this is sweet, can't be bothered to use line in? just put the mic up to the speaker nice.

also never realized how HUGE the drum trax really is

[alexriesenbeck]

@Grenozh thanks, yeah that drumtrax is a beast! theres almost nothing inside, next to a few chips and an inscribed "May Peace Prevail On Earth"

What a fantastic video and i love your creative use of those fantastic boards man, thanks so much for sharing. I'm building up a small colleciotn of these fantastic little baords. I've also got some pro kit, but I just love messing around with these boards they are so much musical fun! This video is one of hte best I've seen here, keep up the great work. Inspiring stuff man!

[alexriesenbeck]

@SavannaSteel2008 keep collecting, and im glad you have fun with them. rock on!

[tcw00]

Wow this is Sweet!

[alexriesenbeck]

@tcw00 I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did haha thanks

[tcw00]

@alexriesenbeck I sure did. I think its cool how you have it hooked it up like that

[Chewy7771]

Hey alex this is awesome dude. Very inspiring.

How long did it take you to acquire all those boards?

Any tips on getting them on the cheap?

Keep doing what you do man ;)

[alexriesenbeck]

@Chewy7771 Thanks for watching! Most of these boards I have collected in the past year or two, a few i've had since i was a small boy.

I usually get them on eBay, most times they are listed wrong, and I snag them for cheap.. Flea markets are great, as are thrift stores and yard sales. My best most inexpensive finds have been at local yard sales.

Best of luck with your collection, I'm always interested in what others have in their arsenal. Keep an eye/ear out for new Riddam Krater (casio) vids

[mypoopfloats]

very nice. i can grab an sk60 from our weekend flea mkt for prolly $40-50. anyone have an opinion wther its worth it? dont NEED it, kinda want it, but might just flip it on the ebay

[alexriesenbeck]

@mypoopfloats I paid $30 for both of mine on eBay.. if it's in good condition with a battery door, might be worth $50+.. i've seen them go as high as $110..

[nn8nn]

nice collection !..

[alexriesenbeck]

thanks a lot :)

it has grown quite a bit since this video,

now too many haha

[nn8nn]

@alexriesenbeck getting more gear is never enough..haha..i can admitto that too..hahahaha

[thekidclassic]

hey.. how much for that realistic rap master?

[alexriesenbeck]

got that from a Goodwill for $5

picked up a Casio Rapman for $35 recently on eBay

[uptownerful]

ummm, hmmmm i like what you did here. yes... the low fi is artistic.... hmmm... yes... ...i think i just farted.

[alexriesenbeck]

stinky smells.. did someone open a cold draft in here? WAYLON!

[Carlo1Brito]

I wish I had all your keyboards.

[alexriesenbeck]

its an addiction. just built a DOS music workstation for 8-bit sampling for my babies. 1990s all over again

[ventouse]

love it :)

i like how it constructs itself. Looks like alive music by itself.

[alexriesenbeck]

Glad you liked it

[tonvibration]

like it!

catchy melody!

but what a pitty, that the recording is so lofi. guess thats because of the method - sampling with a micro and layering. and yeah, you can take is as arty, but i would really appreciate a recording with more heigth (is that the rigth word?)

Great music anyway!

[alexriesenbeck]

Thank you :)

The life of these Casios & Yamahas is very much Lo-Fi.

Since you liked it, I will re-record/remix it on my PC. It will be different but (maybe) better?!

Thanks!

[strutbone]

Impressive arsenal of Casio's!! SSSSweeeeetttt!

That was"cool and trippy"; as hell!!--Good Work Alex :-)

[alexriesenbeck]

[jcobra]

[alexriesenbeck]

thanks, just playin around
