Exchange

This one came out of some first-thought/best-thought follow-the-vibe playing...but it took quite a while to edit together. Another all-one-guitar piece on the trusty PureSalem Mendiola, no pedals, just straight into the Focusrite. The motif is 14 bars (or 7, if you want to cut the tempo), which is a bit tricky, but I wanted to trust the sense of when to play and when to rest. Ultimately, I think the editing worked, especially the variation on motif lengths.


Sends: one convolution reverb and one Valhalla Supermassive. There's one inline effect rack for compression/eq.


The title comes from the former PA route 454 (now 44), which went through the little down of Exchange, and also the back-and-forth between the parts.

I really enjoy the mellow interplay of the minor chords, like a moment of quiet during the sunset
