Yr an awesome teacher! But that Kings X song sounds more musical than that Djent modern music u played that yr kids liked. Djent music lack melody, its more about their flashy guitar technique instead of melody. But overall u made great points that I will surely use in my practice Charlie.

Something that works for me is coming up with a rough draft for a song every time I play. Ill typically start off every practice session practicing my recent songs. Before i start a bew one. This keeps me serious, and also helps me with memory issues that i have and are really an important part of music that doesn't get appreciated.

I fixed the noodling thing a couple years ago: realized that whenever I sit down and play there's a moment where there's this epic shit coming out, whether on guitar or piano, so now I rarely play without hitting record in the DAW first. I mean It's not like we need to save on tape, so it can run in the background while I explore some scale and see what happens. Then I just delete the silence, listen through and delete the trash, and what's left is enough generally for a couple songs which I didn't know I was writing. Then just do a pass through with a midi drum kit and stuff takes shape, track by track. It's like speed-writing by improvisation.

What great practice - recording yourself is invaluable!!! 🎸🔥🎶🔥🎸

@@CharlieLongGuitar it's done something unexpected too, it expanded my definition of what you can make into a song, and brought me back to figuring out the theory *after the inspiration occurs and gets recorded, which is nice because that can box a person in, sticking to a specific key.

You are an exceptional teacher. After about 2 years of daily practice, I'd say i'm definitely leaving the beginner stages and getting into intermediate levels of understanding and skills. The principles/philosophies you discuss are very thought provoking. I am confident they will pay huge dividends. thank you so much

Hey Charlie , on the king's X song you demoed , is your guitar in standard E tuning or is it dropped D or B ? Thanks Charlie and great video! ✌️🎸.
@CharlieLongGuitar2 ай бұрын
Fun question - low E string tuned to D. Everything else standard - so Dropped D
