    The One Month Challenge

    I love this challenge! And I have the perfect project for it, actually I just started it yesterday without knowing about this challenge :ROFLMAO: . So I've been playing for pretty much exactly 1 year now (start of corona related restrictions -.-) and the one song that I always come back to is...

    Hello, Kittens :)

    Social media can be super addictive and toxic. I'm glad you were able to pull through all the terrible things and are doing much better now. :):)

    Comment by 'chris_is_cool' in media 'Synner Sunday Riff - on a tuesday night'

    That sounds pretty cool. 😁 (y) You should definitely make something out of this. Honestly, my first association was Metallica - Fight Fire With Fire, in particular the rhythm in the "B section" of the riff (for example at 0:14). But its just a small similarity that reminded me of it, it's not...

    Show me your guitar babies

    My battle axe is a Solar E1.6 FBB. I got it last october, and I count it as my first real guitar. Before that I played an Ibanez Gio GRG121DX, but I sold it. My Solar is everything I need in a guitar at the moment. It is pretty heavy (probably heavier than any Les Paul), but well balanced, neck...

    What are you currently listening to?

    Autotune is availabe as a plugin for DAWs, but you would probably need to install it. It is a vocal effects unit that is most famous for its pitch correction. So if the vocalist sings slightly sharp or flat, it could correct the pitch to the intended note, but it will also even it out, so there...

    Comment by 'chris_is_cool' in media 'Two Pentatonic Exercises 💫 Do you know others I could add?'

    Love it, very clean :love: ! The first exercise is one of my go-to warm ups as well, but if you want to take it a step further, start including more shapes of the scale. So the way I'm doing it, I do the exercise going up in the first scale position (like you did), then go one note higher and...

    Another alphabet game

    I find this one much easier than the other one with songs 😅:ROFLMAO:. To make it a bit more fun, I'm sticking to my favorite decade, the 80s: Autograph - All I'm gonna take Bon Jovi - Bad Medicine Cinderella - Shake Me David Hasselhoff - Looking For Freedom Europe - Rock the Night Foreigner -...

    Intermediate What gives modes their unique sound?

    The way I think about it, when you play in D Dorian (write a chord progression in D Dorian, improvise a solo over that), you need to think that your Key is D minor, NOT C Major!!! You are in D Minor, Dm is your home chord... BUT you are using the collection of notes, that makes up C major. So...
