Hey Dudes and Dudettes - I bring you my new video collab, inspired by that masterpiece of gaming known as Skyrim

 Dragonborn.mp3 ( 2.18MB ) : 529


With guitar melodies:

 Dragonborn_with_lead_melody.mp3 ( 787.28K ) : 422


GPro for guitar melodies:

 Dragonborn_Lead_Melodies.gp5 ( 2.86K ) : 247


Ok, time for some info ! The track is made up of 2 sections.

Section 1 is just a repeating melody which you can choose to record or not. I've recorded 2 lead tracks, 1 low and 1 an octave higher. My aim is to leave this section as it is with melodies so if you want to record that melody on the guitar please do so and I will add it to the mix. Also, if you would like to figure out a harmony for it then feel free. Basically, this part is optional and is there to sound good and break up the solo sections.

Section 2 is where we're going to play our solos. The chord progression is Am, Em, Dm, Am, G - Am, Em, Dm, E, F, G. You can use the A minor scale over the whole thing and just alter it when you get to the E chord in the second run through. Hear you may want to use A Harmonic Minor / E Phrygian Dominant(Major)

What I will need from you is:

-Full mix of your takes for reference (this can can be mp3)
-Bare guitar tracks (this can be wav)
-Video footage (please leave audio with the video if you can)

Feel free to upload your takes in this thread for feedback and send the final tracks/video to me via Dropbox, Rapidshare etc..

Deadline is Friday 29th March !!

Hey Ben, love the idea and setup! Chord progression and backing sound really good too.

Count me in on this.

There is, of course, an opportunity for Ze German to try out a new outfit..........

Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 13 2013, 07:20 PM

I might use my old Dragon Slayer costume...

Excellent Ben.... now let us go forth and take no nonsense!

this is my take over the second track...

Broke my low e string on my parker getting the bending pitch right for the first 2 bends...hahhahaa

We should have next collab of Red Dead Redemption or assassins creed...taht would awesome...

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 14 2013, 10:23 AM

That is amazing !!

When you guys have some takes, just send 'em over to me at my place in Whiterun. Chances are I'm either skulking about in Riften or out with Aeola the Huntress, kicking some ass, so I'll get to them first chance I get



Welcome to the collab !

Is there any chance you could compose something for the second part with the acoustic guitars ? I'm trying to leave the heavier main section as it is, with jut some guitar harmonies happening

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Mar 14 2013, 10:46 AM

You're doing gaming now, instead of doing teaching at GMC!!

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 14 2013, 03:08 PM

LOL!!!

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 14 2013, 07:05 PM

Ben, remind me, can you use a .m4v video file?

Posted by: Dieterle Mar 14 2013, 08:51 PM

Hail Ben !

Her some record idea

Yes, pretty sure they're ok



Yo, Dieter !! Wow, there's some brilliant melody lines in there and possibly the nicest tone I've heard from you yet - well done

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 14 2013, 10:59 PM

Here's my effort. Looking forward to the rest of the takes. Have a good one guys!

Posted by: enlo22 Mar 15 2013, 09:24 AM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M22-GYQRqoQ here's my take, ben i have no idea how to send you the wav files!! or video either.


ok nvm i figured it out hahah

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Mar 15 2013, 10:24 AM

What a playin' Greg!! You should be a teacher here!!

Posted by: sammetal92 Mar 15 2013, 10:44 AM

I like how you look at the camera in the end like "Its over already?" But great take



Awesome! Mind if I ask you how you achieved that tone? I love it



Killer take, as always

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 15 2013, 10:49 AM

Hell yeah, what a classic take from the Greg Man !!



Great take - glad to have you onboard for this !

Posted by: Dieterle Mar 15 2013, 12:41 PM

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 15 2013, 01:36 PM

That's what I'm talkin about right there.... Dieter, your determination is shining through my friend. Ben nailed it, you have some excellent and tasteful melody here...... And that tone is killer! Excellent job sir!

I just looked up "Bad A$$" and found your video Greg! That was very nice indeed.




That was really a cool bit of work there mate! Nicely played!

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 15 2013, 02:17 PM

Hey Slav, really appreciate it man.

Sammetal92, thanks man. For my tone I use Guitar Rig 3. I have a bank with 4 patches that I pretty much exclusively use. If you have GR I'd be glad to send it over to you.



Thanks Ben. Good to be back in the mix of things.


Mroberts70, hahaha, thanks a lot man. I really appreciate it.

Posted by: sammetal92 Mar 15 2013, 03:33 PM

I have guitar rig 4, I don't know if GR3 patches would load on GR4 but send it to me and I'll see what I can do, and thanks!

Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 15 2013, 03:38 PM

They will!

And Greg, while you're at it...could you send the presets to me as well?
Awesome take, by the way!

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 15 2013, 04:44 PM

Messages incoming to both of you guys!

Posted by: sammetal92 Mar 15 2013, 07:57 PM

Awesome!



Thanks loads!

First idea

https://soundcloud.com/mroberts70/dragonborn-collab-roberts...

This recording is kinda crap, so I'll prolly redo, but it's an idea...

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 16 2013, 12:01 PM

Yo Mark, this works ! Love the whammy and the ..err.. whammy !!

Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 16 2013, 04:52 PM

Here is my take!

Insane takes you know, insane in a good way

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 16 2013, 07:17 PM

Epic take from Ze German !! I was waiting to see if C***y T***n would somehow make an appearance but I guess that sometimes there comes a backing track that demands nothing but the utmost respect

Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 16 2013, 07:27 PM

Yeah, I wanted to surprise you this time

And show some respect since you composed this after having cheese on toast for breakfast.

Hier ist ze video:

Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 16 2013, 09:23 PM

Done zat now!

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 16 2013, 10:56 PM

So it's too much whammy?

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 17 2013, 10:09 AM

No I meant the whammy pedal.. and the whammy bar !

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 17 2013, 05:33 PM

Oh, so you meant like a.... double whammy?

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 17 2013, 08:49 PM

He's on fire !!!

Posted by: HungryForHeaven Mar 18 2013, 09:41 PM

Jammed up a rather exercisesque take.

Figured it's been a while since I landed on a 9th.

Posted by: DeGroot Mar 18 2013, 10:25 PM

woah, great stuff so far!

Here is my take.

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 18 2013, 11:00 PM

Oh hell yeah! Really solid stuff H4H and Degroot.

Posted by: enlo22 Mar 19 2013, 03:55 AM

here's my 2nd take since the first one I lost a file changed it a bit.
hopefully this one works! i guess that's what i get for drinking a playing on the last one lol

Woah! These last 4 guys just tore it apart.... Excellent guys!

H - Very melodic take indeed... if I had a hat, I'd take it off for that one.

Joe - That was some sweet tapping.... WOW! and some fitting strumming for this sort of back drop... nice touch sir!

Enlo - That was a bad ass run... very cool indeed!

Patrick - That was some damn fine tone there sir!! Nice take and excellent run to finish it up!

Bravo men!! The King will be pleased!

F*** ! That was good.



That sweep ! Very well played and the whammy outro is very tasteful



Permission granted ! Another epic take - great tone and hell of a run at the end, like Mark said !

Posted by: Patrik Berg Mar 19 2013, 10:30 AM

Haha that's my panic run that I use when I can't find anything else, it's pretty sloppy but thanks anyway guys

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 19 2013, 06:03 PM

Panic run as in everyone else panic and run the hell outta the way while you rip the guts out of that poor guitar! As for Sloppy!? sh1t, I've seen sloppy... hell even dated her once in high school.... that run was not sloppy.

Posted by: jstcrsn Mar 19 2013, 06:41 PM

dated yes, but did you marry her

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 19 2013, 06:57 PM

I said dated sloppy once, cause I don't like sloppy seconds.... hehe.. DOH!

Posted by: Patrik Berg Mar 20 2013, 02:17 AM

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I like where this conversation is going
Thanks though, I think Degroot, H4H, Greg and enlo22 and everyone else too have done some awesome solos to this.
oh and sorry about the bare chested thing, I'd just come back from a morning run and was a bit stinky but I had a hankering to play the guitar so I just sat down and made up the solo
Can't wait to see the final video for this one

Posted by: mroberts70 Mar 20 2013, 03:16 AM

Oh yea.... everyone has some spectacular takes in this one for sure, but you seemed to kinda play that last run off a bit, but it was really good man.... and the bare chested thing... lol, I just figured you were going for the manly barbaric thing since this is based around a medieval setting.

Posted by: WeePee Mar 21 2013, 07:00 PM

Hey hey

Here's what I have come up so far...Vid files are coming on weekend

That sounds awesome WeePee, nice work

Posted by: Ulrik Mar 21 2013, 09:51 PM

I think I now master the intro riff/melody, so I'll try and get something more recorded and join in!

Posted by: gregc1 Mar 21 2013, 10:43 PM

Man this is getting absurdly good. The great takes just keep coming.

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 22 2013, 10:39 AM

Sounding awesome V-Master !!

Posted by: WeePee Mar 22 2013, 04:22 PM

Thanks Patrick B. and Ben
Your take and all others takes are superb too !!

Posted by: AK Rich Mar 23 2013, 08:29 AM

Hey gang! Fantastic job on this collab everyone! Great takes all around!
Here is my off the wall attempt at it I was basically improvising on the solo section of this take, just trying to get ideas and didn't have the video recording,and then decided to use it.
So... I had to try and learn, then replay what I had recorded in my DAW and play along with it to get the video recorded. And then I couldn't quite play it exactly the same way before I ran out of time to work on it so it looks kinda funny in the video, the timing is a little different here and there. Anyway, here it is.Thanks Ben! Glad to see you putting up another great collab backing man!

Nice one AK !

Here's my youtube video.

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 23 2013, 03:24 PM

Great work, Rich !! As for miming to a pre recorded take, man I know that feeling. It's hard to decipher something you played on the spur of the moment and then harder still to replicate it on camera ! But you did it fine

Posted by: Patrik Berg Mar 23 2013, 04:02 PM

Beautiful, just beautiful



Omg, you guys are awesome

Posted by: HungryForHeaven Mar 23 2013, 04:30 PM

Just added the video.

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 24 2013, 10:38 AM

Excellent.. cheers H !

I'll need the bare guitar track too - just noticed I didn't have it.

Posted by: AK Rich Mar 25 2013, 04:53 AM

Thanks alot you guys! Man! All you people are really killin' it on this collab! This one is going to turn out great! You guys are rippin it up!

Posted by: HungryForHeaven Mar 25 2013, 08:35 AM

I'll post my solo track later.

All the takes so far are really great. I think my personal fave is Greg's tasty bluesy melody.

Posted by: AK Rich Mar 25 2013, 06:13 PM

My fav would have to be yours Hungry, I especially like the way you ended it. Good stuff man!

I tried to keep the harmonies as creepy as possible

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 28 2013, 09:08 PM

Hey Sam this rocks ! I think the melody was really good and those harmonies were really inventive. Great result !!

Posted by: sammetal92 Mar 28 2013, 09:24 PM

Sure, no worries !



Thanks H !

Posted by: Ulrik Mar 29 2013, 03:29 PM

Ok, here is what I cooked today.

I'll try and make the video really soon, but I have to take a break now.


Edit: Now with video (sorry for the bad quality with th light and all)

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Mar 29 2013, 06:10 PM

Thank You Ben Master. Apparently One wise man once said "Take No Prisoners - Take no shit "

Here's the video i recorded for you!

Posted by: MossRoller Mar 29 2013, 08:13 PM

So, are beginner takes welcome?
Ran out of time but was able to put this together.
If it's too late, that's fine, but some feedback would still be appreciated.

Btw, this thread got me to load up Skyrim, and, well, now you know why
it took me so long to get it done.

Posted by: Ben Higgins Mar 29 2013, 08:41 PM

Glad to have you aboard Ulrik ! Beautiful solo, I really love that lick at 0:36 !



Indeed - very true !!!

Thanks for your vid !



An honour to welcome you to the warrior's table and your take is accepted with power and steel

Really tasteful and I love the vid !!

Posted by: Ben Higgins Apr 5 2013, 09:53 AM

Well done and thank you to everybody who participated in this collab - you all rule ! I shall follow up with feedback soon

Posted by: Gitarrero Apr 5 2013, 12:10 PM

Awesomeness!

Thank you, the finish ninja and the german guy with a hat and a monkey for this collab

And all the guys that participated of course!

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Apr 5 2013, 12:50 PM

I've watched this collab 4 times in a row, and must say everybody did a good job.
Ben's ending solo's amazing!! U maniac!!
And the guy who did mix did a pretty good job this time! I like the way how each take emerges into another, while alltogether forming an outstanding unity !

Posted by: HungryForHeaven Apr 5 2013, 01:49 PM

Too cool!

Posted by: sammetal92 Apr 5 2013, 04:55 PM

Amazing! Played like true Dovahs!

Posted by: Ulrik Apr 5 2013, 05:03 PM

Great Collab, but I not sure I like the full stop at the end.

I think I could have used a bit more time for perfecting my own take, but glad to be in.

Posted by: gregc1 Apr 5 2013, 05:31 PM

Hot damn! That has to be up there as one of the best GMC collabs yet.

Tip my cap to Ben and great takes from everybody!

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Apr 5 2013, 07:17 PM

Hey Greg, how much have you paid to be featured in a preview of this video??

Your take was kick-ass !!

Posted by: Ben Higgins Apr 5 2013, 07:17 PM

Feedback :

DeGroot - Fantastic take my friend. Totally melodic. Those octave chords are a nice surprise to the listener too as they build tension and they're always a good way of outlining a strong, memorable melody.

Dieter - It's nice to see you growing as a guitar player D-Man. You've got a good, thick tone which will serve you well as you improve even further. Try to time certain notes so they land on a strong beat. Make everything sound decisive as your takes can sound a bit 'meandering' at times . Concentrating on building melodies with strong timing will counteract the 'meandering' sound and make your solos even better !

Patrik - Brilliant opening lick to your solo.. really grabs the listener's attention ! The rest of it is just as good, with strong melody lines and no unneeded notes. The fast run could be tighter as you've already alluded to but the composition itself is great. Well done !

Enlo - Again, like Patrik, you build a nice melodic piece. That sweep is devastatingly good too. After that, there's a note that sounds out of place to me (like a major scale instead of a minor?) and the end legato-ish run sounds a bit messy.. but that's my only criticisms as the rest of it is very strong. The whammy bar vibrato at the end is a great choice.. more stuff like this please !

Ulrik - A really controlled solo here. It shows great restraint and patience. Instead of adding too many notes you've concentrated only on serving the song with melody (Man, I've used that word so many times already) and nothing sounds out of place. Brilliant contribution !

Greg - Well we all know that Greg never turns in any tasty takes with good melody at all..................... NOT ! Man, this is another high carat gold offering from you and I'm knocked off my feet as always. Just staggeringly good ! I'll leave it at that before your head gets too big......

H4H - Hell yeah, a classic take from the Viking with the wristbands made from rabid wolves that died by his mighty hand. That opening group of phrases is just pure gold. One of my fave licks from the whole collab. It was stuck in my head for ages. In fact the whole thing is great. I think I'll leave it there. It's kind of a shame that I put your take where it is because the 9th at the end worked better going back into the main theme but oh well.. it still rocks !

MossRoller - Are you the same MossRoller that started with my Guitar Bushido way back in the mists of time ? It can't be ! What have you done with him ? Imposter ! Seriously, I'm totally impressed at your composition of this solo. It's got it all. Melody, variation, enough repetition to establish a theme but not so it gets boring. Bending, vibrato.. and that descending lick at 5:01 is sophisticated stuff. Triumphant offering from the Mississippi Master

Sam - I love the way you open this solo. The melody itself is great but what makes it even cooler is the fact that you begin playing at the end of the previous bar. Things like this make a lot of difference towards making a player sound more experienced because it shows you don't have to wait until each bar comes round to know your place. It also ties things together nicely and makes it flow, whereas always starting and stopping at the start/end of a bar can make it sound like a bunch of exercises put together. Great tone too. I would offer the same advice I offered Dieter. Try to let your melodies lock into the beat a bit more. It's great that you have a relaxed, flowing feel but you need to ally this to a strong sense of timing your melodies and then you'll be unstoppable !

WeePee - Like Ulrik, this is a very restrained and controlled take from you. I was almost waiting for some outrageous moment like a spider jumping out of the screen or something but you kept it nice and respectful It works well. That harmony is also a nice touch and the ending is cool !

AK Rich - The harmonies to the main theme are a great touch, adding a heroic 80's sound that was greatly welcomed ! I really love this slippery whammy take. This take was ad-libbed if I'm correct ? I can't criticise too much if it was ad-libbed but if it were a composed take I'd get those bends a bit more under control but that's me only note. Nice work !

Gitarrero - Christian comes along to remind us that, no matter how good something is done, there is always a German who can come along and do it better ! If we're going to do a Dragonborn Collab then there's damn well going to be a dragon !! Am I right ? This is why we love you, dude !!! The solo's good too with great timing and melody (the M word again !). I think this collab brought out a mature, reflective melodic side to everybody.

And yet......

Slavenko - The Slav Man comes along and tears the collab a new exit hole ! I like your approach of a lower harmony for the main theme. There's a couple of notes which are slightly out by a semitone but, forgetting those for a second, it works brilliantly. The rest of the solo is pure attitude, no holds barred. Your choice of scales is interesting. It's not what I would pick but you obviously hear things differently to me. I grabbed my guitar and worked out that your using both the E Minor Pentatonic and C# Pentatonic. It gives bit of an 'outside' sound to things as the song is mainly in A Minor but it's so crazy that I think it kind of works. It's so audacious that you can't ignore it. It doesn't sound like 'Oh he made a mistake' because you obviously meant to play it. You nutter !

Well done to everyone. This and the Schwarzenegger Collab have been the best in my opinion. They've been my favourite to play, edit and I think they've received some of your best ever efforts ! As always, it's an honour to have served with you




Now how the hell am I ever going to top this ? What are Gitarrero and WeePee going to expect next ???

Posted by: Dieterle Apr 5 2013, 08:33 PM

i really like this COLLAB !

Posted by: Sensible Jones Apr 5 2013, 08:41 PM

Now I wish I had known what Skyrim was!!!!
Epic job everybody, seriously epic!!!!
Well done!!!!

Posted by: DeGroot Apr 5 2013, 08:52 PM

One of the best collabs yet! Epic and melodic all the way through. Now I need to check out what Skyrim is too. Judging from Sam's video preview it looks like my kind of game.

Fantastic takes everyone and thanks Ben for putting it all together!

Posted by: gregc1 Apr 5 2013, 08:54 PM

Haha thanks Slav, I usually send Ben a box of fritters around collab time to make sure I get my picture up front.

Ben, thank you for the very kind words sir.

Posted by: sammetal92 Apr 5 2013, 09:14 PM

Thanks for such a detailed insight, Ben I thought I needed some tightening in the melodies, but you'll see improvement in the next collab

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Apr 5 2013, 10:03 PM

Thanks Ben, u left me speachless, i'm flattered because never thought of that i would inspire you to play something in "my style" Yeah, it's a bit odd, but i just played what suited nice to my ear, and forgot the regular rules and basis...
Hope to serve you again in some collab

Posted by: Headbanger Apr 5 2013, 11:55 PM

Great collab...congrats to everyone who played!

Posted by: AK Rich Apr 6 2013, 04:23 AM

Hey Ben! You have done it again my friend! Another great collab! Glad you like the harmony over the intro and the tremolo action.
I definately see what you mean about those bends though,I kind of jacked up the arpeggio at the begging of the solo too. I'll have to chalk it up to lack of practice and bending has definately been an issue with me lately since I havent been able to pick up the guitar nearly as much as I would like. It sucks since I sooo love to bend
I'll pay extra attention to that the next time around, I promise Great work everyone! And I am glad to see some new players taking part too! Cheers everyone!

I just played slow stuff which worked for this one. The harmony part was "borrowed" from Zelda game. I think Saria's song was the one.
And the chromatic run at the end was used in another collab too

Thank you very much!

Since I don't have the crazy shredding skills as most of the other guys, I tried to become the guy who is famous for his videos

I seriously don't think you can ever top this...so with tears in my eyes I will let you leave GMC now, thank you again for such a great collab and for all the joy you brought each and every one of us. It has been an honour learning from you. Take care! You don't have to fear german or finnish attacks on facebook or in real life anymore, no more blackmailing, no more weird songs on your wall.









Hahaha, as if!!!

Better prepare something new...my friends and I might demand something soon.

Very soon.
