Oh MY GOD I WON?!! Thank you so much MISHA, I don't actually have an apex preamp btw 😭😭😭*UPDATE* this demo I wrote is now a full song it's called Cyberpsychosis and it's out on all platforms now!
Congratulations, Hoa. Sick riffage!
congrats dude!!
Congrats dude!! Your entry is so good 🔥
Congratulations man!!!!!
Wow, spoilers 🤣
It's a total fanboy moment for some nobody like me when the person whom I've been looking up to for more than a decade, says my name and so many kind words... Thank you so so so very much for this... It feels like a dream... God bless...
Bishwadeep, that was so tasty. Awesome job, loved listening to that. 👊
Edit: I just listened to it again, you must be a fan of Currents, eh?
Dude that solo was absolutely sick. Whole thing was awesome but the solo in particular👌
Dude your entry is absolutely disgusting and I mean this in the best way possible hahaha. So sick!
awesome stuff dude
Great song man, that was so unique and bangy! I love the transition from very heavy to groovy and then the combination. What a talent
Hey Misha, thanks for the kind words! Its kinda funny, I didnt realize how each section was channeling a different periphery guitarist. You guys are huge inspirations to me so it was super cool to hear that! 🤘
well done Jackson! very very very good work.
What are the pickups in the Schecter???
@@DennisFeinsteinCEO theyre literally just the stock pickups, but they sound incredible. The guitar is a schecter stealth c-1.
Your track has strong Ow My Feelings vibe to me, really cool
I like how this guy, being one of the most succesful metal musicians out there, is so positive and down to earth keeping in touch with the fanbase and music scene.
Really glad you enjoyed my submission. I was trying to emulate Knower's "Overtime", so you hit the nail right on the head with that one!
I got the Knower vibes right away! Really cool, dude
the dude playing the orange signature misha guitar, could have sworn that was ERRA or Volumes for a moment there
Damn, this felt less like a contest submission compilation and more like a curated list of my next favorite musicians
Thank you so much for the kind words Misha!
About my name (Felipe Vldjvrtzky) It's a combination of my real first name and a made up last name. I can't use my birth name due to how I (legally) came to the US and I don't care for my legal last name so I made up an amusing name using only consonants.
All of the notes were indeed on purpose! I used a few scales with similar notes together which created some interesting modulations and chromaticism!
Also, even though my entry was very different, and I appreciate you commenting on its uniqueness, you are one of my greatest musical influences!
You are so good bro, it was joy to listen and watch
@@KalibroLP thanks dude! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
@@AlchemyInstruments dude you absolutely killed this. Super unique style that you have
Well done bro, your entry was definitely my favorite! 🤘
Thanks for reviewing my entry!! That in itself was a huge W for me 🙌🏼
15:49 The dude who figured out guitar haha absolutely insane
Thank you! 🫀
Man I REALLY enjoyed that last submission, the one with Misha's signature guitar. Just made me so happy. I love aggressive stuff like anyone, but this just felt so light but still crunchy, a kind of "Good mood djent" Lol
Yo thank you! 🙌🏼
@@butteritto you were my pick too.
@@soysauce9296 thanks dude!! 🙌🏼
Reminds me a ton of older Novelists, which is absolutely sick, I love that style!!!!!!
Last entry for me. Just. The classic harmonies were great. The dude you picked had an excellent sound and presentation though.
Loved all these but especially Valeri Natas's (Sp?; Satan backwards btw) and Jeremiah Sanchez's.
our dude in the entry with the red strat has a little move im gonna steal 100%. music is a lot of theft and to have someone steal a sound, to me, is the highest form of musical flattery. "that shit was so cool, I cant think of anything i like as much so imma steal it"
Dear lord I'm impressed. Every single entry was sick af. Awesome tones and mastering. Creative editing in visuals. You're all fkn riff lords 🤘🤘but I'd have to vote for Hoa. He really nailed the tone I had in mind when I was trying the Rabea plugin
Love how you push your fans to make such awesome content/music and show it to the world.
❤ You are an awesome guy Mr. Mansoor
Loved all the entries, and Misha is a true djenleman because he always give the details. These are gem, it really shows where we are going with our precious Dj0nt :)
Such monster set of entries. I enjoyed Red strat-guy, Headless 8-string-guy and Orange Jackson-guy the most.
Orange Guitar Dude is my winner 🏆Had a beautiful, purposeful riff without relying on layering or acrobatic overkill. It just sang.
Thanks dude I appreciate that! 🙌🏼
@@butteritto That shit was mad fire, do you have tabs?
Thanks so much! Delighted to make it into the running. So cool to hear such nice things
I immediately thought of Nova Collective with your stuff. I really enjoyed your piece.
@Drew Dawkins Ah thank you so much. Love the Nova Collective!
My first thought to that 1st entry was OW MY FEELINGS.
Misha, I can’t even begin to describe how much respect I have for you. You’re such an honest and kind person, aside from being a beast of a guitarist. You’ll always have my support!
Butteritto got my favorite riff, love how melodic it is
🙌🏼🙌🏼
agreed!
Just hearing Misha's thoughts and comparisons is so nice, I love metal so damn much
Holy shit, the second submission by Conner should totally be a full song. I'm hooked!
Protest the Hero vibes for sure, loved it ❤
Misha, you are making a generation of beasts. Shit, there are going to be some songs coming out over the next few decades
Misha! absolutely 100% Luis Cole vibe - same thinking
I really like the fact that Misha knows who Louis Cole is.
I think, any "serious effort" music video / playthrough video, should be shot in landscape orientation. And then, as an afterthought, a portrait edit can be made to throw it TikTok or wherever.
yea, I only just realized that upon uploading my entry to facebook/youtube. I'm new at this lol
@@AlchemyInstruments well, there really are no rules though, what do I know.
It might easily happen that somebody gets way more views on a portrait guitar video on TikTok than e.g. on UA-cam.
9:42 guitar tone reminds me of CKY a lot!
had the ow my feelings vibe too. sick
All these guys are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
18:20 I get this like, fun mix between Northlane and ERRA and I freakin' love it. Favourite single 'riff' for sure.
Every single submission was incredible. Hell ya guys 🔥🔥🔥
I luv how Misha said that a Riff.... RULES.... definitely throw back and luv it hahah , also palm mute purrrrrrrr must drive a subie , only boxer rumble could match that sound so goooood
Valeri (sorry on the spelling attempt), your tone sounds freakin pissed 🤘😤
That last one sounded very early Intervals
First one is definitely ow my feelings. I was listening to it in the car an hour ago.
Damn, I didn't find even a single entry that I didn't like. All these dudes are amazing!
That last entry sounded a lot like ERRA
Orange guitar guy sounded a lot like it prevails old stuff. great.
Agree with the Ow My Feels haha
Holy crap. Valerie absolutely killed it! Sounded so tasty front to back!
That was my favorite entry of all of them. I love the semi distorted clean tones played Djenty style which that reminds me of, haha
Id pick pierre hoa anyday
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Woahh congrats Pierre! He was also my favorite. Very deserved
My man thank you so much❤
Wow wow wow! Are any of these guys putting out material? Freakin' diggin the entries from Jackson Wagner and Valeri Natas. Yup!
Damn I wanna hear that orange guitar guys riff in a song
Someday I'll make it a whole song 😎
The first guy literally sounded like a Periphery AND Meshuggah song combined
It’s damn near a cover of Ow My Feelings
All these entries were lit af
He's shaking what appears to be Tajin, a Mexican seasoning consisting of mostly ground chilis and dehydrated lime crystals.
It makes the best grilled corn.
I mix some lime juice into the mayo before coating the corn, then sprinkle Tajin on it and grill HARD until you have this nice blackened crust of mayo, hit with another dash of Tajin if you want.
Even starchy corn that has been at the store for a few days will plump right up and become not only super juicy but the kernels POP with authority when you're eating it.
So. Good.
it was a glitter box with real tape on it actually
Dude the talent on this video is insane.
I always look forward to these. I get so much inspiration and love the originality 🔥🔥
Hell yeah congrats guys! This was a fun one!
bro, ow my feelings was going through my mind too😂 it just shows greatness💪
Misha, I get your F1 reference. Best of the best man! Do you think Max Verstappen will 3peat in the 2023 season?
we need channel links i cant find this valerie natas guy
Wow, I don't listen to Djent much because it all sounds pretty much the same to me (like that very last entry with the orange guitar is very much some generic djent stuff) but was actually surprised by the dude with the cross, the one after him and the Meshuggah'ish stuff later down the line. I listen to Meshuggah mostly, love them.
Congrats PIERREEEE
David 🥰
+1 on the Knower/Luis Cole comment. Spot on.
Awsome riffs
2020's ❤️
Congratulations 🇵🇹
guy at 17:00 was definitely my fav, that was awesome.
Damn every entry is fire 🔥 Congrats to everyone
Massive compliment at 11:05
so much good music - love it! love the format!
Had to sit cross-legged in an armchair while eating a muffin for this one.
Need the names of all entrants 🙌🏽 so that I can sub to them 🤌🏽
That Felipe mister sounded the most unique, I reckon. Might’ve heard some sort of Flamenco riffs thrown in there.
1st guitar entry from Jackson W was bullseye in the feelings, too
Hey Allan! This is Felipe. Thank you so much! I see techniques and I figure out if I have a use for them if I’m into it! My technique here isn’t exactly like a flamenco technique but every time I see a flamenco guy do those flams I’m thinking, “why haven’t I learned that yet?!” Lol
Hey Allan! I was the second entry. Thanks so much!
Awesome! But I'd love to see Misha's facial reactions while watching the videos :)
All candidates are great, with PRO guitar tones gents ! My respect for you , talented musicians ! Some day i'll also submit .
I play guitar and piano since 8 y.o.
But can you people believe, that i got robed . Been stolen a lot of my studio equipment ( apprx. for 3000 Eur ). I have 4 electric guitars , but robbers took only one ( so my acoustic ibanez , Cort 7 string and 5 string ibanez still alive ) .
But fuck, they took the most loved and expensive guitar that i had , and saved money to buy it ( soo in total it was mine for approximately a month ) - Ibanez Tim Henson THBB10 :( :( So a little bit of sad story for my self . I think they took it , because it was the only guitar, that was stored in a case :D
All others guitars just on guitar stands . Sorry guys for some personal shit . But that thing , make me be more respectful for guitar players and musicians in general .
I hope u all stay safe and in good , positive mood ! I wish that no one stoles ur passion/hobby er even for some , job equipment
Thanks .
Loyal Horizon devices customer and big fan of BULB himself and Peryphery obviously !
Much love .
New album sounds sick.
my gawd THE POWER
The second song sounds like it would be right at home in the Persona series
Where can I find this dudes material ? jeremiah sanchez 20:11 Unreal!!!
These are all awesome great work everyone!
I got the F1 stuff yo! cars and music go together like white on rice!!!!!!!
Those headphones should get slightly bigger with every video til everyone notices, then slightly shrink til noone notices
23:25 Maybe it was for you originally, AND then he realized he had to make a reel out of it… anyways, even if it was a years old riff, the best riff is the best riff so…
Pretty much what happened as I started filming this riff lol (I was the last entry)
Valery was INSANE
he even looks like louis cole
You have chosen..... wisely
I’m just here wondering why I even bother playing guitar lol the skill level across the board is just insane
Not gonna lie…the standard here was insane! I would listen to every single one of these guitarists bands. You are right, some really fresh takes. I think this is what things like this competition does though, forces people to innovate in order to stand out.
Amazing stuff everyone who participated! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These videos are awesome man, thanks
First one sounded almost exactly like Ow My Feelings, he’s not wrong
Congrats to all the winners!
Misha are you talking about the band Ten56 using octavers well?
Hoa would have been my pick too man, such a dope sound
Does Valeri have a channel?
Horizon chorus pedal when 👀?
the dude with the 8 string was so sick but man his video was way over edited lol
Where are these contests announced? I'd like to enter one!
Fuck yess fuck yess
I like how he says he's joking about anyone who has his sig automatically wins, but then someone who does actually wins lmao
EDIT: I mean this in jest, just thought it was a funny observation
It was funny tho, after he reacted to my entry I was like didn't he recognize his sig guitar??? 😂😅 then he did when he watched it for the third time 😭🤣
Headphones? Forget that... Mish strapped two 8 inch subs to a hairclip and uses that ha ha.
Misha is the complete opposite of Rudy Ayoub 😂
11:10 sounds alot like Wide Eyes
Epic!
Filipe incorporated jazz fusion techniques and licks in his writing…I wouldn’t call them sour notes..you have to sort of come out of the usual scale shapes and think of it in intervals and modes..the use of chromatic notes is a common thing to build up the tension in jazz fusion…a bit of sour to make up appreciate the sweet..I think he mixed three modes together there and put in Phrygian lick where u usually wouldn’t…I think it would had been better if he did not arrange the drums to be that aggressive…his chord voicings needed space to fall and sink in and you could had appreciated the beauty of it more, if the drums did not fill in those spaces
He looks like that guy from peripheral
I don't know the name. But easily "the guy who figured out guitar"
Objectively the best player.
Thanks dude! Not sure if that’s true but I appreciate the compliment!
@@AlchemyInstruments best technique, most interesting melody line and rhythms. The fluidity of going from one chord to the next. These are all characteristics I would have chosen you for.
@@starrk7158 I appreciate that! I definitely enjoy putting thought into each of those elements 😁
I like the last one just bc it reminded me of early Novelists/ kadinja
