disassembler

disassembler

Disassembler first discovered using the Game Boy as a music tool in 1998 when Nintendo released the Game Boy Camera, which housed the Trippy-H music sequencer. Its features were limited and there weren’t a lot of people making music with it at the time. In 2002 he discovered the Nanoloop 1.0 compilation at a local record shop and soon picked up his first Nanoloop cartridge. Since then he has been developing his own stylistic sound experimenting with a number of techniques and approaches to making music. In addition to using Game Boys and effects, he also uses software such as Native Instruments Reaktor 5 and Twerk’s Drool String Ukelele to manipulate sampled sounds from Nanoloop, adding gritty textures and reconstructed beats to what is already a very distinct sound set. He draws a lot of influence from IDM, Minimal Techno, Acid Techno of the mid-1990s and Berlin’s current Electronic music scene.

  • disassembler : @Grizzley The Resonators effect in Abelton Live. I used the Prague preset and changed the filter setting slightly.
