1975 Psychiatry Professor DJ Blend

Psychiatry professor in 1975 executes perfect DJ blend on two reel-to-reels and a drum machine turning these knob on this filter down if we get rid of the instruments and you can hear they sound very much like the heartbeat the heart rate of a down to a normal heartbeat which I can do with this device here now suppose we change the rhythm and then bring in this bring back the instruments

A 1975 BBC clip shows a bearded psychiatry professor operating reel-to-reel tape machines, filters, oscillators, and a drum machine. He strips a military march down to low-frequency pulses resembling an excited heartbeat, slows it to a calm pulse, then restores the rhythm and instruments; the joke is that an academic demonstration turns into an unexpectedly impressive DJ performance. The music, throbbing bass, and heartbeat-like sounds make the blend feel both scientifically explained and absurdly dramatic.

There's a military march, a nice stirring tune that makes virtually all of us want to go running to listen to it at a march with the soldiers. And one way of looking at why it might do that to us is by turning these knobs on this filter down. If we get rid of the instruments first and then the higher frequencies of the percussion, we find that we are left with the sound coming through these lower filters. You can hear they sound very much like the heart beat, the heart rate of. A person is rather excited. And that I think is why the military march makes us excited. Now to explain this rather better, we really should take that tempo down to a normal heart beat. Which I can do with this device here. It is possible to reduce that high speed to a lower speed like this. like this, actually going down, down, down. I think that's about it. That's roughly the heart rate of a person who is not excited, who is fairly calm. Now suppose we change the rhythm and then bring in this tape here, and with the filter, bring back what we took out from the march, bring back the high frequencies percussion bring back the instruments and we find that we've got a Sam.
