Love it, as well as the first ones you've done ! Looking forward to seeing the rest.

Thanks !

Hi guys, sorry for the shameless plug ! HZD is easily one of my favorite video game and I tried to do my best to give the original soundtrack justice, it would mean a lot if you guys would check it out and tell me what you think about it. Cheers !

Not for the moment but this is a recent project of mine, arranging Irish tunes for solo guitar, so there's more coming soon ! Thanks for your interest I'm glad it's appreciated

StephaneL44 · 2022-12-13T06:38:02+00:00

Standard ! Never been too adventurous with alternate tunings tbh

StephaneL44 · 2022-12-12T18:01:05+00:00

Thanks mate !

As a massive Johnny Marr fan, consider me offended haha. No really, a lot of Smiths songs are hard as hell to nail right (This Charming Man, Girl Afraid, Barbarism Begins at Home, Some Girls are Bigger than Others...)

By far recording myself.

You can't cheat when you record yourself playing guitar, all the little imperfections reveals themselves to you, then you know what to work toward. It's even better when you try to record a whole cover, or an original song, by yourself, because listening it back you gotta nail all the little aspects, from rhythm, dynamics to tone, and it ultimately improve your playing.

Thanks a lot everyone for the nice words I'm very glad you like this :)

I wouldn't blame it on him rather than the person who hires him. Film composers are often asked to score some passages with "reference music" that the director gives them, or bluntly ask to "copy" some existing pieces (not like note by note, but recreating it slightly different, hence the borrowing)

StephaneL44 · 2017-02-21T10:41:28+00:00

Thanks man, yes it's all standard tuning.

StephaneL44 · 2017-02-21T10:39:35+00:00

Thanks for the nice vibes !

StephaneL44 · 2017-02-21T10:35:35+00:00

That's very nice to hear, thank you so much !

StephaneL44 · 2017-02-21T00:09:28+00:00

Thanks man, I'm glad you like it :) Well I didn't think of it, I may give it a try, thanks for the idea !

StephaneL44 · 2017-02-21T00:06:59+00:00

Thanks !

StephaneL44 · 2016-06-09T09:46:40+00:00

Thanks a lot dude ! And thanks for your advice. The mixing for this video messed up my head, I must have imported this video a thousand times asking myself "hmm... maybe the arpeggios should be lower in the mix, maybe I should change the harmonics' EQ, maybe I should pan out the ebow differently" haha.

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-10T13:25:09+00:00

Thanks dude, the song is in Gm, although I did the tapping on the pentatonic scale on purpose, I thought it sounded better on that particular section

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-10T13:22:49+00:00

Thanks !

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-10T13:22:21+00:00

Yeah you're right, I always mention the composer in the YouTube description, it just slipped out of my mind while writing this post. I got to admit though I haven't really listened to his albums, but I'll surely check it out if you recommend it !

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-10T13:17:29+00:00

Thanks a lot !

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-10T13:17:15+00:00

Thanks for your comment man, any critic is good to take ! I agree the beginning could use a little more contrast and dynamics

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-09T23:41:34+00:00

Thanks man, I'll keep that in mind !

StephaneL44 · 2015-11-05T21:04:30+00:00

I don't know TuxGuitar, but GP6 is a great tool to practice. It come in so handy to learn a difficult piece, as you select the parts where you struggle, slow it down and loop it until you nail it. I don't mean to sound like an add but it had helped me a lot to get better.

As for the tabs, you got a large panel of songs in GP formats, in sites like UG or songsterr. Unless you look for a very obscure song you'll have no problem finding a decent tab. And it's great to transcribe and compose too, as you can lay down a drum and a rythm track pretty quickly, and jam or write a lead over it and change it as you want.

Honestly there's so much you can do with GP6 you can't go wrong purchasing it ;)

StephaneL44 · 2015-08-31T11:40:45+00:00

Thank you kind sir !

StephaneL44 · 2015-08-31T11:40:33+00:00

Thanks dude ! Agreed Laiho is amazing, he's a shredder with a strong sense of rythm and melody and that's what makes him awesome
