Merapi

By onezero on April 7, 2024 7:24 pm

Back to the PureSalem in standard tuning, to switch things up a bit. This one started as a more driving piece, but the bits I'd recorded didn't lead to development. A key change and more open strings led to more possibilities, including a fourth channel. No effects this week, though there's the usual convolution reverb and compression/eq on the stereo.

The title is from the asteroid 536 Merapi.

so nice in headphones. i needed that  heart

I like the right balance between “sentimental” and “unsentimental” parts very much.

Just like last week, the natural guitar sound is all this needs. Very pleasant meandering tones. Well executed!

I love the, like emergent complexity as the layers build up through out the track.  Very well mixed too.  Bravo.


like walking into a beautiful open landscape

Very comforting.
