About this Event
A primer on magnetic tape, no-input mixing techniques, tape loops, and analog tape echo. How it works, how to set it up, how to play with it. We'll build a cassette loop and jam with reel-to-reel- and cassette-based echo systems. We'll show how to extend those techniques further with additional digital loopers and feedback systems.
This is for:
- Anyone (not just musicians) who is curious about incorporating analog tape equipment into their adventures in audio,
- Anyone interested in analog electronics and music technology,
- Musicians looking to experiment with strange, non-linear processing and recording techniques,
Participants do not need to bring any equipment with them but are encouraged to bring (if possible) the following:
- something to record with (an instrument, a microphone, a digital recording, another cassette),
- any cables and adapters you might need for the above equipment,
- a blank cassette or two,
- a tape splicing block,
- splicing tape for 1/8" tape,
New York native Nat Homer is an experimental electronic musician focusing on analog feedback systems and composition tools. Ambient, drone, noise, minimalism, psychedelia, and rock. 15+ years of recording and performing experience
