ALOOPISALOOPISALOOP

It started out as helping a buddy.

He wanted the beat of Hot Thing, so he could use it as background beat to his rap. Just practise, mind, just practise.

I put it in a Mini Disc.

But one minidisc with just 5 seconds is SO silly. So I thought; I'll give him something to rap over. By now I have 57 looped beats on the MD. And that's just aboput 5 minutes worth of playing time. LoL

The stuff from 1999 is AWESOME. I just love that Lynne computer sound.

But the kewlest are;

The introbeat of Horny Toad.
The beat of Andre Cymone's The Dance Electric.
and
The beat of Forever In My Life.

It's fun cutting up the beats until the fit into a perfect loop. I even play 45 RPM vinyl on 33 RPM speed; works GREAT for Sign O THe Times.

I've used a loop from Kiss loads of times. It's so versatile (and stretchy) !
You can practically throw it into anything and it works.

I even made a 'Kissed' version of Buddy Holly's Not Fade Away.
Sacrilege I know, but somebody had to do it. lol

Yeah, and Forever In My Life is one of my favourites too.

And the synth bit from Gold is another, played backwards, stretched, squoze, mangled, and chewed - I got a whole 'song' out of one sample.
Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP.

Nobody's into looping, obviously.

It's loverly to play Soft & Wet as a loop.
