    They Let Me Out Of My Cage Early Today

    one star I give this one star. It sounds like a lifeless machine thats been programmed to sound like a piano out of tune. Sorry, but this is just out and out shit and an insult to musicians the world over who actully PLAY and not Program. Ozzy Osbourne once mailed a popular hotel chain to...

    Interested in an "easy on the ears tune"? Please tell me what ya think! Really.

    fine....fuck airplay. Pump Gas the rest of your life. Look, I wanna clear something up here. For starters, when you ask for opinions some will be what your wanting to hear, and some will be truthful expressions from the listener. What you do with them is everything. Kramer, jumped in and...

    Interested in an "easy on the ears tune"? Please tell me what ya think! Really.

    2 stars I read this at your site: "His experience comes from playing many years in bars and clubs." Look, the bar owners wanna sell drinks and the people wanna dance and hopefully get laid. This shit would send 'em out the door and down to the bar with a band in 4/4 time and a singer, even...

    bad wisdom - hard rock (a new drum and bass tune)

    two stars I'm giving you two stars. This is not hard rock. This isn't even close to being hard rock. This sounds like the music from NHL 2000 by EA Sports while the credits roll. I think Bad Wisdom is a good computer generated effort, but in the tradition of Hard Rock this fails miserably and...

    Do you believe that there are rules to good melody writing?

    Toker41: "Good and Bad are a matter of opinion." Thats right. And it was a matter of opinion that made "How you Remind Me" a number one song and it's writer a multimillionaire. Its the audience who decides whether or not your melody is good, not you. And believe me, a matte rof opinion on the...

    Do you believe that there are rules to good melody writing?

    need to clarify are there rules to writing a melody? No. are there rules to writing a GOOD melody? Yes. there is only two kinds of melodies. Good ones and bad ones. The first rule of writing a good melody is use more than one note. If you don't follow that rule, you dont get a melody...

    Coming up with riffs on the guitar

    get a drum machine. mutate a well known riff into somethin unrecognizeable...like Cobain did to More than a Feeling. get a nice tone. Obviously you'll write a different riff with a clean tone than you would if you had a driven sustaining tone. Sometimes tone and sound WILL dictate what you...

    How to get that Stoner Rock Guitar Sound ??

    well, I think it's definately a humbucker pick up you hear. probably some of the tone rolled off, very unlikely a flat out tone knob on 10. Im sure the amp, amp settings, room, mic, mic angle, ears etc also playa role.

    Hate the "Greats"

    Hendrix? C'mon, you can't simply classify rhythm playing like "Little Wing," "Angel," "Belly Button Window," or his songwriting skills as "noise".. I doubt anybody here criticizing Jimi can play or write with equal skill or innovation as Jimi. But, taste is in the eye of the beholder. I like...

I like the bar to hang there and move freely instead of winding it wqround the extra rotation to make it...

    Taste is everything, technique means nothing

    well, vai has always been an oddball. whitesnake and vai was a wierd pairing. but c'mon, there was some good songs on the album. Wings of the Storm is great. Kittens Got Claws is good. The album was called Slip Of The Tongue. I remember it. It wasn't bad. I prefer "Eat 'Em And Smile" Vai is...

    Taste is everything, technique means nothing

    Steve Vai invented scales. yes Chris, diatonic modal scales have been around forever, but as Steve himself explained it in a 93 interview. "I created 16 eqaul divisions to the octave in the key of 'E. I've created scales with 9 eqaul notes to an octave." By the way, the 10 note scale Steve...

    Taste is everything, technique means nothing

    I'd say Jimi Hendrix invented whammy bar techniques that previously weren't around. I'd say Eddie Van Halen was the first to orchestrate the tapping thing within a rock context into a technique that previously eluded the rock community. Stanley Jordan is not a rock n roller. He did not write...
