This is an improvised DJ/live set using only the Elektron Octatrack, Machinedrum and Monomachine. Everything is done live. No additional effects or mixers were used.

The Octatrack plays back time stretched loops and samples. At the same time it sends out MIDI clock to the Machinedrum and the Monomachine. The audio outputs from these two units are connected to the two input pairs of the Octatrack. This makes the Octatrack function as a powerful mixer and effects unit in addition to being a sound source.
