  • Hi GMCers!

    Welcome to my new Latino lesson. This genre has always been interesting to me thanks for is rich rhythms and how every harmony, as well as simple ones like in this case, can be very colorful and therefore much more interesting. A simple, minor key progression may not allow some major experiments with scales and therefore we are going to use only two scales - Pentatonic minor scale and Natural minor scale. By choosing the right tone and the right phrase at the right time, I repeat, any simple and monotonous progression can sound a lot better!

    Equipment : Sonar8 DAW, Amplitube3 guitar plugin

    Tempo : 110 bpm
