Hi hello and love to all I had an idea a little while ago that I'd try and put a microphone in the window (I live on the 7th floor above a busy street) and hook it up to this pedal thingie that I can use to loop the input (although it loops it in reverse) and then I'd see what became of it, if the sound of the cars and people and building ventilation systems would just produce pure static or if something would gradually emerge if I just let it go and layer more and more sound on top of itself. It didn't produce static, and were actually quite interesting (imo), and I thought it may be a nice idea to ask other people to attempt the same thing and see what they got out of it.. so if anyone has the possibility (a mic and something that can loop continually.. a delay pedal or a tape loop or something), I'd love to hear what your surroundings sound like if they are looped on top of themselves. |

good one! not entirely what I originally thought of, but still good.. could quite possibly make a good background for a track! |
||||||||
|

|
|
good histamines! |
||||||||
|
|

sounds interesting. could be a track with some drones thrown in for good measure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks! do one if you can! what's drones? |
||||||||
|
|

I might have to do this. |
||||||||
|

it would be lovely if you did. |

I love the sounds of the outside-world. I'd happily listen to an album consisting of cars driving by, scattered conversations, the sounds of a street... maybe with soft reverb to give it that lazy-day ethereal quality. I think it's one of the reasons I love Chill Out by the KLF so much -- those rumbling trains just reduce me. |

Interesting how the loops build up into high pitched feedback kinda sounds rather than static. |
||||||||
|
|

I tried recording people walking and talking once with this awesome directional mic my cousin brought by (he was doing sound for a movie).. I could direct it at a point on the street and hear footsteps and cars driving by, etc.. it was awesome! I decided against using the recordings, though (except for the ambience and footsteps) because.. well, I wouldn't want anyone who's a complete stranger to me to record me talking on the street and put it in a song... |
||||||||

|

yeah.. I've done a few of these now (only recorded this one) and they don't necessarily even end up with a tone like that.. it could just go to static, or it could go completely into the "washing machine" sound that all the recordings get (probably because of the length of the loop). In the first one it turned into something that sounded like crickets rather than feedback... |

that was great....... i'd do one myself but all my equipment is still packed away cause i just moved house........ maybe later |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
quite interresting result there drunqk. but i'm not sure how to record a loop over itself overandover.. i have some quite interesting bg noise here now actually. |
||||||||

damned! repost the links those who did something |

hafler trio does a lot of this sort of thing. he actually posted that link in the h3o mailing list, saying that it was just like the release 'mastery of money' except for 1 difference. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that looks great! the samples sound quite a bit more melodic than what I've managed to get so far as well... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh, it's quite nice, but I think you did something different from what my awesome drawing illustrated (ha!).. the loops should kind of be layered on top of each other... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know futureimage did one that also went missing in the restoration process, does anyone know the link? and.. did anyone else do anything? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i did that in the first place...which lead to complete mayhem and chaos - too many cars were going in the bkgd, heh, so i decided to make it again, with changed pattern of the sample channels - they were on top of each other, but not all at once - so the samples could be heard your drawing was very awesome indeed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, ok then! yeah, I even had audio proof that my drawing was great! |
||||||||

Thank god I save YSI emails. |

awesome stuff guys! |
||||||||

|

|
|
awesome! the plane made a really good impression on it what with the doppler effect and all! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
those kids sound totally freaky |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know, as soon as I heard the plane, I just grinned. The kids are weird too, I hoped they'd start playing. They are now. |
||||||||

|
|
great topic, dm. I like sonic experiments! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks, and me too! that's why I do them. loop your surroundings and post it here! |
