    Hi Ben, hope you Emily and Alan are keeping well, I miss your Saturday vlogs, but I think you made the right decision to enjoy your lives, at least I can enjoy your music. 🤗👍

    Benny, you are always so inventive! Wish I could use a loop station, but like anything, I know its about trying things out! Hope you have more gigs planned..We'd happily travel from Wales to see you! By the way, thats a great track to put on while I do some chores, and I can sway in the process!!

  • @littlesid2023
    @littlesid2023 4 месяца назад +1

    Love it! And those effects really enhance the music. Perhaps too late to include in this song, but I was hearing ‘tabla’ percussion in my mind. Just as you can bend the guitar sound the tabla drum is a perfect companion. Not that I’m a percussion expert! Thanks for the video as always.

    Hi Benny. I think you’re having a lot of success with your music and should feel confident with the decisions you’re making. You like what you’re doing, I like what you’re doing, and the only thing left is to take your music to the people and see if they like it too.
    Sorry if I unsettled you when I saw you and Emily along the canal. I usually keep my cool better but I think I was a bit too loud when I yelled hello.
    Keep going with your music. It’s really great.

    Great really nice . Im sure that will go down well at a ‘Live’ Gig. You will have the whole place Dancing along 0:15 with you 😊 . You certainly seem to have got the hang of that ‘Looper’ . Not easy to Sing ,Play Guitar and operate the Sliders and Buttons all at the same time . I have enough trouble just pressing ‘Record’ and then play . Im sure this time next year , you will be making an appearance on a Glastonbury Stage 🎉 And not before time ! !😊

    Good to be able to express your talent more like this. Couldn't really catch any of the lyrics but that didn't do Tyrannosaurus Rex any harm. Still wish you would try for more commercial success with a love song or two, maybe keep these dreamy sequences for the chorous. Feels like you are using about 20% of your ability but even that is awesome.

    Good stuff Benny, can you let me know what microphone set up you have? Also what is the best way to store a guitar on a narrowboat :)

    • @Wobbz9413
      @Wobbz9413 4 месяца назад +2

      In my opinion, on the subject of storing guitars, Im living and traveling in a caravan in Australia and I have two guitars with me. What I do is play them as much as possible, and when not being played they are in their cases and thrown in a corner or on the bed. They are well made guitars, not some delicate ceramic from ancient china. I think we listen, sometimes, to too much internet static. Guitars are not to be kept in some dark, humidified crypt. Only to be opened up, wondered over and reverently put away again. They are beautiful tools to make music with. Having said that, I do have some guitars I dont travel with. In short, if you take it with you, just relax and enjoy the guitar. Adjust the relief a bit if it moves about and just play it and keep in a good case when not in use.

    • @bentanglemusic
      @bentanglemusic  4 месяца назад +1

      Hiya! I have an akg sm 58 style mic here, but I record alot with an akg condenser mic, 450 I think it is.
      I don't worry too much about guitar storage, unless it's super cold in which case I get them in the case or keep them in a heated space. One guy in a guitar shop actually told me a guitar will age quicker in a boat and so the wood will mature fast..!
