Phase Shifting Tape Loops Like Steve Reich and Basinski

wow man this is a crazy technique , thanks a lot .

Tried this while watching - did not turn out as well as yours lol

U r a gem! Always inspiring!

Look at all the winners on this video!

i keep saying this about every video, but damn, super useful… thank you!

Steve Reich didn’t "take two tapes". Actual musicians with real instruments played the music.

This is a beautiful technique! Thanks for sharing your deep knowledge of OT with such friendly and positive attitude. Have a great day 🙂

Do a tutorial where you control a vst in a daw with an Elektron device.

When did you learn to appreciate salat Ezbot? Did you learn to appreciate it elsewhere?

My refridgerator stinks because I am working at Google. I am man handling sounds to me an others. What else is this?

Hi so I am working at google and my refridgerator stinks

Literally people at Google deciding how loud you should sound.

Hello, so I had a lot of synthesizers I couldnt play.

Let my nephews we smoking sawdust

Love it❤

I dream of doing the same with midi

this is so awesome n beautiful :) i'm about to get an octatrack and i'm excited to use your videos as inspiration for exploration. you have so many great ideas and your passion really comes thru!

Good stuff

Beautiful 🎶🎧

Very nice! Could it be done with a Syntakt as well?

Amazing!!❤

Thanks!

So cool - Thanks.

Thanks for inspiring me to use this machine in a new creative way. Your tutorials on the octatrack are so useful and actionable to make music. You the man.

Spent an hour playing around with this this morning. That moment when it first starts to drift apart is so cool

Beautiful :) Love your tutorials, Matthew - you're awesome. :)

❤❤❤

can a similar thing be done with digitakt?

noice 👌

You read my mind, was just thinking about piano ambient loops this week

Very cool... you inspired me to dust off lydian mode on my guitar and find some melodies!

Excellent. I’m just a couple of weeks into learning the Octatrack and this is just the sort of thing that makes it so exciting. I’ve been using the Soma Cosmos (which works in a similar way) for live performances and this has me wondering.. There’s a lot I don’t fully understand yet so forgive my ignorance but would it be possible to use a pickup machine with a neighbour machine to achieve a similar effect with live input or is that wishful thinking?! Thanks for this.

Great stuff!

You’re so cool

Ok now I’d love to see this done on the M8!

brooooo tysm for this! So cool.

I enjoyed this.

Now we're talking.. would love more mini creative tutorials like this.

also.. I'm mad jealous of those red buttons

I often record live loops from my modular system with the Octatrack. I'm really excited to try out this phasing technique with it.

I first fell in love with Reich's Music for 18 Musicians. Love his pattern and phasing work with things like Drumming and Piano Phase. But I haven't yet fully appreciated his tape and multimedia work. Thanks for making this.

cool cool cool

Great video as always. Have been doing this type of stuff with the OT for years. Love it!

The result sounds and has a similar principle like Ensoniq’s Hyperwaves on the TS-12 and later the Fizmo, with a bit higher resolution samples in the Octatrack but if you do bit reduction on those samples it would sounds pretty close.
This principle can also be follow on the Wavestation and now wavestate.
Still Octatrack has better trig conditions than Korg or Ensoniq, all thou Ensoniq Sequencer is still one of the best to be sport on a synthesizer ever.

Great find and tutorial.

Very cool, love exploring these tape techniques through modern instruments. Would love to see more off the grid workflows for the elektron boxes!

"Damn it, Octatrack." -The spa music industry. (Cool demo, man!)

Another great one EZB!

What is cool about the Octatrack is that it can be so many different kinds of device, I mean, you could spend days and days just playing around with the setup Matthew has here, without even touching the other modes that you can set up.

Doesn't sound like Minimal Techno

Wind instrument sounds like a Ney or Bamboo Flute
