Ambient Loop

Here's a short ambient loop I made. It starts off in a descending pattern then it goes to 1/2 time which makes it feel very dark. When the 1/2 time is reversed it ascends giving a little feeling of hope at the end. It's cool. I dig it. 

Jupiter

(from the CD Stick Street 2)
I played this piece on the Chapman Stick Guitar SG-12 and you can really hear how lovely the Wenge wood is colouring the tone. It took a year of daily playing to get the Wenge into what it sounds like in this recording. A luthier once told me that all good tonewoods do this from being exposed to the vibrations that come from playing the instrument. I also heard about a violin maker that use to put new built instruments in front of loud speakers for a week to achieve the same tonality, sparing  musicians the need to first play it for a year before the magic unfolds.  Anyway, if a Stick gets this good in just one year of playing I can imagine why those old Stradivarius instruments, from around the year 1700, are so expensive today. :-)

In total I have now recorded thirteen tracks for the upcoming "Stick Street #2" CD and that should do well. So no more Stick recordings for a while now.

A little something I put together with my looper in the studio for the Holidays. One take. Hope you enjoy!

This is both a statement about what currently pisses me off, and a statement regarding the use of fuzz boxes. The former feeding the later.

Ceci est deux déclarations. L'une sur ce qui me gonfle actuellement, et l'autre sur l'usage des fuzz. L'une nourrissant l'autre.
