Sounds good - I like it. This is TGP though - you simply can't be ambient/textural without a pic of your pedalboard :D

Cool, man, (spinning right now)

If you're into ambient guitar there's a few of us hanging out at:

The remnants of the mighty Kronosonic movement. Pity the poor Kronosonic.

Definetely more guitaristic than most ambient stuff - it's cool though. I'm grinding thru my day gig here and it is just what the doctor ordered - nice and mellow and suitably unobtrusive.

This is getting weird. The constant "Hey, look at me!" posts are really off-putting for me. I understand you want to promote yourself but this is The Gear Page, not The Promote Yourself Page. I think we all appreciate a little self-promotion from the artists here but I get squeamish when it's this much this quickly. It could just be my opinion though and that's fine.

sorry you feel that way! alot of people are enjoying the music! as long as people liek it i will put it out there! im not trying to be annoying about ti just share my music with people because i think its good!

Hey, look at me. :banana ;-)

There are some ambient elements in this piece I did for ASB (the guy who posted in this here thread)

http://www.reverbnation.com/artist/song_details/9650361

Actually, I've done a lot of pure ambient and noise stuff in the past but none of it is online at the present. I usually try to sneak that stuff into any kind of instrumental I do.

Anyway, congrats on the sound....and congrats for being productive (hey, it's Gear Page, where the End is the Means to the End) LOL

cut him some slack, it is the Gear Page but he's actually in the right place....

Please post gear demos in the appropriate section, and keep this section about songs and performance.

Thanks!!

Welcome to discuss your gear, but if the gear is the focus of the thread, please post in the demo area.

Shit, I forgot that we sycophantically post about how great our pedalboards, amps, and guitars are for strangers' approval.

It's a forum...

You posted in the ambient thread, which is pretty heavily visited on here. I suggest looking there and posting there, since it'll get you plenty of focus. Not a lot of us check this section of the forum frequently.

I mainly use the Shiva Clean, the Deluxe Reverb, Vox AC30 or the Twin Reverb models. Sounds fantastic. Here's a little example:

The 4th track sounds promising but they don't sound amorphous enough to me to be 'ambient' nor structured enough to be conventional.

You might want to check Eivind Aarset, Tonbruket, Bugge Wesseltoft and Nik Bartsch's stuff. All a bit Scandinavian doomy but interesting ideas for looser structures.

ya i have my own little style! truthfully all of those songs i did for fun improve except for the main backtracks all the lead parts i just did and i liked em so saved em put em on there to show friends next thing you know people loved it! so i started making more now im in studio doing a album! hey guys is there actually any money in ambient music
