weird fx, samples and other sounds
 

what are some miscellaneous sounds in sp/bill's music that you want to know about. there are so many weird noises and textures and stuff that really add something to their respective songs but i don't know how they were made. let's discuss that in this thread.

just post them as you remember them


- the background sounds for In the Arms of Sleep, esp. the weird "voice" when bill sings "and i want you to stay with me"

-the shimmery effect in the By Starlight intro

-the scrapey harmonicky sound in 1979

-anyone solved the mystery of which effects/pedals were used for james' lead guitar in GATGC?

-same for bill's guitar sound on TFE

-the wailing over the stoner part of the ruby outro- is that just high-gain lead guitar?

-the dreamy distortion on psychodelic

-the weird echoey sounds in blank page

-the "monster voice" during the "down below the creatures scream" verse of TEG

-the FX combo for Stellar

-the guitar sound for Love, esp. the solo

-the opening hit of Slunk (where the guitar sortof buzzes off)

hm, interesting! thanks for that. regarding the arms of sleep thing, i'm not talking about the ebow but this other sound. its like a weird voice that sounds like its crying or something.

that effect from that doom game in that song on that melancholy album
