Ambient/Drone/Whatever looper noodling ON VIDEO!

So about once a week i spend 15 odd minutes making sounds with the looper in guitar rig. This week I decided to record it, everything you're hearing is either my guitar or mic straight into guitar rig, with the start/stop record button on the looper mapped to my spacebar.

I make retarded faces when I's singing.

Unfortunately it's just too long for youtube and I can't really cut it down any more so it's on viddler instead.

I think for 'spectacular' we'd need a dance routine.

Having said that, I couldn't have achieved one tiny part of that without falling off my chair or forgetting what I'm doing.

pfft s'easy.
tune to open d and open up about six different delays. done.

cheers for the kind words though.

i really wish i had an electric earlier so i could have given you something better to work with on the doom comp ends but inspiration just didn't strike me.

What you gave me rocked, if anything I'm the one that wrecked that with lack of inspiration. I tried and tried but couldn't come up with a singing melody... so I just talked my way through it.

Are you kidding, I say it at least once a week. How do you think my post count got so high.

i'm trying to keep up but jesus christ where do they all come from.

i do alot of typing out posts and then bailing on them which is probably why it feels like i post more than i do. about 1/3 of my posts never make it past the submit button.
not that there's any sort of quality filter in place, clearly. i just leave the post for a minute then read it again and think "nah".

I do the same thing... can you imagine how many posts I'd have if I just went robroe style and didn't "self edit". Mike would be in second by now.

the thing that annoys me is that i never do it with the retarded one word replies.

also my spacebar is fucked up and typing is a bastard.

IT's usually my aug'ier moments that get binned. which seem to happen a sadly surprising amount.
