A little suite of loop-based recordings I did after listening to Jonny Greenwood and Buckethead for the best part of a day. Like most of the stuff I upload, these aren't exactly finished (or even that well thought-through) but they might build into something if I can remember how to play them.
The basic concept behind this playlist is a standard exploration story around a deep-sea theme: planning, setting off, initial dive and cool fish and such, then something a little more Lovecraftian. There will probably be at least one more to conclude the story, maybe two, when I get round to trying to figure them out. 
I've titled the tracks after listening back to them, each one a kind of description of what they make me think of in the context of the story.

Descent - The Abyss

The second of two tracks recorded before Russia. As with the other, it's just me, my Squire and the ME-25. Chords figured out beforehand, bass riff and lead improvised whilst recording.

Waiting for a Miracle

Artificer

Homage to Jai Paul:

Tenor sax, alto sax, voice and RC300 loop station. Edited a little afterwards with NCH Mixpad and Wavepad to get the fades in/out and the weird blurp thing at 4:12.
Hopefully re-recording to get the levels a bit smoother and add in some new bits (as soon as I figure out how to do them with a saxophone)

BTSTU - Jasmine

Filter

Slack - Jawed Jackdaw

Recorded in a cold shed.
Soprano, alto, tenor saxes; RC300 looper; assorted effects and whatnot

Glass Jaw

Buttons

Apparition

DOOM's verses on 'Air' (original beat by Dabrye) over a slowed-down and chopped-up version of 'Crystal' by M O O N (from the Hotline Miami soundtrack). Guest-starring the cast of the 1970s Fantastic Four cartoon.

MF MOON - Air Crystals

Mashup of DOOM's 'Meat Grinder' and Anomalie's 'Le Bleury' (from his 2017 EP). Very little tweaking on my part - I just thought they'd work well together

Le Hachoir

A selection of demos, all (or mostly) improvised. Far from perfect and all in need of a little tweaking but hopefully of some merit to someone, somewhere.
Comments welcome - I like to know how tracks are received and where I can improve stuff.
