absolutely wild, I appreciate how you kept moving instead of getting weighed down by the details.

I love how you shot this in 4:3, vintage modern sort of vibes :)

No clue how you just write the best sections of all time

TL;DR: You're a beast Josh. . I'm halfway through the video but I had to stop to say I'm super thankful for these videos. Your work is always top notch and the quality of the content you make is some of the best I've seen on KZfaq, next to the Abasi Concepts videos (which I know you create as well sometimes hahah) hell even the quality of the video itself is amazing, the shots, the color grading, the lighting, the editing, simply everything and I haven't even talked about that beautiful composition you made there which was so inspiring that I'm writing a song right now taking the ideas you're explaining as I watch Keep up making these Josh, please please please keep it up, I hope one day you come to play a gig in Mexico

I'm just impressed how you managed to extract this beautiful acoustic guitar tone, without any mic (at least I didn't see any)

I’m always over complicating my writing and recording process. Thanks for sharing yours and showing me yet again that it doesn’t need to be as difficult as I tend to think it is.

This content is gold. Seeing the creative process and not just the finished product is so compelling, I could watch forever

I’m loving the new videos and the insight into your process, can’t wait for the next one!

Great direction this josh👍 it’s really great to see how other musicians go from a seed of an idea to something more fully fledged. Always a pleasure to watch mate ❤

Incredible, love seeing the process Josh

Loving the uploads josh ! Super informative and inspiring

This was so beautiful and I loved watching it come to life! Please do more and more of this!!!

man you are one of the best players on youtube. I hope more people subscribe

This is awesome! There doesn't seem to be a lot of video content like this out there, something that's simple, natural, and without a hyper-produced video approach. This is the kind of format that's really inspiring.

Dude, everything you put out there is lovely. I’ve been watching your videos for years. You’re content is much appreciated 🔮

Stuff like this is very cool. This helps me on my recording journey since i have no idea what i'm doing. I love your approach. You're a great teacher.

Thanks a ton for the video! I'm definitely going to try to apply the same kind of thinking when layering guitars. Your music and videos are inspiring me a lot to create new stuff. Thanks Josh 😊

100% interested in these types of videos. Your approach to arrangement is super helpful.

After I heard "kepler" , I was sold on my love for your guitar playing! Excited to see you are going to post more! You are a huge inspiration!

gorgeous progression and I appreciate showing us your process. Trying to learn how you mix everything so well!

I wish I could listen to this on Apple Music Edit: btw this is awesome and beautiful and it inspires me to want to compose something as beautiful as this. You are a great musician and guitarist and I love this series you have going on, I learn a lot from it.

Simply beautiful. Got a few fresh ideas to keep myself busy

Keep making more vids!! Been following you since 2019 and so far these vids have been your best approach! Great way to be involved with the community with wonderful information too and high production value with these vids too!

Love the look of your videos in general. Very aesthetically pleasing

God bless you for sharing your knowledge brother. Prayers that you have a long and blessed life

I love the vid, that Tamarack was the perfect addition to the piece. I’d also really love to hear your approach to exploring the more non-diatonic pieces you make. It seemed like you and Joseph had a bit different approaches to understanding harmony from the trading licks series you did. You guys both do it so well. Love the video and I’m super excited your gonna be posting up more! Can’t wait

These kinds of video are amazing and interesting! Hope to see more of this stuff

Love the layering process, you play amazing guitar ❤

This was such a cool watch bro i wanted it to keep going haha. If you could make this into a series where you record a cool little song like that and dive into the plug ins you use and give little tips and tricks for logic that would be sick! Ive been trying to record stuff in logic but feel like i dont know much beyond the surface level. I think that would be super helpful for other guitarists trying to record in logic!

Yup! That’s the kid of content I wish to see more of! Beautiful music and contagious inspiration!! I love It! Thank for this, and keep up the good work!

Never misses. More please.

So so sick. Love seeing your process. Hopefully more of these vids to come!

Josh, i love these videos. I see a lot of your clips on various pages throughout social media accounts, and a lot of them seem like you're playing these big beautiful chords just off the top of your head. I'm sure most of your fans are familiar with diatonics and modal progressions, but it would be great to see your thought process when using borrowed chords. Maybe even point us in the direction of where you learned these concepts and how to get them on lock. Best wishes from a long time fan ❤

This video looks incredible. That intro is absolutely gorgeous!!!! I haven’t even mentioned the music yet cuz my god.

Absolutely love these kinds of videos ❤

Cool demo and I really like how you get something and keep going. I way over analyze and spend too much time trying to get it just perfect. Nice camera look, good lighting and nice job on the audio. Well done!

You are one of my favourite musicians at the moment. You inspire me so much. P.s. I hope one day to experience an album from your project Victoria with Matt Gartska. ❤

Beautiful Video and ideas Joshua! You're always inspiring! Keep it going 🖤

Joshua, it's a pleasure to listen to you play, and I really enjoy watching how you record your music. Thank you for inspiring me, you make me want to play and record creative things. Damn, now I want a P90 guitar too! 😅

much love bro from Trinidad love your style and playing great content

This is great. I do a similar approach, layering little arpeggiations over a chord progression. More funky than ambient. It’s easy to turn a little rhythm into a nice instrumental part. I’m nowhere near as prolific as I could be but it’s a very fun and satisfying process on its own. I really enjoy your work with Matt Gartska and was hoping to hear a follow up to your last work with him. Thanks for this content, it’s very helpful and I’d like to hear your thoughts when you think you have a compete song, when to stop adding layers, etc.

That was so cool! Would love for you to make more videos like this!

You have a beautiful way of playing. Glad I happened to find this

This is great! I would love more tutorials as I love your writing style!

Absolutely amazing as always! I think a future video idea that you could explore would be how you come up with interesting bass lines (bass guitar and synth).

Crazy inspiring to watch, thanks man.

Just found your channel! I really love your style and it inspired me a bit as I have been getting a lil discouraged with learning production.

Great vid, both practical and inspirational. You’re right the capo trick really works. I play finger style acoustic and simply playing the same chords (or close) sounds great when you move the capo as the voicings all change. And yes, those small body guitars really do have something don’t they. I bought the Harley Benton for my 7 year old, you obviously get what you pay for 😂 but I really love the timbre of it so much I may invest in upgrading the components or just put the Taylor on my ‘one day, Xmas’ list. 🙏 Great vid. 👍

I do in fact enjoy these videos!

This was incredible. Nice work! Makes me want to practice my guitar playing haha

Sounds magical! Thank you.

If you made a whole album with tunes like this I would listen the shit out of it

bro. you are on *another* level.

Wow man you're amazing. i would like to hear you on modern things and drum programming from scratch . Thanks❤

Love the stuff man! Keep those up for a series can’t wait to see the next one!

Beautiful, can you please make a video on how you approach writing synth?

I too love fleet foxes. Love this video as well!

You are extremely talented. keep it going

Awesome video! Love these kinds of videos. Would like to see some of your favourite hybrid picking exercises, like top 5 or something?

Subscribed! I've been enjoying these videos and I think they're extremely helpful for people who already know their theory but struggle to write music and put it into application. There's not a lot of videos out there that cater to this level. This is a cool track, for some reason it reminded me of Michael Hedges and Andy Mckee. Have you heard of them?

Hey Joshua, these videos are great! I don't know if you have done this already but if you decided to do a video on how do you actually record the guitars (processing, mics, compression, etc) that would be great to see step by step. Seeing your process visually really helps me figure out better how to do it, specially cuz I'm finally learning how to record myself. Your music is awesome man, keep it up hermano.

Keep posting. Loving this!

You are awesome! Great skills :) Thanks for the video and see you next time :)

Keep ‘em comin! Acoustic prog 💥 ❤

Excellent!

Yes, please, keep making videos like this 🙏

Man you are so good!

You're very inspiring! Thanks for doing this :)

need more contents from you josh!❤️

okay i am convinced i need some soundtoys in my life

This is excellent content and much appreciated . Thank you It's really beneficial to see your creative approach to writing music. Would love to see you do a video on how you approach writing composed solos ? Like if you had a short guest solo section in a song . Not necessarily a heavy theory note by note breakdown but what key areas are you looking out for when composing a solo and creating a nice balance of shred ,melody and space?

Great Video!!!! Looking forward to some Lead Guitar Harmony and Layers Lesson!!

i thoroughly enjoy these videos, it makes me feel thoroughly at home

This rules man, thanks for making it!

Loving these video, my dude! That aspect ratio tho 🔥

Hi

love it !!!!🔥🔥🔥

Beautiful!

I have the same guitar. It is my favorite. So comfortable to play.

You are amazing man!

Absolutely love this! So glad you showed the production aspects as well as the creative and writing. I'd love to learn more about your studio setup and routing.

This was helpful , I think I can do more stuff with this content as a guide, i love the way he expressed music and how people who listen, can give meaning. (I hope this be right written, cause I’m a Latin viewer jeje)

superb content, wanting for more fosho!!!

Dude…. You’re nice on that thing 💯

Very effective ad for Taylor guitars and soundtoys m8

Man, your youtube has been popping lately, thank you so much for making these videos. Not only is your playing amazing, but the cinematography is eye catching as well. When it comes to video ideas, I would love to hear how you come up with progressions. I know that its 90% coming from lhavibg learned many sobgs and just havibg them as a vocabulary, but I have been really struggling to come up with any progressions that make sense. Do you thibk functionally about them? Would appreciate your perspective on developing this skill.

Great man.. love that one!

Sounds Good Man 👍😎😃

Ayoooooo you and Sims Cashion collaborating would make me so happy bro

loved this.

You make this look so easy haha! Great video enjoyed this

Really great stuff

Comment to show interest. great work dude and please release more music!

super great vid! wat brand is that table u using? wat os u using? i had a mac mini might upgrade

Beautiful! Some of the harmonies got me thinking of the song 'Beholden' by Mike Walker & Stuart McCallum - give it a listen!

Thank you so much for this!!

I found a couple of your songs and told all my friends "this is my new favorite band. you have to check them out!" little did I know, it was just you. You seamlessly play without typical rhythm constraints. You're music is beautiful and you're so humble and modest. I don't have a question that you could answer in a video, I just want to be your friend and tell you that the good vibes are being tossed over to you via willpower.

Yes we are interested moreeeee

Amazing!!!

Beautiful 🙂
