Solo - Waiting 4 Bae - Live 12.16.23
Переглядів 958 місяців тому
Here's a solo clip from the other night at Triumph Brewing Co. in Red Bank, NJ 12.16.23 The @muscletough5448 song is "Waiting 4 Bae" from our Modern Romance album. The solo section is in Db minor. The "No Quarter" was off the cuff - who knows what we will stumble into! Effects-wise, I was having much fun using the @ChaseBlissAudio mood and the Count To Five to access some wild, pitch-effect mad...

"Oracle Door" solo - Muscle Tough Live in Asbury Park 8/24/23 at The Wonder Bar. I liked how this solo came out, and I figured I would share something here on YT like I usually do on IG (@Friendshipwizard). For anyone who caught my rig rundown*, this song is a great example of "The Switch" where Ross Bellenoit and I switch octaves; he assumes the bass role and I take over melodic stuff. I wrote...

Bass Cover - Minor Swing - Django Reinhardt / Hubert Rostaing
Переглядів 4853 роки тому
Hey all! HUGE Django fan here. Particularly of the Django Hubert Rostaing (clarinet) era. Here's my stab at both of their solos on "Minor Swing". I worked on this for awhile, and after accepting that'll never be 'perfect', I've decided to share! Hope you enjoy and take some inspiration from it all. *I do not own the rights to this music* *Not intent to profit off of this music* *Simply a fan*

*I do not own the rights to this music* Here's my interpretation of the heartbreakingly beautiful Remember Me (Lullaby) from Pixar's "Coco". The song was written by Gabriella Flores, Gael García Bernal, and Libertad García Fonzi. I actually haven't seen the movie! A student of mine requested to learn this song, and I really fell in love with it. I actually wept while I was learning the changes....

    Do you use any fancy switchers to get pedals out of the chain? Does your clean sound lose anything? The serek is active?

      No switchers! Just the ABY for amp selection. I'm SURE there is some clean loss, but it's worth it to get all these sounds. The Serek is passive with Nordstrand Zen Blades!
