Looping

Put your hands up if you dig live pedal looping. Check it out on YouTube with KT Tunstall and her performance of Black Horse And The Cherry Tree. You only have to watch the beginning because… I know you’ve already heard the song 56,000 times.

Come on, Alex. You couldn’t write a little background blurb about the days when we used to loop in my basement 4 years ago? Remember the bells? Or maybe “Nick I will kill you”?

On a separate note, Howie Day’s song “Bunnies” (which I have only heard live) stands up as the coolest looping I have ever heard. Andrew Bird also does a lot of looping for his live shows. That guy is a virtuoso.

You guys are both wrong. I’m sorry to have to burst your bubbles, but this is simply the best looping hands down:

She blows my mind. Enjoy.

Nils, I do remember that! Good times with your looper thinger. I’ll have to give those artists a listen.

And Mykala… I sit behind a corporate firewall, preventing me from viewing this epic looping you speak of — curses!

Wow, that video was really cool, Mykala. It is definitely almost as good as the “Nick, I will kill you” loop performed by Matthew Gamble.

Hooray! I’m glad you appreciated it. Immy is amazing, and if I liked women in a romantic way I’m pretty sure we’d have been married about 4 years ago. :)
