When writing Ion Pulse Phasing Cloak Device, I was inspired by Steve Reich - Piano Phase. I decided to create Bass Phase or so, when several bass guitars will play the same melody at different speed. In my case I recorded melody at four different speeds, not two as in Piano Phase.
One important thing is that as in all previous recordings, all the bass guitars are live. I did not use processing to make guitar play faster or slower. This is why phasing sounds realistic. Also I did not use any delays, only reverberation.
The second part of the composition is octaving - only one note is used, but in different octaves.
The third part goes even further: only one note is used and only one octave, but four different bass guitars and different picking and fingering techniques. Here I also did not use delays to prevent mechanic sounding.
After all, different parts mix and the guitar plays inversion of the first bass part.
Guitars are semi-hollow Gibson ES-335 and Les Paul Line6 Variax700
