I hope you've gotten a lot of new ideas and inspiration from this tutorial. There are two sides to a topic like this: understanding what you hear and using it for yourself. Understanding what you hear means that when you listen to these records from now on, hopefully you'll recognize the techniques and understand how these sounds are created.

But that's only half the battle; something you can do without a musical bone in your body. The real art is in using these tricks and techniques to create your own art. Write your own songs with these new sounds and tricks or use them in someone else's song, if it fits. There is already a David Gilmour, so take as much as you can from him and use it in your own way!
