Chris Layhe's Gear
TRAVELLING CHEST — in true Icicle Works fashion, something completely off the wall; almost a folk song, with a lyrical arrangement inspired by The Byrds' "John Riley", and replete with brushes and banjo...
IAN: "It's actually an Emulator sample, which we sequenced."
CHRIS L: "And the string bass is a Mirage Ensoniq sample. I shouldn't have said that..."
IAN: "It's well keyboardy that track, but like they're all acoustic samples – there's the upright bass, the banjo, there's a harmonium in there too. And there's an acoustic guitar..."
CHRIS S: "...triggered off the bass drum..."
IAN: "...which was an RX11. But there is real guitar on it too."
CHRIS L: "We can do it live, though. I just play it on an ordinary bass – not fretless. I don't think I could play one, I'd probably be out of tune a lot... I like to have a go, but you always end up sounding like Mick Karn, Pino Palladino... a dated sound."
