Has been a wee while since I have updated this here blog... it is festival time here on my little island and the TT is well and truly in swing....
I was supposed to be starting my busking this week, however cheap beer, lots of skanking and chasing tail has been getting in the way. I will get my shit together! So, Stand out in a Crowd went down mostly really well... except the fact that the head of the Manx Methodist Chuch somehow heard it and reviewed it as 'an awful racket'. On noticing this, I also realised I had not prepared for last weeks FX Friday, so had to wing it.... quickly learned the housemartins caravan of love... as it is my favourite song in which the music video is filmed in a church. Being a white conscientious rapper from the Isle of Man is a pretty niche market and I want everyone to have something to listen to on my channel. A friend of mine has requested me to do a video with no pedals to 'stop me hiding' behind the gadgetry... so stay tuned. Boring post... will update again soon... One Love, Han-FX I have had a busy little week in Han-HQ!
I got my Boss GT-10 pedal (finally) and after 2 days of tweaking and learning, i think I have finally started to understand how to use it. I will include some advice and stuff at some point, so you guys can see what I am doing and how I am doing it. I also learned I can line straight out the pedals, through a soundcard, directly into my computer (GarageBand) To test it out, me and my good friend Jordi set ourselves a challenge to produce an entire song/music video in 12 hours. The video is up on YouTube and is called March Against Monsanto. I am pleased. March Against Monsanto - South Africa/Cape Town are playing it at the March tonight. Mind Blowing. Brief set at the Schooner Bar in Ramsey last night, where I learned that drunken driving off the loop pedal and new technology is not for me. I wont be doing it again... Although, I did do an improv song...as I am hoping to busk, I am trying to get better on my feet.... Here is a link to the recording. https://soundcloud.com/han-fx/schooner-improv Keep on Rockin', because you are Rolling with Han-FX. |
