Explore sonic degradation and recombination with Tape, a collection of hundreds of individually handcrafted and uniquely-styled percussive strikes, stingers, multisamples and effects that will burn right through your mix. Tape’s unique sound comes from acoustic recordings he captured through destroyed cassette and microcassette tapes, then carefully twisted and mangled into a distinctive collection of easy “out-of-the-box” content for all of your electronic and hybrid percussion needs. Tape is perfect for minimalist, EDM, IDM, dubstep, chillwave, glitch, post rock, soundtrack, downtempo, dub and ambient music. It’s also fantastic for sci-fi sound design and creating user interface SFX for games and apps.
When developing the concept for Tape, the Soundiron’ sound designers were inspired by the gritty, “lo-fi” and “dusty” quality of various sound sources fed into decades-old tape recorders. The variable speed, wow and flutter effects, and mechanical sounds all come together to create something very dark and powerful. Armed with this knowledge they set out on a journey of sound design and discovery for several months, all the while ensuring to maintain the original gritty tape qualities at every stage.
