Spivkurl

Thanks a lot for your time listening to this weirdness. I really wanted to let the creativity go freely on this one, and it was fun. I still want to make some slight modifications though, a few parts don't seem right to me.

Well, glad you could enjoy it my friend.

Nice nice spivkurl ;) thanks for the comment, might surprise you but it is a standard 140 bpm but I made the arpeggio to fit with it, I am very glad you liked it and I really appreciate your comment

Word up, Monsieur Kurl. I just tried looking Amethyst To Turquoise up but mostly found jewellery links. Then I found a Facebook page of some ambient artist with that name so that's go to be it!

Yeah, I guess maybe you're trying to say this sounds a bit like a live band who are playing in front of some ambient bed or vibe. I think I know what you mean. Ozric Tentacles (best space rock band ever) are wonderful at that. Used to have two synth players, one pretty much permanently on atmospheres that the band would play the actual constructed song over (other synth player was guitarist who would come off guitar to do awesome synth solos).

There's not actually much ambient bed stuff here (mostly shimmering stuff in first 2 mins) as guitar, banjo, drums and bass guitar do most of the work.

But, delay helps take the place of ambient pads, which I don't use as much as you might think or expect (I love em but they can take up too much space). Quite often it's just heavily delayed guitar parts. And I do control the feedback on the delay, a bit like in dub.

Yes, around 5:35 is maybe my favourite bit. Bit like simple verse-chorus-verse grunge there (eg Nirvana's Lithium) where you just take the same riff, step on your distortion pedal and the drummer moves to his crash cymbals or open hihat. I like the new guitar parts that it goes into on 6:00 after the drums come back down from those cymbals.

I've got a slightly better version of this which I'm yet to upload. All the same, check the full Soundcloud version as a lot of my favourite stuff happens after about 11 mins.

Thanks again for your thoughts and observations.

thank you spivkurl, early merryxmas to you :)

Thanks Spiv ;)

Thanks for mentioning the beeps :) I got mixed feelings on them, looking back I think I over used them and should of kept them for just before the chorus comes in.
