Cool, thanks russmuller, I'll give that a shot. I've been working on triplets as -middle finger down -pick down -pick up That also loops pretty well. I'm going to try your idea as well though, thanks!
Hey everybody, I just did a lesson on a technique I came up with that I'm calling hybrid strumming. The idea is to play rhythmic tuplets like a flamenco player, only using both fingers and the pick to strum. I hope you like it! Gianmarc
I recently did a lesson on my youtube channel that teaches you how to quickly figure out all the notes and basic chords in any key signature. I think this could be very useful for beginners, so I thought I'd share it. I hope you like it!
I did a basic music theory instructional video for my youtube channel last night that I think came out pretty well. It can take the viewer from not knowing the notes or chords in any scale to being able to figure out the notes and basic triads in any major or natural minor key signature in less...
Hey everybody! I just wrote/recorded a parody of Let it Go for the University of California, Irvine, Chemistry Department. I did all lead and backing vocals, and the guitars. I'm also the long haired guy in the video :-). I didn't bust out the 8 string for this one, but hopefully you won't...
I just did a lesson on breaking out of single position playing for my youtube channel. There is a brief demonstration in the beginning, and then the lesson focuses on explaining a strategy for mapping any scale of interest up and down the fretboard instead of teaching specific licks. I hope you...
Hey everybody, I played a six string on this cover, but I think it came out really well, so I figured I'd share it here anyway. I hope you like it! Gianmarc You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGv1FT7v6R8
Cool :-). I know the sound you're talking about, I can do it a little bit myself. I'll probably do a video on it once I get a little better at it myself.
Thanks a lot everybody!! I haven't tried incorporating vibrato with the tongue, but the tongue is needed to shape the overtones (same way you change pitch while whistling), so it would probably be tough to pull off. Thanks for posting those other overtone singers. Christian Bollmann is...
I love Alice in Chains, I used to listen to their self-titled album all the time back in the day :-). I'm afraid the reference here is escaping me though, did Lane Staley use overtone singing?
Cool, thanks for listening everybody! I've seen that Ghengis blues thing, pretty sweet. I first got into singing overtones because I went to go see the Dali Lama speak, and his "opening act" was a Tuvan throat singer that accompanied himself with a guitar-like instrument like the one the dude...
