About
----------------------------------------------
A fan made project that focuses on the revival of Death Grip's Retrograde with some additional functions.
Retrograde is an interactive installation created by Death Grips circa The Money Store. The user is presented with a 'death grid' full of tiny, looping quick shots of the band in performance, which they can activate in any pattern they choose to create their own wall of sound.
All of the individual Retrograde clips can be found on the YouTube channel mercury00retrograde.
Additional Functions----------------------------------------------
You can adjust the volume by holding and dragging your mouse After the clip plays. You will see a red bar increase and decrease based on the volume.
Before the clip plays, holding on the clip will set it to be played in a delayed amount of desired seconds. You can choose to play the Set Clip by pressing it, or pressing Play Set on the right side to play all Set Clips.
Warnings----------------------------------------------
Playing All or Playing more clips than what the Unity Engine likes, will cause an overflow in the AudioSampleProvider, which will start delaying frames and making the application have a seizure.
Questions you might ask----------------------------------------------
Any plans for future updates?
Doubt it, but I'm not opposed to it.
Are all the clips in their original spots?
Kinda... Most of them are, but I know there are some that aren't correct. It was difficult to pinpoint the Blue Clips, and some clip thumbnails didn't seem to show in the Original Retrograde.
There seems to be copies of some clips. Whats the deal?
Oddly enough, there are some clips that are copies. I extracted the clips from the deathgripsarchive, and checked the Mercury Retrograde channel for validation. As for why that is, I'm not too sure.
Why did you do this?
Money Store Retrograde is gone, and can't ever be played. There are no videos, besides forums and talk about it's existence. I was curious what they meant by creating your own sounds with these clips, and decided to work on this project to satisfy that curiosity.
Do the clips connect to each other?
Before I even worked on the project, I tried to connect 1 & 2 together. There doesn't seem to be a correlation.
Any plans for other Death Grip Applications? Maybe. Might do something with Exmilitary
