Infinite Satellite Tapes Vol. 36 | 31 min Italo Disco & Nu-Disco Oscilloscope Mixtape

Infinite Satellite Tapes Vol. 36 - 31 minutes of italo disco & nu-disco 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. Afterglow '87 (Italo Disco, 119 BPM, F# aeolian) 3:29 02. Holographic Ocean (Italo Disco, 124 BPM, A dorian) 7:35 03. Miami Palms (Nu-Disco, 114 BPM, D ionian) 12:04 04.

Endless Pulse (Space Disco, 115 BPM, B 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
