Yup. Don't suppose we'll ever see a fourth album though...

Just realised why I’ve had Roads stuck in my head for the last few hours

I have no idea tbh. It's been yonks since their third so I presumed they don't write new stuff.

And I've now finally managed to midi sync everything in the room. 7 synths all in unison!
Just need a deck of cards now

A random mish mash of 3 moogs semi modular, moog matriarch, novation bass station 2, behringer deepmind (Yes EmarkM, I'm still using this!) And a beat buddy pedal. drive.google.com/file/d/1AwLRbjgGrgSmKBk8bwVvtdtTo9v90PNf/view?usp=drivesdkIt's just lovely to have them all in sync. So much fun to wander to each one with a smoke and a beer in your hands just tweaking here and there. I'm starting to understand how they recorded all those ambient prog songs in the 70s now  |

Cheers. It's not even difficult- you just visit each one, get it so you like it (probably the hardest or most time consuming bit), then turn all the volume down on everything except the one thing you want to start it with, click record in ableton and then just slowly bring things in with their respective volume. And then once its going, you just do the really technical bit where you fiddle with knobs and piss about. Et voila.

Cheers. That's the moogs giving you that cool vibe I should have brought the drums back in after taking them out thinking about it, but it's just so much fun to get everything going, you just sit there like a Cheshire cat Going to think what would work as an arrangement and take it from there. Onwards! |

FINALLY!  Now, guess what I cannot for the life of me find? Sort of essential for connecting a guitar to amplification? Sigh. I had it. I put it somewhere safe. I don't remember where and I've looked *everywhere*. It's gone. There's a music shop in walking distance, thankfully. |

Just waiting for the weather to warm up enough to spray nitro, but all the stuff for project 62 strat is here. I can make a start on aging the metal and plastics in the meantime, sort the frets out and stuff  |

Yeah the lead guitarist is due back from long-term sick in a week or so, so we'll be a four-piece for the first time ever! We seem to be just adding new songs rather than perfecting the ones we have, and still no sign of any gigs or anything, but it's all still good fun and my playing is coming on loads. We really need a second vocalist for some harmonies, but I'm fucked if I'm volunteering for that  |

If a gig ever appears on the horizon it's better to have a load to choose from and then you can set about polishing them. So long as you're enjoying it and you're doing it and yeah, it's the best way to keep improving, playing with others. |

Be good to see that finished strat.
Katana amp looks awesome
And Monkman is now a groovy bass player!

So, that amp is *fucking amazing*!
Things have come on a long way since I last played electric guitar.
All this Neil Young talk inspired me to try My My, Hey Hey with the amp set to "Brown" (and headphones, because I'd prefer not to be stabbed repeatedly) and it sounds fantastic, even with my playing.
I think it might see quite a bit of usage.

I will dammit. Meantime we've decided on 5 to do first so just need to try and sing and play at the same time, which I'm rusty as hell at, but it's coming together.
The good thing with recording nearly 100 tunes over the last few years means we've got a selection to choose from and get going with...

I'm off work now for a while so I might have a bit of a tinker with some tunes. See how band practice goes later tonight.
Everyone's gone music mad. I like it when the creative burst hits. Sounds like you lot have it too

Christ, the moogs are something else. I was pissing about trying to get something *really* mellow, and came up with this. You could literally spend your whole life on these things linky |
