It’s crazy how there are no lyrics but you still managed to translate exactly how I was feeling at the time when I wrote this. You have a gift. Thanks for this wonderful comment.

@@rileyplaysguitarthe fact I was able to extrapolate this from your beautiful work means you have the gift not me friend. Have yourself a wonderful Christmas. :)

Thank you! I’m gonna try 🤘

Drop D on an 8 string 🤘

thanks for the review. merry Christmas homie

@@rileyplaysguitar about the bends, if you want to bend a little bit out of tune (in a microtone), which Calle Thomér sometimes does, make sure that the microtone that you are bending to is in the same mode as the rest of the song, for example, you are in D minor, you can bend a G to a G+ microtone and it will sound slightly out of tune but in the same key/mode as the rest of the song

I appreciate you expanding upon your previous sentiment and providing some practical, constructive criticism with potential solutions. I don’t see that too often. That being said, this particular riff is written with the intent to make you feel a little uncomfortable and not be entirely “in tune”. Whether or not that comes across to the listener is subjective. Again, I appreciate the points you made as they are valid and you’re clearly knowledgeable on the subject matter. I hope you continue to engage with my channel because you’ve provided me with some solid thinking points. Cheers!

Thanks dude! Serum can range from being very simple to use to very complex. I basically just sift through presets (there are so many) until I find something that works. I almost always find something that sounds great that needs minimal post-processing. You can delve deep into crafting a really unique sound with the options it provides but most of that is beyond me lol. I rely on it for leads, ambient layers, guitar layering for some thick sounding guitars, and sub-bass enhancements, so just about everything. I use rent-to-own through Splice so I never felt the sting of paying full price upfront, but it’s been worth the money. If you can find a free trial, I highly recommend doing that. I appreciate the follow! You can follow me on IG “@rileyguitar”, but this channel is where I upload the majority of stuff I’m working on. Thanks again 🤘

Thanks, Chapman! I just want to say the guitar I used in this video is by far the best guitar I’ve ever owned. Thanks for making such a nice instrument 🤘

🫡🤘

thank you! you all make some awesome music

On it

Jingle thalls!

thank you. that sums up how I’ve been feeling and I’m glad it comes through in the music

Go listen to stoort neer brother, you won't regret

I love em but haven’t listened in years. I also highly recommend Karmanjakah

Gotta love Ionian shit 💪🏻💪🏻 neverending chord progressions and what not

ohhhhh I like this. thank you!

thanks my dawg

🫶

I appreciate that big time

same here. and I thank you even more!

me too

🥲

@rileyplaysguitar also I'm sure you've listened to it like 10 times already, but you check out vola's new album?

Absolutely, so good. I’ve listened to Tray probably a thousand times by now

It’s been awhile, I’ll look up the project and get back to you

@rileyplaysguitar thanks mate!!

not as sick as your username

thanks!

Thank you! I never really got into them until someone made a similar comparison awhile ago. You should check out my song “cooler heads”, it has much more of the Belmont vibes

@ will do

Dude thank you so much. Someone else mentioned them in a comment on this video and I’d never heard of them. Flying was the first track I listened to after that and now I’m absolutely in love. “Listening” is such an incredible song and is basically my dream sound for progressive metal. Your comparison makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

And smiles :)

Someone else shared a similar sentiment on this video and I’d never heard of them. Needless to say, they’re one of my favorites now. Thank you!

Thanks djentdad! I’ve been playing guitar for over a decade but have only been producing my own stuff for about two years. I still have a lot of progress to make but feel I’ve come a long way in that time. I just subbed to you and checked out some of your stuff, you’ve got a really interesting vibe going on with your music. I’m really curious to see where you’ll be in a year. Just keep writing and trying new things and practicing. With each new “thing” you create, you will get better and better. Thanks again and I hope you stick around the channel for more music!

@@rileyplaysguitar there's so much to be learned!!!

Indeed, so much to discover!

Interesting. I usually associate “happy” music with the major scale.

@rileyplaysguitar Oh it's "Happy riff"... I thought it was "Heavy riff".

Ahh yes, that would certainly confuse me as well

If I could frame a comment, this would be the one. You are awesome, thank you.

Thanks gmatty! Your text face makes me smile too

I’ve been there too, I suppose. Some people’s opinions matter more than others (in their mind). Thanks for the kind words!

I thank thee

I love you

My man, even as a joke that’s still a compliment lol

@ and I mean it as a compliment to the fullest, this was awesome, should make djent riffs to sleep to, study to, read to, etc LMAO

Thank you! You might be on to something 🤔

I’m going with you!

Time to get nasty

The ultimate compliment. I’m glad you enjoyed!

Thank you! VOLA has been one of my favorites for quite some time now

my thoughts exactly

Thanks Nik!
