JellyMix

This is an interactive music video mixing pad. JellyMix is Musicjelly's downloadable player. Inside you'll find three sets of palettes of loops.

Play with audio-visual loops of the original recordings of musicians, dancers, vocalists, beatboxers and other sound-making artists. Mix them to create different compositions and discover characters, locations, instruments, talents and further info. And to create the perfect mix you can modulate their individual volumes and panning.

Following the release of our previous interactive music video app "The New Machine EP" for the band The Nyco Project , Musicjelly presents a new experience based on the same concept "everything you hear you see". This time it's loop based, and includes the Barbican group of drummers Drum Heads amongst many other artists we found around the city and beyond. We captured their separate drum sections so that you can mix them in your own way.

All loops have been filmed over time by Musicjelly - we ask artists to improvise over the same key and tempo, and put them together online, in installations and as mobile apps like this one and have just released a recorder for mobile devices. Download it to send us your loops.

We're constantly evolving and would love to hear what you think is great and what you think could be better.



Instructions:

S = "solo" - select and isolate the sound of the loop you tap on
V = "volume" - select and drag up & down on the loop you want to modulate.
B = "balance" - select this function to adapt each loop's left/right panning
I = "info" - select this function to explore further info about each artist or recording session

Swipe from the corner of the screen to access a new palette

If you get lost, tap on "guide me"

Enjoy!
