Max Marco shared this track breakdown of the track Perspectives, embedded below, exploring re-sequencing loops with the Elektron Octatrack:

“This track breakdown is primarily a look at one of my favorite sample manipulation techniques, as well as how scenes can be exploited to produce significant variation of simple patterns. ‘Perspectives’ – was done using only a single 16-step pattern without independent track lengths or scaling, and most of the variation is produced through modulating the playback characteristics of the samples in tandem with the audio processing.”
