Very good idea! This one is the perfect track to practice this technique!

Man, this backing track is awesome! Just jammed 10 minutes along with it, I think I'm gonna record something pretty soon

wow, rocking solo man! going to follow this up
Posted by: JPBluestring Jun 9 2012, 02:00 PM
Thanks DeGroot,I'm glad you like it.
I need help to follow it espescially with the second part which I feel is not as strong. I was trying double strings and I messed up the timing. It needs to explode after the first part I think.
Looking forward for your take man!
Tks

You did a really good job! There is a part of the solo missing? I can help you with this track just let me know what you have troubles with!
Posted by: Yash Jun 9 2012, 06:12 PM
Alex, do I need to solo all over the track or only a part ?
Or solo all over and you'll select what fits best and then edit.

You can solo over the whole track if you want! Just do what feels right for you and have fun with it!
Posted by: DeGroot Jun 9 2012, 09:15 PM
Ok, just finished this one up. Great backing as always I'll send one without backing soon. http://soundcloud.com/degroot-2/rockin-collab-1
Posted by: JPBluestring Jun 9 2012, 10:01 PM
Man DeGroot that rocks! Great shot. I love it!.
Alex: here's another take with the second part of the solo. A bit better I think. You're the judge.

Thanks Alex
I am happy you like it.. I am usually very unsatisfied about my improvisation skills so hearing something good is nice Here is my take without the backing track (I am not posting the one with the backing track again).

Posted by: Sparrow Jun 14 2012, 10:01 PM
Here is a slightly different one with sound only
http://soundcloud.com/zack-sparrow/rock-collab-no-sound
the scratching at the beginning lines up with the last two beats of the drum count off so you can line it up with the background track
one
two
three (scratch scratch scratch scratch)
four (scratch scratch scratch scratch) something like that
Posted by: Opetholic Jun 14 2012, 10:15 PM
DeGroot, this solo is pretty good
it reminds me of something but I can't pin it down, maybe not just one thing but a combination of many things sometimes I feel like I am hearing Slash, other times some Queen, I am not sure but I like it..Posted by: Alex Feather Jun 15 2012, 08:00 AM

Sound and style

Is it necessary to post an MP3 or a vid would do ????
Posted by: Alex Feather Jun 15 2012, 10:43 PM
This is an audio collab so MP3 with and without backing track will work perfect!
Posted by: Yash Jun 16 2012, 06:10 AM
How do I record the audio ??????I just now how to record video of my playing.
PM me the details

Hi Alex,

Posted by: Alex Feather Jul 1 2012, 04:17 AM
The Rockin' Collab is done! Thank you all for participating!
You guys did an amazing job and I was very impressed with your solos!
Here is the final track!
http://soundcloud.com/alex-feather-akimov/rockin-collab
The first solo is played by JPBluestring
You did an amazing job! And I love your solo from the beginning till the end! There were a few wrong notes but I liked the energy and the feel! I would sugguest to turn a little down your distortion it will bring up more color in your playing and will add more dynamic!
Second solo played by bleez
Very nice playing! Reminded me of Slash a little bit! Very nice job! I like how you build up the melody developed the whole solo towards the end! I think it will be cool to hear higher range as well because it felt like you are staying in the same position! You can play the same thing octave higher! This little trick will help you to build up solos even better! Also if you will turn down gain it will improve building as well!
Third solo is played by DeGroot
Nicely done! Good playing nice build up! Very nice dynamic and timing was pretty good! Reminded me of Santana meets Brian May:) I think you did an amazing job on this one I have nothing to add! Keep it up!
Fourth Solo is played by Dieterle
Man you impressed me so much! I remember your playing a few months ago and what a big difference! I could hear an idea in your solo and a melody! You did a very very good job! My only suggestion will be is keep doing what you are doing cause you are on the right track!
Fifth solo is played by Opetholic
Very nicely build solo! I loved the melody and your ideas were amazing! Some notes were a little off but you did an incredible job! I would suggest to develop you solo a little slower by starting out very simple and build it up towards the end! Also turing down gain will help will make it even better!
Fifth solo is played by Sparrow
Very good playing nice melodies and ideas! I loved it! Watch out for your bends because some of them were off! You did a very nice development on this one! I think if you will turn down gain a little bit it will help you with your dynamic and will make your solos even more interesting and attention grabbing!
[bSixth solo is played by Opetholic[/b]

You all did an amazing job! I was very impressed and surprised! Thank you for joining this collab!
