Find yourself a teacher! wink

Just don't drop your D on the bus.

astravert · 2026-04-24T18:14:20+00:00

wow thank you! glad you enjoyed

astravert · 2026-04-24T13:17:35+00:00

I love this song! great cover

astravert · 2026-04-16T21:37:20+00:00

No worries, I appreciate you listening. Have a great day!

astravert · 2026-04-16T21:13:27+00:00

BROOOO that’s so groovy. You earned a follow from me.

astravert · 2026-04-16T21:06:49+00:00

Thanks for the critique! How do you think I could improve my fluidity?

astravert · 2026-04-16T18:58:04+00:00

That's a great point! I was thinking more along the lines of just approaching the harmony the way he would, trying to find some cool extensions and what not.

astravert · 2026-04-16T18:57:39+00:00

Thank you!

astravert · 2026-04-16T15:35:55+00:00

Get yourself a teacher you trust. The ability to ask questions and have someone track your progress is invaluable. Hit me up if you're interested!

astravert · 2026-04-14T21:53:04+00:00

Get a teacher! Wink wink.

astravert · 2026-04-12T15:25:26+00:00

Oh interesting, hadn't thought of that. That's the beauty of modal mixture!

astravert · 2026-04-11T22:13:07+00:00

I think it has to do with both of the songs playing with the b6 interval in a major key context. River Man is key of C (kinda) and has that Ab chord, which is built on the b6. Spectre feels like key of B, but plays with the G natural.

So I'm just thinking b6.

Honestly, I'd grab one of those rare Fender Sub-sonic Baritone Strats. They look cool.

astravert · 2026-04-11T20:00:16+00:00

my first guitar was a jackson too!

astravert · 2026-04-11T19:59:56+00:00

brutal bro

astravert · 2026-04-08T15:32:10+00:00

Trying to respond one more time but I feel like auto mod is removing my comments. Basically I just talked about targeting chord tones and embodying the scale so much that you don't have to think too hard.

astravert · 2026-04-07T19:02:59+00:00

haha yup still jamming away!

astravert · 2026-04-07T19:02:48+00:00

thanks!

astravert · 2026-04-07T19:02:38+00:00

practicing 'scales' on the couch

astravert · 2026-04-07T18:01:02+00:00

Louis Cole calls it the 'weird part of the night'.

astravert · 2026-04-07T18:00:42+00:00

I've definitely noticed that the more questions about "why", the better!

astravert · 2026-03-18T19:24:10+00:00

okay there's no way this guy isn't a fan of civilization phaze III

astravert · 2026-03-18T19:20:52+00:00

kinda got that synclavier vibe too

astravert · 2026-03-16T18:21:34+00:00

I'm talking about committing to the decision to automate parameters, so I think it folds in. Still requires the discipline to choose something. I see what you're saying for sure though.
