This is a pretty nice glitch from my speak n spell toy. It has a certain degree of raw harshness blended with a mechanical bubble loop.

Series of interesting descending bleeps made by circuit-bent yamaha rx17 drum machine feeding lexicon mpx 100 fx unit with feedback loop.

More amateur bending by me. Really sad sounding. Dark. Simple buzzing and hums. With delay/reverb.

Ambience school and park with birds.

Simple buzzing and hums, it came from a simon-says, actually. Apparently makes for a good backround ;). Kinda dark.

My voice though a homemade effect box. Kind of a bit-crusher, phaser, pitch-shifting thing. Very lo-fi because i like that kind of thing.

A speaking educational toy run through a homemade bit-crushing and pith-shifting effects box. Very lo-fi (because i like that sort of thing).

Sound is a home-made circuit bent walkie talkie fashioned into a sort of opto-theremin. Main fx used to process it: boss xtortion and wattson superfuzz, with various other fx switched on and tweaked in the middle. Very much like a chainsaw in the beginning. . . That or a motorbike. The "reving engine" effect was created by blocking the amount of light going to the photocell (which was ripped out of a furby!).

Around 2010, i circuit-bent a motorola cellphone and added a control surface to control the bends. Then i added an atari paddlewheel so its big potentiometer could be used to do pitchbends, and the result is an instrument i called the "sonic electronic ball breaker". It's got knives, quarterstaves, thor's lightning, sharp sticks, nuclear machineshotguns, and even some claws that come out to jab 'em. In this sample i'm going through and playing with the controls to see what i get. These sounds are pretty abrasive, but they work well when run through a bunch of effects.

This is a casio sk-1 i did around a year ago or so from reeds book plus a video out and 18 on board rca jacks with another 25 pin dpi that can run through a breakbox. Noise and bent sounds as usual. Crashes alot. Oh and it's not the hardest "mother of bends" serious, i wore socks and everything. : ).

I took a fairly drone-like-ambience, placed it in reaper's media explorer, and just had fun changing the loop size while recording the desktop.

I tried to import a raw, pcm audio sample into audacity and it came out like this. It was alot worse when it was imported, right now this is about as audibly palatable as i could get it to. This is still loud, so turn your speakers down a little bit before playing.

Sound remixed fromoriginal audio:circuit breaker 2 dp. Wavsribubba. Added it to simpler, put it in c# i think, added a filter, plus some echo and reverb, added to a one shot and resampled it to this. Hope you like the noise and can use it.

A czech guy named "staney the robot man" who lives in prague build this little synth. It's completely handmade and consists of a bunch of analog circuitry that when powered creates strange oscillations in current. It's also built into a seseame street toy saxophone. This set sounds like a robot talking. If chopped up and sequenced you could do a lot with it.

You are bidding on! no, these are my pss 270 synth cutter,i finally busted that bitch out of storage again, it is processed through a korg kaoss pad with the reverbeffect. So it is semi noisy, enjoy. ! good for some back drops, if youmess with the glitches you can hit a key to sync the key to a drumloop,and the drumloop becomes the keyloop, ryhthmic isnt it. . . . . I love everyone. Enjoy!.

Bought an old sony walkman from an antique mall. It was advertised as "radio works, but cassette player does not play. " this was true, and i was surprised at the noises it made when you tried to play tapes, though whether or not you have a tape or not it makes these types of noises when you switch it to the metal/chrome setting with dolby b on. You can add a 60 hertz hum if you touch any of the metal parts, and can somewhat mess the sound by messing with the spindles as they move. I may upload some more samples of this at one point, with cleaner recording of each of the sounds you can create.

Originally made for the disquiet junto project 0433: "kit bits: create a kit’s worth of percussion samples. ". I used 1. Recordings with a telephone coil microphone recording sounds from an external blu ray drive and a smartphone (telephone coil recorded via behringer xenyx q1202 usb mixer, line-in) and 2. Random recordings from a soma ether device (recorded with zoom h1n, line-in). In these recordings i picked up those areas which i though to be useful for a drum kit, just as i would do it for myself. This track contains all samples in no special order in one file. All samples my own, released into cc0 public domain. Would be nice to hear if someone does something with it.
