a guitar, an old PC, a microphone & a speaker


In my attempt to raise awareness of great music, I would like to introduce something quite different from my previous post. This song, ‘Dusty’ is taken from the album ‘Handwriting’ (2003) by Khonnor a.k.a. Connor Kirby-Long, a 23-year-old American DIY musician. This song might not be his best one, but you’ll get the idea. It’s quite lo-fi, using “only an old PC, a microphone from a ‘Learn Japanese’ boxset and a single low quality PC speaker”, but the result is quite magical. Enjoy, it might very well change your life..
