I used a looper to loop riffs then play synth or bass leads over the loops. A lot of fun. We wrote all of our music in jam sessions, just found a jam we liked and built on it until it was a song. But we just broke up 2 weeks ago after 3 years of playing out.

I'm currently putting together a new band with the same mentality of the last, to have the music evolve from jams, but this time there will be at least 4 musicians adding to the tunes.

that was interesting, i would like to hear whatever you come up with... keep me/us updated!!

by the way, i just realised we have "similar" effects... are you happy with digitech´s digidelay?? i was going to bet on this, but im having second toughts...

noice rock with experimental influences, but highly arranged, not improvised at all.

I dig the OP's band / sound a lot (did not have to chance to check out all the other links)

Here is my little experimental/psychedelic/any genre I feel like playing project. Some of my stuff on here is REALLY out there, but other songs are more normal. Check out "Juicy Collins" for some bass wankery. Try "Pulse" and "Acid Lounge" for stuff more into the experimental category.

I used to. I had a pretty simple POD setup and everything. Then I got into Zep/Sabbath, and bands like Sleep/Om/Bongripper. Now Im more of a "stoner" guy, except that I'm sober. Most of the time.

My main group is Jam Theory (Check out the link in my signature), we play pure improv, meaning we just play, sometimes we'll pick a key to start on to make the beginnings of songs sound a little more "structured" but all in all we do the same as the OP as no guidelines are set. we try to incorporate as many different musicians as possible during jam sessions and gigs especially(we lost our old guitarist the day before a gig and played the gig with his replacement the next day who we had met, but never jammed with). It's the most fun I have ever had playing music. Any feedback would be great!!

The whole album flows from beginning to end in 'cosmological order' (track 1 = "The Beginning", and the album closer = "The End")..

That was... incredible!

edit: I would totally buy that CD if I could find it in a store around here. I really enjoyed the bass on "The End." Your tone reminds me of Justin Chancellor, is that what your were going for?

And here's some live Burgess Penguin from last night:

Cool thread, although a couple of years old.

I play in an experimental rockband called "Ansigt", but we havn't really got anything out yet.

Then there is my solo project "...and for such a long time", some of it are more plain folk, like the first song on my myspace, but some of it definitely fits into the experimental category: ...and for such a long time | Free Music, Tour Dates, Photos, Videos

I also played in a band called "Menfolk", which I guess you can categories as somewhat experimental too: http://menfolk.bandcamp.com/ , I play on the "Double Date" and "Are We Enemies" album.

[Audiophage]

I do from time to time. Sometimes I wear a labcoat while playing experimental music.

Old thread but glad someone brought it back up. Perfect style for my taste. I'll be posting samples soon and hope other post in this thread again. So far from some of the pages that still exist I like what I have heard.

You can hear some clips of our sessions on our myspace:

so, what else is out there?

I play in a trio,The Skid Row Clowns and that's exactly our format as per our drummers insistence.
