MINIPOPS SNACKS FROM MARS

The Classic Rhythm Box: Twisted & Mangled Through FX & Tape

What happens when you combine the Minipops SR-120 analog drum machine with an H3000, Space Echo, and tape machine? We aren’t entirely sure either... but it sounds otherworldly!


Released in 1976, the Minipops has a wonderfully analog sound, and sports a bigger kick drum than any other rhythm box we’ve heard (and we’ve heard quite a few).
 
Getting Weird With it

We wanted to bring the Minipops into the future, so we pumped it through a variation of truly unhinged pitching, delays, and modulation effects on our H3000 and printed it to tape, re-pitching the results for deeper kicks, slo-mo beats and frantic grooves:



These samples are nothing like what you’d expect from an early rhythm box. The drums drip, stretch and blast out of your speakers like some strange creature from a B-movie! 


Along with 64 loops created with this monstrous chain, we meticulously isolated the best one shots to make 5 16x hit kits - including a clean kit along with the processed, so you can still experience that original Minipops goodness! Or you can just keep it weird:
