Bounce Chord’s Modulation Mayhem: Drum Machines Get Twisted

Bounce Chord is back, and this time they’re dragging the Arturia Drumbrute Impact through a gauntlet of bargain modulation pedals. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you shove analog drums through chorus, flanger, tremolo, phaser and a univibe, this is your rave bunker field report. Expect dry wit, hands-on knob-twiddling, and a no-frills approach to pedalboard chaos. The results? Sometimes subtle, sometimes gloriously weird, and always a reminder that gear is meant to be pushed, not pampered. Dive in if you like your beats mangled and your pedals cheap.
