Content & Detail

01The Guitar Patches12 extra-long
6 Hojave guitarsRaw, almost cello sounding patches with a lot of fortuitousness and life — for intimate textures, or to enhance realism as an additional layer
6 Badlands guitarsStraight, edgy and sometimes organ-like sounding patches, for sharper or epic soundscapes
TechniquesBowed · tremolos · vibratos · beaten with a wooden stick · driven patches
02The Texture Patches4 super-large
The characterOpen, huge and spacey patches, for ethereal or even symphonic orchestra sounding textures when mixed with other patches
The reverbsStraight, super long reverbs created with several eurorack modules, and Eventide and Strymon pedals
03Extra Colouringtwo more patches

04The Collaborationiamyank
WhoThe multi-instrumentalist producer and songwriter iamyank
What he doesBuilds memorable scenes around the audience with futuristic synths, spacey guitar and dirty drums, on the edge of instrumental and electronic music
What came nextThe successor Continuo 2, or both generations together as Continuo Collection

A guitar bowed instead of plucked stops being a guitar and becomes a section. That is the whole premise here: the instrument is recognisable enough to feel human and unrecognisable enough to sit under anything.
