Acoustic Cover Challenge
It's finally here. I've been working on this for a while, and although there are a few features I am still developing (with a vies of making them available to everyone down the track), my new website for my personal music projects is up and running.
The ACC is the part of this site where you guys and gals are in control.You pick the songs, I record them acoustically and share them here for your pleasure. It will just be audio to start with until I get the hang of recording the video and audio at the same time.
How does it work?
When I announce I'm taking requests, you reply to the post. Then I pick my favourites from the suggestions and make a shortlist. This then gets turned into a poll and you vote on it. The winning song gets recorded. Hopefull there will be a new song every fortnight.
Why are you doing it?
I'm trying to piece together a set list for solo gigs, and I need some help choosing songs. What better way to find songs that people like then to get them to request the songs here.
So head on over to the site, leave a suggestion, sign up to the newsletter and lets get this ball rolling.
Ahh... Marshall. Although my love of amps is constantly evolving and going through phases, i always come back to Marshall. To my ears, they have just the right amount of clarity, the right amount of dirt, the right amount frequency spread.... I just love them. I may have flirted with Orange, followed ZZ Top with Crate, dabbled with Vox, but my heart lies with Marshall.
To those reading on the RSS feed, sorry for those last 10 posts. I was trying a little experiment and it has not worked. If you follow those entires you'll end up at a 404 on the website. Again, sorry about that, it should be fixed for the future (I hope).
GuitarMX and a few other sites have had this video up. It is amazing. Even though to me the playing is completely souless, you have to give credit for the technical prowess. in this video the player looks like he is in fast forward.
I saw this over at GearTrap, one of my new favourite sites. This is a very nice sounding fuzz pedal. I've always associated fuzz pedals with over the top crazy tone, but this does some beautiful lower gain tones as well.
