Hi Paal! Welcome to your Gab's Army thread!!
Could you please tell me a bit about you, your musical tastes, influences, strengths and weaknesses? I would need some videos or audios of you playing rhythm guitar, so please post your best material here. If you have some music or ideas of your own, also post them here. Also let me know how you think that I can help you and what are your expectations for our job. You can check the other Army's thread to discover the different modalities of this project. The principles of our Army are: + Improve your technique + Make music and solos + Have fun + Destroy the enemy (hahaha not really just kidding... ) This post has been edited by Gabriel Leopardi: Jul 25 2013, 02:43 PM -------------------- My lessons

For now, a Ukulele improvisation will have to do:
https://soundcloud.com/audiopaal/ukulelika-demo My stepdad gave a ukulele a while back. I learned four chords and recorded it with a microphone, improvising a melody part and recorded a contrabass in the background. All in all, pretty good for a few hours days work I haven't touched it since I'm afraid... |

Nice ukulele improvisation! I was wondering if you are able to post audio files here... Hehe, I was only joking. Young and fit as a fiddle Thanks mate, glad you liked it Yes, I can post audio files. I just cannot record new ones until sometime next week. The latest thing I recorded was last summer (time goes by fast..). I was in a hurry to get it finished before I went on vacation, so I didn't mix it properly, but it sounds pretty decent I think. It's a pop song. I'll post it here, so you can have a listen to my playing, and I'll post some more next week Here it is: With_You_Instrumental__nestenferdigmix_.mp3 ( 8.12MB ) Number of downloads: 98 |

It's a very tasty composition. I think that your rhythm is very good on this song. You said you want to learn new chords, progressions and ideas for pop and rock music and you said wrote "Th Beatles" as the first band on your list of favourites... I wonder, how many songs by them have you learnt and analysed? -------------------- My lessons

At some point I'd love to learn Stormbringer, by Deep Purple as well
Great riffs all over the place |

Ok! Let's start learning by ear one of these two songs and write here the structure, chord progressions, and why not your version. Which one you prefer to start: "Here comes the song" or "Stormbringer"?

I'd love to make my own version of both I'll have a look at them early next week and decide which one to start with. Do you want a direct cover, or should I make a cover version with my own twists and turns? This sounds great!! It doesn't necessary needs to be a direct cover if you prefer to give it a special production. But be sure that you can also play the whole piece by once, to use this also as a technique training. -------------------- My lessons

Or maybe you can change the meter. This is a reversion that I did many time ago, and it's one of my favorites (talking about my reversions).

You mean I can "change" it completely, like making a heavier or softer version of it?
