And what am I doing.. ALL is live sampled guitar.. no canned loops

Sampling on 4 tracks and playing back with slower speed and all set to diffrent rates accordeign to just intonation intervals. Each track is the played back with lenght och the sequencer track set so that the whole sample is played... this way all playback track have diffrent lenghts also in "just" intervals...

Then i improvise/play a melody over my sampled guitar and sometimes sampling guitar again...

the intervals:

Just interval Playback Rate               Sequencer Steps

.......5/4...................40.................................44

......3/2....................48.................................40

.......9/8................. .36.................................46

.......15/8...............  .60.................................34

So the different loop lenghts gives a organic and evolving feel, first I have all loops recorded at once later I sometimes re-record all or most often one of the loops.. 

All is done 100% live with guitar into Elektron Octatrack straight into recorder... 

ENJOY
