This only proves that you’re special and no one comes close on guitar covers like the ones you do. I fucking love you and I’m proud to call you my best friend ❤️❤️❤️
I swear that verse riff is one of the sickest thing jon has written for this album, ever since he posted it on instagram like a year ago, and your cover itself really did justice to this amazing song!
dude you're going down in the history of youtube. as a producer myself, i say that the amount of effort you put into literally recreating ENTIRE arrangements(i presume you do most of them by ear) is beyond praiseworthy. keep it up my guy!
It’s insane how close and accurate you are with the Northlane covers ESPECIALLY. The level of conviction you have with making sure all the elements are right Is inspiring as f u k. Big ups João, u da 🐐
Bro.. you release the first clarity instrumental its awesome!!! Since i heard this song for first time i was waiting for the instrumental, the breakdowsn are totally insane!! And you did it first!! Thank you!!
Bro, this cover is simply perfect! Can't imagine all the work behind the scenes to get all the tunes and all the little details, but this effort is what makes you different! Thank you for covering my favorite Obsidian song, and to get your synth skills on fire, I'd love to see a Obsidian cover as well!
It's actually incredible how good you are at playing and mixing covers. What was that technique you used where it looked like you were pinching the bridge?
@@joaoldmedeiros Never thought about the fact that you can’t do the behind the nut bend with the Evertune. You can’t do it even in the zone that allows you to bend notes?
@@MarkLePage bending behind the nut would be bending up since you’re increasing the string tension (if the low note he was trying to hit was at the zero fret, bending up behind the nut -> picking the string -> then releasing the bend slowly would achieve this. However, because the string is already tuned up, he can’t use that technique (releasing a bend up would not hit the low note) therefore pushing the saddle in gives relief to the string tension making it go lower in pitch. With Evertune the lowest you can go without doing this innovative technique João invented (TM) 😉would be whatever note you tuned up to in zone 2… you won’t get any lower. Think of dive bombing with a floating trem or tuning the string down by winding the tuner head while playing. That’s what’s happening here. Hope this helps!
@@MarkLePage all good I did that myself at first when I saw João do it, is he going up or down? 😅 then realized if he wanted to go up he could have bent behind the nut if he’s still in zone 2 but at the border of zone 3 (which he is, he did plenty of bends and that would’ve been just another one)
Clarity is one of my favorite songs off of the album and you did it perfectly. The mix and the GUITAR TONE are absolutely incredible and i love watching you play :) you should try obsidian or dark solitaire to cover next!
Once again, nice mix and great production! I never thought of doing that repeated high Eb at the end of the intro riff on another string. That makes way more sense than some crazy fast re-picking. I never saw someone do a dip on a evertune too, that’s crazy hahaha. I used a pitch shifter -1 sem for the breakdown. Thx for the cover João! Glad to be on your patreon 👏🏻
Thank you Joris! Yeah it was either that or a zero from a pull-off! And yes on an Evertune you can move the saddle in real-time 😉 Thank YOU for the love and support on Patreon!
So sick man! I’ve been loving Obsidian, as well as the track Obsidian. Huge tune!! Sick cover bro, I’ve been trying to figure out how to make some synth sounds close to Jon’s so it’s cool hearing you replicate them so closely!
Hey mate, I’ve been watching you for a few years now - whilst your covers are always amazing, this one takes it to the next level in every possible way. Congratulations, incredible work!
This song makes my mind lose clarity and go absolute bonkers Edit: dude the intro and that evertune bending omg. That was too good to not comment on it
Echo Chamber next would be great, the breakdown on it is filthy. Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's tried that trick with the Evertune! Edit: Just saw you did Echo Chamber on here, I'm gonna watch it rn
@@joaoldmedeiros if you can't decide what song to cover next, I would love if you gave Obsidian a shot, I'm curious how you are gonna tackle all the synths and samples on that one
Oh my. New song for me to learn, thanks for the tab, I had the intro but the rest was a bit difficult to figure out as I don't have much time to play. You're the Goat of covers. Big thanks Joao
Dude! I’ve been following you since you had less than 10k subscribers and this is just incredible. Your audio and video quality is the best out there when it comes to cover artists in my opinion, and obviously your musical talent is top notch. 100k subscribers coming soon!
You’re always pushing the limits for sounding as close as possible to the original music, and the result is stellar ✨ There’s a huge amount of work behind this cover. I’m impressed mon ami, bravo ♥️
GREAT to see you are still jamming the shit out of the univers. ...... Still waiting for "the mouth licking what you've bled" though ;-) Have a great weekend Joäo!
@@joaoldmedeiros Ey, you are a major fucking talent. DOn't let my taste bother you! Keep rocking bro! You are truly an awesome muciscian! All peace and love to you buddy!
1:29 aaaaaaaaaaand my neck is broken; probably the sickest riff I've ever heard in my life, the flow is immaculate and I've never felt so compelled to drop kick myself or anything else out of a fucking window until I head this song. Northlane is just straight fire

🎸 Guitar tuning: Eb Ab Eb Ab Db F Bb
What songs are you playing most on Obsidian? :)
►► Watch me mix this cover: patreon.com/joaoldmedeiros
Is this tuning from lowest to highest? Do you tune the low B up to E or down to E 🤔
mostly clarity
Woahhhh I never even thought of bending on the evertune like that before, genius
It IS a floating bridge after all, right? 🤫😏
That’s what I said too! João’s big brain 🧠
Evertune is magic 🌚
@@aaAMatheusAguiarAaa indeed it is 😌
This only proves that you’re special and no one comes close on guitar covers like the ones you do.
I fucking love you and I’m proud to call you my best friend ❤️❤️❤️
You're the best, my dear friend 💙💙💙
You’re killing MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I think so definitely Louis, I went out of my way to ask him if it was on the album!!! Hehehe thank you so much 🙏
@@joaoldmedeiros id really love seeing your take on Cypher or Abomination :)

Thank you so much Nasir. So happy you appreciate all the work that goes into these
It’s insane how close and accurate you are with the Northlane covers ESPECIALLY.
The level of conviction you have with making sure all the elements are right Is inspiring as f u k.
Big ups João, u da 🐐
It really is conviction, not certainty! Glad you can distinguish and appreciate my friend. Thank you for your support throughout! 💕💕💕
My favorite song from the album. Awesome Job bro!!!
I have never seen that technique to pitch bend before. Super sick 3:47
Great choice friend! Thanks so much
This is insane. Congratulations. Next song... "Cypher"?? ;)
Thakn you very much Alvaro! Yes, probably the next one on this album for me :)
Bro.. you release the first clarity instrumental its awesome!!! Since i heard this song for first time i was waiting for the instrumental, the breakdowsn are totally insane!! And you did it first!! Thank you!!
Glad you like it my friend!
I believe there actually was another one released wayyyy earlier when the album first came out but this one is technically more accurate
my favourite song of the album for sure. great cover !
Great choice Cali! Thank you so much ❤
I love the way you improvised how to do bends with evertune. Big brain time it is
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

It's actually incredible how good you are at playing and mixing covers. What was that technique you used where it looked like you were pinching the bridge?
Thakn you friend! I'm pushing the Evertune saddle inwards to lower the string length and thus bend down

Me too Tyler! These have been taking a lot of work so I'm happy you appreciate it as you always do ❤️
getting those slow-mos and fades in there- Another banger mate! 🥵🤠

Hehehe glad it made you smile friend!!! It's beginning to get to my head that I might be one of the first do ever to this 🤣
@@joaoldmedeiros I can attest that this is the first time I’ve seen anyone do this 😄

Ahahaha thank you so much Willow! I am tuning, as ever! Don't like to pitch shift
@@joaoldmedeiros fair enough, thank you!
Bro.. i like your covers a lot!!! I would like you play obsidian song 🤩 thanks for your videos mate!!
