My biggest mistake as a musician was pretty much like yours ^^ It took me quite a time to ask myself " what do i want as a musician ? " It's my 7th year of learning drum and i begin to develop my own style of playing. But since i've realised it for drum, it happened too for the guitar and keyboard part ^^ I think that, in a certain way, it's better to realize it at this point where i've still a lot to learn because i can that way focus on what i think would be useful to create this style ^^ One day when i was taking an electric guitar exam, one member of the jury told me that it was cool that i had my own style (which wasn't on the same stage of development as now which won't be the same as later ^^) ^^ And i think that i began to understand where i must go as a musician since that day ^^ My biggest accident was during a similar exam, but for the drum ^^ I forgot all of my sheets and i was rehearsing with the other students that also where taking this exam, but it wasn't my drum teacher that was doing the rehearsal (more of a warming-up by the way ^^') so when we were playing snare rudiments, he used some terms that i hadn't learn that time (but which i did later ^^) ^^' It was pretty tough for me to keep my composure because i was the only one in that case ^^ But i have to say, it surely helped me to realise that practicing wasn't the only thing that i would need to become a musician, that i would also need to improve my knowledge about theory ^^ Well, it certainly had worked because since that day, every time i heard about a theory point that didn't mean anything to me (that i didn't understood or that i simply hasn't learn) i did my best to learn it ^^ So yes these are still mistakes and accidents, but, in a certain way, these are the events that made us improve as a musician ^^
My biggest mistake was to switch my guitar to cassette player with my friend back in the 80's and not to start learning to play the guitar... But nowadays i'm pretty good at listening music....
My biggest mistake is focusing too much on technique, anytime I try to compose I can only make the intros and I never got past that, gonna try to improve those ideas more often when I'm playing.

@@DeltaPi314 Wonderwall is the first song I learned. I had my priorities straight at 13. Learn one stupid song with nonsensical lyrics and mediocre musicianship, get chicks.
Awesome video. Most guys on RUclips just shred a bunch and hand out a drill once in a while, you’re actually taking the time to inform on songwriting and composition, and it’s appreciated. Also, the hair whipping in the wind is glorious, clearly the source of your shredding ability.
"testicular fortitude" 😂 I'm gonna use that from here on in! And my biggest mistake is whenever I have an "a-ha!" moment, I constantly think "shit, what happens next?"
Why I discovered this channel only now. Man I'm falling in love with your videos and expecially, with your floating hair performances. Keep up the good work dude \m/
Your one of my favourite RUclipsrs for guitar your funny and talented and I enjoy all your content I’m a beginner guitar player and it’s awesome to watch and learn as much as I can at the same time
"Listen to other styles to improve yourself" and "learn how to play what you hear inside your head." Hands down the two best pieces of advice I've ever heard.
Love your creativity, Shred. Not only for composing, but also your approach on teaching.. really some gold tips right here, specially the one about originality. You gotta respect when someone incites others for more self expression. Greetings from Brazil
First But srsly dude, youve helped me a lot with music theory. You've introduced so many possibilities of compositional creativity to me but there's still yet so much to learn...
My God. I've only recently found your content but it's completely changed how I think about my playing and practicing. Genius song writing. Don't get me wrong I'm all about djent and this new age of prog, but this is fantastic. Keep it up my dood.
You look like a Metalhead(which you are), but you showed your true musician in this video. You let your musical interest take a backseat to your love of guitar. You didn't want your love of music to be misinterpreted as the same thing as your love of being a musician who dedicated your time to your instrument of choice. You're a lover of music before the hype of stylistic relevance in populism. I really love how you view these things because I'm not a musician. I'm a composer and I often feel, as someone who doesn't play an instrument, that I'm nothing but a machine who understands what I enjoy and want to hear without any theory schooling in my history and just try to appeal to my hearts content. You might think I'd disregard your views because I'm not a musician, but the reality is that you show me why, as an instrument inductionist, that it's worth focusing on what can be felt and inspired by how one practices their craft. You really are an inspiring fellow.
Great videos mate! I am not a guitarist but rather a vocal arranger, and your theory concepts have helped me a lot so far in writing interesting, non-cliched chord progressions for both my original songs and reharmonisations. Keep posting these videos man!
2:00 IT's A Tout LeMonde, if you like babes singing pop, check out Dave's daughter singing A Tout LeMonde Electra Mustaine A tout Le Monde live on TV or official video I thought I knew it All
Yeah, I know it's been about a year and a half since you put this out but I just discovered it. I thoroughly enjoyed your 20th century metal composition It had a lot of elements of dream theater polyrhythm metal It was right up my alley. Thank you for the creative encouragement
Cool bro! I'm just writing new music and finding kinda stuck and repeating myself. This video was the kick that my brain needed to get out of my ass. Thanks!
Great vid, I appreciate that you focus on actually composing the music instead on 1984789th episode of shredding or gear demos. This is most valuable in my opinion. Listening to a lot of different music is great advice. Dont limit yourself to metal, dont even stop on classical music and jazz- try as many genres as possible - post punk, prog rock, new wave, ambient, electronic music, even rap. There is a lot of great music that you can take inspration from. Even Varg Vikernes listened to techno a lot. I cant stand that so many people are just locked to one sound of metal and dont try to be anything different
Thanks, I'm gonna listen to some classical piano stuff. Even though i dont really understand about them guitar theory thingy, but i'll get there someday
I guess I was lucky. Got exposed to all sorts of music as a kid. When it came time to develop my own sound based on influences, part of my sound was a weird alternate picking that would be more at place on a bluegrass banjo. After focusing for years on the Megadeth and Metallica stuff, I re-opened my listening habits and not only did I enjoy just listening to music more, but I found a wider variety of musical ideas to borrow. Anyways, a happy new year to everyone.
Hey Shred! Just found your channel tonight. Super informative and inspiring stuff. It comes at the perfect time. I am beginning to take the leap into writing/composing my own metal tracks, and these compositional techniques are really opening my mind up to what is possible with the guitar and music in general. I have already filled several pages in my notebook with ideas to try out! Thanks man, shred on \m/
Good idea to develop your own style it's "borrowing" some techniques from your favourite guitarists and incorporate them in your playing (especially for soloing) for example: mix Van Halen (tapping) with wah-played licks (Hammett) and vibrato-bend notes (Slash) and add some your own ideas (harmonic etc.-whatever comes out of your mind) and you'd be able to create something unique. Greetings From Poland Scott!!! SHRED TIL' YOU'RE DEAD!!!
Here's an idea for a video: write a song that has several parts with seemingly nothing to do with each other, like they all have different chords, keys, maybe some even have their own melodies. Then tie it all together, kinda like the exact opposite of what your approach was in this video. I feel a lot of metal songwriters have trouble with this since they often just write a pile of riffs, glue them together in any way, and call it a song. Would also be fun to see your tricks for doing that even for the more advanced people I think.
I must agree with you on the state of 'metal'....Djent seems too thought out....Cookie monster vocals are weird to me...blast beats are only cool in moderation....I cut my teeth on the big 4...then around the Pantera era, I shifted to a totally different style altogether....Alas, I will be 50 yrs old in Nov. Cheers brother!! \M/
Re: listening to different music - I found alot of inspiration in a dvd we had of Loreena McKennitt live in The Alhambra Palace, Spain. The note choices, etc. were unlike anything I would normally do, so it really helped to open my mind to new possibilities.
I'm happy to know that I already used a lot of the compositional techniques you mentioned on my songs and I'm influenced by the composers you mentioned. That means my songs are probably unique in comparassion to other current bands.
my biggest mistake was no playing guitar by years, thanks covid for put me on the road again. excellent videos, by far the most original guitar channel here, makes me laugh and learn too
a tut le monde or how you spell that. it's off of Youthanasia. I recommend King Crimson for genre perspective. IMO fripp invented black metal on their 2nd album in like 1970 "wake of Poseidon" "the hand of sceiron" whoooooo . you'll see what I mean.. also you played the "lamp chord" on the pukelele. Walking notes like in the James bond bit are one of my favorite things. (beginning of hangar 18 does a neat walk. I love that progression) This video is so loaded with good info.
Whoever is debating pulling the trigger on becoming a patron in patreon - DO IT!!! So worth it. I am taking the stuff from 2016 and working my way up from there. Super fun.
So, yesterday I visited another musician who owns tons of musical instruments and we jammed together. I was so out of practice on guitar that I couldn't really do lead very well at all, I was much slower and sloppier in my guitar playing. I managed to play much better on the drums which I have only dabbled with in all my life as a musician. So, my biggest musical mistake would be having long bouts of not being able to play guitar and getting rusty. (Losing speed, accuracy and cleanliness in my playing).
Thanks for this awesome video, lots of great composition tips and you structured the info perfectly (Also the resulting song was killer). Is the motif you used here the first part of Ricercar a 6?
If my memory serves me correctly, the theme was the one Bach got from Frederik the Great to imrovise a fugue from. Bach later used it to compose his ”musical offering” (a collection of fugues and stuff) to Frederik.
Can we see some videos on combining guitar with instruments outside of a typical Metal combination? And also with creating different arrangements around those instruments?
To say the truth, i made the mistake of closing to 2 bands (A7X & DragonForce) back in time, an the 2 bands keep switching, but never more than 2. Lately i been increasing the practice and composition, i found myself in a spot where i know how to sound like 2 bands, then, open to new music (game soundtracks, diferent styles of music, not only metal), and helped a lot to composing and listening in general, so yeah, open to new stuff people!
What's your biggest musical mistake/accident?

My biggest accident was during a similar exam, but for the drum ^^ I forgot all of my sheets and i was rehearsing with the other students that also where taking this exam, but it wasn't my drum teacher that was doing the rehearsal (more of a warming-up by the way ^^') so when we were playing snare rudiments, he used some terms that i hadn't learn that time (but which i did later ^^) ^^' It was pretty tough for me to keep my composure because i was the only one in that case ^^ But i have to say, it surely helped me to realise that practicing wasn't the only thing that i would need to become a musician, that i would also need to improve my knowledge about theory ^^ Well, it certainly had worked because since that day, every time i heard about a theory point that didn't mean anything to me (that i didn't understood or that i simply hasn't learn) i did my best to learn it ^^
So yes these are still mistakes and accidents, but, in a certain way, these are the events that made us improve as a musician ^^

Riff 'til you're a stiff at the very least.
This man is a pure genius.. he is a gem...
I concur
Yep!
Indeed
Never thought I'd hear someone take a bit of Bach's crab canon and use it to write metal with. Awesome work, Shred
thanks dude

sudden gust in my apartment
That was pretty badass, you should do more original full songs 🤘

Awesome video. Most guys on RUclips just shred a bunch and hand out a drill once in a while, you’re actually taking the time to inform on songwriting and composition, and it’s appreciated.
Also, the hair whipping in the wind is glorious, clearly the source of your shredding ability.

My biggest mistake was to play without understanding the theoretical underpinnings. Shred you are helping me fill in my gaps in knowledge.
That was very cool. That tapping at the end with the spy cliche was my favorite. It was an amazing tension builder.
The finished piece deserves to be in a motion picture. Would make for a kickass backdrop to a Netflix gothic series or something...
fiquitoyunque haha, hell Yeah
You're one of the best musician creators on youtube. You're highly educated and sincere about what you're trying to teach. I admire that.
comment of the day

Yes, bro, I am in to mixing it up too, I study jazz a lot and don't even know if I like but it all makes you a better player
Easily the best new channel for me, interesting theories! Been playing for 16 years now and i finally got new inspiration from ur videos!
That shot with your hair in the wind was just majestic
It was missing tuba flatulance though
"Listen to other styles to improve yourself" and "learn how to play what you hear inside your head." Hands down the two best pieces of advice I've ever heard.
Definitely a mind opening and question answering video for me but yes way over my head
that tone row was so sick!

Great lesson my friend!!!!!!!!!!
Still fairly new but the three bands that have influenced the type of music I want to make are The Mars Volta, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and GOJIRA
The only one other than you that breaks this stuff to pieces was Troy Stetina, good job!
So, yesterday I visited another musician who owns tons of musical instruments and we jammed together.
I was so out of practice on guitar that I couldn't really do lead very well at all, I was much slower and sloppier in my guitar playing.
I managed to play much better on the drums which I have only dabbled with in all my life as a musician.
So, my biggest musical mistake would be having long bouts of not being able to play guitar and getting rusty. (Losing speed, accuracy and cleanliness in my playing).
Your content is amazing bruh
Thanks for this awesome video, lots of great composition tips and you structured the info perfectly (Also the resulting song was killer). Is the motif you used here the first part of Ricercar a 6?
dude that's it!
If my memory serves me correctly, the theme was the one Bach got from Frederik the Great to imrovise a fugue from. Bach later used it to compose his ”musical offering” (a collection of fugues and stuff) to Frederik.
