It's so good I wrote a review on the spot! Theo Young – Shadowplay « Can this even be called Music?

 

[MetalGravy]

Bought the EP and shared the bandcamp page on FB

 

[Captastic]

Really nice!

What was your signal chain?

 

[cjms1997]

I'm fapping to this EP. It's really f*cking good man. Keep it up!

 

[Thorerges]

Really good. well done.

 

[theo young]

Cheers dude glad you liked it!

Signal chain through my Axe-fx Ultra for most of the patches was:
Noise gate -> Compressor -> Drive block -> Amp -> Cab -> EQ -> (Delay ->Reverb for those sorts of patches) -> Compressor

Hope that's what you were after!

 

[Brodessa]

Really great sounding stuff! Can't wait to listen to it when I get home.
Stuff like this is always inspiring!

 

[Rizzo]

Totally Plini-ish to me as well! Awesome stuff, will have a complete listen ASAP! Keep the good work up man!

you should consider uploading the EP on youtube. You already have it as a "pay what you want download," so it's only going to help you spread the word. That's what I did with mine and it helped, especially since your artwork is good

Would you upload it as separate tracks, or as a "Full album" video? I want to do this myself, too, but don't know which one works best.

ORIGINALLY I was going to split it up into different videos, because I wanted to have artwork for each different song (due to the nature of the project).

Put yourself into someone else's shoes. What's the first thing you do when someone recommends a good musician? You probably look it up on youtube. In my case, my EP is short enough so that people will be willing to listen to it in one go. Sometimes I stay away from a full 50-minute album (if it's never been recommended to me) because that's how the brain works in this instant gratification era. Not necessarily bad, it's just the way it is. In THAT case, I would consider splitting your stuff into several videos.
