Mr. Vencil is the embodiment of genuine. Open attitude and such a joyous, nurturing spirit. I love that he focuses on both the AMBIENT side AND the MUSIC side . A reverence and a spirituality that inspires Purposeful Music! In a world where simply demonstrating pedals would suffice as ‘ambient music’, Bill’s authenticity adds value in such a personal way. Authentic Intelligence.

One of the coolest ambient guitar tricks I learned was from Steve Hillage. He used a wah pedal, overdrive and delay, maybe some flange. He uses the wah as a filter, slowly cranking the wah back and forth. It creates a sound like an analog synth with the filter slowly opening and closing. I actually did think it was synth for a long time, but then finally realized what he was actually doing. there's so much that can be done with ambient guitar with very little gear. Even just overdrive, delay and a volume pedal can do a *ton*

Interesting. I gravitate towards plainsong/psalm tones such as Dies Irae, Pange Lingua, or Tallis' 3rd psalm tune (the inspiration for Ralph Vaughn Williams' Variations)

I see a project in the works... The Frippertronic Hymnal

I've tried this before with a couple of old folk tunes, but I didn't consider how the structure of some originals will lend themselves better to Frippertronics than others. I have fallen into the muddy chord trap many times. It took me a while to simplify the chords. As for variations, I wonder if it would also work using chord inversions? All food for thought and experimentation. A great tutorial, Bill. Thanks!

Challenge: Deicide, skillex, and the worst song you can find in the top 40... The choosing won't be as hard as the task of listening to the top 40..

Just to clarify. The techno-autotune-disco on robotussin that infests the radio waves more frequently than the dumb country-pop, or occasional rhcp or green day song that sneaks in..
