Kristofer Dahl14th May 2016I love this lesson concept Guido, it's a great showcase of how something complex sounding is evolved from a simple melody. I think a lot of people get caught in all the little tricks they see people do, and actually miss the melodic thread in their lines.
Guido Bungenstock14th May 2016Thx a lot, Kris. I thought it was just time to demonstrate How simple music could be. ;-)
playaxeman14th May 2016This give a good idea how to built a melody. Great concept.
hmm Kemper Profiling Amp: sounds very good: did you profile it yourself? Did you run the signal from the KPA straight into the Marshall Cab?
I think I will stick to my Hughes and Kettner Switchbalde 50 w for a while.

Hi Guys,
Welcome to my lesson No. 30
This is lesson is about the most important (and sometimes the most difficult) things in music:
How to develop a melody? Or in another words: How to bring a melody to life so it sounds more organic or human?
To demonstrate the idea behind this, I start with a simple melody without any articulation or dynamic.
Then during this lesson i gonna develop more and more this simple melody by adding articulation, rhythm variations, dynamic, etc.
This will help you to create your own vocabulary and to find your own "voice"!
