AXE NINJAS Ben and I are very proud to present our first collab tune "Second Chance". We recorded a video for the track and a 15 minute lesson at the end for you to get jamming to the backing. It's a pretty slow ballad in A minor and should be fairly easy for you to get rocking with. I am very excited about this - I haven't written a tune online with anybody since KMC Metal (me and GMC instructor Marcus Lavendell). Working with someone else does wonders for your inspiration and Ben is such a cool guy (+ I bet he eats three donuts per day and you couldn't even tell!!  ) We are working on yet a new tune in this very moment so I hope we will get to show you more stuff in the near future. Thanks for listening - we hope this will inspire you to get practicing and writing music! -------------------- I do not have any natural talent at all - you can beat me with hard work.
Check out my video lessons + Kris & Marcus collab KMC Metal. My latest songs: "Mittwoch", "A Loner", "Red Shot", "Brutal Bump", "Love Me" . Kris & Ben Collab: Second Chance, Shadow Of The Ninja |

The only reason Kris had his mouth open for so long in the video was that he was hoping I'd through a donut in there ! Sorry, no such luck Mr Dahl... I ate them all !
But Kris is right.. we are currently working on something that will hopefully kick lots and lots of rear end !  We hope you enjoy the video (and the tune of course)

Man I thought you were being thick headed, but now I understand that you purposely didn't give me any donuts  -------------------- I do not have any natural talent at all - you can beat me with hard work.

That is really cool stuff guys!
Kris, you gave us students a good lesson on how to win the attitude competition. Plus, I'm gonna go and get some Donuts right away...for me  Ben, I always wanted to tell you: Both my mom and my neighbour think you're really cute...One is 61, the other is 29...pick your favourite Christian -------------------- |

Its always great to see a new Kris video
 And Ben, I really liked that ascending 5ths lick, definitely going to incorporate that into my playing.
