Gorguts - Reduced To Silence (Dat Riff!)
I remember the first time I heard Gorguts I was blown away by how weird and dissonant they are! This riff is less dissonant than their average but it's still got some extremely odd harmonies. I think over time they've really grown as songwriters and Coloured Sands is an incredible album.

Hey all, hope you're doing great! Listening to some more Solitude and really got into this riff, so I spent a few evenings putting a cover together for you! Hoping to do some cool new lesson/video essay stuff but progress is slow. Probably doing some abstract stuff on the aesthetics of heaviness and some stuff around Sol Niger Within... what would you like to see?

No Oath creating whole new kinds of THALL. These pitch bends and reverb are just gorgeous. Rhythm guitar is F standard 8 string, pitched down 10 semitones, so, what G0? 4Hz to go before it's inaudible. :P Lead guitar is a pretty normal lead tone, with lots of postprocessing for delays, reverb and subtle pitch shifts. Normally I try and do my pitch shifts with string bending but I felt the digit...

Meshuggah - Stifled (Dat Solo!)
Переглядів 8 тис.3 роки тому
Lithe, harsh and sinuous - this solo is one of Meshuggah's greatest. I hate to analyse solos I can't play so I made the effort to dig in and learn this one, which turned out to be a pleasure. Amusingly, it was the second lick that ended up giving me the most trouble, not the fancy legato stuff towards the end. I didn't have the time to figure this out by ear and really didn't like the available...

    That's a pretty awesome (and faithful) recreation of that incredible riff, and that tone is on-point! Doubly impressed given that the original riff was done digitally so matching it on a real guitar is awesome. I absolutely love The Equalizer on account of that solo, and Gloria for the same reason. Can I ask if you used pedals for that tone and what ones you use if so? I've been trying to use pedals but can't quite get the match I want, only sort of ballpark so far.

    • @FreepowerUG
      @FreepowerUG 21 день тому

      Thank you! I used an AxeFx II for the tone, I don't know if I saved it, but the main thing was to use a pitchshift effect up one octave. Otherwise you're going to need more than 24 frets to hit all the notes :P

    Especially when we copy Holdsworth note for note, draw upon the essence of it, remember the basis of the licks. And then keep developing your own voice. Learn it, but move on quickly. Why, do you ask? BECAUSE ALLAN IMPROVISED ALL OF HIS SOLOS!!! If we stay in the copy/cover stage of learning too long....we never develop our own voice.
