14 takes in all and the track is 5m 40s

First off apologies to Alex & Kjutte who both posted solo`s with backing only so I`ve mixed them in as best I could.

I wont comment too much just a couple of lines on each & remember the comments are only an opinion

MURIS

First up is Muris, awesome take as always, blistering speed with total precision ... I hate you not really ya know that aint true, thanks for taking part mate, an honour AWESOME!!!!!

Enucleation

A real toughy for me to mix in this one, your levels where all over the place throughout and I had to make a bit of a compromise in the end so apologies if some of your take is a little quiet. Some good ideas in there, I could hear that, but I think just some work on your tone and mixing of the other guitar parts and we`ll be able to hear them all a lot better, good job on the whole though

Mario

A nice start to your take, and some decent ideas developing afterwards as well, timing a little off in the middle but thats just practice and you finished strongly as well, nice one, well done

Tjchep

I think you struggled with this one a little, not a lot of time to really express yourself like you do so well with your strong vibrato, I really liked your opening, a little more attack on it and it would have sounded even better, I`m glad you gave it a shot, some practice on longer flowing runs with alternate picking and you`ll be flying through these like you do the others , great effort mate

Suprize

A solid take throughout mate, kept well within the limits, some vibrato work to get a little more life into the notes would improve your take, well done!

Vasilis

Nice nice nice, very nice! really strong from start to finish, liked your take a lot, lost your way slightly with timing slap bang in the middle but pulled it back and finished strongly, great job

Alex Lewis

well you gave me two takes with the backing but never mind, I mixed it in best I could, Nice take throughout I thought mate right after the tapping part you seemed to lose your way a little and then did a little egyptian style thing that seemed to come out of no where but on the whole you did a good job, thanks for joining in

Botoxfox

I always think you put in a strong take on the collabs you enter mate, personally I think your takes would sound totally outstanding if you work on your tone a little more, for me its a very harsh & thin sound, do you have lots of reverb on as well?? just my opinion, excellent job

Stickyfingers

Nice opening arpegios and great finish to your solo, the middle seemed a little lost if you know what I mean with no real direction and didnt match the start and end, apart from that a great effort, well done

Dexxter

The start of your solo was a little like Stickyfingers middle, seemed a little lost in comparison with the rest of your take which on the whole was very good, I thought the ending was brilliant! nice one

Siggum

thanks for joining in mate, I know metal/shred isnt really your bag, just gotta get your head down and go for it thanks mate, great effort & well done!

Leedbreak

Good to see you back around Jason! unmistakable style that you have, your kind of thing this lots of fast AP runs, I wasnt sure at first about the part towards the end that you did but when I was mixing it in it made more sense to me of what you where trying to do and I liked the idea, the timing of it was a little off but hey! thats one great thing you always seem to try and do, add a twist of Leedbreak in there which I think is great! thanks for joining mate,

Kjutte

Again apologies to you, you only gave me a solo with the backing only so I could only mix it in best I could, excellent start flying straight in tailed off slightly towards the end as if you`d ran out of ideas a little, but on the whole a nice job, thanks

Kaznie_NL

And finally my old chum Kaz never afraid to just go for it! I like that for effort you get full marks mate, still cutting those notes off a little short but a definate improvement from the last collab so a big well done! adding a touch of vibrato now too? great, just keep working the way you are and improvising as much as you can, it takes time which you have on your side, just keep working as hard as you do, great stuff!


and thats it, like I said I`ve not gone too deep into the comments and the comments I`ve made I hope no one is offended, they are just my opinion
this was just a little bit of fun to blow some cobwebs out of them headphones/amps etc and have a break from the normal practice routines. Thanks everyone for taking part.

Till next time all the best

Chris

[Enucleation]

Gah Yeah my take was pretty crazy tone/volume wise. I apologise, it was done on the first day I got a Pod so that may have been the cause of some of it, didn't really know a lot about what I was doing.


Thanks though.

Some cool takes man, rock on everyone.

[Tjchep]

Ahh, yes, have to work on my technique a bit before I can dive into metal and really feel comfortable with it..

thanks for the comments man.

Great collab.
