Since its creation just four years ago, the original stompbox Logarhythm has raised eyebrows around the globe by augmenting the performances of countless instrumentalists, solo artists and bands, by simply connecting to the PA or directly to a recording desk via its own standard ¼” output jack socket.
Filmed a promo piece on Haldon Hill for Jules last sunday, hanging out of a car with my Canon 5DmkII.
Created this separate edit with just the bike footage.
Will also place clips in my quite overdue show reel!
Edited and graded with Adobe Premier Pro and MB Looks.
Used a fairly high shutter speed, and the Cinestyle colour profile.

Sian Winstanley – Soprano, Stephen Gordon – Guitar(s).
Sian and Stephen’s debut performance at the Brecon Baroque Festival in 2011 was greeted with a rapturous reception from the audience and ecstatic reviews.
‘beautifully clean and focussed tone with perfect intonation, well articulated runs, effective ornamentation…… a consummate performer with an engaging stage presence……beautiful low and soto voce endings, retaining both tone and timbre throughout – not easy to do.
‘Stephen Gordon moved away from the Shakespearian theme with guitar solos by Sanz and Murcia, like Sian, managing an exquisite fade into silence whilst retaining the tone of his guitar.’
Early Music Review
Sian and Stephen offer programmes of song with guitar accompaniment from early 17th century to 20th century. Ideally suited for intimate settings, this duo offers a wide range of repertoire from Purcell to Villa Lobos with Stephen providing accompaniment on baroque, 19th century and modern classical guitars.
