BagelとCream Cheese

Loop workshop ver.2. trying to compensate seam in overlap by over dubbing. Phone recording with complimentary 3 running fans worth of white noise.

2 take shoegaze attempt.

Fuck you and your dumbass multiple yet equally shitty interfaces tumblr. I will upload audio files if I want.

The only part I like is around 4:00 when I up the feedback on the delay.

Went to earnestly play guitar but smoked the pots before hand hence this. Tuned to D#GC#FAC guitar volume @ 90% tone @ 0%, shitty bedside amp settings volume @ 100% treble @ 15ish% bass @ 100% then I just spent like 2 hours with my guitar placed in an incredibly awkward position while laying in bed experimenting with thumping and tapping the back of the guitar where the rhythm pick-up is, the neck and neck bolt. (There is clearly no progression here just got stoned and experimented with ambient options that dont require pedals.)

the same melody played different ways (slightly) each as stumble filled as the next

Okay so I have decided to use this blog as a blog (but only for dumping recordings of scratch guitar tracks/ideas) As for info on this one: rec. 20160523 4:20am through headphones plugged through my bedside amp to my phone. Capo5 tuning: E G# B F# A# D#. The idea was to practice a semi structured strumming pattern while intermittently throwing in random hammer on pull off slides using the same structure of the strumming pattern. 100% treble 43%bass in overdrive.

Bullshit track masked by overdrive that I didnt feel like re-recording.

Got an acoustic 12 string strung as a 6. Shitty Carlo Robelli with a falling off headstock. Body is to big, neck is to chunky and wide for my small hands and the action is like half an inch off the fretboard. Good for vibrato practice and it sounds decent and was free so, neat.

hello my friends it’s me

Noodling on a BOSS digital pitch shifter/delay rps-10 I saw sitting in my basement. Do not expect solid playing but I like documentong my ideas for me.

You can pull nails, but a hole is made, and for every hole a haunt of memory where the voids left too small; a space to slip through my recall. The pieces pulled from my door, soon forget the holes and nails it once bore.

Can we go back to the way it was once? Can we completely mend or go back to once was before I met you? Before I met you? Before I met you? 

You can pull nails, but the holes are made a haunting of memory. If my mother, who always spoke to me in similes; If my father’s hand, and the nails it drove. Can we go back to the way it was once was? Can we completely mend or go back to once was? Can we go back to the way it was once? I’d reclaim all those pieces from the door I held before.. Before I met you. Before I met you. Before I met you. Before I met you…  

I could go into detail as to why the levels in this are the way the are or I could just leave it at I was in a rush to just record a jam. Basically guitar is loud but low in the mix and drums take over guitar nuances. Enjoy✌ @russiancirclejerks on drumbs.

Brainstorming delay tapping. Kinda fucked up how we as humans believe we have some obligation to do population control on bears (and other animals) in order to keep their natural presence away from our unnatural presentation of what we call civilization. “Honey if I don’t shoot the bears our FIAT will be in danger”

Left hand doing open tapping while right hand is flickering the channel changer from treble to rhythm on the guitar to get a spacey spring effect.

Was trying to learn how to automate in Pro tools (originally 320 kbps but had to compress it to upload to this lame platform). I thought the one take scratch track I made sounded pretty good for being complete impromptu BS plugged directly into a shitty board. Also the picture is just added cuz me.
