Description : Basically iv been trying to learn a new style of playing on acoustic guitar..basically you play a chord and tap out a melody. I came up with this after a daft mess about with the style. Im nowhere near good at this style yet but i hope to get better!.
This track is me and my acoustic...and the birds from outside my room that wouldn't shush while i was recording...so decided to record them and stick them in the track to fill it out a bit.
let me know what you think!

This is very cool, a bit like Antoine Dufour, and Andy McKee if you don't know who they are check them out on Youtube they are amazing and make me wish I never learned to play guitar because they are so good. I always wanted to play a tapping style but it is way out of my league. Great Job on this sounds very good, nice and relaxing.

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hey! Ye iv heard of them both...they both bloody brilliant! You can play this style..its not very hard haha you just need a lil practice and you can do it..trust me :)

Thanks for listening and the reviewwwwwww

Adding in the birds....brilliant.

Made me feel like I was chillin' with you in a beautiful park. Wanted some lyrics to sing along :D (Well, probably just some oooh's and aaaah's to harmonize and not take away from the guit.)

Hi Chris,

So nice to hear acoustic guitar playing cleanly. I have a Mitchell one I bought last year.

'Tapping' is what I call what your doing. Steve Vai and many other rock guitarist also do it. I have done some, but I am not good at it as it takes practice. However, it sounds like your on your way.

The birds in the background weren't a distraction to me. Even added to the ambiance to it all I feel, if anything.

I think you did a very nice job and hope you'll do more.
Randy

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Via is pretty cool..i prefer satriani over via though...via is too flashy haha

Ye it is more or less just tapping while holding a chord...its pretty easy to be honest!

Mitchell guitar woo iv seen a few of them...theyre pretty! i own a Takamine myself...i love it to bits! best acoustic iv ever played...i had to buy it haha

Thank you for the review and thanks for listening randy!

victormusic01x 6th Jul 2009 05:47 - 17 years ago

chrilsh, I have to first agree that your clean tone and the way you have worked on developing this chord-melody tapping makes this so enjoyable to listen to and even more so if one is also a guitarist...beautiful melody and textures, this is great work!
thanks for sharing this man!

Chris

MLautens 3rd Jul 2009 00:24 - 17 years ago

Nice style, nice touch. This track has great atmosphere and a relaxing effect. Seems like a great deal better than just "messing around" to me. Good work!

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

haha it was just messing about :p sometimes i get massive spurts of creativity..and the rest of the time i cant write ##### haha :p
But i am proud of this song....i like pretty sounding things haha

Thanks for taking the time to listen

I have attention deficit when it comes to music so it takes a lot to keep my interest. This definitely did with the variety and the changes that happen right when they are needed. It was relaxing and yet musically interesting at the same time. That is perfect. Put out more like this. I also like the bird background. I made me feel like you were tapping out a tune on the front porch on a summer day. Awesome. Kper

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

haha thanks for the comment buddy. i do often go into the back garden and play guitar...usually try and draw something in from different surroundings...now and then it works :p
Im glad it kept you interested and i will try and make more songs like this!

Thanks for listening buddy

Chris

theonetruebrew 24th Jun 2009 18:15 - 17 years ago

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks again buddy!

sobstory 23rd Jun 2009 02:07 - 17 years ago

Man this is seriously awesome...great tone and feel. Very nicely done. I would love to collaborate on some tracks. This is very clean...great recording the birds are a good touch or maybe more robots. I have a track with frogs.

Good Job,

Martin

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

JDOT2006 22nd Jun 2009 22:35 - 17 years ago

This is the very first acoustic track that Im fav'ng. I mainly do hip hop and chill out but on occasion I'll stop and check out an Acoustic track ... Well, the peacefullness you acquired with this display is unmatched, for real. I really dont know what else to say about this other than the ambiance of the birds tying everything together, it worked nicely. I have a track that Im almost done with where I incorporated birds within a forest and after hearing this Im sticking with that. If I were you, run with this style as well as your others. Keep doin your thing.

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

wow thanks for faving it buddy and thanks for giving it a listen! il have a listen to your track when its done..i dont really give hip hop a chance to be honest but im gonna have a dabble :p
Thank you for your kind words!

Chris

imortal 22nd Jun 2009 21:50 - 17 years ago

Even tho the birds were a nuisance to you. They add a really great ambiance to the composition. Beautiful acoustic playing! Liked the tapped harmonics and the reverb.

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

haha ye they wer doing my head in...but i thought sod it il use em!..took ages to get rid of the rest of the noise...like the cars and stuff...had to EQ them out lol
thanks for a nice comment man :)

It is a little quiet tho, sorry.
Also- I don't actually know if 8Bit Chiptune is the right genre... whatever.
