    This is probably one of the most amazing pieces I have ever seen for guitar. It's not only beautiful, it takes amazing levels of skill and not only shows off how good an ear the artist has for a cool tune, it also shows off tons of skill.
    Amazing.

  • @fabianvanderelst9643
    @fabianvanderelst9643 5 лет назад +78

    This is definetely one of my favourite songs on Candyrat Records and of all fingerstyle guitarist songs. Sometimes fingerstyle guitarists are incredibly talented, and just have crazy chops and stuff, but they just don't resonate with me. This one does though! I am placed into another place in the world, where there are no walls and cities, somewhere high on a mountain, where I can see the icy clouds, and the occassional raindrops falling on my head, while contemplating about life.
    And this is definetely one of the songs that inspires me to not only see how fast I can play and what skills I can do, but what the emotion behind it is. Makes me focus on "What does it evoke?" instead of "Can I play this faster? or "Can I do more things at the same time?"
    I think the point of knowing all kinds of techniques in any music style in the end is to use them to serve a song, and to create emotions and places and times that were previously not known of, or even to recreate existing emotions and places and times.
    Thanks a whole lot for sharing!

      I think art of any kind is made with two intentions: To convey an idea or emotion, and to be interpreted. The artist is responsible for what the piece may try convey, while the audience is responsible for how it is actually perceived, and that perception is inevitably going to be different from the initial intention and between each person in some way, even if it is minor. The artist only has vague or incomplete control over how a piece will make a person feel, and they only know for certain how it makes them feel, and even that initially perceived feeling can change over time, lost. For this reason, I feel it's pointless to linger on what a piece is supposed to make me feel, and just take the feeling that comes. And I feel music artists that have a wide array of techniques to have, at their disposal, the potential to invoke greater and more complex emotions and imagery with their playing. But in the end, how well they actually utilize their many techniques and skills makes all the difference. A great guitarist has perfect play, knows all the techniques, and knows every nook and cranny of their instrument like the back of their hand. A masterful guitarist knows how to best and most creatively make use of that information.

      Exactly! Same to me. Just now, I've listened to another talented guy. It was unbelievable what he performed with guitar but it was mostly about skill, nice melody and strong rhytm. So then I played this song and said to myself...yes, about this it is...that song could take you from the ground and bring you up in the skyes. For me, one of the best contemplative songs ever.

    The most talented guitarist I have heard in many, many years. He conveys emotion with his playing that only genius can produce. I respect that he worked hard to get better as a singer, but it is his guitar playing that is beyond good. I hope he remembers that, as his career gets bigger. He is one of the few, that I look forward to seeing live. Please come to the northeastern United States.

    Listening to this after being baked the first time in quite a while, well that was a good experience. The reverb and echo on the guitar, and just the guitar in itself, makes is sound so... I don't know how to describe it, big, massive? And then those notes that bend, well yeah. I love this, seriously good.
