A Thousand E Miners

mmi

An experiment that became a meditation.

Two tracks. One guitar, one looper, one e-bow, two tracks and a touch of Live’s Overdrive effect on the second e-bow track.

The starting premise was could I get the sound of many guitars by continually playing into Live’s Looper effect. I jammed in e-minor into it for close to an hour to the point. This could not be reproduced exactly if I tried (which is also kind of the point).
I then added a second track of me e-bowing on the B string in a single take and this is what I ended up with.

I’m quite pleased with the result, hope you like it too.
