Biscuiting w/ a pinky drum synth (by Franck Smith)


Biscuiting w/ a pinky drum synth (by Franck Smith) © 2010 — Biscuit by Oto Machines is a 8-bit effects/processor allowing precise Lo-Fi treatments and rate frequency downgrading. Used here with drum synth mixing adapted turntable drumming and scratching technics w/ video-game esthetic and real-time electronic beat-making (No loops and no sequencer used here).

Material in this video:
- Handsonic HPD-15 (by Roland)
- Biscuit (by Oto Machines) *FX section not used here

N.B. Some of the routines obtained here were partly inspired -- in their content and esthetic -- by turntablists Qbert and D-styles . Although nothing can rival real vinyl manipulation by experts, a personal adaptation of these techniques on Handsonic makes imagine new ways in real time electronics.

IF POSSIBLE USE HEADPHONES WHEN VIEWING VIDEO MATERIAL OR CONNECT YOUR COMPUTER TO A QUITE DECENT SOUND SYSTEM.
