This is rather good,actually.You're right,the sound is bad but the music i'm enjoying.Let's see.......

porkmarras 08.27.2006 09:44 PM

It reminds of the velvet underground and sonic youth of all bands.

porkmarras 08.27.2006 09:48 PM

I have to say that the quality of the sound is rather bad.I've added some needed treble to it and cut the abrupt ending of the track.

porkmarras 08.28.2006 05:24 AM

Right,there isn't terribly much that you can do to this track as it seems that that it's ben recorded on very cheap equipment and at not very accurate recording levels.I've added some treble,eliminated some hiss(sounds like it was recorded on a dictaphone to me) and tried to lower its volume a bit.I'll re-post it in a bit.

porkmarras 08.28.2006 08:56 AM

Here it is.I've tried my best:

Hey thanks a lot. It is a shame because it's a great song but he has no recording experience. Ill give yr fix a listen.
Im going to be working on the notes soon and if you'd like yr name on them let me know.

porkmarras 08.28.2006 03:18 PM

No problem.I was a bit bugged by it because it is a pretty good piece of music recorded in an awful way.Who is it anyway?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 08.28.2006 03:21 PM

The guys name is eli adelman. I believe he goes by gustav though. Thats what the tape was labeled.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 08.28.2006 03:23 PM

hes from the board too.

Hi,
i saw on the SY message board, that your taking guitar peices for a compolation. do they necessarily havew to be "noise"? I've got an eleven minute krautrock peice for solo guitar+looper (sounds like neu! meets glenn branca, kind of). i can send it to you if you are inerested. bu the only problem is the only format i have it on is cassete tape. let me know if thats OK.
thanks
Elie

Spotted the Glen Branca influence too.Not original in any way but who needs originality when the quality of the music is that good.I'm impressed(not by the recording but by the music)

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 08.28.2006 03:29 PM

Yeah, you can really tell towards the end. Some drums I think would bring it higher, but then it wouldnt qualify for the comp.

porkmarras 08.28.2006 03:31 PM

The music is good.It qualifies for something.I'd say put it on with its lo-fi charm and pervert the policy of such compilation.It wont do anyone anyone any harm.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 08.28.2006 03:34 PM

yeah, I have to put it on just because its good. A good closer I think.

Holy shit! thats me!!!
thanks you guys! i know the recording is horrible. i recorded onto a digital four track ut since i dont have the equipment to edit the tracks digitally, i just played them through my amp while a tape recorder with a mike was recording. old school shit. thanks for the kind words, its definatly glenn brance, neu! influenced. im very happy to hear that it might make it onto the comp.

fugazifan 08.28.2006 07:19 PM

oh by the way, its Gustaff with two "f's' at the end, not a V;-)

Can you not record into a laptop/pc with a little mike?I've been listening to that throughout the day.I really enjoyed it.In a way i think it should be left the way it is but i've improved the sound a little.
