This is my second version off the guitar solo I'm doing with my friend HAMIN from the Republic of IRAN! Met him on soundcloud. He had evidently been following my work for several years on soundcloud so he knew who I was when I emailed him and asked if if he'd like to collab! You never know who is listening to your stuff! To wit, this is the second version f the solo. It' very "processed" and FX heavy as it's very Industrial Djenty. Please let me know what you think It's hard to get a response typically on posts like this for some reason, as an instructor, but hope springs eternal

If you are working on your bending, try to match the first bend I do in the solo. It's in the key of D so just move up to the 10th fret in a blues scale and bend the G see if you can match the tone. Use your entire hand. I've seen people really struggle with their vibrato of late. This can help. Todd This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Apr 24 2018, 06:56 PM |

This is a collaboration track with a band called ANTI-M based in LosAngeles. They have been making music for nearly more than two decades. They were a part of the new wave scene in L.A. This is a cover version of "VOICES CARRY" by Til Tuesday. I"m playing guitar on this one. Please let me know what you think!

Besides our jam on YouTube and the GMC collabs I don't think I've made any collaborations with anyone

Egad!! Given how freaking good you are on the instrument, I think it's a flat out crime not to share your ability with the interwebs via collabing. I often reach out to bands that i find on youtube or facebook who I just run across and happen to like. If I like their sound, I'll usually contact them and just ask if they want to collab on a song or if they need a guitar lead etc. Every time it's a bit different. With Alexa, (from Germany) she was using software guitars during writing so I replaced the software guitar rythm tracks with real guitar and then put a lead on it. With Darkness Light (Also German) I used my toy guitar controller for the 12 string accoustic bits (midi 12 string patch in Logic) and then just played my lead bit. The song was based on one of my compositions which I'd been working on for years. With ANTI-M (Los Angeles) I started by offering a mastering pass on some of their old tracks as I liked the retro vibe. Next thing I know I'm playing bass, rythm and lead on their next album on several tracks. With Hamin (Iran) I found him on soundcloud and he already knew my playing from soundcloud so we went from there. It's a great way to find a good reason to play on days when one might not feel like it. Knowing I have a track that needs me often motivates me to play even on off days. Everyone has off days, having a project with roughly defined deadlines can be a good thing Tod Yeah, I should probably try and find some people online that could use a guitar player. I know there's a website where people look for help with their projects, but I forgot the name of the site now. Just found the site now: It's www.kompoz.com I was thinking of. There are probably more like that. This post has been edited by Caelumamittendum: Sep 11 2019, 01:03 PM |
