That little jam from 10:50, to around 13:19 is just absolutely amazing! 🙏❤ It makes me think about everything that happened with it back in 1978, just right after being fully built and finished there was a refenderum that i personally think should've taken place *BEFORE* construction even began on it. That refenderum basically made it illegal to construct these types of power plants in Austria, and that's what that amazing jam makes me think about, the history of this specific nuclear power plant.

The way the reverb starts to bloom over your softened playing at 12:17 is so gorgeous.

1 second ago I can’t sleep. It’s incredibly windy out. There are unsettling sounds because of it. Was feeling angry thinking on the past. My neighbors spot light came on at an unusual time I walked into my room almost like they were waiting for me to and that just added to the storm inside my soul reflecting the weather outside. Then I came across this and for a moment, I let it all go because as a guitarist I heard something I could appreciate concerning a sound quality. Additionally, you always add to it with the melodic way you play. Been watching since early on and just wanted to say thanks for this

This is so much cooler than i thought it was going to be. Even though there is no sound in space, this makes me think of cruising amongst the stars

What a great sound. There are so many songs that would sound fantastic with that complicated reverb. I am now retired from working at nuclear plants in Canada over the last 40 years. Some of my favourite memories are singing with a similar echo in some huge spaces in accessible areas. With a long enough delay, you can generate two and three pitches to make chords. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Not unnoticed is your choice of a Strat. Perfect for that space. I was secretly hoping you’d do some surf guitar but I wasn’t disappointed with the beautiful sounds you created.

Imagine walking outside and hearing this beautiful heavenly sound coming from your Nuclear Power Plant

Can you imagine what Pink Floyd could have come up with if they had access to a place like this back in the 70's.. now THAT would have been worth listening to.

What a very pleasant and sometimes very eerie sound of distant music that is so nostalgic and yet feeling dread because on how far and long the sustain of reverb become that makes you think sometimes that things come and go and those gone are really long gone to the point of having a crisis over your head. Sounds of a distant memory that has passed for years that you wanna reminisce about and yet you feel sad and feel the longing of something from you a long time ago. It's funny when you listen to this according to what states you are in really changes how you describe the sound you perceive.
