live recorded ambient guitar song, no overdubs.

this song is a part of my live guitar songs collection called 'soil'.
have a look at the other 'soil' videos here: http://bit.ly/16GdzEV


some "technical" infos about the song:

This is the first recording with the Strymon BigSky. it easily replaces the BlueSky and the Neunaber Stereo Wet... although i was happy with these two guys i´m blown away by the possibilities and the capability of the BigSky (which forces me again to limit myself to only the 3 or 4 sounds i really use...)

Towards the end of the song i switch from the guitar signal to the 'Korg Monotron Delay' via the 'Little Lehle' switcher. i drive the signal through my guitar board. i love this little toy box!! it´s amazing how organic it sounds! ever since i can think i was in search of exactly that kind of sound. years ago i bought a '79 built Korg MS-20 modular synth. with the filters and some cables it was possible to get this kind of weird self-oscillating sounds. but the ms-20 is nothing that fits on a guitar pedal-board. well spent 40 bucks...

The 'Bassdrum' sound is produced by the guitar (hit on dampened strings) recorded into the boomerang as master-track.

i know there is a guitar by yamaha which is named 'pacifica'. the song has nothing to do with this guitar. i rely on my good ol' telecaster...
