Great Jose, glad to see you enter. May take a bit to process. Say's "access denied". Did the same with Muris' entry too. Good luck man and I'll certainly give you a vote!

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Jan 18 2009, 11:58 PM

Hey mate, it says that I'm unauthorized to watch it

Posted by: lcsdds Jan 19 2009, 12:03 AM

Jose,
Is there anyway you could upload it to youtube? I don't know if I can wait until it is available through the GI website. Glad to see you entered, you are way too talented to be sitting on the sidelines!!

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 19 2009, 12:04 AM

Don't know what else I have to do, I can see it, but I guess you guys can watch the youtube video in the meantime while I figure it out

I'm still waiting for it to be processed but I'm not sure how long I will be able to

Glad you've entered.


EDIT: Watched it twice right now. Incredible...

EDIT2: It's so funky and groovy yet there's a trace of sadness and tragedy in it... at least for me...

Posted by: skennington Jan 19 2009, 12:15 AM

WOW Jose, I loved that, very well put together.. I can't wait to hear it without youtube's processing. Great work man!

Posted by: lcsdds Jan 19 2009, 12:21 AM

That was awesome Jose!! Great composition man!!

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 19 2009, 12:27 AM

Thanks guys, glad you liked it, didn't know if I should have tried with this one, or stick to metal, but I wanted to try something different.

Posted by: Muris Varajic Jan 19 2009, 12:34 AM

Amazing playing Jose, just saw youtube clip!!!!!!!!!

I'll be checking GI page and as soon your entry is up
you'll have few votes from me man, killer stuff, hat down.

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 19 2009, 01:46 AM

Thanks Muris, your entry was amazing and deserves winning?, what do you mean a few votes. you can vote more than once??

Did this happen to you too with your entry, did it take a while for it to be available?

Posted by: Muris Varajic Jan 19 2009, 01:56 AM

I'll make few more accounts.

Yeah, entry needs some time to be processed , no worries.

Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Jan 19 2009, 02:16 AM

Great video Jose ! I love the groove , also tapping part is very cool! Good luck in the competition!

Posted by: Mandos Jan 19 2009, 06:46 AM

Wonderful song Jose. Really groovy.

Posted by: David Wallimann Jan 19 2009, 01:11 PM

Jose, your entry is brilliant!
I love everything about it!
The 3 piece band idea is great, I always found it real hard to write like that. I always overdub...
I admire your track!
Good luck for the contest!

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Jan 19 2009, 01:14 PM

Wow Excellent Jose - melodic and impressive! Very good - looking forward to see what happens!

Posted by: ErikEklund Jan 19 2009, 01:18 PM

WOW, that was fantastic!!


Great jose!

Posted by: Dreamcatcher Jan 19 2009, 01:23 PM

Loved that entry very cool feel to it !!! Kudos

Posted by: Tolek Jan 19 2009, 01:24 PM

Wow, that was incredible. You always appeared in my eyes as the shred guy, but now I see another side of yours which is very positive, of course. It sound really awesome. I think that we have at least two finalists from GMC.

Vote N°2 is from me.

Posted by: Carlos Carrillo Jan 19 2009, 01:48 PM

Amazing playing Jose! You are a great composer!

Posted by: Emir Hot Jan 19 2009, 01:56 PM

Hey Jose, this sounds great. Awesome composition and playing

Posted by: Lian Gerbino Jan 19 2009, 01:58 PM

Posted by: berko Jan 19 2009, 02:02 PM

Vote 4 and 5 is from me! I'm so glad you you tried something new with this composition! I wish I could see you in the finals (with Muris ofc).

I just can't believe we have so many extremely talented and hard working guitarists here at GMC .. Well I knew ,, but just keep getting amazed Really cool entry Jose

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 19 2009, 02:11 PM

Thanks everyone, I am happy you guys have liked this, I was scared about entering with something like this, you know what they say, stick to what you do best.

Any more GMCers entering??

By the way the entry is up now

Posted by: Oxac Jan 19 2009, 09:40 PM

It was excellent Jose. I like that low output sound, really enables you to focus on dynamics which I really think that you succeeded in.

Posted by: Fran Jan 21 2009, 08:50 PM

Amazing entry Jose!, I just added it to GMC's http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/index.php/Competition_Central

Posted by: jdriver Jan 21 2009, 09:43 PM

I really like this song and I have to chime in here, the tapping is awesome, some of the most melodic and effective use of tapping I have heard. Got my vote.

Posted by: Magnum Jan 21 2009, 10:07 PM

Vote #83 Submitted.....

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 21 2009, 10:15 PM

Thanks!!, I have to find out what this is, never heard of it before, will click on the link right now



Thanks jdriver, glad you liked the tapping, the tapping idea was a melodic line that came to my mind, and in trying to play it I wanted to somehow harmonize it, only thing I could come up with was tapping like I did here, glad you feel this way about it.


Thanks Magnum for the support, I really appreciate it

Posted by: TakeJoy Jan 22 2009, 03:31 AM

Sorry Jose, just getting around to voting...Done! Like I said, great playing man! I noticed your brother's comment on Muris' entry, is he planning on entering as well?

Posted by: Col Roberts Jan 22 2009, 06:09 AM

Voted. Love your playing Jose. Good luck.

Posted by: Jose Mena Jan 22 2009, 02:06 PM

Thanks TakeJoy, greatly appreciated


Thanks g-forcelover, I guess it would be cool for the ones that are on contests, but the site is about guitar lessons, not sure if Kris would do that



Gracias por tu voto Andres,



Thanks for the vote, as far as my brother I told him to enter, he has a really cool tune, he told me that probably for heat 3.



Thanks Col Roberts, glad you enjoyed it

Posted by: Jose Mena Feb 4 2009, 10:38 PM
