005: Effects & Improvisation

Esoteric Modulation

In this week's Esoteric Modulation we talk about effects, the implications of different DSP's, Whether to go in the rack or out and using effects as an instrument. We take a look at a Tate podcast that talks about art and music improvisation. We have a listener question on can something easy to produce or a mistake be art. And we round it off with our Bandcamp artist of the week Matthew Shaw.
