RE: loops for dance music & album rec for ALL loopers

[philip raath <philraath@yahoo.com>]

i think i am now, since i just bought a repeater...

had a bunch of drum loops programmed from a studio
that i used to work at, but hadn't been able to use
them much as i can't sync my boomerang to my
sampler...

but now i'm been loading them onto the 'peater and
it's a whole different world of stuff that i'm coming
up with, 

drum'n'bass beats lead to groovier basslines, which
i'm playing on the guitar and pitchshifting

i've long been into middle eastern music/dastgah
scales, now i have some programmed "tabla" loops
loaded up and it's giving it a different, possibly
danceable, feel...

problem w/ the boomerang (which i love, don't
misunderstand) was that in creating percussive loops
on the guitar, after 5 or 6 layers the percussive was
completely decayed, that's no longer an issue

so while i have been doing lots of rythmic, groovy
stuff w/ the boomerang, the possibilities are now just
exponentiated by the repeater, and i'm moving more in
that direction for now

excellent thread...good idea paul and dt

cheers,

phil
