Sup, fellow TL people!

I've been messing around with a really interesting alternate tuning on the guitar the entire night, EBEGAD, and ended up with a (somewhat) complete acoustic instrumental. I don't usually share stuff that I've composed myself, due to some kind of inferiority complex, but I figured what the hell. I'm kind of satisfied with the end result.



Beware though, it has some moments of retardation in it, due to the fact that this is one of the first play-throughs of the entire thing.

You might want to think more carefully about your pacing and use of thematic content (both sectionally and also the overall form of the piece), and maybe even pair down the ideas a little (the amount of ideas you have can work, but transitionally some of the material is a bit abrupt or less developed, which put the rest of the piece a little off kilter), but you have a lot of interesting gestural ideas and neat textures going on here. Nice job man, keep it up!

I like it a lot. The style and flow of this piece reminds me of the guitar playing of Andy McKee & Antoine Dufour.

If you record anything again you wouldn't be able to get your right hand in too would you? I'd love to see how you were playing, I'm guessing fingerstyle and from I could see lots of open strings? (Exactly the kind of stuff I'm learning right now) Awesome job none the less.

One of my problems is that once I get inspired I get way too much material coming. I either try to put some of it together and complete something, or I end up with what I usually end up with; two dozen of musical ideas that in the end amount to nothing (I kid you not; I have literally a thousand riffs/melodies/sequences that will never end up in anything useful). It's like a musical ADHD disorder, in a way. XD Very annoying.

Yeh, it was a failed camera angle. :D It's obviously a fingerstyle, sort of inspired by McKee (as pointed out), and the whole point of a tuning like this is indeed to use a lot of open strings.

Thanks, this is exactly what I'm learning :D I'd never be able to compose something like this though :s

Composing your own music is really fucking cool and it sounded quite good. It did feel a bit chaotic for me tho.
