Brian Larkin: shred this too, the way it's meant to be.

The description says it all... it really is about capturing that illusive, spontaneous, genius... if the description is right... we're likely to get a good dose more of Brian's intelligent playing... and we're looking forward to it!

Brian Larkin says:
2 reasons for the guitar tone: 1) From the contest description, I got the impression they wanted something more raw and unpolished, so it was a conscious decision to use the raw audio from the camera to remove all doubt about overdubs/punch-ins, etc. 2) I still considered using what I recorded in Nuendo, but a pretty big latency "hiccup" completely screwed the audio for this take up (everything off by 1 second from about :50 on), and I didn't want to get into copying/pasting from other takes.

This entry is "composed" from a few different improvised takes. The next one (or two) will be completely improvised, and with any luck will have better audio, more along the lines of the last 10 or so videos I posted before this one.

Thanks for watching!
