Open Reel Ensemble Performs With Bowed Magnetic Tape
In the video, the Open Reel Ensemble, a Japanese band known for their use of open-reel recordings to create music, performs with bowed audio tape.
This is a trio performance on the “JIGAKKYU,” a traditional folk instrument, made by stretching magnetic tape across bamboo. Tape loops are attached to a bamboo bow, which is used to control how the tape moves through a reel-to-real tape deck.
The track is composed by the Open Reel Ensemble (Ei Wada, Haruka Yoshida and Masaru Yoshida).
