LLOOPP/PPOOLL Tutorial Part 1

Posted on by

This is my one and only software tool!
I love it and I hate it, an everlasting affair.
I call it ‘INSTANT COLLAGE’!
I used it a lot, check the electric souvenir soundcloud page!

https://soundcloud.com/electric-souvenir


I use LLOOPP/PPOOLL [by Klaus Filip a.o.] together with GLEETCHLAB [by Giorgio Sancristoforo] and SOUNDHACK [by Tom Erbe]

If you found your way here, i assume you are in need of some info on how
to get this stuff working. That’s the reason i’m posting the tutorial.

Just some background info:

Even though I’m not using LLOOPP/PPOOLL a lot at the moment [ my orientation is analogue these days ] i must say that using this software will bring you a lot, it’s a box full of surprises, new sounds, new ideas. If it was only for this purpose [to open yourself up for new musical insights] that would be enough reason to give it a try, give it time and enjoy. It will be very rewarding.

Ic stont op hoghen berghen [for Anton Webern]

Posted on by

let’s start the new year with the release of a new electric souvenir song we made last july. ” Ic stont op hoghen berghen ” [I stood on the highest mountain/s] is a tribute to Anton Webern, a composer who we both love and who, now 70 years ago, was mistakingly killed by an american soldier who, haunted by this terrible accident, took his own life a few years later.

Ic stont op hoghen berghen [for Anton Webern] 10’35”                                                 [title derived from a minstrel song from 14th/15th Century]
