Low Red Moon
ギター弾いてる時だけは、なんか無敵になった気分でさ！！
Noise from the late 2010s on
You asked, we ignored you and did this instead.
In the style of the Music Minus One records for playing along with your own instrument but in this case minus three – drums, bass and guitar. So just augment the backing track with anything you like.
Here’s the original.
Listener compatibility guide: The number of guitar feedback tracks in this recording is into double figures.
I remodeled an old ditty from 2015.
The noise at the end is me dropping a guitar onto my big toe. Being professional I suffered for my art and waited for the sound to die out before emitting an expletive.
The return on the Digi-Gurdy, this time using its internal sounds, and transposed to match the BEBEBE tuning of the Revelation JRT Marrakesh with its extra quarter tone frets. Also joining the fray a Yamaha SA503TVL and Sire Marcus Miller V7 bass for a Monthly Music Challenge entry on the theme of dreams.
As is usually the way the tune I’ve made up for the CosmicBos Monthly Music Podcast ‘Dreams’ challenge didn’t come out anything like I intended.
It was meant to be more disconcerting – in the loud bit I’m playing chords with microtonal intervals in places which sound out of tune to most people, particularly those with western ears – but in with everything it doesn’t really show. It may still be creating a bit of tension though.
Forty years of noise making largely indifference must fit the Music Weeklies theme ‘Perseverance’ so I’ve finished off a track I started in 1983 for the current challenge.
I had a bash at tweaking a track by Mike Five who runs the Lights And Lines Record Label. I’ve mainly topped and tailed it and avoided buggering up the bulk of the song too much. 1980’s style guitar solo at the end – or at least something similar to what I was playing in the 80s.
A video introduction to some of my music adjacent endeavours. Less a best of than a representative selection.

What better way could you spend a couple of hours than on the latest Man Of Arun releases? Well there’s too many to list here but should you fancy a break from them…
Combining Music Weeklies & Monthly prompts for ‘mother earth’ and ‘an idea for an original game, movie or any kind of media product that you’d love to compose music for’ we get…
Possibly a suitable soundtrack for a long, slow, dialogue heavy, action light, 70s style post nuclear apocalypse movie that the critics rave over but is frankly a bit dull.
A track started in 2017 I’ve no memory of. Found in a folder named ‘Guitar Noises’ I’ve little idea of how I made them as I’d bounced the tracks down, probably to free up resources for more effects, and deleted the originals. I’d hazard a guess the filter parts are Adrenalinn.
It takes a long time to do very little but I like is so have finished it off.
The film excerpt from the Prelinger Archives is of a nuclear weapons test in Nevada between 1951 and 1957.
‘I should be so Loki, Loki Loki Loki’.
In which our hero strikes out against the tyranny of received musical form / wasn’t going to go up against Wagner thank you very much.
A return to the Music Weeklies challenge which on this occasion asked for a tune based on Norse Mythology. I may have failed on the tune aspect.
