I dig your solo here but I listened again and I wanted to ask are you intentionally choosing notes that are off key/non root/dissonant for contrast/impact? I have noticed this in all of your solos that I've seen and I always assumed this was just your "style", incorporating external keys/notes, that are peripheral to the song and the melody and the scales at hand. But I have since not to take such things for granted. In one case in particular, I thought a student was playing "off beat" to create rythmic drama, only to find out he actually was not capable of playing on the beat at that point. So I wanted to ask you to make sure? Just curious really Todd QUOTE (Slavenko Erazer @ Oct 15 2013, 11:00 AM) Und Hier ist das Video!! und sword only file https://soundcloud.com/slavenko/kitana-jedi-solo You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Yes Todd, i chose them intentionally,i kinda dig dissonant tones to gain some diabolical wibe and scare the "non-true" metalheads off the court I find that it would be awesomely boring if we would play all the notes inside the scale over and over... That's why i dig some of the Thash/death bands , they can make a realy good wibe with some off key signatures... All the best. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Oct 23 2013, 09:57 AM	Instructor Posts: 13.792 Joined: 11-March 10 From: England	HERE IS THE FINAL RESULT !! Todd - Man, I'm loving those ultra fast 2 note per string penta licks. It's damn hard to play anything in straight 16th notes over this backing 'cause it's fast ! But you prove again why you've got the machine gun right hand !Notice how I let the end of your solo tail off into Hungry's.. the two make some kind of accidental harmony in 5ths or something... cool or what ? H4H - Very melodic, which is what I like to hear from the Mysterious Swede. I've got nothing to complain about here, man.. hell knows how you maanged to pull of that ascending picking run. You've either sold your soul to a man down at the cross roads or you've been practising..... Patrik - A very good and well controlled take. The sweeps are well timed, which can be a tricky thing when dealing with mid tempo arpeggios. It runs the risk of sounding too exercises-like but I think you just keep it on the right side of the line, especially with the harmonies at the end - great work ! Huargo - Love this video. I didn't notice until I was editing that your daughter sneezed right at the beginningof your solo - classic timing !! On to the solo.. really well thought out note choices.. the melody never becomes predictable, it keeps the listener interested. I think you could benefit from tightening up your right and left hand when it comes to picking runs but that's my only advice. Those sweeps at the end are brilliant. WeePee - Well, my Scando friend ! I like your tone and your heavy, mid paced vibrato.. it's becoming really recognisable now. Having The Hef appear suddenly was something of a shock.. not sure if was pleasant or not ??? Hah, just kidding, of course it was Always a pleasure to have the Terrible Two onboard ! Greg - as always, your takes are a mini masterclass in themselves of pacing and melody. Starting off with a blitz and then stopping the listener in their tracks with a hanging note and some taps - sublime ! I'll leave it there, you get enough praise as it is ! Gitarrero - what collab would be complete without a sexy German strutting his stuff in front of the cam.. wait, is it just me ?? It's just me isn't it ? Ok. Personal thoughts aside, this is another calssic from The Hef. I think you've taken my observations on board about avoiding meandering takes and you've put together a consice and clearly directed take which is nice to see. And what's that ?? It's the Finn again ??? I'm not sure whow much more of this I can take........ Slav - as always, you're not araid to cross the frontiers of taste and play the notes that no others dare to play ! We should have a phrase.. "Where Slavenko Dares". Your take reminds me in places of Kerry King mixed with Quorthon from Bathory. Love the Vai style whammy at the end. You've shown us you can do chaotic solos.. for the next collab it would nice to see you branching out and seeing how you deal with playing in 'normal' scales as well.. maybe mix it up and do both ? DeGroot - Excellent playing as susual DG. There's a mind blowing part as some point when you're doing the asccending picking run and then you inject that double speed legato bit in it as well. That's genius stuff right there... I think we all should try and learn from that !! Enjoying the Schenker bends at the end too ! Well gentlemen, what can I say ? It's been a pleasure to stand side by side with you in battle, swords drawn. We decimated the enenemy. Any remaining survivors have fled back to their land, carrying tales of men with impossible guitar skills and amazingly good looks. We have been victorious once again.
