Destructive Feedback
Man, am I depressed this week. And there's only one thing that never fails to cheer me up, at least for a little while: electric guitar feedback.
I've posted my very first iMix, and it's called Constructive Feedback (iTunes link). I tried to select tracks that featured some tasty squealing feedback in the actual 30-second clip, but I couldn't leave out "Magic Carpet Ride." There's some mic feedback too, but as a feedback "purist" I avoided EBow-generated sustain and heavily compressed harmonics that may, to the untrained ear, sound like feedback.
Sadly, the iTunes store is still lacking in many areas, so no "Rhinocerous" (Smashing Pumpkins), no "Metal Machine Music" (Lou Reed), no Ultra Vivid Scene, very little Johnny Marr.
Your feedback welcome.
