepan lid about 15"
dia. at least. when i hit it with a wooden spoon it makes
this wicked reverb gong type sound. ive got about 20
different samples of it. best one is in the bathroom. oh and
yes dot matrix music is cool. i remember we had this OLD bbc
with dotmatrix and we tried to make music by printing out
random words sort of like this . . . . . . . . . . . # . .:.

Heh heh. I had this really primitive voice sysnthesis
program for Dos back when I was running a 386... by
alternating various consonants you could make some really
crazy rhythms and slip in some verbal phrases.

tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh tuh
kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh kuh
tuh puh ka tuh puh ka tuh kuh

etcetera...

You'd have to use maybe a piezo contact mike on the can to
really get the resonance.

i love recording/sampling percussion using pop cans. the
best is from snaping the the little metal piece on the top.
