Guitar Drop Duet in A & C




Kind of like lovers after a rough go of it. The piece is 17 minutes long and consists of me dropping these guitars from a ladder onto each other or the ground and sort of roughing
them up a little. Those are potato stains if you're wondering.

A sketch for a larger piece I have in mind for another location. While I was at St. Charles Community College documenting and performing "Guitar Actions" I noticed a piano stuffed in the corner. I've always wanted to do a prepared piano piece paired with electric guitar and potato. In this case the potatoes serve to block the hammer dampers from stopping the B string sections. The guitars were ostrich tuned to B. Ostrich tuning means that you tune each string to the same note. I recorded the project but have yet to fumble with it in FCP and Logic.
