Atomic Ants Don’t Surf

This one features a 2011 Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster (doubled except during solos). It was played through a Fender Mustang III modeling amp set for a Fender ’65 Deluxe amp with a ’63 spring reverb and a pitch shifter effect that made it sound like a 12-string. A 2012 Rickenbacker 4003 was used on the bass track. A BeatBuddy was used for the drums.

Hippie Contingency

I did some more work on the levels of this song, which means I had to access the raw tracks on the TASCAM Model 12’s SD card. For some strange reason, the “flute” track was way off, so I was not able to use the performance videos. Well, I could have, but it would have meant starting the video editing over from scratch, which I was not willing to do since the files had already been chopped into lots of little clips. Anyhow, I thought I’d use some stormy-type videos to go with the wind sound. I also shortened the song from over 6 minutes down to about 4 minutes.

All sounds were created with analog synths. See my other videos if you want to know how I get flute sounds out of a little Moog Mavis module.
