Hmm, I didn't think about that...

Well the point is: YOU CAN GET THAT TONE WITH REVERSE DELAY!

Yes, but who on this god forsaken planet can I blame for their inexplicable popularity?

Yeah, that was him. But on the subject of Aen, which we weren't, I want to know how to get the sound in Aen's piece The Metallurgist from Alone in the Dark. Because I haven't succeeded and admit defeat

There are synth pads everywhere in Blonde Redhead's albums so....
I thinks there are some modulated reverb or delay on guitar here and there though...

love her voice

and those legs of course


hazelwould wrote:Any ideas on how Nels Cline gets his tone on Draw Breath "Attempted"? It's just the main guitar part. Kind of a warm throaty, woody type of tone. I'm assuming it's a klon set to slightly dirty.

Also, on Blonde Redhead "Dr. Strangelove" the main rhythm part has this sorta MBV reverse thing going on. Is that just a reverse reverb?

Ah yes. Coxon did fancy some rack gear.
But reversed tracks are all over Leisure. I bet he had to use reverse reverb live though.

:omg:

Weave a spoon or knife through the guitar strings close to a fret. Under the E, Over the A, under the D, and so on. Flap it like a ruler on the desk, add long delay, in the case of metallurgist It was a Deluxe Memory Man. I was tuned to an open chord so it sounds nice.
