Experimental analog sampling with modified vinyls. Sectors from a vinyl record are cut and replaced by pieces with exact shape from other records. When played in a vinyl player the needle follows the grooves from both sectors creating sampled tunes or loops.

In this video:
Supertramp – Crisis? What Crisis?
Paul Anka – My Way
Chicago – Chicago X
Lil Jon – Kings of Crunk

fresh music always ;)

Theodore Watson designed this piece for the inaugural Rotterdam Electronic Music Festival. The idea is pretty simple. A giant record is projected on the floor and it can be played by running around its surface in the direction you want it to go. If you run slow the record plays slow, if you run fast the record goes fast etc.. Next version will have scratch mode according to Theo. We can’t wait to test it!
