Nick Warren- week 4

Video 1: Drone Music with granular synthesis (glory to the Hypnotoad)


I was searching around for some granular synthesis stuff, and I found this. I really like the textures granular synthesis techniques can create when used for ambience/drones.



Video 2: Foo Fighters Meets 70's Bobby Caldwell - Live Looping Mashup by Elise Trouw



This is just a really well-done example of looping with acoustic drums. There is some looping of the acoustic drums and some non-looped playing along with the loop. I think both are valid, but I think I would prefer just having someone play along with a loop on drums.


Video 3: Willy Wonka w/ drums



I have seen similar things done with bass or guitar, but I just found this guy who does it on drums. I was thinking we could do something similar to this with the vocals we record, except probably loop smaller phrases or words with our piece.
