Beats & Drones - Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge

The challenge of this weekend was to do a live jam combining beats and drones.
A great way to produce drone sounds is to use feedback loops inside a mixer (also known as no-input mixing) and spice them up with some effects.
For this jam I route the mixer output to the Kaoss Pad KP3+ which I use for live sampling and layering of the mixer sounds and a HP-gate effect. From there it goes to the Circuit Tracks which does the beat part and adds some additional delay and reverb.
Thanks for watching and happy droning! :)

From the start, the drone called to me,
The beat so sweet, I moved my feet,
Lush and quirky, space-like sounds,
Funkadelic chaos comes around,
Deep and lush and full of groove,
How can this jam not make you move?!
