Prince’s Pedalboard Around 2012

The other day, one of our interns tragically spelled "pedals" with a "t" - guitar "petals" - which is actually kind of cute, since our beloved stompboxes do, in a way, look like colorful (square) petals. For fun, I Googled "petal shaped pedalboard" and this image popped up. A sense…Click on the title for more

Sharkmuffin’s Pedals & Creative Process

NYC-based Sharkmuffin creates punchy garage rock wrapped in a fuzzy, '60s cool that is at once feminine and fearless.

Field Mouse – Q&A about Pedals and the Creative Process

We have both watched each episode of Futurama (Season 1-5) at least 100 times each. So think about that. Really think about what a commitment to TV that is. What’s been inspiring your latest album, and why is it entitled "Episodic"? There was a lot of stuff that had happened…Click on the title for more

New Pedal: Fuzzrocious Blast Furnace Gated Fuzz

We missed this new release by Fuzzrocious from a few weeks ago, but lateness is a minor sin in the world of rock'n'roll! The Blast Furnace Gated Fuzz is, quite peculiarly, a collaboration with Lehigh Mining & Navigation, an advertising/public relations group based out of Bethlehem, PA. No mention about whether the company has…Click on the title for more

Electro-Harmonix Platform Stereo Compressor/Limiter

NYC's Electro Harmonix just unveiled a new studio quality compressor named Platform. It's presented as a Stereo Compressor/Limiter, but you can tell from the knobs' descriptions that it does a lot more than that - the video intro actually says it can be used for any instruments, including on a drums stereo…Click on the title for more

Out of Boston comes a very interesting stompbox manufacturer called Electronic Audio Experiments, whose effects have already found a spot in boards of established, edgy bands like The World is a Beautiful Place... and Foxing, among others.
