@michaelk1589 yup 5 semesters of ear training. Aural or Audiation is essential esp for guitarists that don't read!

@@DaveBermanKeys Mahalo Dave!

@Charles53412 in 2024 it's a highly debateable topic, as seen in this comments section. That being said, I don't regret going! I'm just not going to try to convince anyone else to go, esp with how $$$ it has become in the last 10 years.

@@jeffzafiropoulos2393 I applied for a few jobs at Berklee. They threw me a few "opportunities" unpaid. Still yet, I don't regret my choices!!

@@begobvi Mahalo!!!

I have had many requests for this and I plan on getting a tab done at some point, its just very tedious as I am not very tech savvy and the program is a pain to use. thank you for watching!!!

Baboian is the man! Did pro music so I could graduate in 7 semesters

Thanks! Yes it's never gonna be easy. I'm lucky to have the opportunity to play, some cultures poor people are forbidden from music

@@ravilambmusic what? which ones? im actually from a very poor country and i really want to know the answer to this, never heard of such a thing.

​@@akirathedog777 Why is this hard to imagine? In some places, you can get killed for SAYING the wrong things. It's not impossible

Will Do!!!!

Thank you for your kind words!!

I knew a bunch of Metallica riffs lol!! Yea I didn't know how to read or nothing but I really liked music. I did a video on the Berklee audition that night answer this question a bit more too. Hope this helps!!!

Is this one of those online courses? I don't recommended them. Those "certificates" don't really count for anything and are kinda seen as a joke. You will def learn a lot but you could spend half the amount on a good private teacher and get more out of it.

Berklee has become this mega corporate music giant figuring all sorts of ways to cash in on the legacy name, Berklee online being a recent iteration.

Thank you for this information. I will definitely look into other ways of gaining information and learning. Mahalo, Larry Jay

Mahalo!!! I am going to get one done for this within the next few months

Looking forward to it ;)@@ravilambmusic

@@ravilambmusic Did the tab ever get released ? ;)

@@magellanmccartney2187 Thank you for your patience!!! I really do want to get the tab done, unfortunately I've been so busy but I still plan on it mahalo!!!

I'm surprised anyone is watching more than a few minutes of my rambling 😄

I think the time limit is 3min. Shorter the better. Transcriptions are a plus but not necessary. Good luck!

Mahalo! Thank you so much for the feedback!!

I dearly miss SC!!! Happy New Year to you all!!!

Now Berklee online, that's a scam. I definitely recommend playing with other people in real life versus being alone in your bedroom during your musical journey. Even if you are just doing electronic production, having in person criticism is crucial to growth.

@@ravilambmusic Yes 1000% agree with playing with others. That's probably the only good thing coming out of school, being surrounded by other passionate musicians. But I guess there's cheaper ways to do it also

Thank you!!

Thank you!!! Always room for improvement tho

You can do it! Thank you so much!!!

😊 thank you. I am lucky to get to share times of making music with wonderful people like yall!!! Love you SAKOYANA!

Thank You!!

Yay!!! so exciting, let me know how your adventure is going!!!

Thank you!!! Hope you and your family are safe and well. Happy holidays

Thanks for the great reply!!! I hustled my ass off and worked and paid my own rent and school, I left Berklee with a little over 40k in loans. That was 10+ years ago tho, I lived in the hood and my rent was $400/mo. Totally different world new college students face. But I guess what I'm saying is, I could have gotten way more out of my college experience if I didn't work and lived on campus, but I would have been out waaaaay more money. Can't have it all at once in life. I'm now a father and now have the opportunity to be present in my children's life because I don't work traditional hours. But believe me I considered electrical training during covid 😄 🤣

@@ravilambmusic Music isn't worth risking your life for. Hood life is never fun.

Less than an electrician or plumber?! Try fast food restaurant worker.

@@yishihara55527 haha yes I don't like hood life!

@ayakosaito7323 haha yea I probably make less than a well paid fast food worker. But I get to be a musician that doesn't smell like French fries. You can't have everything in life.

Thank you!!!

Thanks for all your support!

Thank you!!!

Mahalo!!!

omg! i guess its a common name, that used to be my old bass players name. now that dude could play, and he didnt go to berklee...lol

​@@ravilambmusic ​ You are lucky to be so unaware of Tyler Larson, or as he calls himself, "Music is Win". (BIT) He is the most shining example of why it is a bad idea to go to Berklee. They suck whatever soul you had right out to the point where you can only make unlistenable academic wank, or you try to tone it down but you don't know how, and so you end up writing beginner-level trash that sounds like the Home Depot theme. UA-cam Tyler Larson is something of a lolcow. Follow the parentheticals if you want to find his masterpiece of trash, "Have Heart", the most ironically named song in the world. It is literally the Home Depot theme song but with lyrics that sound like they were generated by ChatGPT2.0. He got dunked on so hard that he removed it from youtube, spotify, soulseek, and his discography. But it's too late, because the internet is forever. I think any musician considering going to Berklee should pull up that video as mandatory viewing before they take the plunge. It is an exemplary cautionary tale

(CHUTE)

Final parenthetical must be broken up into two posts because of course. A (DOT)terel is a small migratory Eurasian plover

The COManche are a proud indigenous people

Awesome!!! Keep jamming my friend!

Agreed. I can't imagine any other path to have taken.

Thank you for your reply!! the core curriculum is the boot camp that turned me from a guitarist into a musician. I will never regret 4 semesters of ear training with paul stiller, I hope he is still there, as well as all the instrumental labs etc...Its counterpoint and trad harm that will very rarely get used esp since most music depts are not expanding classical theory and instead teach electronic production. I also paid for all of my schooling and worked every possible way to make it work (private lessons, service industry and tutoring at the learning center). I reaalllly reaaaly wanted to live on campus but never could swing the cost. I left berklee with a little over 40k in loans but thats because I prioritized working and paying for school over making friends. I really regret that part, I took classes with several people who are HUGE now and I never had the time to just hang and make friends and jam. I definitely made a bunch of friends at the jobs I worked at. But no one at berklee even dared to go to the part of roxbury that i lived in. my rent was less than $400/mo. Tution was less than half of what it is now. I am not trying to rub it in..Times are different now and I truly sympathize with anyone trying to go to school in the current economy. Cant have it all at once, I am now in a totally different point in my life, I have young children and instead of prioritizing work and music and money, I spend as much time as possible with them and being outdoors. Thank you again for your respectful reply, I really appreciate the insight!!!
