Hey SG101ers

The Big Swell Drifters have posted a new song - Surfin' with the Diablo to Soundcloud and Bandcamp. Stream or download via the links below:

https://soundcloud.com/thebigswelldrifters/surfin-with-the-diablo-1

https://thebigswelldrifters.bandcamp.com/track/surfin-with-the-diablo

This is the first track I've posted since getting the Surfybear - I think the reverb sound is a vast improvement on the last couple of tracks I've posted using the reverb stompbox plug-in in Logic.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers

John

Hey John, you ain't gettin' much love on here but I like the new song. The reverb does sound good.

The first thing that struck me was that riff you use, a modification of the Pipeline one. I WAS GOING TO USE THAT SAME RIFF. Oh well, you got there first...

I'd like to hear this song with surfier sounding drums. I'm a real traditionalist when it comes to surf drums so I'm always hoping to hear something that sounds like it's from the 60's. Your other songs feature drums similar to this one--that is, fairly rock n' roll rather than surf--but I think in this song it stands more at odds to my ear because the song itself has more of a traditional feel.

Anyway, nice work and thanks for sharing. Your songs come up regularly in my Soundcloud rotation.

Hi Redfeather, apologies for tardy response - I only just saw your comment. Thanks for your feedback - comments taken on board and appreciated. Yes, it can be tough finding an audience round here - that’s cool though. I do it because I enjoy it and love playing so anything over and above that is a bonus.

Yeah soundcloud has been working out quite well. Have a couple more tracks in the . . . ah final stages so should post over the next month or so.

Anyhow, thanks again for making contact.

John
