One thing I've noticed about guitarists who try to make technical music like this, is that they end up just making random notes mashed together. But this dude pieces it all together and it makes sense and tells a story in your head. Love it
The reason I think Angel stands out is because he understands the balance between shred and melody. He creates amazing melodies, but will astound you with his skill.
You kinda changed my whole perspective on instrumental music...I never could listen to an instrumental more than two times in a row, until I started listening to your songs... Thank you very much for that...and the inspiration as I am a (young) guitarist myself^^
Geoffrey Lancaster Oh yes, it is! I even saw Joe Live...but I think I simply wasn't as much into it as now to appreciate enough, should definately relisten to it Thanks for the suggestion!
The Metal Damn dude! Same here! Angel is one of my inspirations and it’s good to know that people like you have a similar perspective about instrumental music! I would suggest you to go and check out my channel! Im sure you would find the right music of your choice! Greetings from Mumbai, India!
When physical heart and spiritual soul become one. A love is being poured out from a fountain of living water that lies within... His music is good because he really gives it his all.

Listened to this the day it came onto UA-cam. Been listening to it again and again at every opportunity. Absolutely amazing work, fucking inspirational, too.
You motivate me to pick up my guitar every day. I'm a relatively young lad with a burning desire to play on this level. I would say you're my modern day Van Halen, but you've surpassed that to me on a level I can't articulate into words. Simply beautiful.
guitar skills, yes. I make the comparison because EVH inspired generations of guitarist. Angel isn't what would be considered main-stream. Everyone knows of EVH, but only certain people recognize how talented Angel Vivaldi is due to how music is today.
Once again great technique and touch you play the guitar like you are caressing someone ,, and on a side note I want to say thank you for all the hard work you do for not only for the Music community but the people hurt by senseless violence ,, I have been at jam fest a few times and know you care about the world around you thanks
This and Dopamine are my favorite songs on the album. Can't figure how many times I've listened to this song. It's just one catchy riff to another, from beginning to end. Whenever I hear that intro I know that next 5 minutes are going to be the time of my life
One of the few songs to make me stop what I'm doing and just listen, the first time I heard it. The end part nearly made me cry and I couldn't tell you why, but my god is this man talented
Story time! So! The first time I heard this song was on UA-cam Music a few months back, and that’s where I heard this song for the first time, and then I couldn’t find it! It was stuck in my head for the next 2-3 weeks, and I was doing everything in my power to find it. One night before I went to bed, I got the idea to whistle end of the intro (which was the part of the song I had stuck in my head), and found THIS! It was right under my nose the whole time, because I listen to your music FREQUENTLY. So there I was laying in bed, at peace, knowing that I had finally found this song! 😂
What i like about angels music is that anyone can shred and play fast and learn the arpeggios and scales and just constantly try to be faster than the next guy. But alot of angels stuff is really catchy and has alot of feel. I can tell he doesnt try to be the next yngwie malmsteen and plays whats fun for him to play. And for that I thank you. Keep it comin man.
I saw you on two of the JD shred collabs and enjoyed your parts on both. I'm ashamed to say I never looked at any of your other work. I saw your feature on Dean Lamb's 4 Levels of Death Metal and... wow. I'm hooked. This is fantastic. I'm a sucker for instrumental music and I think I've found something absolutely special. Don't ever stop making music, please!
Awesome job Angel! Everything here sounds so nice to the ear. I love the harmonies, the tone, the dope rhythm guitar parts! I also like the part after Gus' solo, that whole bridge section is super cool. bravo!
Just got to know this album of yours. The playing is exquisite, and the guest appearance of the best guitarist from my country is the only moment this music touches the ground with his amazing contribution. You are soulful and etheral, yet aggressive at the right moment. A great chapter in contemporary instrumental music.
I think this video can be termed as, "The breakthrough in guitar mechanics. Breaking free from all the conventional guitar methods and coming up with such great modern music, with the help of a guitar." Serves the whole purpose! And also I know Gus G when I see him! 😉
Such an incredible piece of work Angel \,,/ - you and Gus just absolutely smoke through this with such passion and technical skill 🎸🔥🎸 - simply fret melting shred
Who would have guessed another frickin awesome track....goddamn if i had one wish right now i would ask to be as good as Angel. And the the genie would probably deny me it because there can only be one god.....
Oh my lord my dude that was killer. Every time I get a notification that you have a new video up. I lose my shit there always great and the guest solos are great to gus did an awesome job for the solo.
What a spectacular track! You're taking the Taping Game up to another beautiful level. It would have been nice to hear Gus G a little more than he ended up playing here on this track.
Amazing somg, guitar solos, melodies. The whole song has some interesting tune. Maybe it is because of sound of drums. Bass drum has perfect, strong, clear sound. Snare also. Bass drum pattern in this song is crazy. I like drums here, great fills, ideas.
That really means a lot to hear, a lot of thought went into even minor aspects of this record! Because of the concept for Synapse, I wanted the most primal instrument (percussion) up front a bit more in the mix. That being said, I composed the drums patterns and some of the fills along with my drummer of now 11 yrs!
Aaaaand I finally got my Angel fix... computer screen is now a lil sticky tho... oh well it's my boss's not mine... love the vid as always! Great song👍
Just saw him live Thursday with Nita Strauss. Show was fantastic, sound was great for such a small venue, and they stayed and greeted everyone after. I was nervous and making no sense talking to him. I told him a funny story but I think he thought it was weird. :P

That is why he is a very talented genius on his guitar, so technically. Amazing
Angel should have a couple million followers, idc what anyone says.
Billion *
Well he's only got thousands so why not spread he's name
@@Unaver4ge I tell anyone who's interested in music about Angel.
I second that
Buy this excellent artists music! He is better than 90% of all other guitar players. The melody is beautiful, people like Angel deserve our support!
The reason I think Angel stands out is because he understands the balance between shred and melody. He creates amazing melodies, but will astound you with his skill.
I agree. You can tell by the intensity of the volume per instrument. Nothing is overpowered so that you can hear everything.
Don't question it just embrace!
His music is so melodic and pure
Blessed are my ears 🥰
Gus G’s solo- mindblown
You kinda changed my whole perspective on instrumental music...I never could listen to an instrumental more than two times in a row, until I started listening to your songs...
Thank you very much for that...and the inspiration as I am a (young) guitarist myself^^
You can also try Joe Satriani, if you havn't before. 'Surfing with the Aliens' is an amazing album.
Geoffrey Lancaster Oh yes, it is! I even saw Joe Live...but I think I simply wasn't as much into it as now to appreciate enough, should definately relisten to it
Thanks for the suggestion!
Check out vitalism man, alot like this but faster more up beat and more technical
The Metal Damn dude! Same here! Angel is one of my inspirations and it’s good to know that people like you have a similar perspective about instrumental music! I would suggest you to go and check out my channel! Im sure you would find the right music of your choice! Greetings from Mumbai, India!
The Metal yummy
When physical heart and spiritual soul become one. A love is being poured out from a fountain of living water that lies within... His music is good because he really gives it his all.
I simply just have no words for this. Wow and Yes. That's all I got
I just woke up grabbed a cup of coffee and watched your vid, today is gonna be a good day
same here
haha Hell yeah. I'm doing that exact thing right now.
Angel Vivaldi songs are some of the highlights of my day
Full savage mode. Killed it dudes!
Indeed they did
Better than your garbage... I'd love to see you play anything live all the way through. You're trash
@@MichaelMiller-wc6jl you mad af bro stfu. He’s probably better than you not only at playing guitar, but generally in music.
Quite impressed to see Gus G playing with Angel Vivaldi-big fan of both😊🙋♂️

AMAZING DUDE! will i make a cover of it? ;)
this song is in standard E right??
I would love to see you collaborate with Tosin Abasi!!!
Angel you BEAST you. I remain in awe of your mastery of the guitar.
Wait, has your music always been this sick? Damn, I've been missing out. Consider me a fan!
Nick Padovani yes dude, Vivaldi is the fucken man
Очень приятная мелодия! НУ и уровень конечно у Энджела просто космос!)
I'm a simple man. I see an Angel Vivaldi upload, I hit the like button.
this was the first meeting with Angel Vivaldi ... never heard of him before .. this was amazing !!!
Angel Vivaldi...the one artist to push Animals As Leaders to second, my favorite current band...AV, salute!
Amazing guitarist. Always ON when im walking thru NYC streets.
I've been into metal for 30 years and been playing for 20, that was the most passionate best guitar performance I've ever seen.
I just want to say that Gus G's guitar is gorgeous. Swooooon
Listened to this the day it came onto UA-cam. Been listening to it again and again at every opportunity. Absolutely amazing work, fucking inspirational, too.
Dude your phrasing is unreal to play this type of music. Not easy to do. Not something easily thought. Keep kicking ass.
I see why it's called Oxytocin. Gets my man juices flowing.
How can this be so melodic? It's so busy yet so easy to listen to.
A beautiful man making beautiful music.
You are an absolute monster. Please don't stop making music EVER
That guitar is primo. Love the two-tone with the silver frets and gold hardware/pups. I want it.
old favorite + new favorite guitarist = epic song
Angel Vivaldi takes guitar playing to other dimensions.
You motivate me to pick up my guitar every day. I'm a relatively young lad with a burning desire to play on this level. I would say you're my modern day Van Halen, but you've surpassed that to me on a level I can't articulate into words. Simply beautiful.
Drew Jacob ....I think he is well beyond EVH
guitar skills, yes. I make the comparison because EVH inspired generations of guitarist. Angel isn't what would be considered main-stream. Everyone knows of EVH, but only certain people recognize how talented Angel Vivaldi is due to how music is today.
Once again great technique and touch you play the guitar like you are caressing someone ,, and on a side note I want to say thank you for all the hard work you do for not only for the Music community but the people hurt by senseless violence ,, I have been at jam fest a few times and know you care about the world around you thanks
Not sure how there isn’t much more likes, views , and subs. Vivaldi, you are the man
human sucks u know.
I love the rhythm guitar on this whole ablum. Compliments the lead so well, its perfect!
I love how extremely technical apt he is but always keeps the music stay center stage.
Who needs lyrics w/ licks that intricate. Amazing as usual
I love the shake of the hand after that freaking awesome bridge part. My hand would've seized and severely cramped long before the end of that lol
This and Dopamine are my favorite songs on the album. Can't figure how many times I've listened to this song. It's just one catchy riff to another, from beginning to end. Whenever I hear that intro I know that next 5 minutes are going to be the time of my life

I love your uplifting melodies, Angel. Thanks for being awesome!

Much love my dude.
Thras Stefanidis k
Thras Stefanidis actually I saw your same comments on his other videos! You really do love him and why not!
One can only try to emulate that finger dexterity for so long before developing carpal tunnel. Clean playthrough man!
had this album on repeat at work for months now, killer stuff.
I saw you on two of the JD shred collabs and enjoyed your parts on both. I'm ashamed to say I never looked at any of your other work.

I really appreciate that! New music is on the horizon :)
@@AngelVivaldi you're inspiring me to pick the guitar back up. Thank you for all you do
Coming off of a night shift and hearing this before bed was an amazing way to end the night

One of my favourite song, so melodic! 🖤

Love this finger work!! Its ridiculous

What a spectacular track! You're taking the Taping Game up to another beautiful level. It would have been nice to hear Gus G a little more than he ended up playing here on this track.
toda su música es muy muy buena, espero verlo en vivo por Colombia(bogota) en algún momento. saludos !!!
Absofruitly phenomenal!!
Atta boy Angel. Glad you're getting everything situated and back to delivering the goods \m/
