I'm starting to discover some of the bits I played over the course of the last year during snippets of time stolen from life's demands Prominent among the current tools are a pair of Montreal Assembly Count to 5s, Eventide H9, Pigtronix Infinity Looper, Echolution, EH Superego, Stymon Timeline, King of Tone and others on the pedalboard. Alchemy, Iris, Falcon and a host of UVI & Arturia keyboard tones abound usually with the aid of an instance of Augustus Loop. All of these pieces are live to 2track improvisations with no overdubs or mixing after they were played. I owe much to the stellar programming of Simon Stockhausen!

Ambient 2018-2019

Forest Of The Bells For Daved

Alien Birds

Crow Rock

Early morning meditation on the wonder of the lover returned to my life after decades apart... another live to 2 track ambient guitar performance from Squidwerks HQ.

The Blue Of Her Eyes

Sorting through many hours of playing stolen in the cracks of an extraordinarily busy winter and spring, many of these pieces were gifts of the wee small hours. Absolutely loving new plugins from Acustica Audio! This features their Fairchild 670 and Manley Massive Passive incarnations and they have stunning depth and tone. CPU hogs to be sure but fantastic new tools!

Ghost Temple

Another in this years series of live to two track pedalboard adventures

Surrender

Squidwerks aka Greg Heimbecker is a Northern Colorado based recording engineer, sometimes saxophonist & longtime fan of music across many genres. I have a particular soft spot for ambient music in the tradition of the "great bald one" Brian Eno. As my SoundCloud develops there will be collections of my engineering efforts as well as a section of ambient music composed and performed by myself and a few of my close friends over the past 30 years or so...(be sure to check out https://soundcloud.com/nine-horse-johnson!) enjoy!
