SONIC Snowflakes/AfterMath/D3



Hello one and all -

Just thought i'd pass along an e-mail I received from a young looper I had
recently sent some of my cd's to and also to hawk the remaining copies I
have of limited edition runs of three of my cd's. Thereafter, I won't be
controlling the price(s).

pedro-
sorry, i was going to respond sooner, but this week has been a
strange one w/ mon off, school starting, office busy etc.
i've listened to all the discs, but not fully in depth, so don't want
to make any critical comments, yet. i thought they all sounded pretty good.
my fave is the "d3", just thought there were some interesting
textures, sounds on that one, sounded like it could have been part of
my loop/ambient collection in the vein of torn/fripp/jon durant etc.
the snowflakes has an interesting drone quality after listening to it
for awhile. it's funny, i got one of robert fripps live looping
disces (one recorded in argintina-can't remember which one...) and i think
your's sounds better than roberts (his recording level is so
low at times it's frustrating)...
and i need to give the disc that was a one take 60 min session more of a
listen.
overall, i thought they were interesting.
my one question: what type of recording gear do you have? i've been
researching different equipment, etc. trying to get a handle on
recording gear (my knowledge/info is lacking in this, since i'm
fairly new at the recording stuff).just curious.....
anyway, thanks for the discs, i've enjoyed them, nice to hear other's
stuff, helps me w/ "journey" i guess......s----
ps---i love that the snowflakes has a #'ed system, like in prints, xx/100.
i've always thoguht that was a great concept for limited ed. runs of stuff
etc.

No computers, samples or otherwise were employed in the construct of any of
these recordings. They were recorded while I played and manipulated various
delay units in real time.

- "SONIC Snowflakes" is a 5 song (58 mins or so) disc recorded at my 
studio.
This recording is guitar only played in real time. No  computers were
utilized for these recordings. There are no synths, drums, bass or any 
other
instrument besides guitar on this recording.

- AfterMath - one track running 60 mins and recorded in one take. A six
stringed instrument was used in this recording, just not in a conventional
manner. Three delay units were utilized in this recording.

-  D3 - 9 songs at 72 mins. This recording is more in
line of what I call "Industrial Snowflakes". Seven of the nine songs are
guitar only, one is bass only and another had me switching between each.
Again and as is my way, no samples or computer generated sounds were
employed. Just me playing and twisting at knobs and such.


Each disc is $10USD I'll cover shipping stateside and will find the 
cheapest
international rates if they apply.  Please contact me off list if you're
interested.

Tap me off list if you're interested. This is still very home grown, so
patience is a plus.
