Protest the Hero did that with the guitar parts for Kezia. They essentially wrote parts that they couldnt play and had to learn and practice the shit out of them before recording hahah.
From what i remember, Tim Henson of Polyphia did a similar thing where he wrote chords and melody separately on a synth/keyboard then managed to play the whole thing on a guitar, pretty cool way of writing things you wouldnt normally think of
My man tim said in an interview that one of his choruses was a section from a song from ariana grande played backwards. The thing is tim uses keyboards to compose but to be honest they play 8 strings so there are a lot of possibilities and options.
You look like the darker twin of Adam Neely that instead of going to jazz school and playing Bass, you went deep into the metal culture and learned guitar instead
AJ Grizzy maybe but I’m just going based on his looks and such plus they’re focusing on different spectrums of music and Adam teaches also and does research
@Taz D. Francis um... He clearly misses a few in this... Not saying he's bad... That just kinda happens when playing so fast, even with the very mastered. Sometimes you nail it, Sometimes a few bits are off.
@@NathanielBTM I'm 100% positive what your hearing in the fast version is the momentum of the string due to speed, which makes it sound different than if its played slower and sped up. Meaning, faster is how he intended it to sound, he even speaks about this in the video. Jason hit every note on this riff. Do yourself a favor and slow down the fast one. ;)
@@VaLULrant i did, He misses a note on the very last run of the riff. By no means am i disregarding his skill. He's extremely talented and what ge plays is amazing. But humans can only do so much. I'm simply saying that the second version sped up is how it would sound if you could play it perfectly... Like a robot. Think of it like a tool assisted speedrun, or a cut up speedrun on a game of the fastest speeds of each section all bunched together, it'd be basically impossible to achieve in one single speed run by a human ever, but theoretically it's possible... It will still though... Never be achieved by anyone
I write things that are way too difficult for me to play, making me learn and practice. Gives you your sound I think, your own personal progression and playing style is what makes you a musician. Not a wannabe that sounds like someone else. Jason has it all.
I'm learning this riff right now and can play the first part of the riff at probably 75-80% speed already, it flow surprisingly EXTREMELY well and i'm playing on a six string
Awesome riffage. Never heard of this dude and was shocked after a google to learn that I am 10 years older than him! Wow. I had heard of "Born of Osiris" because of the "Nik Nocturnal" channel; he's a young kid that plays very well and is into all the Djent stuff but I've begun to realise that I'm an old man now! Lmao! Excellent work from Mr. Richardson; totally, totally edifying.
@Aaron Wells Yeah, I'm certainly gonna check him out. I rarely listen to modern metal at all, in the post-early 2000's sense, excepting some black/death. Hence why I sub young guys like Nik Nocturnal. I have many playlists on my channel of bands I do like but I never dug Meshuggah or the genre(s) they are credited with influencing and spawning; basically the Djent stuff. I guess you could say I'm stuck in the past but thanks for the tips. Richardson is clearly worth the attention of any player and I will certainly be having a deeper look at him.
@Aaron Wells Also i think you can find super old videos of him on her wheres hes playing All Shall Perish songs when hes like 16-17 and just destroying them (and they aren't easy songs). Of course later that year he went on to tour with them playing lead lol. Kids too good for his own good lol. cheers!! \m/
@Aaron Wells yup, ive fallowed him since those early days so iv probably seen almost every video hes ever put out. its been cool to his rise to the monster he is now. lol
@@09ThunderOne Thanks for that man and all the advice, seems like some of us guitarist have the same ear maybe we are not alone in the universe haha.try adding the Bach CONCEPT to the slower melodic parts, it will blow your mind, search for how would back play on YT(shredmaster scott)..his harmony is killer for this stuff..
Jason did something similar for a solo he died on a tune by Purge of Lilith. I think Jason ran a few arpeggios into a synth's arpeggiator and then learned the output, which sounds like a broken computer and is quite difficult.
I was literally just looking up Joey Izzo leads and this came up in the search results lmao. I feel like my timing on seeing this could not have been better.
@@mathewmcconaughey6557 thats really odd, ive never run into that issue unless its like a 64 or larger. Try out tapered strings. If that doesnt work file your tuner i guess
Because he's not using right preset for this song, just go to his Instagram and find out his video of him playing this riff with proper tight tone, EBMM has 25.5 scale length which is not enough for a drop G tuning, so without proper sound/tone it sounded like that
@@lachaineguitarededavid told ya!! Proper tone and tightness it would definitely sound better because Jason probably the cleanest player I've ever seen!!
I promise that I cover this song, this year as an first Iranian person in the world, and then show you buddy, you're ma brother, brother, so I promise you brotherly baby, from love from GREAT PERSIA 🙏💋💋🫀🫀🔥🔥
Yeah man!! The one on his Instagram, he played in full speed with the right tone it sounds different, cause like EBMM 7 strings are 25.5 so it gets floppy when he tunes down to G , that's why with right tone, it should sound perfect.
I'll keep it real with you chief, at full speed it sounds like total mud with that amount of distortion on the low strings, but it's a sick riff when you slowed it down, could actually hear what you were doing
@@djstringsmusic2994 yeah dude for sure!Because he's not using right preset for this song, just go to his Instagram and find out his video of him playing this riff with proper tight tone, EBMM has 25.5 scale length which is not enough for a drop G tuning, so without proper sound/tone it sounded like that, shitting on Internet is really easy and people like you do that all the time, you would shit in your pants to play that on speed, if you really have balls to play that in speed, play that and upload a video on your channel then talk shit otherwise no one's gonna care about anything!!! It's really easy to say I can do that but not easy to actually do that!!!!
Speed is very impressive but this is one of those times that just bc its fast doesnt mean it sounds good, very good playing but too fast to make anything out of that
When he plays it slower it sounds way cooler to me, like a banger riff.
Because he's not using right preset for this song, just go to his INSTAGRAM and find out his video of him playing this riff with low gain tone
Totally
Exactly. I instantly thought the same thing.
it’s like architects kind a style
@@ranajoyshil It sounds really cool there indeed. Of course, part of the credit goes to the backing track and the context of the song.
You know something is crazy if Jason says it’s not realistic to play at a speed
It would seriously give tendinitis, try lmao
@@ranajoyshil I'm sorry. Jason's songs are for listening only. They aren't for trying it out on your guitar. 😂
@@an_38kitkashyap don't try this at home
Damn, Jason is one of the few people to write stuff before learning it. Dude kills himself with such difficult material, no wonder he's such a beast
Protest the Hero did that with the guitar parts for Kezia. They essentially wrote parts that they couldnt play and had to learn and practice the shit out of them before recording hahah.
I do it all the time.I use this same approach.
I’m nowhere near Jason’s level, but I do the same thing a lot of the time. Write what I think sounds cool, then practice it til I can play it.
From what i remember, Tim Henson of Polyphia did a similar thing where he wrote chords and melody separately on a synth/keyboard then managed to play the whole thing on a guitar, pretty cool way of writing things you wouldnt normally think of
Yeah that's exactly how he wrote GOAT and OD
That's exactly what happened. The same exact program, too. Just skip a minute or two in
ruclips.net/video/WVC0-la3KIg/видео.html
Would of never thought of composing a song or a riff on a piano and then applied it on a guitar.
Jason actually writes from what he hears. Tim literally just copies the shit.
My man tim said in an interview that one of his choruses was a section from a song from ariana grande played backwards. The thing is tim uses keyboards to compose but to be honest they play 8 strings so there are a lot of possibilities and options.
Jason's fretting hand is mesmerizing. Whenever I see him play it blows my mind.
You look like the darker twin of Adam Neely that instead of going to jazz school and playing Bass, you went deep into the metal culture and learned guitar instead
Feel like Neely knows waaay more about music..

@@Xirrious Jason knows all about theory. He went deep into classical music.
Play 1:30 at 2x speed and you have the initial version but more cleaner, no sloppy sound or missed note
I did that
@Taz D. Francis um... He clearly misses a few in this... Not saying he's bad... That just kinda happens when playing so fast, even with the very mastered. Sometimes you nail it, Sometimes a few bits are off.

Insane as always
This riff is definitely best at full speed. Haters just can't even play it slow...
And lovers can play it fast?
don camillo I can
Yes@@doncamillo9147
Is that a music Man majesty guitar? Love those things
Yes it is my dude.
0:20 he gave us a little hand gesture like “it’s not that complicated” 🤣
Sounds like a Lamb of God riff. Awesome stuff
"The riff is completely unorthodox, it doesn't really make sense."
Well that makes me feel a little better 🤣
How does he not get hurt playing like that with a giant heavy watch on. Amazing!
This is what happens when Ben Shapiro listens to dream theater once.
lol he even has a similar voice
Can't unsee..
hahaha he sounds like Ben Shapiro
I first saw Jason at a live show and immediately though he looked like Ben Shapiro’s angry son from the future
Omg dude all i could think about was "my wife will be a slave" shapiro the whole time.
This is how I compose a lot of my difficult parts in my music. That way I know exactly what’s going on.
I was literally just looking up Joey Izzo leads and this came up in the search results lmao. I feel like my timing on seeing this could not have been better.
If someone could tell me what gauge string he used on that low G I would be forever grateful to you... it’s not a Standard 11-58.
Its 11-58 in drop G. I use the same setup he does
I have a Majesty 7 but I can’t fit a 58 through my tuning peg and I guess I just assumed he didn’t file them down?
@@mathewmcconaughey6557 thats really odd, ive never run into that issue unless its like a 64 or larger. Try out tapered strings. If that doesnt work file your tuner i guess
That might be the only Majesty I've seen that I liked the look of haha
Ever heard of The Dooo?
Brilliant work !!!
Sounds better at full speed
K, first 3 videos, I thought yeah I could definitely do that!!! And now, no way!!!
Can this be played on a 6 string ? If so what tuning would it be ???
Some times speed isn’t everything. I like shredding but it can turn to white noise
what pickups does he use
unpredictable
What watch is he wearing?
I dub this riff Lamb of Prog.
1:30 - just for myself
Anyone know what string gauge he uses?
10-56 if I remember well
Slower sounds way better to me. While fast version sounds like a mess.

You could definitely take about 50% off of their super Chiefton! It totally sounds better slowed down.

Sounded better when he played it slower. Playing it at "full speed" just sounds like noise and nonsense. 1:28 is best
The actual track is much clearer.
Cool riffage. The tone is really not pleasant though.
It never is on these videos. This is honestly one of the better ones I've heard and it is still bad

You should slow your click to practice and it wouldn't be as sloppy. Regardless it shreds on album.
Sounds better slower to me..
"Because it is way too big of jump to grab tha note here". Say the guy who always put lot of big jump to his song
he really looks like a villain

Man, Born of Osiris was so much better with this dude... Imean tonight we die alive is fucking excellent, but after that it's all downhill...
Faster is always better
Slow down man God damn
Shiny forehead.
Lmfao
In order to play this level, you have to use cheats.
damn jason... lay off the energy drinks brah
Great Video! But Polyphia did this first though
He has been doing this for decades now, his solos in BoO, follow the signs, devastate al were written digitally!
it's amazing how his picking is so sloppy but he can still play fast too
You know what, just seeing you, the way that you talking, that's enough fo me, nothing more 😁😇😎😛😘🥹😭🫣
Speed is very impressive but this is one of those times that just bc its fast doesnt mean it sounds good, very good playing but too fast to make anything out of that
Honestly sounds pretty sloppy full speed.
you are the sloppy
Sounds like a megadeth song
Megadeth never wrote and could never write something that much technical and unconventional and I love Megadeath and this is not hateful either!
he’s got too much gain on.
That speed is not what that riff deserves IMO. It sounds much better when played slower. So much is lost when played so fast.
That shit is disgusting 😂👍
Wow.. This is absolute pure garbage. Slow it sounds decent, full speed sounds awful
