Can ambient music be created by re recording many types the same tape by re passing it through the recording head but with the erase head disabled?
Monitoring is not impossible but it may be difficult.
So why not exploit this difficulty by not monitoring at all.
For example recording the same melody many times. Each take may be completely different in time length, when it begins or ends etc, phrasing etc.
Recording loops of different time lengths Brian Eno style.
Creating random music...
Much like over painting on the same canvas but not looking what is already there.
Of course some rules must exist. For example using the same scale ie the same notes, using a step bass etc, some repeating patterns etc.
Would it be fun?
