Hey guys, if anyone has any of their own advice please comment here. I’m going to pin this so that people can learn from each other. There’s a vast sea of knowledge here that we can all tap into and share!
Try those “shut your eyes and feel” solos as well as try something “written and purposeful”. Take the strengths from the one you’re good at and work on the weaknesses. Got to be self aware and honest
Fiddle with your tuning, leads to interesting variations and new lines to play.
Ok heres a challenge. Make a backing track using every note in a scale. Dont use 1 4 5. Use all 7 chords. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. Then play over that track.
I put on those UA-cam "Beats for Studying" or Live Neo Soul Radio or Jazz Cafe Radio etc... Essentially they are neverending backing tracks that change every minute. I can do that for hours straight.
5:49 "embracing discomfort" is probably to fastest way to improve as a guitarist... Thanks again Rob, I always enjoy your videos :)
Nah, downloading Tramaine masterclasses on JTC is
When Rob goes clean he needs "more gain" 😂
Shhhh!!! Don’t tell anyone
Love the new comedy edge coming out in this video, cuts through the "feel the notes through your soul" type of deep stuff nicely.
The intro was literally my life.
Loving your ethos, and the backing track. So far I'm struggling to fit my best ukelele licks in, but hey, it's all a learning experience....
Cheers, Rob. Just getting the kids to bed then I’m off to my isolation chamber (man cave in the garden) to get some practice in. Will give this a go.
Hey, I've just got the kids to bed and come down to my man cave (isolation chamber in the garden), and stumbled upon this video and your comment!
Wonder how many others are like us! 😀
@@LukeReynoldsMusic_13another one here!!
Give the “complete load of 💩 “ guy a raise 😂. Great advice Rob, if you could summarise to 3 key takeaways? Set mindset before playing, limitations create opportunities, don’t jam - create? Or anything else?
Applies to everyone in a band really. Ta, Dan (just in case anyone thinks you’re replying to your own vid).
Ha ha thanks man
Now THAT'S what I call an ad! ❤️
Just what I needed, never thought about the approach to give myself handicaps and I love it, once again words of wisdom. Cheers mate
Glad it was helpful bro :-)
Killing me with a blue/black Ghost Fret! So beautiful! In "my" color scheme!
Very useful, thank you Sir!
I found that really useful, thanks!
Just wanted to say love the writing and editing on this one. Super entertaining stuff
Love this!! Also I feel attacked 😂.. I felt like you were talking to me. Like a personal lesson. I definitely will jam out on the back track. Have a great night 🤓✌️
I listened to some of your music for the first time, it’s amazing, really love, In the Sunshine and Chromatic Aberration.
Here’s how i programs drums; ive used the toontrack products for nearly a decade, and it has been a great help to learn drum programming. However, for tones, i cannot recommend Spectre Digital’s “extinction level event” drums higher. They are incredibly accurate, mix ready, and highly detailed drums. When it comes to programming, if looking at a blank midi section is intimidating,start with a midi drum file premade that fits close to your desired feel. Then, edit as needed. Also, think like a drummer- i dont mean show up late, unprepared, and missing cymbals, i mean, think about how every hit is a different velocity relevant to what’s being played. If you stick every note at 127 velocity, it will not sound real. Even if you’re using the grid, and dont prefer ‘humanizing’ the performance, using different velocities during busier parts of the drum performance can add a level of real authenticity…
And, if you’re starting from scratch, try this; do 8 bars- start with the kick only. Track 8 bars of your rhythm. Then, as you loop the playback, adjust the kick to your played rhythm part. Then add snare. Finally, add high hosts, and dont be afraid to experiment with open hats, foot clasps, or different parts of the ride, china or splash cymbals. Finally, for this 8 bars, delete any hits that clash- make sure you’re playing like a human being- take out any hats that interfere with cymbal his. And cymbals or hats that interfere with fills.
In the end, it is as much about thinking like a drummer when you write midi as it is haven’t excellent drum sounds- its tedious, but its worth the effort!
When the cats away!!!
Love the bottle and lube !! Made me laugh
This man is psychic 😅
Those little bike wheels are stabilisers.
Good video and I’m just about to follow you on Spotify
Thank you, thank you - that was driving me mad
Where I'm from....."training wheels"
@@madadami81 Training wheels, in my world.
Insane soloing.
Thanks bro, much appreciated. :-)
Killer!!!!!!
The most profound thing a guitar tutor said to me, and a comment that has been forged into my brain ever since, is:
''As a musician, you have control over two things. Note value, of which there are twelve notes, and note duration which ranges from zero to infinity. Timing is everything, that IS phrasing.''
I guess what he was getting at was that, it's not so much what you play, it's how you put your personal being into what you play, and how your personality, deep down, interprets the music from your brain, through your heart and soul, and finally to your fingers.
I think we've all had that moment when you are jamming to a great backing track, you play a lick or phrase that surprises even yourself, and you think '' where on Earth did that come from?'' I'd say it comes from the heart, via the soul. I don't even do drugs, and I'm sounding like Neil from The Young Ones. Hands up who would like some lentil casserole? 👩🦰
Hey Rob, those are some great ideas I like it when somebody can put into words what I'm thinking musically! You definitely hit the mark. What a great drum beat I don't know that I've ever jammed to one like that I mean I've dreamed to strange drum beats just not sure if I remember this one?😊 Really good stuff really good ideas and learning techniques. Haven't gotten to Spotify yet but I'm all over the UA-cam and Facebook algorithms!!!!!!!!!💯
Thanks again You didn't blow my mind but you definitely got me thinkin.....
thanks rob, good advice i always respond to and with reguard to spotify nope
The Żubrówka got me laughing! Great choice, are you a fan of Polish Vodka?
Żubrówka? Cheers from Poland Rob!
Training wheels. The little wheels that go on a bike to keep you from falling over while learning to ride a bike are called training wheels.
In the UK they are called stabilisers.
Trainer wheels Rob, trainer wheels!!!!!!😂
First time i’m this early sooooo….First!!!
I don't have a little doll angel for a child but I do have 2 sons!!!. Soo I may steal the title... ( definitely not the improv because, uh, just no. I'm not worthy and I couldn't pull it off even if I tried 😂 )
The title for me would be :
Knight Sons. 🤷♂️ 8=)
We call those wheels "Training Wheels".
first minute made me laugh
Where did the sun go? It's bloody up here in the north! Nigh on not setting for two months!
Hello Rob , im a complete beginner just getting into playing guitar , do you have any advice for me ? What should i start with , what should i practice, how i should go about starting out cause rn i dont really know anything and its hard for me to find something to start with and its a little overwhelming . Any andvice is greatly apreciated . Thanks
Someone needs to create an ai backing track creator for musicians to practice. Might be out there already but I'm lazy and prefer to type instead of search.
I really like some of your guitars, the all black one and the blue explorer type guitar but prefer it in black. I am in the USA. Any retail sellers here?
Monkey Shoulder on the settee Mr Chapman? Hmmm, nice :)
Backing track sounds like solo Dug Pinnick 🤘
Is that what indigestion sounds like ?
Stupid question would Phrygian mode work over this ?
They would be stabilisers rob 🙄
Know what would blow my mind? If you gave me one of those explorer bodied guitars for free 😂😂
TL:DW
I own ZERO backing tracks- I prefer to use my Boss RC looper and do I my own - alongside my Valeton GP-200 Multi-Effects Processor that has an adequate drum machine , still I'm open to the idea Rob ( Stabilisers Rob Stabilisers) 🤣🤣🤣🤣
4:54 Less is more. Hooks & memorable licks are what the listener wants. Learn to sing the lead solo to Highway Star.
