THE GOLDEN AGE - BEHIND THE SOUND OF A CASSETTE TAPE LOOP

About the creative process behind the ambient music track "THE GOLDEN AGE". I found perfect little voices recorded on old magnetic tapes and I tried to make a lo-fi ambient tape loop of them on cassette... then I played the loop with delay, reverb and timestreching pedals. The first part of the video explains the creative process: finding the sound, making the cassette loop... And the second part is a live music track that I play using the tape loop I made in part one and my modular synthetizer..

@@alastpicturefromvoyager Moi qui aime beaucoup le tape loop (et qui le pratique un peu), je suis très surpris de ne découvrir ton travail que maintenant. C'est beau, dans tous les sens du terme. Musicalement, plastiquement. Un vrai plaisir. Je m'abonne !

[@alastpicturefromvoyager]

Merci beaucoup ça fait vraiment plaisir de lire tes mots !!!

[@alexmusic5013]

What pitch correction did you use?

[@alastpicturefromvoyager]

I use the "flex pitch" from Logic Pro X. One of the best tool for pitch correction, and it is native with the DAW ;-)

[@alexmusic5013]

@@alastpicturefromvoyager Dude, you’ve just fucking blown my mind. Been using logic for 13 years, completely ignored flex-pitch when i’d use flextime for things. It looked native, which is why i asked! Forget melodyne, you just changed my life! Thank you, sir.

[@alastpicturefromvoyager]

@@alexmusic5013 I had the same reaction when I discovered this tool after most years using melodyne ! Happy to help you. let me know if you find flex pitch as good as you need.
