Steve Reich - "Electric Counterpoint"

I recently put together some audition videos and I decided to tackle Steve Reich's 1987 piece "Electric Counterpoint" for 15 guitars (meant for 1 live guitar part and a prerecorded track of 12 more guitars and two bass guitars). All performed on a Kiesel Zeus ZM8 and recorded via the AxeFx II.

Patch uses the Deluxe Verb with an Ownhammer Deluxe Reverb IR. A little studio reverb and compression. Otherwise, that's it!

If you're not hip to Steve Reich, he basically invented looper pedals decades before looping was a thing. He started by messing with reel to reel tape loops and later wrote pieces like this with multiple parts repeating and phasing against each other.
