Thanks Title: Re: Newbie here Post by: Mahalo on March 13, 2008, 11:55:40 PM Noble Sterling is pretty wild.......reminds me of Syd Barret's solo stuff.....Noble Sterling is kind of refreshing, in a sense
I see that your Uncle is the best guitar player this side of the Solar System....but can he play Solar System....chords and melody at the same time? (without vocals) ? All Aboard the HMS Gaston is strange....how did you get those effects?? What's it about? Most of the stuff with Vox reminds me very much of Syd Barrett, hate to use a comparison as strong as his....but it is definitely unique....keeep up the good work.

HMS Gaston is pretty weird, the water effects I got with shaking around bottles of water and cartons of orange juice, mixed on top of crappo wave sounds from my keyboard. The really weird sound in the intro comes from turning the reverb all the way up on my 450 Watt, fender stage amp and slapping the top of it really hard (which I really, really regret doing... but it sounds cool). The song went thru different stages lyrically, but eventually it ended up being about some fantastical sea voyage where the ship eventually sinks and the captain gets upset.

I can get the Nilsson influence in your music quite a lot, its quite indebted to a lot of jazzy influences too, my favourite was 'All the gold in San Francisco' -cool! |
