  • "I'm no shredder, and I wouldn't want to be," says Jim Jarmusch.
    In SQÜRL's music, the twisted scraping of industrial wreckage (to my ears the byproduct Jarmusch's northeast Ohio upbringing) gives way to an uneasy drone seemingly stuck in time like crestfallen Lake Erie tides fighting a losing battle against subzero temperatures before resolving at last into saturated but sparkling reverberated arpeggios. It's what The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly might have sounded like if Ennio Morricone booked studio time with Steve Albini and hired Sunn O))) as session musicians. Learn more: goo.gl/WegiZD

    SQÜRL's soundtrack to his movie, Only Lover's Left Alive is absolutely incredible. Very cool to hear him talk about his gear, thanks!

    • @EarthQuakerDevices

      Totally! When Akron's non-profit arthouse theater The Nightlight opened a few years ago, they chose "Only Lovers Left Alive" as their first feature. It was super cool to finally see Jim's movies on the big screen in his (and our) hometown!

    • @ryanworthley4555
      @ryanworthley4555 6 років тому +2

      That's great! I didn't know he was Ohio native. The way the soundtrack "Only Lovers Left Alive" not only sounds incredible but it adds so much depth to the story. I love the idea of a composer living for hundreds of years, now making modern music with fuzz pedals!

    Jim is a legend. I’m not surprised he’s into EarthQuaker. He came up with all of the best of the 70-80s underground rock’n’rollers.

    Perfect description. Love it. Love Jim's movies(Dead Man!!!) and SQURL is right up there with any drone/doom band around. What an amazing talent.

    I think it’s cool how you guys don’t shun when the Artists show pedals that aren’t EQD!
    With that said, EQD, makes some of my favorite pedals!!

  • @azimovwatts6425
    @azimovwatts6425 4 роки тому +5

    It's interesting how Jarmusch described putting sound "under" the images. I've always sort of thought about it the other way around, that the music is layered on top of the image.

    • @stuminnis4050
      @stuminnis4050 2 роки тому

      In film editing, both in the old flatbed days and now also in digital editors, standard practice is to have the music usually reside in the bottom track of the audio master mix. Your point about the different mindset is still valid, but his use of that word may just be an artifact of of his filmmaking experience.

      If I had to guess, it's because with a barre chord, you can learn one shape and move it all over the neck. And because Iggy Pop is always right.
