Nebulous Peril - Monolithic Guide

By george bowles on July 13, 2012 10:46 pm

I haven't done a guitar drone piece since week 1, so it's about time to hear another one. This time I used a bass instead, going through marshall stack with two different types of distortion (one transistor, one tube), as well as through an ampeg with a somewhat rare metal screamer pedal from japan. also, I finally got my analog synth back, the korg poly 800. which is running through a vox amp with a couple different effects channels used, as well as going direct into the board. no overdubs, all in real time. I want to start a new project like this where it's a duo, but the drummer I had found flaked out for unexplained reasons, so I decided to do some heavy drone.

Such a cool bass sound.  I need that growl sound!  Like the fuzz, is that the crazy Japanese pedal?

This is pretty cool. I love the gradual increase in oscillation at the start

That is indeed some heavy drone.  Awwwwweeesome bass sound.  So chunk and rounded.

Drone as fuck, reminds me of Sunn O))).
BWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM BWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWOOOOWOOOOOOOOOOOOM

not sure nwspr, there is a lot of fuzz going on... the one higher pitched one that starts somewhere around 1/3 of the way through is actually fuzz from my vox amp on the synthesizer drone

How do the kids make the rock-on devil-horns emoticon? Because that's what I would leave here if I knew how.
