Loopmasters has released Circuit Bent Sounds Volume 1, a sample library created in conjunction with Paul Norris of Circuitbenders.co.uk.
Circuit Bending was a term first used to refer to the art of taking an ordinary electronic toy such as a Texas Instruments Speak&Spell, and rewiring the circuitry to produce a device capable of creating all manner of weird and unlikely sounds.
Circuit Bent instruments are used by many bands and producers including: Kraftwerk, Hallucinogen, Plump DJ’s, Shpongle, Jack Dangers (Meat Beat Manifesto), Nine Inch Nails, Autechre, Aphex Twin, Eat Static, 16 Volt, matrix22 and numerous experimental, industrial, techno and ambient artists.
