MYTHRO

Jazzy boom bap. Live guitar. Melbourne.

Jean-Luc Alder plays reverbed guitar over dusty drums and deep bass, live, first take. What you hear is close to how it began.

About

First takes only

MYTHRO is the instrumental boom-bap project of Melbourne guitarist Jean-Luc Alder. The tracks pair dusty drums and deep bass with echo-dripped guitar lines.

Every guitar take is a first take, played straight over the beat with minimal editing. The mistakes stay in. That is the whole point.

“what you hear is close to how it began.”

Media samples surface as philosophical asides or playful detours, set against the live, first-take guitar. The words plant the idea; the playing is the practice.
