Just guitar and pedals. That´s it!
After doing 2 albums
with multi track recordings, the usual track on track thing,
I was a bit fed up with this way of
recording.
I´m excited always when it´s new but loose interest
in
the recording situation while puzzling together all
the tracks.
So I recorded some songs just in stereo, no
overdubs,
which was more fun and spontaneous. A few hours
work and the full
album was ready: "Guitar Looping # 1"
You can listen to 2 pieces (a cover version of
Kraftwerk´s AUTOBAHN and BAKTU) on
Nice Day!

hahaha :) the first time that my music was compared with the beatles. is
that good or bad? :)
well, i do not think that he has any clue about live electronics,
electroacoustic music and such. well in any case, this will be a great pr for
the album.
one note guys : i am working on a new electric guitar and electronics
album which will be released soon. just hardware fx and analog pedals. hope
you will enjoy that one.
best regards to you all.

Congrats
Erdem,
the reviewer thought yours was the best piece on the album.
I
don't remember exactly what he says but he
mentioned psychedelia and Dear
Prudence by the Beatles in relation to it.
Helpfully he mentions that the
piece was recorded in real time with fx.
(was it? the Wire usually
gets that sort of info wrong :-)
Generally he seemed not overly
impressed by the album,
even being critical of Keith Rowe.
Probably
trying to be controversial, that's good as it
may create more of a buzz
about the album, I wouldn't
even be surprised if they're deliberately
doing that to
help promotion, as there's bound to be people writing
in
to disagree.
It's certainly a big spread in a mag that normally
gives
a couple of column inches to new
releases.
