And this

This time i added some distortion to the effects chain but was really careful to control the feedback. Plus some out of the box guitar techniques (i don’t think i touched the strings once with my right hand!) and i ended up with this. Am excited about how much of a full-bodied, and atmospheric sound it created with just one guitar and one overdub. It also feels alive unlike so many synth patches. The studio is in bloom!

I have recently bought a gorgeous stereo tape delay pedal which along with a trusty Volume pedal and a bit of Tremelo seems to make some gorgeous soundscapes. I thought I’d share the process and some of the results here. I’m consistently in awe of the range of sounds one can get from the electric guitar coupled with well made effects pedals. To my mind, this sequence would stand alone as a lovely backdrop to visuals…
