“When I saw Plini play, I felt that the future of exceptional guitar playing was secure,” - Steve Vai

The last message I ever got from my best friend that was killed was him asking me what the name of this song was. Showed it to him a few nights before when we were chillin and he loved it. Can't begin to express the value this song carries every time I listen to it. Just... thank you.

This was my sons favorite band. He took his own life 7 months ago. When I hear this I see him playing.

A lot of people brought to this because of Rick Beato. Those bands who block Rick from using their music as examples are quite foolish.

40 seconds in and I'm already convinced that everything is ok in the world.

Produced and mixed in a bedroom in Sydney

Wow very original stuff. Very mature playing. He’s not showing off. It’s all for the song. Really awesome.

It’s like Petrucci, Metheny and Satriani had a kid together. Masterful....freaking awesome.♥️

If your architectural skills are as good as your music writing skills... I can't wait to see you build a new world.

shitty day, Plini uploads, AWESOME DAY!

TheDooo blows my mind everytime.

Rick beato brought me here. I can totally see why Steve Vai would enjoy this. It's very reminiscent of his style of playing. This is pretty darn Spectacular music.

Yessss. Killed it my dude!

Ye booooooooi

Just saw Plini with Nick Johnston and David Maxim in Houston literally HOURS before Hurricane Harvey hit...they were the only bands that didn't cancel in the city that night. Around 75-80 people still showed up, maybe more, and it was the most amazing show. They were sooo freaking cool, nice & genuine people, stayed to talk with anyone who wanted to meet them or discuss their music. Oh and they sounded incredible, easily one of the best experiences I've ever had seeing live music, their music makes you feel so GOOD inside. Bunch of classy dudes is what they are to be there for their fans and risk the wrath of what turned out to be the biggest storm in US history.

The guy who sold me my speakers had no idea who Plini was. Now he's using this track as a seller.

Take your dose of happiness!!!

the dive bomb at 2:11 gives me chills.

Rick Beato brought me here! Thanks Rick for introducing me into something amazing and new (for me)! Great song Plini!!

Saw them in concert in Atlanta and their first words were, 'Are you ready to get happy?' and I was so confused but then they played this and I felt fantastic. Love these guys!

Never heard this band before.... 0:13 i thought it was good. 0:34 interesting 0:50 love the drum sound so far 1:08 Jumped out the window cause it was so good 0:00 - 5:05 what a masterpiece. I LOVE IT

Killer!

This song has literally been my fuel for the past few months. It really takes me to another place.

These tones, they heal the soul. You feel it, and you can't deny it.

This music is incredibly uplifting. There's just something beautifully optimistic about every note played, the happiness emitted in the guitar. Its like sitting by the beach, and seeing the world sleep at night. Its like standing in the middle of a busy road while everyone is going to work. The droney nature of the chords and arpeggios are like a stillness and everything around is this organised chaos infused with the being at peace with the suffering of the world. It has a sort of tranquility about everything, the jazzy guitar solo is like self-discovery and being able to find happiness when the world has become quiet from all the noise. Its like pushing past all the racing thoughts and reaching the finish line.

Some say magic doesn't exist. If only they listened to this

Fantastic job Plini, can't wait for the debut album!

I love the comment "Produced and Mixed by Plini in a bedroom in Sydney" Not only is Plini one of the most inspirational musicians I've ever heard, but his production is so incredibly solid! Can't wait for the full album!

Still listening to this masterpiece in 2k19❤️. Who else?

Thanks a lot for this Rick Beato. This sounds awesome.

Plini has such a unique touch. He's got so much feel, that's all you notice for a long time. Then, you try get a lead line down on your own and realize the man is so technically proficient on top of it all. Insane stuff.

Everytime I listen this song, it gives me goosebumps....

You can't see the smile on my face. Such a cool song.

First time I heard this, when that first lead line after the tapping hit I sobbed like a baby! It was just hitting me at the perfect place in life at that time. Reminiscent of when I first heard Petrucci rip. Thanks Plini if you see this!

Saw Plini in concert. Just mesmerizing!

I hit the thumbs up before I hit the play button. Plini

Simon Grove's nickname is now Simon Groove

Rick beato brought me here, 123 123 123 12 12

Thanks Rick Beato! This artist is awesome!

Found this band last night peaking on lsd. Ended up listening to the whole album. I was in a WORLD.

Plini's music gets me on a molecular level 🙏

Awesome song Plini and a really big thank you to Mr Beato!

Musicians like you restore my faith in humanity. Thank you for all the hard work you put in to expressing your soul!

Cant believe this only had 16 views when I got here! It should have 1.6 million!

This is one of those songs that you see in your playlist and say, "I've listened to that so many times, I kinda want to listen to something else," but you play it anyway and feel the same energy as you did the very first time. This piece and the whole album set a new bar for progressive rock.

Found this song because i kept seeing the Neural DSP Archetype Plini ads and i had never heard of this guy before. This song legit made me feel something about music i havent felt in so so long. Going to binge his entire discography.

This reminds me of an old classical music symphony, but with an electric guitar. Absolutely amazing.

one of the best instrumental guitar songs for my opinion plini ur the best

This song just gives me a sense of hope every time I hear it

this whole album is a masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!

bring me back to the Masquerade in Atlanta. April. 2019. The whole show was amazing, but Plini was on another level.

This is the perfect example, that it is possible to make beautiful and amazing music, that can be heavy, technical, spacious, nostalgic and happy at the same time. My deepest respect, sir. You are my currently fav solo musican. Keep up that great work !!!

For anyone who was wondering, the intro is in 17/16, 4/4 plus a 16th note Edit: Actually i think the whole song is ANOTHER EDIT, if you count it as 12/8 plus 1/8(13\8) its easier to count while you play

this is actually the perfect phone alarm

the distorted note at 1:17 gives me chills every time

i m damn happy cause there are still millions of people who like , love and support, progressive atmoshpheric etc......plini you are the man dude

It's official: Rick Beato is an influencer! I saw the intro to his WMTSG video on this song, immediately paused it to come listen to it in full first, and daaaaaaaaamn. Reminds me of Liquid Tension Experiment and sleepmakeswaves

Thanks for making me cry Plini

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard

This has to be the happiest djent song I have ever heard.

Yep "it's actually a good song" TheDooo doesn't lie my guys. Beautiful song Plini.

Lots of love from Nepal 🇳🇵 ❤️ iloveyourmusic❤️❤️❤️🤟🤟🤘 when i was listen plini music. i feel relieve 😌..

Who else still listening to this on 2023? I come to this literally once or twice a week and even more , can't get over with this masterpiece.

oh my god this is brilliant. can't wait for the album!

OH MY GOD SO GOOD. Plini just keeps on surpassing his own standards. This man doesn't know how to stop, and an inspiration for every guitarist and musician out there. You have my utmost respect sir. Thank you for every song you have ever released.

I imagine myself as a guy who’s been trying to make it big and lives in New York. Theres a montage of me working through the shitty server jobs in the morning and playing at small venues at night. Even though my music is a breakthrough, the right opportunities has not presented itself. An audition flyer cruises by for opening acts to play at Madison square garden. Through all the struggles, I finally get my break and get the serious gig. I’m running through the park in slow motion. Finally to tell the one girl who’s been there through it all “we made it”. Haha this is how I imagine the song.

I just keep listening to this again and again.

When Plini release a song is like take another breath on a lot of music trash that doesn't feels nothing. I swear GOD, Plini's music has life, has soul. Beautiful masterpiece as always dude.

As a fellow Australian I’m embarrassed for not knowing this. I came here after watching Beato on odd signatures. This is so incredibly beautiful it brought me a ear to ear smile. Thank you Plini.

Handmade cities, in it's entirety, is a masterpiece. Thankyou.

I've had this song on repeat for four years

SO GOOD!!! Hopefully you guys play this on tour :)

Faith, Hope, and Love !!! Fantastic !!! Thank you Plini !!!

He is the Vai and Satriani of the newer guitar generation. Periphery is the Dream Theater of the newer guitar generation. My brain melted with these guys like it did when I heard Vai, Satriani and Dream Theater in the late 80's. All these guys make me glad to have the guitar as a part of my everyday life even though I don't play professionally.

This song has always keep up in the vibe for me. Loved it.

Holy crap this is the most beautiful piece of music ive ever heard. Thank you Dooo for bringing me here and major thanks to Plini for this masterpiece

I think that this album is about the Hero Journey! 00:00 - Electric Sunrise / "Call to adventure" and "Meeting a Mentor" 05:04 - Handmade Cities / "Trials + Failures" and "Growth new Skills" 09:50 - Inhale / "Fall and Death" 14:48 - Every Pieces Matter / "Rebirth" 18:28 - Pastures / "Last Chance", "Revelations", "Last Battle" and "Atonement" 26:02 - Here we are again / "Gets gift" and "The return with Elixir" 28:39 - Cascade / A new "Call to adventure" And the Hero Journey restart! Listen the album again!!! 00:00

This is one of those songs I never want to forget

What a gem. This song is everything I look for is this genre

I signed in just to give this a thumbs up and to let you know that you're music brings tears to my eyes and stirs my emotions. I love playing guitar, have been for over 40 years. I am constantly amazed with the evolution of our instrument and the countless ways it used to express sadness, rage, peace and joy in our lives. I am so glad to live long enough to hear your work, and that of others who won't let their creativity be restrained or filtered. Thank you Plini. You are amazing, gifted and humble. Please keep on providing us with your vision and passion.

What a healing piece of art ❤️

omg this song never fails to incite joy in me whenever i listen to it. its crescendoes are so satisfying to get swept in.

The production quality just keeps getting better and better! Love it, can't wait for the album!

This song keeps my mind right, idk how to explain it, it bring tears to my eyes.

At first i was like "ah, another djent project", but when i listened further, i heard influences from Mattias IA Eklundh, Vai and Satriani. Very playful guitarwork! Had to repeat few times. Noice!!!

dat tone, it really gives a new vibe. can't wait to the full album

This guy is a genius.... Creating such complex yet refreshing and happy music

Masterpieces like this KZfaq doesn't recommend... Only "LiL sHiTs"

This song makes me smile.

I just can’t get enough of this song!! Listen to it over and over again every day. There is still hope for music....

im seriously on the verge of tears when I listen to your music, it's more than beautiful.

plini you are one of the most amazing guitarists\songwriters of our time and thank you so much for all the great music. i would love to see you come out with a split ep with chris letchford...you two have the best writing skills, your both super creative and have awesome unique playing styles... chris thinks its a good idea hopefully i can hear it in the future... thanks again for the beautiful music

A really close friend introduced me to this song, and then I simply fell in love with it :)

plini this song makes my day every time i listen to you, thank you for creating an amazing master piece

Seen him last night and nothing short of incredible playing! Will see again.

If there's one artist who never fails to amuse me and leave me speechless, it's Plini. This is a masterpiece!

So glad to finally see more music from you Plini! Fantastic as always.

Plini is getting me through my summer class essays. This song in particular has been very helpful to my writing vibes.

Everytime I feel down and out I put this on and everything seems better
