For our fifth release we bring you this solo performance with guitar and effects from Canadian musician Aidan Baker (of Nadja and Arc). Baker improvises subtle and warm drones in this recording of his debut London show in the Flea Pit 2007.

I can't believe nadja plays without amplifiers... i forgot about that little factoid. Total wall-of-sound music made with guitar/bass run thru FX and a small mixer. Crazy! Rad show, tho! Subtle ambient & Doom Metal... blended.

you sure about that ml? when i saw them they had three amps.. one for guitar and two for bass.. at least that's what it looked/sounded like.. they did have the mixer and effects setup, but i could swear i saw and heard amps, rather than the house PA.
i will ask him and find out :D

If they had amps they were well hidden, and most of the sound was coming from the house PA.
I only give the show a B+ because they set up on the stage rather than around the stripper pole that was above the big fishtank.

Grrr...sad I missed him.
Yeah, isn't there that picture somewhere that shows Aidan's "pedalboard" - it's like 4 pedals ziptied to a 2x4?
