about

From the beginning, the 'concept' behind the first Gentle Cycle album was to push the limits of volume and tape distortion as much as possible. We even sourced some '60's tape stock to do so, as more modern tape won't really distort like old recordings did. Unfortunately, the first reel was a failed experiment in that we tracked the bass far too over level and it lost any sense of definition. However, I recently went back and listened to this tape and figured out how to mix the bass guitar where it sounded pretty cool.
