JOIN THE DISCORD VIEW THREADI see what you are saying, we're not gonna do ALL in one lol!Don't you think this might get a little complicate to organize and put in one video? Maybe we could do a couple of different one with different themes. We could do a "simple solo collab" now where we all just play something tiny over a backing track and then do smaller collabs like "duets", "rhythm vs lead" or one with crazy chords for Ids ;P
Just my thoughts on this right now
I think you should use the same chord progression but change up the chords to match the style.. alas 13ths 11ths 9ths for the jazz part.. normal power chords metal rock.. acoustic open chords.. etc. That way everything technically works together and we all can ideally work off the same chords n9 matter the style. We dont want people thinking too much where they are not sure what scale to follow or whatever when the beat changes. Again just thinking out loud here. But I feel the more simplistic the better in the end for the newer people to follow suit.I'll try to make a couple of different backing tracks in different styles and then we can choose the best ones and then combine them or whatever. I already made a rock/metal loop version and posted it in the chat on instagram. Now I'm trying to make a blues backing track. I'm open for suggestions for chord progressions.
I like the duel idea or even a duet. Like Jak said, maybe a rhythm player can play acoustic, while someone plays a melodic part, or we could have two people harmonize.
@Filip is the one making the backing track, and @Ids had already talked about composing some motiffs.
First things first though, let's get to the sign up deadline and then we start planning what we'll play once we know how many people we got.
I think if we had multiple people making the back track that's ok too. I just think the people making it gotta work together to make sure the tracks work together. But I dont see an issue there.I read the whole thing, all the replies. I am actually more interested in doing rock style backing (not the entire backing track, just a portion of it) than a solo, so that anyone can play whatever they want over it. I am thinking about about types of riffs which are played like during the middle of the song or riffs during the verse of a song. If that is ok, I will upload some ideas in the riff section, what type of riffs I am thinking.
Eh, not all of us could write our own songs lol. I know I sure as hell cant !An idea of a song is nice. But realistically.. you guys could write your own songs anytime you want. I'd like to see students come together more often to work on things together. I think it's make for some fun results.
I'd be open to write anything with another student. Relays to the site or not.
jak I also lovedThat's why in the video I suggested doing several videos because it'll get too long
yay !!!Since all the coolbeginners of this school like @Dominik Graeber and @Alicia Willis are up for this I wanna be a part of it too.
I know I‘ll regret doing this, I ‘ll pull my hair off and crylike a baby when I come up with nothing nice to play, but I know I have to try and I’m pretty sure I can get some help from you intermediate and advanced friends.

You won't regret it. We will help one another.Since all the coolbeginners of this school like @Dominik Graeber and @Alicia Willis are up for this I wanna be a part of it too.

Actually, that is literally the reason why Ids is composing the motifs, so that the people who don't know how to create their own melodies can learn the motif and be a part of this.I'd just hate to see people step out because their motif or melody isnt up to par to his.. or they can't think of something to follow..
I would join but im not really good and im not that good making up some solos because im not that at stage yet.
Love it! Please tag me so I can see them!I read the whole thing, all the replies.

After the sign up deadline we will ask everyone to list their best abilities and the styles they feel most comfortable playing so we can plan who will play what.Cool. I was also thinking of making a plan, whoever makes it, before the project starts. So, lets say we have 20 players in this project. So if each players gets 20 sec, that makes this collab video 6 min 40 sec long. Then we can divide this video in sections like jazz, rock, blues, metal etc. If there are 5 categories, then each category gets 80 secs. Then these 20 players can form groups to play in different categories. So basically dividing this big project into smaller projects. Of course, someone has to be there to make sure everything is seamless and cohesive. Just an idea
I think it's best if we leave the back track to @Filip Tomiša , he was chosen for a reason. To add more people to this task might only complicate his workflow and that is not fair to him.I think if we had multiple people making the back track that's ok too.

Yup .. then we look at time slots and pick where we wanna go. You could team up and do a dual. Or solo yourself.. etc.Cool.

I'm just saying some people feel more co dissent chugging a riff over a solo. They may feel more comfortable to get into the rhythm over lead.I think it's best if we leave the back track to @Filip Tomiša , he was chosen for a reason.

He already said he is open to listen to suggestions and will work on different versions before we choose the final one.
