Penguin Headphone Amplifier

Amplifiers on amplify.

YES!!!!!

Headphone amp

Your eyes do not deceive you. This headphone amplifier is built into a Penguin tin. I think that’s pretty darn cool, myself, and so do a lot of other people who’ve bought amps of this type. Or built them.

The circuit this amplifier uses, you see, was invented by a chap called Chu Moy, who published it here, for anyone to build or improve upon.

Chu created a monster. So-called “CMoy” amps spread like wildfire through the audio-twiddler world. With good reason; they’re based on a simple operational amplifier chip, need few other components, run happily from a simple nine volt battery for a long time, and sound really good.

Skull Orchard

That album cover is just creepy, think its the rubber duckie that does it…

Amplify’d from www.bloodshotrecords.com

That’s right an LP!  First Langford vinyl since Thatcher was knocking around Number 10 Downing!   Edition of 1000

LP contains download card with digital version of album, plus two songs not on the CD and extra artwork

Great album cover. Nice Guitar Pics;)

Yes, this is awesome and when can I pre-order it…..I was recently at Kingsize Soundlabs and saw some original Langford paintings that had been presented to Dave Trumfio.  They were amazing.  Thanks Jon for all the great art and music.

Epic Guitarist – The Underground Guitarist

I finally made a Youtube video of myself playing. Kind of funny and full of mistakes, Im leaving it as is to show a starting point to move forward from.

Amplify’d from undergroundguitarist.com
After running this site for a year, all the cool emails from friends I have made online I decided to (briefly) step out from behind the curtains and made and uploaded a vid of me playing my electric guitar along with an original backing track. 

I load all my guitar backing tracks to SoundCloud, and they are free to download if you like :)   (its also a  great place to network as a musician)

Channeling Eddie

The right Guitar and Amp and channeling the great Eddie V:

Amplify’d from www.youtube.com
An “Inspired” Moment

A “hero” inspired, on-the-spot solo with my guitar :)

That was AWESOME! Stuff like this is what keeps me goin!

The only effects that I used was the MXR Phase 90 in front of the amp (kicked it on for a “few” seconds at one point) & a Boss Digital Delay set for a subtle, “reverb-like” sound in the FX loop. Other than that, the sound is all the guitar & amp.

Who is your hero again?

lol, just kiddin’ :)

Pure fingertapping awesomeness… Eddie would be proud.

Was the costume really necessary?

Good players do not need to disguise.

On the other hand… good work :)

Awesome Key Drumming by Music Man Dre

My friend Andre Forbes aka Music Man Dre sent me this vid a couple of days ago and I just got a chance to watch it. Wow, he certainly has a gift. Check it out…

Key Drums “BOOM”

I know it’s not typically seen, but there are many people who have posted videos playing Key Drums. People use Key Drums in studio recordings, but there are still nuances that can only be caught on an acoustic set. My intent is not to replace drummers, because I play acoustic myself, but I don’t think I would do as well on acoustic as I do on Key Drums at the moment. I’m just sharing a talent I have. Glad you liked the video.

I can probably do most of the licks on acoustic if I put the practice in, but I don’t have a set to practice on at the moment..*LOL*

Be Blessed,

Dre’

Good Advice from Skeet – Master Busker

Ever since seeing the movie “Once” I have often imagined what it would be like to actually be a busker, altho my non accompanied playing isn’t anything anyone would pay for and my singing would actually make people pay to shut me up…lol

Skeeter here has live the life and has a lot of great advice for any one wanting to take up Busking as a living…

EPIC new original composition for Aeterna

Hey guys, due to the lack of a right handed bass, the sections with no guitars playing looked rather boring with me just standing there, that’s pretty much why I recorded myself playing along to the drum track even though the drums you hear are quite obviously the synthesized ones ;) This was probably my biggest cloning fail as well due to my mother who slightly knocked the camera when she interupted my recording!! D: but oh well, its the music your here for. Enjoy!

Due to the massive volume of messages I get in my inbox which are mostly spam, if you wish to contact me then please email me at jonobentley92@hotmail.co.uk

Hello there :) im Jono, and this is my channel for my solo project “Demigod”. In a nutshell, I am a guitar player who can cover a wide range of styles who loves to experiment with different ideas in music to produce unique music. If you decide to check out my videos then I highly recommend my recent ones. My older ones have more views but they are of a lesser quality and standard (you can tell which ones I mean by the whining in the video description haha!) I currently have my Grade 8 in guitar with the Trinity College of Music, and my Grade 5 music theory with the ABRSM. I am currently working towards my AVCM diploma :D . So where did the channel name come from? I didnt intend for it to be sorta rude honest! It just game out like that :3. But anyway, alot of the work I do on here relates to video game music or my arrangements of themes (mainly Nintendo if you couldnt guess from the name!) I do compose my own video game music to. If you would like me to compose some music for a game you are making you can contact me over youtube or at jonobentley92@hotmail.co.uk

I predominantly compose fantasy based video game music but I can cover most styles :) just let me know.

As well as all that, I do various covers in a variety of genres, mainly rock as that is my principal genre, although I will make the odd classical video and maybe some other videos such as jazz and blues, who knows :O you will have to subscribe to find out!
