Stockhausen:Conversations with the composer

contains reference to looping and other tape based techniques.

As I remember it KS had a method for 'Frippertronics' using only one tape 
deck.
A tape loop was used, but the order of the tape heads was changed from the 
usual
erase-record-playback to playback-erase-record. So basically he then had
a tape delay for  the length of the loop, and by using feedback he had a 
looper.
