Tera Melos – Untitled

"My first cool pedal was the DOD DFX9 Digital Delay pedal. Very digital. I was probably twelve years old and my friend's older brother had this pedal, a digital delay DFX9... he let me borrow it for a like a night or something and I remember fartin' around with it and being like 'Woah, this is weird. It kinda sounds like U2.' It was my very first, like, pedal that I figured out like 'Oh, what does that mean when it like records a small chunk of it?' and then you could mess with it. So, one thing that you could do with this pedal: loop it. That was pretty, like, mind-blowing for a twelve-year-old. (...) Well fast forward probably about, let's see, maybe fifteen years, I start my band Tera Melos and it's kinda like weird, freaky music or whatever. So, I pull out this pedal. So this would be the origin of a very early Tera Melos song ["Melody 3"] from like, many many years ago."

"My second cool pedal was this Boss Super Phaser. My dad and I went to the Guitar Center in Hollywood and, y'know, I was probably just like checkin' out what they have or whatever, and I was like 'Oh, green one! Cool!' Y'know, I'm like, I don't know, I don't really think that's a cool sound now. Like, I still back the [DOD DFX9] digital delay, but the phaser, I'm like 'Man, I don't know about...'"
