🎥 “One” Intro Solo
I recently learned the intro solo to Metallica’s “One”, so I thought I record that as well.
This bit lent itself well to looper usage – which I use in this video to record the rhythm guitar.
It’s just played freely, so it turned out a little slower than the original. Also, playing without metronome or drums shows here, as a few sections are rushed.
This time, it’s simply recorded together with the iPhone video using the headphone microphone – on my leg, and directly in front of the Katana Mini amp.

🎧 Deserted – Gatecreeper
To counter the complexity that is Blood Incantation, I need some easy listening. In comes this Gatecreeper album.

Chrome will try out letting users subscribe to RSS feed right in the browser.
This is a welcome experiment, after all main browsers removed RSS-related features in recent years. I wish they came back. It’d be great if RSS feeds were surfaced via a consistent UI and the ability to easily subscribe to feeds without the need for additional software (at least to get started).
I don’t have high hopes, though.
Today, people have many ways to keep up with their favorite websites, including subscribing to mailing lists, notifications and RSS. It’s a ...
🎧 Hidden History of the Human Race – Blood Incantation
My new friend Jasper recommended this band to me. And so this album has been in rotation ever since.
It’s technical death metal in a raw old school sound, interspersed with these atmospheric outer space parts. Not quite sure what this reminds of. Maybe Cynic!? Anyway, it’s a great album with (still) lots to discover.
My current favourite is the 18-minute long closing track “Awakening From the Dream of Existence to the Multidimensional Nature of Our Reality (Mirror of the Soul)”.
