The Train (3.87 MB)
- This is a solo guitar piece I play where I use some of the rhythms of a train,
speeding up with each repetition until it "crashes". It's a good example of just
how percussive an electric guitar can be. The piezo and magnetic pickups are panned away
from each other and it makes an interesting example of the different things each picks up.
The Madding Crowd (1.59
MB) - Playing around, mimicing "playing off" a digital delay by
using two guitar takes. The nasty, distorted solo at the end shows how a through-neck
guitar and distortion can make harmonics stand out. All synth done on the guitar too!
