isn't it some strange variation of flanged delay? I'll have to listen to it, but I remember it does have the coolest effect.

listening to the 11:09 length version off of the work.


Sounds like a mix of several effects.. I hear an octave pedal to get that double lead feel almost as if a synth or moog is playing the line too. Kind of like on most P-funk songs ex. flashlight . Maybe some chorus and a little flange with delay.


Great song..... so damn ambitious.
Music is the best...
