Few Words

[LesStrat]

Another departure from my typical tones. Orange amp model. We were set up for recording when we were learning this, and the PA wasn’t available. So I used a small Orange combo from the band room to practice. It got to where I expected that tone for this song, so I programmed a new preset.

Rockin song that praises the Lord. I like it.

Are you writing? I dig the riffs.

We are having a listening session tonight with songs from the last couple of years. I’m still pleased with how this song turned out.

Sounds epic. Shades of Kansas meets Jethro Tull, but still your own thing really. The Orange sounds great.

Is this part of a bigger collection of songs?

I believe the YouTube link in my signature is still accurate.

This song is from the Teknon Theou album.

thanks. I’m pleased with the tone. It will be making an appearance on two or three songs on the next album.

Sorry for the late response.

The majority of the music is written by our drummer. I add my flair and tone to it, but the riffs are his. He is constantly writing. He has full arrangements in his head. Often, we don't fully comprehend his intent until we hear the recording. Occasionally I'll make minor changes. My input is more in the development of the arrangement and in vocals/melodies. We make a great team.

He also mixes our albums. We've been together nearly 19 years, and I still am surprised at how much he plans these things out.

Listening through my studio monitors, your guitar sounds fantastic and the drums sit nice in the mix.
