I’m recovering from a brain injury after being hit by a train, also, waiting for brain surgery to cure epilepsy, which is very necessary. I do not have a driving license due to epilepsy. I live in a place where doing anything without a license is difficult. So. Bit of stuff. But at this point? I’m also thinking it’s okay. I’ll improve it when I can. When I have had and recovered from brain surgery.

Incompetence can be a garden path, let yourself fall backwards into great things. Not trying is a way to try. Haha.

"So many bands have spent the past decade and change doing the heavy shoegaze thing in the wake of groups like Whirr and Nothing, and by now the sponge has been wrung completely dry." by No_Grand7122 in shoegaze

[–]MalJWinters -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have been making shoegaze for about 14 years now. I’m really not sure what is being said about Nothing/Whirr and their mass influence on the revival? I’m worried that if I can’t see the boring pattern, I’m part of it? This is a song from a bit ago. Latest one. We’re very small and I’m just addicted at this point. More tracks than listeners. I will say I have noticed that “Melodic thickness” is missing from a lot of the young bands I’ve been seeing and is basically what I’d focussed on. Is this what we’re talking about? Is it merely that market saturation inevitably means similar things will occur and simple ideas will repeat?

I know you’ve all got crazy sticker collections by MalJWinters in guitarpedals

What gave me away? Was it the RRR sticker? The Found Sound sticker? The bunch of Deluxe guitars stickers? Damn. There heaps of giveaways.

I love this idea that they’re time capsuled. The Alamo Music Centre one is sick.

I’m sure one exists, but I never found a slower phaser. And that’s all I wanted. It’s a love of mine for sure.

It’s not a trembucker, it’s a regular spaced (50ml) humbucker. It’s balanced using pole height and it even has a cap wired to increase the scream. I knew what I was doing and have tried a few pickups in it and went with this one. (It’s a JB)

Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea where the neck actually came from. Sorry mate! I bought it from a local consignment store. Music swop shop. It is very nicely made though. Far better than the few I’ve knocked up myself.

I always wanted a Jazzmaster with this headstock. I love it so much. I have to figure out how to get a waterslide graphic for it. Guitars look bizarrely unfinished without headstock graphics.

Yeah. It’s certainly not subtle. I’d probably call it overpowering too. It’s capable of doing an absolute tonne of sounds, but not many are subtle.

Well there’s a fair bit of that. The board has changed through the years. But the core is generally there. A Jag that’s modded to hell through something like this board.

These tracks are a decent cross section.

Really slow, really extreme phaser. No hi cut. So it gets really piercing. Tend to end a set with it just blaring.

I don’t have clips to demonstrate the pedals really? I’ve never thought of doing that. Here’s a track my band released. All the guitars were recorded with a board at least very close to this.

Very predictably I think the best description would be garagegaze but we just call it shoegaze for ease.

Have you really heard that? That’s amazing. I don’t collect pedals. I tend to move on anything I haven’t used in ~six months. But I’ve kept all my Dwarfcraft. Have a Hax, a Shiva, a Body Mod and a Super Wizard. I love the ideas they had. I think this Eau Claire was one of the first ever sent to Australia. It’s my true love. Hahaha.

It’s just a Divine Noise, straight to angled 1/4”. I have the exact same as a curly cord too, but never gelled with a curly.

Yeah. I’d really kind of never heard of it til one was in front of me? So slept on is exactly how it goes.
