[WARNING: Self-promotional blurb follows immediately] Hello people -- Not much I can add to the subject: I have an album available. This is not an "ambient guitar loop" album... but every track contains some Oberheim Echoplex/Lexicon Vortex looping, much of which might even answer to the general term of "ambient." This is not a drum & bass album... but nearly every track is built of off jungle rhythms, and the whole project is informed by the genre's fragmented aesthetic. For those interested, here are some links to sounds which I would recommend especially for this list: http://shoko.calarts.edu/~altruist/Theory1.mp3 This is a "looping solo" -- a straight, live Echoplex bit done in one pass and then placed into the song unedited, brought to you by the functions "Multiply" and "Insert." (The sample is an MP3 download). http://www.listentothis.com/artists/andrelafosse/ramfiles/youcannotcomeback_binarymix.ram This is a non-album downloadable remix of a track from the CD. Aside from the drum programming, *everything* on this is a guitar. I'd particularly point LD readers towards the first EDP loop at the beginning of the tune, and the second one which comes in around 40 seconds in. (The sample is a streaming RealAudio G2 track). http://shoko.calarts.edu/~altruist/Back2.mp3 An Echoplex-derived loop over some rhythmic backing that almost falls into ambient territory...at least until the guitar solo comes in. (This is an MP3 download).
