Open Reel Ensemble is a Japanese magneticpunk band, formed in 2009. Open Reel Ensemble is pioneering a new genre called magneticpunk. Open Reel Ensemble doesn't play conventional instruments, like guitars, drums and keyboards. Instead, the Japanese band uses reel-to-reel tape recorders built by Pioneer and TEAC in the 1970s and '80s.

They weren't designed, of course, with musical creation and manipulation in mind. Over the years, the group has developed new techniques. As Motherboard explains, each member can now "program" sounds directly on to the recorders, creating a strange blend of digital and analog technology. With multi-track recorders, Open Reel Ensemble is able to switch individual tracks on and off, too.
