How we made Acoustic VS Electric (with Ichika)

Hey y'all!

Thank you for all the love on the newest video, I couldn't be happier honestly.

Here's the story of how I created this concept and got Ichika to jump on. Basically me talking for 20 minutes about this year long process 😂

I was a bit tired when shooting this video, whole April is mad busy, so forgive me if I seem o...

Here's the first "official" collab on my channel ❤️ What do you think?

I wrote the tabs for my sections, they are attached.

I am super busy this month, and I thought that instead of an analysis or anything I'll make a behind the scenes video of how we collaborated on this song, and about the whole process. That should be pretty s...

When he was younger, my dad ran a few marathons - and his finish time was lower than the length of this stream - so saying it was a marathon is literally an understatement 😂

Heyy!

I'm feeling really great today: I'm definitely all healthy now; it's the second night in a row that I watch a Studio Ghibli movie; and I bought a new carpet for my living room - truly a once in a lifetime day 😂 The only thing that could make this week better is if there was a livestream... oh wait, it's coming up on Thursday 🤯<...

Hi all,

Yesterday I started feeling a bit under the weather, but nothing major at all and I was expecting to be all good today. Well unfortunately turns out I have a full on cold now, fever and everything.. and combined with the spring allergies coming to me I just can't imagine having the stream this Sunday. It's nothing serious I'm sure,...

MARCH LIVESTREAM POLL

Hiya!

It's high time to schedule this month's stream, but I'm facing a weird dilemma since the end of the month falls far from a weekend. We can either have the stream happen this Sunday, or next week on Thursday. The time on either day would be 5pm CET. 

To me both days work equally well, so I thought we can solve this democrat...

Behind the scenes at the Royal Albert Hall

Today we wrapped up Classical Spectacular - not only was it my first time playing at the Royal Albert Hall (duh), but also my UK debut.

I'm super stoked with how it went, I couldn't ask for a better time. The 7th show concluded today, and I shot a quick behind the scenes for all of you right after getting off stage.

Enjoy!

Yoyoyooo,

I thought there was enough of analytical talk and tabs as of late, so here's me talking for 20 minutes about how exactly we came up with and recorded the official video for Kashmir.

It's probably my favorite official video (for now), and it was a really cool experience making it with Mortvideo.

Here's the 2nd part of my Asturias breakdown, here especially I talk about more non-guitar things, like the idea I used while "jazzifying" the slow part, and rhythmic approaches in the harmonic tapping part.

Heyyyyy!

Here's an overview of my arrangement of Asturias. I talk about how I approach arranging it, also from a non guitar perspective, and about all of the techniques I use.
