Into space

Few days ago, I bought a T-Rex Bass Juice (bass distortion), and a Morley Little Alligator volume pedal.
The Morley choice was due to its optical technology which prevent from cracks from regular pot volume pedals.
I bought it because my regular volume pedal (George Dennis) was cracking.
For helping me with ambiance during the recording, I used my BOSS DD-20 Giga Delay, but the actual delay that you can hear is the Analog Delay VST plugin from MDSP at mdsp.smartelectronix.com/classic (and also the round-pan).
I recorded four loop drones today, and especially one improvized with 2001 Space Odissey chapter 29 in background, so you can listen to the track almost in sync with chapter 29 of 2001.

WEEK 2: Eric [contributor]

Tempo is 80BPM
Samples are not top high quality (I still have to work this out ;-)

DAY 30 : Eric

Tempo : unknown
Color : neon red

Loose improvizations. I apologize for the false notes and the bad sound. It was taken with my Olympus voice recorder, it seems that I put it too close to the amp speaker.
It seems that Sonic and I both have the envy of taking the axe ;-)

Anyway I like this kind of bad sound sometimes...

DAY 20 : Eric

J'ai besoin de rêves.
Between sweet warm and fresh cold.
I need to make dreams.


A simple tune made with only my guitar, an automatic volume pedal (the SV2, since my regular volume pedal seems to now make cracks :-( I should buy an optical one), and delay on FL-Studio, and then just few cuts on the track.
Using an A/B box is quite useful for me : I can rehearse/preview the notes on another amp (for instance my bass amp (yes !)) while the loop/drone is running, so I didn't make false notes ;-)

Day 3 : Eric

Springarden



Color : green
Tempo : 120

In the garden, layed down on grass, with fresh air. As simple as it could seems it's not a feeling so much expressed in music.

For this tune, I just use my guitar plugged into the PC thru my old FOSTEX analog mixer and recorded and looped with Ambiloop (wonderful looper, controllable by MIDI, and freeware !). Then I mixed on FL-Studio "live" with knobs.
