Total Guitar Pedal Geekery...

2010-04-21T09:12:00.000-07:00

I jump on these delay pedals so much, I've worn out the latch.
But with a bit of lateral thinking and a local handy man, they're reborn!

So 'mend and make do' as they say, and support your local handy man!

Coney Island...

2009-05-16T17:58:00.001-07:00

So today we took a break from the studio in search of some outside stimulus... We get on the F train for about an hour passing through loads of industiral estates and over the biggest graveyard we have ever seen, graves as far as the eye can see. We get off at Coney Island, the place is about to be redeveloped so this is probably the only chance we'll get to see what is left of its eerie charm.

The weather is humid and misty and truthfully this is the creepiest place we have ever seen. Amongst the old school faded and peeling 'shoot the freak' signs and run down huts housing unappealing arcade games are workers willing you to "throw the frisby, I'll buy your first go, it may be your lucky day".

The top of the rickerty rollarcoaster is barely visible from the low cloud and the smell of sea salt and clams is intense and nostalgic. We feel like we've been here before either in a dream or a nightmare which one i'm not sure, as long as we don't end up in a Requiem for a Dream-like situation - then I don't care.

There is something really depressing about out of season sea side towns where empty rides sit motionless, sun-faded ice cream signs swing back and forth in the breeze, and everything feels like its in slow motion. I think this place has seen better days but i'm glad i've seen it, it'll be sad to see it go.

Ellie's Sliver Boots

2009-04-10T11:12:00.000-07:00

If John Fluevog won't make a pair of silver boots for your size 3 feet, make your own as Ellie did...

Take a pair of shiny black boots...

Ruff them up with some fine-grade wet and dry.

Until the desired 'vintage' appearance is achieved...'

done..

Apply small amounts of silver paint. I sprayed the news paper and let

the wind blow the pain onto the boots.

Voilà! Silver boots...

Deluka's Screen Printing experiment...

2008-09-20T03:44:00.000-07:00

We've wanted to screen print our own t-shirts for ages, so we decided to actually put it in to action instead of talking about it.

And not ones to shy away from hard work (and cut costs) we made our own frame and mesh:

Stretch the material over your frame...

Slap on the L.S.E.

Wash out the unbaked residual paint...

Gently does it...

Peel and reveal...

Best to use a vintage hairdryer to speed up the process..

Now hit the strip...

2008-09-18T02:25:00.000-07:00

We maintained our iLike page the other days, so add us!

FOUND A CAMERA...

2008-08-29T09:18:00.000-07:00

Our good friend found an old looking camera the other day. It turned out to be a Voigtlander Vito B. Made in the early 1950's this little beauty has quite the cult following on Flickr it would appear.

It had some film in it which was quite creepy - the thought of getting it devolved, and being asked to pull your trousers down upon collection by the police - is not a welcoming one.

As it happened, it was an old couples holiday snaps. Maybe they thought "Shouldn't we get one of those modern Polaroids?"
