    Very impressive! Are you Perth based? I spent my teens there and played my very first gig at The Grill in Perth. :)
    Cheers! I live in Perth, from Glasgow. My son goes to The Grill on occasion. 'nuff said

    Friday evenings is always about beer and loud music. Them's the rules round these parts... I could post this elsewhere as a demo video for a Helix FX, Avalanche Run or Mojo pickups, but really none of that matters... It's beer and loud music.

    PS: This is not Scrambler. This is how I play in my other band (which is centered on beer and loud music).

    This is an old tune. Wish I could remember how I made these sounds. Possibly a lot of Rat involved.

    Loved both of these dude, particularly the last minute of Gasket - that lo-fi feedback was lovely. If ever you find yourself in South East Wales, we should jam.

    @joetele

    Current board

    But my board when these tunes were done wouldn't have had an HX FX. Probably something more like this

    https://photos.app.goo.gl/rtksfywc7ZQrXr2s9

    Basically a bunch of dirt pedals (Muff, Ratt, OCD in there) plus basic reverb and delay. Back then it was the Avalanche Run and Obscura, before that I had a Cathedral and Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai. That's about it - I've never had anything too outlandish.

    I quite like the current board - that Plumes is stunning. Got one last month and on the VERY limited time I've had to play with it, it's wonderful. Favourite overdrive very quickly. 

    A lot of time for the Carcosa too, would happily buy one if I saw it come up for arounf £50.

    And I've always wanted an Avalanche Run....

    Yeah, the Plumes sounds good. I was looking for something to sit as 2nd gain stage on top of the HX FX Timmy patch, then use the Carcosa or Black Secret for the really heavy stuff. Fits the bill nicely - loads of dynamic options.

    I was in a band called Dutch Alps. We did instrumentals. This was an idea I had for that band, however we never got round to playing it. I think it's a shame that no-one has heard it.

    Another Dutch Alps tune (that never got played by Dutch Alps). I share this one because it has the most obvious use of the EQD AR.

    This one's extra good. Love the bookend of quiet drums and guitars (and the middle bit too)

    What horn plugin did you use on some of the older tracks you posted? Would love to get some baritone brass stuff

    The trumpets in Eyeless were done using a VST called sforzando. It's free.

    I play trombone in a brass band, so I had a tenuous plan to extend the arrangement and record with some of the band. Think the moment might've passed now. Maybe one day.

    Ewan your music is superb. The kind of stuff I dream about making but am far too talentless and unmotivated to do do!

    I am talentless and unmotivated but I've got pedals, guitars and the will to make noise, and a drummer. First few practices were slow going but now we're absolutely loving the noise we make. Worth just going somewhere to practice and jam out ideas. Nothing else to distract you in a practice room.

    Thanks very much! The motivation is key - lots of effort, lots of absolute garbage and the occasional result that is not an embarrassment! Talent has very little to do with it!

    Still here (occasionally). This is one of my Friday evening happy accidents where I picked up a guitar after beer and (I think) found a tune. I've been working on it on and off since, and it's been a challenging bugger - it just doesn't know what it wants to be. Maybe just leave it be as it is....

    Another Friday evening tune that never came to anything. This one was based on the idea of just walking away and never stopping. Tempting concept during lockdown....

    Absolutely leave it as is, dude. It's beautiful. I can imagine playing some shimmery, ethereal stuff on top using my pedals too

    Thanks Joe! Think I'm coming to same conclusion. Just need to get it recorded properly and I've an idea for an ending. Was thinking about crescendos and things, but I think this works because it doesn't build. Just meanders, explodes briefly then meanders again.

    Just listened back to your links again on page 1. Still damn good ! I've been recording a bunch of songs, 4, in a studio near me, mainly me and guitar, and looking to get them mixed before mastering etc!! Nixer?
