This is brilliant!  Sounds like it's from a classic album...

Cast of Characters:
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth and original seed 
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar, mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– Guitar
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –five-string fretless bass guitar
The Eclectic Collective – composition

 This song began with JJ, as many of our songs do, who composed the outline on the keys, drums, and bass. He then let everyone else in on it immediately. Ken was first up to bat by laying his always cunning drums in there. After he had a beat to work with, Josh used his tree trunk of a five-string fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, Tez and Stephen both laid their magical guitars in there. Once we had it all in the can, Stephen used his powers of production to give us a great mix.
  This one came together relatively quickly, which is a good sign that we're all enthusiastic about what we're creating. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

A new one with the new guild electric! I recorded two different guitar parts on this. both are a combination of rhythm and lead lines. My Signal Chain is the same, except one guitar part is recorded with a bassier tone- running classic fuzz into dual OD into tremolo and delay. This is a blues kinda jam Ive been working with for awhile. It has a section where the beat breaks down in the middle and the mono synth creeps in -that I just love. To make this first I created a drum beat on my drum synth, then I made an analog synth bass line, I did all of this live while playing guitar and recording the first track. The second track is all guitar fills. A third track added here for atmospheric synth sounds.  Once again Soundcloud is compressing this file into trash but I did my best to get a clear loud version. They should really do something about the upload quality. As usual best enjoyed in stereo sound or with headphones.
