SB Mix-O-Matic app for iPhone and iPad

The ShowBand Mix-O-Matic App takes short musical loops and lets the user remix them in any way they wish within the app. Selecting up to 8 loops or instruments to be played at the same time. The interface and look of the App mimics they type of mixing desk you may have found in a 1960s recording studio. What makes this App special is that the musical loops are edited from a re-recorded version of the 1963 Māori Showband song “Poi Poi Twist” By Rim .D Paul and the Quin Tikis. The rest of the loops are in modern styles. There’s no predetermined way the loops can be put together so in that sense the user is creating a unique piece of music. It’s a way of introducing users to New Zealand Māori Music history in a fun and exciting way.
