Julie Slick's second solo album, featuring special guests Pat Mastelotto, Adrian Belew, David Torn, Marco Minnemann, Eric Slick, Robbie "Seahag" Mangano, Rick Musallam, Claire Wadsworth, and more!
Julie Slick: I was using the Bass Station as the first pedal in my chain, and I always use compression, so that was engaged the entire time. I also use the boost switch as a quick way to play a louder line over the loops (engaged at 1:03), which I was creating with the Infinity Looper. Speaking of the Infinity Looper, I create the first loop (before the video actually starts), and then I have the second loop set up to record 2x the length of the first (0:49) and it automatically stops recording me after two bars (0:56), as you can see by the LED above the second loop, which changes from a steady red to green. I leave these two loops running during the verse, and I play the bass line in real time over them, then I cut out the second loop for each chorus (rather than leaving it trail or fade out mode). In the second verse, I engage the bass envelope phaser (3:29) as I change the bass line. Basically I weave the second loop in and out, and add layers to it towards the end of the song (after 4:56). In the end, I close out with the Fat Drive (6:30), and cut the first loop off with the live bass.
