Apple Logic Audio, old Akai samplers (Live Pics), Korg M1 Workstation, old Grundig tapemachine...thats what they mention in interviews...

Try to mix a short piano sample with a slightly distorted sine wave. Use Lfo's for a wobbly character...
it's not that complicated...

To me it seems most likley someone just ripped samples of trails and 747 from http://www.atomless.com/projects/boc/site/ (hence the song name flash site) and added the happy cycling samples.

But the sounds on that site where in bad quality and this track here is in very good quality. So it could ...

Oh happy day...

I think there image as sound innovators is overrated, most of the elements of their music are existing for a long time. For example the psychedelic rocksounds of the late 60s/early 70s. But they are brilliant collectors and from all these ingredients they cook a very very tasty meal that keeps us ...

Hi,

thanks for sending that link, a great programme.

This forum has become so stupid, somebody asks a normal question and only receives shit.
To 747: If you read through the interviews on Freddys pages, M. and M. explain a lot. Akai S1000, Logic Audio, Korg M1, just to name a few pieces of gear...
Cheers. Esky

As they will never again sell so many albums like they did 6 or 8 years ago, this is their new way to earn a good living for themselves and their families. Now they have their backs free and money and time to record a good new album....

Can someone convert this for Apple users...? Donno how to do this...

i stick to what i said for now, i think it fits a bit too well. of course they use plenty of other gear i'm sure. even just listening through Old Tunes Vol. II a little bit ago, i swear there's sounds on there that must be a SID (and a few that sound quite obvious, like 'Iraq Says...', etc. then ...

Hello,

i know some of you are into producing electronic music themselves (as one can see on myspace links). And some may even use Native Instruments Reaktor 5 Program. Here are three links to my userlibrary apperance that might be interesting for you. Actually tribute to BOC work... :) :

I've got a card for the M1 with a patch on it called, "Dawn Chorus".

Hi,

if you put all the information from interviews and articles together it come's out they use quite common equipment, not very spectacular. Logic Audio on a Mac for recording, some old analog synth. But the way the do processing (the old tape machine story) and all this screwing up of sounds is ...
