Out of the boundaries

Post by Johan Jansen »

Hi all,
I finished a song last weekend, I wrote is çause I was inspired by a silk ...ehh shawl from my wife.
Silk: The Mediterian Silk Route came to life in my head.
I had to fight my habit to use many notes in the sentences of the song. It lost its power. So what what was left resulted in this.
A strange song, I used about all instruments I had in my studio.
The sitar parts I played with the sitar bar I got about 20 years ago from Paul Franklin Sr.
The "Boston-like' slideguitarparts I played on the steel, using my Axe FX gear.
Please, spread the video and tell me what you think about it.
I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I did making it :) Cheers, Johan

I like it, Johan! Lots of different tones from the steel. Plus tremolo!

Is the "bass guitar" part done on steel?

Always good to see your name on the Forum. Chris
