TAPED: Cassette Kalimba for Ableton Live

Charming Noise KLANG love tape sounds. So the TAPED collection of instruments are all about the inspiring potential of the nostalgic feelings around tape. Listening to radioplays before sleeping as a child, recording demo tracks on a four track. Bringing back the warmness and imperfection with saturation, wow & flutter by playing instruments through all kind of tape gear and experimenting with it. TAPED is a nostalgic journey emphasizing the beauty of imperfection. The KLANG team noticed that this old cassette radio laying around in the corner of their studio had a recording function. With no time to waste, they fed it with a kalimba and a xylophone to offer a mix between wood and metal. Completed with a decay layer KLANG got the warm percussive tape sounds they aimed for.
