In The Branches
США
Добавлен 1 июн 2017
In The Branches is a project for ambient guitar and space music made from "live-looping" improvisations. Most ITB songs are made with one guitar at a time, and most are recorded in a single take. Some ITB songs also utilize synthesizers, voices, flutes, field recordings, and various sound design experiments. In The Branches is musician/producer Shane Cotee's most contemplative guitar-based music.
In The Branches and the related synth-based project Quiet Sector both focus on texture, atmosphere, and mood above all. There are no strict tempos or click tracks in the studio for these recordings. These are not outlets for shredding. Layers are improvised and recorded in a live manner that is often impossible to replicate (though it can be fun to try). Headphones are recommended for the most immersive stereo experience.

As the title implies, Expanse Sessions III continues traditions started in the first two In The Branches albums of the series (the 2015 debut album and 2016 followup). Nostalgic lullabies of remembrance, hope, and meditations on the mysterious depths of the universe.
While some synthesizers and samples are used on the first two songs, the remainder are made purely from live guitar loops (one guitar, one loop pedal, and a lot of effects).

Particles Collide is a more experimental and unpredictable album from In The Branches, like Vivid Memories was. While the more traditional space-guitar sounds and themes of Expanse Sessions and Expanse Sessions II remain present, Particles Collide paints a wider variety of pictures from start to finish, telling a story of personal memories and imagined realities from a very intense and fulfilli...

The third In The Branches album, or fourth if we count the short "Live at the Waypost" EP. This album is perhaps the most consistently warm and welcoming one in the ITB catalogue. Things may get slightly dark in places like the second song, "Modern Ruins", but there's a bright optimism cast across this album that always sends me into a blissful state of nostalgia.

After releasing Expanse Sessions in August of 2015, I was still inspired to create more ambient music (I ended up making 15 ambient albums in three years). I continued working with live, improvised guitar loops as my main sound source, this time adding experimental sound design and sampling on Vivid Memories. This led to one of my most diverse and unique albums to date. It was released just two...

Thanks Tim 🎸🌌

"Floating" is a special one :)
This is fabulous.
Thanks a lot, Gabriel!
love how you can take a simple, tiny idea and turn it into a huge sound with so many beautiful layers. Keep up the good work man!
Thanks a lot! Every ITB song starts with one melody (almost always improvised on the spot), then I continue live-looping and layering, with the hope that I don't destroy the layering with a catastrophic mistake (lol). Glad you're enjoying it!
Transcendental XII - ruclips.net/video/FHeOQexSmaE/видео.html
I'm wondering, what sort of pedals do you use to achieve these sounds?
I've collected a large number of pedals over the years, but the heart of ITB is two pedals: Strymon TimeLine (stereo delay) and Strymon Big Sky (stereo reverb). The day I finally had both of those pedals together was the day it all clicked into place. I also have a "secret weapon" or two, such as the Eventide PitchFactor and the Hologram Infinite Jets, which add some (often unpredictable) pitch effects and unique textures. When the mood strikes, I'll load the live guitar loops into Cakewalk Sonar (powerful, free Windows DAW) and use synths & samples for layering (such as the first two songs on Expanse Sessions III and most songs on Expanse Sessions II, Particles Collide, Vivid Memories, etc.). Hope that helps. Thanks for listening and supporting my music 🌌
@@InTheBranchesOfficial - Thanks for the info!
Another great album. Well done!
I just bought this on Bandcamp. This is great. Thank you!
Thanks so much! Sorry for the delayed response; I've been on vacation in Europe.
I'm about 19 minutes in and this is great. I've subscribed and will definitely check out your other work. Thank you.

MESMERIZING AND GRIPPING
I googled ambient guitar, one night about four years ago, and in the branches came up. Changed my life.
Always glad to have your support, Matty (assuming I remember your name correctly). Most coworkers and random people look at me like I'm crazy when I show them these albums. The contrast between fans who "get it" and everyone else is pretty jarring and makes me self-conscious about my art. I'm sure many other artists can relate, but it's a strange feeling that occasionally gets relieved by a positive RUclips comment (like yours) or a Bandcamp purchase. Thank you for your encouragement and your reminders that the hard work of recording & releasing albums is not for nothing.
All I wanted to hear. Thank you!

I so needed this! Thank for creating and sharing with the world. My stress has been lifted :) ❤

Great Masters from the other side definitely channeling thru you.Marvelous work! Thank you.
I appreciate that! Thank you.
Remastered 2021 have a digital booklet?
Мощь!!!
THIS IS HOW MUSIC TALKS TO THE SPIRIT.🤔👍🏻
Альбом четкий ,как и все остальные !Мой фаворит в этом альбоме трек The Celestial Source!💪🎹👍🙂.Когда ждать следующий альбом ?🙂
Wow. So calming and peaceful. Haven’t heard since last May 2022. And I just read your Channel description now, definitely gotta try with headphones on. This music is a trip 🤯🔭🌲🎸It feels super nice coming back to this stuff!!
I haven't cried for so long, but when listening to the album, I cried like a child. This is the saddest and most impressive thing I've discovered lately. Thank you, you're a wizard.
Thank you very much. I often write my (subjectively) saddest songs without realizing it at all, just playing the notes and following instincts, not consciously trying to convey a specific feeling and not thinking much about it during the process. The song's meaning usually reveals its true self to me later, after I've forgotten about the process of making it. Sadness is the main quality that makes music meaningful and beautiful to me, so I really appreciate the comment.
It’s spreading. Slowly but surely.
What is the genre of these songs? I love it so much.
Awesomeness
Returning once again to make a comment, I absolutely love love love your work I am a musician, very high caliber. What I’m trying to say by that is not that it takes a lot for me to be pleased but it’s nice to be pleased by somebody who is a master what they do these are expertly crafted pieces better than a lot of junk. That’s out there and there is junk, I mean it’s all relaxing and stuff but this is just a craft that requires intelligence in an understanding of the equipment and everything and just love your work my brother would love to work with you one day, but either way I still love your work
Big thanks for the comment, my friend. I've always been shy and hesitant about sharing my music, but feedback like that reminds me why I do all the hard work of finishing and releasing albums to the public. From a quick look at your videos, a collaboration between our styles could be something very special indeed. Keep in touch!
Mais uma obra bem trabalhada! gratidão amei esse som!
Muito obrigado, meu amigo!
Discovered you this morning... there are many more albums by this artist on Spotify, now on replay echoing throughout the halls in my home. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFULLY HAUNTING ENCHANTING MYSTERIOUS JOYFUL... MUSIC 🎶
@@InTheBranchesOfficial Looking forward to your new album :)))))
Shane I’m a professional musician and I love to get knocked out by other people and you do that. I really respect your work and your ability to make it not sound like a keyboard or a guitar orchestra. It’s just, well, your music just sounds it’s there. It takes me away from the analytical. It takes me to a beautiful place where I can actually enjoy sound and not think about how somebody’s doing it, what they’re doing or whatever I like to be taken away and I know it’s always a great complement one. Another position can be taken away and I give you that but I am interested in your set up on Guitar. You must have 1 million pedals is there a particular one or particular ones that you really like?
Thank you for the generous comment, Martin! I'm finishing up a new album and can't wait to share it (Soundcloud first, then Bandcamp, then RUclips + globally). To answer your question, the main pedals that unlocked In The Branches for me were two specific types of effects: 1) A stereo delay pedal with a looper (Strymon TimeLine) and 2) A lush stereo reverb (Strymon Big Sky). When I found out the TimeLine looper had no tempo sync, I was disappointed for a moment. Then I tried it out, and found a nearly unlimited source of musical inspiration, drawing on decades of self-teaching and freely playing guitar for countless hours over many years. I've been investing into VST plugins like the SoundToys collection, many Waves plugins, and 2-C Audio Aether (top-notch software reverb, recommended). On my upcoming album "Carpathian Dreams", you'll hear the result of these new combinations of effects.
This is dynamite.
the images are just like my dreams when i sleep listening to ambient guitar music
Sometimes I think these places wrote the music more than I did... Thanks for the nice comments.
hey thanks for having all this beautiful guitar music for us to enjoy them free of charge...
Très bon travail, continu de nous enchanter!
I wish this album was on Spotify
I've been meaning to do that for ages, but have been holding back since I wanted to remaster the album with new studio equipment. Perfectionism strikes again, hmm. I'll try to get it on Spotify this month. Thanks for the reminder!
@@InTheBranchesOfficial no problem man hope its on there soon!
this is beautiful.
Glad you think so, thanks!
Great stuff. Been listening to it all week. Love it that you left in a little acoustic guitar buzz at 48:36.
Thanks a lot, I'm glad you're enjoying it. Erik Wollo once said something like, "Making a song 100% perfect takes away its humanity. I try to stop at 98%." I keep that in mind while editing these live improvisations into albums.
Your music inspired me to make my own, today I released an album Thank You and please never stop 💚
Thanks a lot, I'm thrilled to hear it. Nice work!
As a metal head, metal music has come to a pause. Ambient music changed a part of me and my daily routine. I so want to play this kind of music now. Let’s see if I can one day get all the instruments I need to perform such masterpiece
I love Meshuggah and Hammock equally... there are a lot of us out there. Get yourself a couple delay pedals and a volume pedal.
I AM IN THE SAME SIDE.
Same here! There's just something about going from one extreme to the other. I feel like it balances me out. Stupid I know but it's the only way I can describe it.
Go grab a volume pedal, a versatile looper. The timeline is great because it’s a delay and looper and then grab yourself a big sky reverb. Just those pedals alone will work wonders. Also a preamp pedal upfront. Strymon Makes a great pedal called the iridium Strymon, big sky, Strymon timeline, iridium, volume pedal I’m telling you. And you’re off Throwing the VST synthesizer Something simple for pads
Light music like this influences metal music. No reason to confine yourself to one thing only but we will never not be a part of the music community we love
