[@chrisbrown18andup]

direct drive, isn't it? belt drive most likely would not work.

[@chrisbrown18andup]

first paragraph in the sl1200 wiki "Originally released as a high fidelity consumer record player, it quickly became adopted among radio and club disc jockeys, thanks to the direct drive, high torque motor design, making it initially suitable for pushbutton cueing and starting of tracks on radio"

[@SianaGearz]

Yes, for the longest time only Technics made this particular kind of motor. It's not the typical arrangement where the motor is coupled to the platter, instead, the only moving part inside the body is the massive spindle bearing, and the platter itself is the magnetic rotor of the drive. There are no wimpy mild steel mounts there that could bend.

I’m thinking what it must have been like for this guy to dream this all up and picture it in his head. This demonstrates perfectly how electronic music uses a layered approach to song building.

[@grahamdunning]

I didn't dream it all up and picture it in my head, that's not how I work. I tested lots of things out and played around with materials and equipment - kept what worked and put it together to make this. Glad that it gets across how the layering of music works! It's definitely informed by how I learnt to record music with a 4-track tape recorder, and also using Fruity Loops.

[@middleclassic]

@@grahamdunning : Ha! I just watched your Mechanical Techno Boiler Room set. Most excellent to get a reply from you. When I said “Dreaming it up in your head”, I must admit I pictured myself, in my head, building up piece by piece what you created. At times I create something out of found objects or known objects / materials and felt in tune with what you were doing even though I have never attempted anything like this. I think it’s safe to say I feel very inspired by your creation. Please keep it up. I can’t wait to see where it takes you next :-)

This is future of music : back to basics and roots

[@mollymurphy999]

What a magnificent turntable

[@speedysandisk78]

Love the "Look Around You" style video :D

[@grahamdunning]

Thants!

[@ConlethNew]

Awesome response to brilliant comment lmfao

[@roitsch8693]

I don't quite understand how the Bassline with the speaker works? Could someone maybe explain?

[@grahamdunning]

If you wire a speaker backwards, (ie plug it into an input of the mixer, rather than an output of an amplifier) it works like a giant microphone. tapping on the diaphragm of the speaker with the beater makes a 'bump' sound. It's then going into a delay pedal to repeat that short bump several times very quickly, turning it into more of a low bass note.

[@MageAtYou]

+Graham Dunning had no idea thats cool

[@roitsch8693]

Thanks dude! Very interesting stuff!

[@christopherdiedrich40]

Roitsch~great question Graham~U r A wizard! Everybody~clapyo hands

[@PubstarHero]

I've had to use that trick when there was no mic on stage when DJing and we had to make an announcement. Just plugged my headphone into the microphone jack. It came out like crap, but it worked.

[@judsonsnell]

As cool as it is, the result sounds like that one dj who just never quite could get the hang of beatmatching.

[@grahamdunning]

it me

[@sivansharma5027]

That's probably just how techno is

[@TerryBeatson]

It adds a slightly more human element imo.

[@DarkAbysmalSmoke]

Ehh for what it was .. It was cool. I would have fixed the cymbal/snap/claps and made the track line up a bit better. But that's more of a production thing, no?

[@wreignone]

So cool. Id be even more impressed if you made a whole set

[@grahamdunning]

thanks! here's a full live set: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIbEZ2eObcediaM

[@wreignone]

@@grahamdunning holy crap!!! Thats awesome!!!!!!

[@indigochihuahua05]

The Rube Goldberg machine of techno demonstrations.

[@TheRamprage5]

this is some animusic shit right here... so dope.

[@TheKoijotito]

Sounds like Mr Oizo. Must be his way of producing beats.

[@timbermicka]

+Koijo Tito It's actually close. All his albums after 2005 are just him making nonsense with Albeton (but he still good). For Flat Beat, it was a Roland Tr-606 Drumatix and some samples. [Sorry for my bad english.]

[@Sey_Les]

This helped me see its not about the gear. I wonder how or if you could even make a "rise" without a DAW

[@Krisisawake]

Incredible! This guy is nut :)

[@Jamesdavenelson]

I too think he is nut

[@chrislaz9239]

Lazers we were all nut in the beginning

[@grame141]

feena bus a nut

[@Wlodek1410]

Kris Grym he is :)

[@hatsunemiku-fu8jg]

this dude semen

[@torx0149]

i found this satisfying for some reason..

[@uncrownedoak7777]

kingdomatthi it's called listening to music

[@torx0149]

i listen alot to ASMR already yes. But i think this is different

[@kengruz669]

please elaborate, Tor Jakobsen. I need to know why you said this, for some reason. For some reason, i'm imagining a person who never knows the reason they think or feel things, and shares that sentiment with the world each time they express themselves. This intrigues me, for some reason.

[@markus3355]

I can see why it’s called “techno”

[@95874582149]

because it is minimal

[@ihavecreatism9776]

oh god, this is either pretty clever or I interpreted it wrong... I'll call it technono from now on.

[@Dreamwoerx]

Don´t understand the people who dislike such great work. Nice job.

[@adrienbeaufils3598]

The return of the mechanic sequencer. :)

[@looxai_talent_mgmt]

Would love to see a 1hour live set of this guy.

[@grahamdunning]
