It is a bit weird but I always felt I was mostly influenced by oldies and evergreen music. 50s and 60s era.
I grew up listening to Elvis and especially the Beatles as well as other artists of the era. I didn't listen to 90s music, rather exploring "history" of rock n roll and being totally fascinated with it. I never really got to play that kind of music, but I always had it at the back of my head as some kind of benchmark or something I was aiming for or envisioning when composing. For example that kind of strong vocal melody (Beatles like) was always a benchmark for a vocal melody I'd consider great. BTW - amazing playing in that video Darius! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

As jstcrsn notes - most of us are drawn to the music we grew up listening to and into our early adult life. And/or what made us want to play music.
The period you were born into has a tremendous effect on how you 'hear' music (and view art in general - books, movies, etc.). I was talking about this recently with a couple of friends. One guy about 10 years older than me mentioned how bands like Cream and the Yardbirds completely changed how you can make 'pop' music. For me, being born right into that time and hearing pop music with the influences of Cream/Yardbirds already in it - I think it's totally normal and natural. I understand intellectually that yes, they were very influential and revolutionary but it just sounds like 60s pop/rock to me. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
