Le Temps Est Bon: a Blackbox vocal chops remix

since my studios is in the middle of a re-org, and everything is in little piles, it was a good opportunity to see if I could do a track 100% in the 1010Music Blackbox, forcing me to only use samples and loops, something I've never done before.
Within the context of the full studio setup, the blackbox sequencer doesn't hold up, but I think it's going to be a great sampler, for loops, sampled drums and of course vocal chops.
Le Temps Est Bon is a French-Canadian (Québécois!) song from the hippie side of the 70s, and the title song of Gilles Carle 1971 movie "Les Mâles", interpreted by Isabelle Pierre.
I first heard of it as a remix by Les Bons Entendeurs, then a chillhop one by Degiheugi. ( let me know what you think of my version )

Wow what a great live performance with this black box. I think this video will sell some of these.

beau boulot!

[@sixdonuts]

Very nice track.

[@Knob2Loop]

Great vibe! I'm seriously considering getting one.

[@OlivierOzoux]

I’m enjoying it. It’s obviously fairly limited, but like all devices that’s part of what makes it fun. I can’t wait to use it with the rest of my gear ( once I finish the studio rebuild )

[@Knob2Loop]

@@OlivierOzoux Yeah I can see that it's fairly limited... but nevertheless it has a few features that I sorely miss on my Digitakt, i.e. reading samples from sd card and a song mode... I wish there was a machine that could do it all :) Merci pour le video!

[@jaynaik1902]

Mon Dieu, c'est fanatastique! I was wondering what you could do with vocal samples with the Blackbox. And those birds....wow.

[@tlsisk69]

Very nice! I’m loving my BB but it does have some annoyances:

[@WildernessMusic_GentleSerene]

I don't like the track length limitation and can't turn off quantize, but other than that it is true musicians instrument. I play in my own samples from vocals to synths and acoustic instruments. This way my song/project samples are precisely made for the song, it is wonderful. I don't need all the controls of other samplers, they just get in the way of me simply playing my acoustic instruments right into the BB.

[@OlivierOzoux]

It’s an extremely limited sequencer if you compare it to other sequencers, like Elektron, Deluge, or Pyramid, it’s not really in the same class. It’s an ok basic sequencer, and I’m glad it’s there, but my next step is to explore the Pyramid/Blackbox combo.

[@WildernessMusic_GentleSerene]

@@OlivierOzoux Oh, yes, I agree, I have found that there is not a "one" sampler/sequencer that will do the whole job. My main sequencer is a Casio MZ-X500, I program the pattern sequencer from blank to fit each song. I layer it with an Electribe2 and/or a Casio XWP1. The BB is going to play my own samples only and now can add acoustic guitar phrases and vocals on the fly.
