Title: Good Vibrations - what's that sound? Post by: harrisonjon on November 17, 2011, 01:39:37 PM Starting at 1:52 and intensifying after 2:03; presumably theremin but it sounds like a comb being vibrated very rapidly. An amazingly terrifying sound in another context. I've never heard it that clearly before. It's like the outro sound but a lower, pitch and thicker harmony.
Has it been isolated on any of the tracking sessions (I don't have the 5 CD set)? [That theremin sound also recalls Star Trek/Gene Rodenberry] Title: Re: Good Vibrations - what's that sound?
