It was a lot of effort for sure... Transcribing it was one thing, playing it reasonably well was another... it took most of the time. Thanks man. I'm glad you enjoyed it and best of luck to you going forward with it. 🙏🏻
🙏🙏Great technique and thank you so much for the transcription, I'll spend hours looking at this as soon as I manage to get my hands on an 8 string to learn this song
You're very welcome. I sincerely hope you get your hands on an 8-string soon. By the way, if this is the first song you learn on 8-string, we will have that in common! Best of luck.
Amazing! Could you try covering Thoughts and Prayers? Love the transcription, i’ll try the solo one day, and that thump tutorial convinced me to buy a bass haha.
Dude, I love that song! BUT I think I will take a break from whole transcription projects until at least 2023. 😆 Good shout though. And thanks for the kind words 🙏 Hope you enjoy your bass! I play a lot of 5-string for another project. What make/model did you buy? 😲
@@relaxwithriffs6682 Take as long of a break as you want, this one will keep me occupied for a while haha, and I just got a cheap Squier Classic Vibe V. You're an inspiration to many, take care!
Holy sh*. Man, I can't even imagine how challenging it was. To play and to understand each note, each sound. And beyond that, transcribint and to improve your technique to this level. Absolutely insane. Is there any strategy you could share? I'm a cellist and I'm into this kind of music, but some stuff are way divergent in idiomatic ways. I'd love a tip to understand better the guitar language and being able to approach those solos with more property.
Thank you for the kind words man 🙏🏻 That's an interesting question. If I have one tip in general, it's to understand intervals and to be able to recall their colours at will. When it's comes to guitar specifically, many ideas do not necessarily mesh well with typical harmonic analysis, but are rather specific to the instrument and the vocabulary it encourages. So the best way to transcribe a piece like this is to get to know the guitar first, how it is tuned, what kind of phrasing is possible, and the chords shapes, techniques, and patterns that are available to the player. Then, in combination with good ears and slow listening, you can begin to reconstruct what the instrument/artist has created. So much of this piece is technically driven, so this advice is not so helpful until you are already at a high level I think... but that is the unfortunate reality. I could write a lot more about the specific techniques and tonalities that have shaped this composition... but I think I would need to make another video to really say anything of value! In a nutshell, good ears + patience + deep experience of the instrument + curiosity... some combination of these produces a good transcription! Hope that helps!
@@relaxwithriffs6682 so grateful for you reply! It'll surely help. My last one is: when you talk about slow listening, you mean you literally play the tune in a slower tempo so you're able to recognize some fast passages? Or is it about patience?
@@joelonceloYou're welcome. And yes, I mean literally slowing down the track and relistening with patience over and over - it is the best way to transcribe something this detailed with high accuracy.
Thank you for showing interest in my work. Unfortunately, I haven't uploaded it anywhere as it's way too long for instagram. In general I need to create a good way to share my tabs properly. I'm hoping to get to this soon but life has been stressful lately. In the meantime please make do with the video version. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Unsurprisingly, Neural DSP Archetype Abasi 😀 Use the middle (the midgain one) amplifier with a little bit of reverb, and make sure you're using a split coil sound. Note that this tone is a bit different to the original track, because I wanted what I was playing to stand out from the original.
@@relaxwithriffs6682 Thank you sir. I am using the same but keep having trouble dialing in a tone for the selective picking to truly pop out… Is there a way you can send me your preset please?
I can't even imagine how much effort you put into this video. Thank you very much. It's a big help!
It was a lot of effort for sure... Transcribing it was one thing, playing it reasonably well was another... it took most of the time.
Thanks man. I'm glad you enjoyed it and best of luck to you going forward with it. 🙏🏻
God mod activated
Selective hybrid picking was not something I expected from a song called Micro-aggressions, but im pleasantly surprised
the micro-aggressions are against us "lesser" players as we stare at the hands trying to keep up with what we're hearing haha
Beyond earned the sub, I am happy to have gotten here early before you blow up. Amazing playing!
Thanks man, you're too kind 🙏
🙏🙏Great technique and thank you so much for the transcription, I'll spend hours looking at this as soon as I manage to get my hands on an 8 string to learn this song

@@relaxwithriffs6682 what happened to it?
@DHGWHISKEY117 It had QC issues and I had to return it under warranty.
Holy gawd dang! Very impressive, i cant imagine the hours of practice required to learn this
Thanks man 🙏🏻 Worth every second!

Well done

OMG thx !!!

Well, back to "Come as you are"
I respect that
I can't understand what I'm hearing. Idk if it sounds good or bad.
That's a valid comment right there 👌🏻 This is not everyone's cup of tea 😆
Hey I checked out your insta page and couldn't find where the tabs are. Can you plz help me find it? thanks!

Damn!
😅
hello , can u make a cover of orb by ichika nito on your larada ? we will love to hear that
Ichika has a very unique style, which I have not studied closely - but I would love to give it a try eventually 😀
Great work! Do you happen to have the GP file or PDF for the transcription?
Thanks! I've not really figured out what to do with my GP files yet to be honest... You'll have to make do with the video for now I'm afraid 😅
@@relaxwithriffs6682 At least sell them!
Yeah this is crazy! I am learning the song using your video. How do I reach THAT guitar tone tho?
Unsurprisingly, Neural DSP Archetype Abasi 😀 Use the middle (the midgain one) amplifier with a little bit of reverb, and make sure you're using a split coil sound.

You're a legend bro thank you 1000 times!!@@relaxwithriffs6682
All good. Have fun
Sheeeesh
😅
this is one of those songs that just seems impossible to play let alone create
What tuning?
EBEADGBE (which is what most AAL songs use)
@ thanks!
Tosin Abasi son.
What tuning are you in?
EBEADGBE!
Okay i gave up reading the tabs.
Damn i need more strings 😅
Join me, brother.
@relaxwithriffs6682 I need to... I've been learning polyphia songs and riffs for the last year or so and it's time for AAL for sure
