We don't get fog here in Albuquerque very often, so this morning I was surprised to see thick fog out the kitchen window when I got up. My buddy Donnie (who's also the drummer in my band and a professional drone pilot) lives on the other side of town where the skies were clear, and he decided to shoot some video of the occasion.
Earlier this year, he asked me to record some "ambient music" that he could use for short video demos without having to pay royalties to a third party. I was happy to oblige. I recorded four or five different "short songs" for him in the course of about 30 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised to hear one of my little recordings as the background for the video that he posted today on Facebook. This music was totally ad-libbed...not planned or written out at all. It was recorded in a single take, on a single stereo track, with a cheap Mexican-made Fender Stratocaster and my Fractal Axe-Fx amp/effects modeler played into my Tascam 8-track digital recorder. I sure love the new technology available these days.
