Digital Lights Tapes Vol. 29 | 25 min Italo Disco & Outrun Oscilloscope Mixtape

Digital Lights Tapes Vol. 29 - 25 minutes of italo disco & outrun where every sound is a picture. Every glowing line in this video is a sound. Each instrument has its own beam, and the beam's X/Y deflection is that instrument's own stereo signal: the bass is the landscape, the chords are the sky, the lead melody is the hero moving with its pitch, the drums are rings and sparks. Nothing here is a sample, a preset or a loop: melodies, harmony, sound design and the vector art are all generated from scratch for this video. Tracklist 0:00 01. Digital Lights (Italo Disco, 123 BPM, D aeolian) 3:38 02. Saint-Tropez Romance (Italo Disco, 116 BPM, B aeolian) 7:45 03. Laser Riviera (Outrun, 108 BPM, A aeolian) 11:53 04. Montreal Galaxy (Italo Disco, 123 BPM, F# aeolian) 16:01 05. Candy Vegas (Italo Disco, 117 BPM, E dorian) 20:07 06. Midnight Horizon (Outrun, 108 BPM, C# aeolian) How it works: a shape is stored as its Fourier series, so the same numbers are its harmonics and its outline. A filter sweep is the figure sharpening and melting, resonance is ripples running round it, a chord in just intonation is figures that stand perfectly still together. Headphones recommended. 4K. #synthwave #oscilloscopemusic #italo
