Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)New Bass Rig Test 270819 (Using riffs from my bass solo project "Poor Badger")Sound test of my bass rig, where I split the signal from my bass in 2 separate parallel signal chains, one carrying my bass signal going into Channel 1 of my Peavey Mixer Amp, and one where my bass signal is send through an octaver set to a 100% 1 octave up signal only going into Channel 2 of my Peavey Mixer Amp, kind of giving me the effect of something reminiscent of a guitar playing unison with my bass, only of course 1 octave higher.
The riffs used are from some of the songs I am working on at the moment for my bass solo...2019-08-0212 min

Lyrics:
Tusmørket Falder
Over ensomme øer
af blanke søer
sindet daler
mens tusmørket falder
vanvidsnatten kalder
de fortabte hjem
fra Limbo-dans
Over sennepmarkens
bitre gule glans
flygter sjæle
i en kaos-dans
kroppene forladte
støtter stirrer tomt
mens Satan flytter
evigt deres tunge skridt
mod horisontens afgrund
-
English translation:
Twilight Falls
Above lonely islands
of glossy lakes
the mind sinks
while twilight falls
the night of madness calls
lost souls home
from Limbo dance
Above the mustard field's
bitter yellow hue
souls flee

In Dreams
I know a place where the wind is whispering songs

I know a place where the skies are painting pictures
coloring thoughts as the willows weep a sad song

I know a place where I used to hide my deepest secret thoughts

Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)Jacob Læby - Zero Divided by ZeroLyrics:
Zero Divided by Zero
Will ignore everyone and everything my self included
as I have reached an elevated state of non-being
as such become one with the omnipresent void behind and beyond all creation
and come undone in the spiraling all seeing eye
which center reflects the absolute singularity of matter, mind and spirit
unified inseparably in the polychrome polygon's infinite angles
that square the circle of existence
and touch the untold truth within the unseen view of none
repeated indefinitely as zero divided by zero
The lie that is not, hence isn't a lie at all
yet nothingness...2018-09-1205 min

The wavelengths of the 3 primary colors our optic nerves can perceive has been transposed and transformed to sound within the audible spectrum through a sinus wave generator.
A higher and a lower pitch for each of the 3 colors has been arranged into this musical piece.

Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)Jacob Læby - Den Hvide Død (The White Death)The poem by Jacob Læby this track is based on:
The White Death
Outside the desert rides on gluttonous dead camels
and we draw circles in the sand
like traces from a meandering snake
The starling's wailing anguish of spring
signs
cloaked in cosmic background noise
The virus judgment from beyond's primordial soup
develops a photograph of you in second hand clothes
that seems to incarnate the mumps' swollen flu-bride
choked by the neuter mirror image of Pan
A bioluminence shadow of the past
lost in the vertiginous meta-geometric labyrinth of Fibunaci
The white death that sometimes creeps

Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)Jacob Læby - LabyrinthLyrics:
Labyrinth
The inner room is filled with doors that leads outwards
away from this and into the other,
The inner room is painted such that
it's color change according to the content
of the outer room,
which color is defined by the sum of all other colors
in all of the other rooms
The building that such appears is a kind of kaleidoscopic labyrinth
of impossibilities
where everything possible forfeits behind a hallucinating epiphany
on clarity's event horizon
...and weeping rivers form oceans of gold

Canary
For thousand years I roamed these lead mines

in the bottom of it's cage
Guess I should be grateful
guess few canaries get to live a thousand years
Praise the thousand year old canary!
Praise the thousand year old bird!
Praise the thousand year old canary!
Praise the bird!
May it's angelic wings
blind your third eye
with reflections of gold.

Corageous I move on

Tales of the past

and in the snow clad mountain top
corageous I move on
This endless tale...

Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)Ibanez Mikro Geezer Black Finger (VST Processed)So pulled myself together to finally record a sample with the new heavier gauged strings (.105-.045) and my Black Finger used as tube preamp instead of the Behringer Mic100.
So for the signal path for both samples is:
Ibanez Mikro with EMG Geezer Butler pickups> EHX Black Finger > Sound Interface
And this second sound test is lightly processed to give an idea of what it would sound like through a rig in an actual room.2017-07-2308 min

Jacob Laeby (drone/ambient/noise)Jacob Læby - A LullabyLyrics:
Lullaby
A poignant scent, in fevered dreams
somewhat blue
weathered and blurred,
scrawled signs written on the water's surface
in the language of sea creatures,
incognizable and out of reach.
Now all a washed up riddle
laying rotten on the shoreline
an enigma without dignity
a question mark hidden behind each sentence
a lament for a long lost love,
at the banks of Styx
And then:
Suddenly, yet subtle,
like a premonition of a possible reconciliation,
a single star shines through
oscillating in the vibrant foggy night sky,
orchestrating the wind in the weeping willow's shushing hum,
one misty...2017-01-1405 min
