8bitcollective - 03/10/2016

This is a collection of tracks and songs using Nanoloop for iOS/Android, Nanoloop 3, developed by Oliver Wittchow. Some tracks are only made with only the software and mixed in it, but some authors use post-processing or other software and instruments. A few vocal tracks are included in the anthology as well.
The period, 2014-2016, is correspond to 'after' (the latest) major update of Nanoloop 3 in the end of 2013. The update enabled some important new functions: http://the-palm-sound.blogspot.jp/2013/12/nanoloop-gets-major-update-on-ios.html Additionally, before and after it, the sounds of Nanoloop 3 changed significantly due to the new sound engine/.

このプレイリストはOliver Wittchowによって開発されたiOS/Android用Nanoloop、Nanoloop3を用いて制作されたトラック・楽曲をまとめたものです。一部のトラックはこのソフトウェアのみを使用して制作され、またソフトウェア内でミックスされていますが、ポストプロセッシングあるいは他のソフトウェアや楽器を用いている作者もいます。さらにこのアンソロジーにはボーカルトラックが数曲、含まれています。
表題にある「2014-2016」という期間は、2013年の終わりに行われたNanoloop 3の（今のところ最新の）大型アップデート「以降」に該当します。このアップデートによっていくつかの重要な新機能が可能になりました。http://the-palm-sound.blogspot.jp/2013/12/nanoloop-gets-major-update-on-ios.html 加えて、サウンドエンジンも刷新されたため、この前後でNanoloop 3のサウンドとミキサーは大幅に変わることとなりました。

Potential Damage

For this week’s Junto I chose to add thin layers to Insula Dulcamara’s ‘Tiny Phases’ track: https://soundcloud.com/insuladulcamara-726539207/tiny-phase-disquiet0215-tinyrhythms?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0215

I have been playing with homemade tape loops (https://www.instagram.com/p/BBfzyFMND3b/) and the Nanoloop app (http://nanoloop.com) a lot lately, and thought the very thin layer of tape would be a perfect fit for this week’s project.

I put Insula Dulcamara’s track on repeat and played around in Nanoloop until I had two loops: one a series of bleeps and bloops, and another a slower, layered drone.

One by one I recorded these into my cassette tape recorder (a Sony TCM-200DV) onto the tape loop, and then captured the tape loop audio into Ableton at three different speeds using the recorder’s built-in speed control wheel.

After these three I captured what was on the flip-side of the tape: a recording of me plucking a few guitar strings. I pitched this to be in tune with the other loops.

I arranged the bleeping nano-tape-loop to rhythmically juxtapose the original track, and then brought in the other drone-y tape loops one at a time.

Photo for this track by me. It’s the tape loop I used for this track laid on top of my iPhone open to the Nanoloop app.
