An ambient live performance constructed from simple guitar parts using a looping pedal.
#ambientguitar

1. The rhythmic part was pre-recorded into Loop 3 of the looper pedal 0:01
2. I recorded the first guitar part into Loop 2 of the looper pedal using the Stereo Wet reverb 0:08
3. I stopped Loop 2 from playing and recorded swells in a reverse chord progression (B,C#m,A,C#m) into Loop 3 of the looper pedal 0:34
4. I reversed Loop 3 so the swells will start playing in the desired chord progression order (C#m,A,C#m,B) and I start Loop 2 back 0:55
5. I play over my loops using the Vick Audio Tree of Life OD, El Capistan, DD20, and Keeley Aurora Reverb 01:32
6. I stop Loop 3 and then Fade Out Loop 1, Leaving only Loop 2 playing 03:40
7. I apply an octave down effect to Loop 2 and then play some swelled notes over that 04:23
