Another Day In Paradise / Kolejny Dzień W Raju : early viewing

Hi there!

This is one of the more nostalgic songs for me. I remember that I had the "...but seriously?" cassette (haha, now you know why I made the "Retro Poland Vol.1" cover art like that!) in my late Fiat Seicento . I listened to it on repeat for many years and the first song - "Another Day In Paradise" was always so great. I remember getting back from rehearsals when I was much younger and just sitting in the car in the parking lot, smoking and listening to this song. It was a song t...

Here's the mp3 of Kettle!

Today I'm recording something special. It's the GTA San Andreas theme, but... I changed it in a fun way! You'll see in time.

Kettle - Full Tab - PDF + GP5 (+ a short story)

Hi guys! Ahh, now I'm well rested so I can start making stuff again.

Hi guys!

Ahh, now I'm well rested so I can start making stuff again. Yesterday I had to clean up my hard drives because the C and D drives were 90% full. It's mainly because the videos are uncompressed files that are very big. I could have made them a bit smaller, but the quality is perfection. That's why I leave it like that. I had three SD drives working at the same time to manage this stuff. During this proces...

A little announcement

Hi there my dear Retro Poland citizens! I have to tell you that my last 2 weeks were a constant barrage of hard work and I need to rest a bit. First the desert, then my car broke down, then the genie clip and yesterday I shot my video for the upcoming week (Another Day In Paradise) as fast as I could because I wanted the Autumn aesthetic. I'm a bit worn out, and need this weekend to chill out a bit, clean the workspace. I will post tabs and mp3 for "Kettle" after the weekend. Still, it was al...

Kettle - Retro Poland Original : early viewing

Hi there!

Today is a big day! From the moment I started this series, I had a few songs in the works. I released a few albums and EP's earlier, but none of them in this style. Many of you asked me for my original songs so... This is it! My first Retro Poland Original song - Kettle. Have fun with this one! I sure had a blast while making it!

Hi!

Here's the tab for Africa! This song is one of the easier ones. There are some tricky hybrid picking arpeggios here an there, but overall it's simple. The solo is fun to play once you nail it (watch out for the A-maj sweep). Have fun with this one!

Africa / Afryka : early viewing

Hi there!

This time I wanted to do another one of those "ambitious" music videos. First we wanted to film it in the palm house, but the person selling tickets told us that we can't film there because you need a permission etc. I was a bit mad, but kinda thought that it's a thing that might happen. We had a plan B which is the desert! Or a thing that resembles a desert in Poland and is not that far away (2hrs). The weather was perfect for October, beside filming a cool music video we fel...

Hi there!

This one was a strange case. It had parts that were very hard and parts that were easy. The funky part imitating the synth was very hard to precisely play. The solo was mid, most of it was rather easy. I'm very happy that I managed to transcribe the synth riff into a guitar riff, because it was not an easy task. I always wanted to play this on guitar like that. Btw, it's one...

Voodoo People / Ludzie Wudu : early viewing

Here's my little gift for you. As usual I always want to do a few covers just because I love the original song. So here's my cover of The Prodigy classic. As some of you know, I'm a big fan of The Prodigy and it's a must to cover some of their songs. This is more comparable to the Pendulum remix which I consider a perfect cover. The synth line from the original song is my favorite synth line ever created. I always wanted to play it with a different flavor. This is by far the most ambitious mu...

Hi there!

Here's the tab for the whole thing. It's more of a rhythmical/groovy song, then a technical shred-fest. Lots of hybrid picking and palm muting. The riff of this song is like a "solo" itself. I think that this version of the main riff is a bit easier then the original one, but maybe that's just for me, hehehe. Have fun with it!

Money For Nothing / Pieniądze Za Nic : early viewing

Dear Citizens!

Here's a new video, showcasing our Retro Poland vast array of TV programs and commercials. The song here is one of the more anticipated ones. Dire Straits - Money For Nothing. It was really fun to make. It was so cold there, that I finally felt that the jacket helped me with enduring. Have Fun!

Hi there!

Here's the tab for The Trooper! This one is very hard. This solo is probably the most unforgiving. I wanted to change things up, because the Iron Maiden solo sounded good on distortion, but not on clean. Bar 47-48 of the solo is probably the hardest Retro Poland moment out there. It doesn't look that bad, but believe me - if you want it to sound good, you need to ...

Greetings!

It's time to officially start Retro Poland Vol.2. I told you that I'm going on a little vacation… Well as usual, I'm always on duty, and couldn't resist making a video. Also I really wanted to film something in the Polish seaside. Whatever, this is the first single, have fun!

Retro Poland Season 2!

Dear Citizens! I had a little time off. Now it's time to get this show on the road! This here is my first rendition of Wonderwall that got scrapped yesterday. I think that the technique used in this video is kinda fun so I will leave it here for the curious ones. The IG version is superior but I like this one as well and don't want it getting lost. :)

Hi there!

I've just started working on new covers and thought that it's a great moment to finalize Season 1 of Retro Poland with this big archive. Everything is sorted from 1-40 and every IG song is tabbed. Have a great time!

PS. I'm taking a break till next week. It's because Retro Poland Vol.2 + Season 2 starts next week!

Cheers!

Hello! Here's the full tab of Message In A Bottle.

Hello! Here's the full tab of Message In A Bottle. This one is a bit brutal during the first verse, it took me 2 days two nail it up to tempo. It was hard to transcribe Sting's singing with the riff. Also the harmonized parts are hard, mainly because they are played on one guitar, hehe.

Time for the penultimate tab - Iron Man. I really like the rawness that it presents. The solo is not that easy to play, you need to slowly work out those hybrid picking parts. Have fun!

3rd Goal Reached! - 375$

Hello! Today I gladly announce that we've reached the 3rd Patreon goal (375$)!

To explain it in detail, the production of one Retro Poland cover costs approx 500zł/125$. The costs consist of mixing the song, tape for the vhs-c camera and some simple props etc. I'm very excited about it and I thank you all for supporting me and of course our Retro Poland authorities.

As a present here's another unpublished IG video that got lost in time. It's a little hybrid picking prog song. Ha...

Blue (Da Ba Dee) - Full Tab - Gp5 + PDF

Hi there! Time for the Blue (Da Ba Dee) tab!

Hi there! Time for the Blue (Da Ba Dee) tab! It's a bit on the harder side, because of the hybrid picking and weird fingering of some arpeggios. Also the verse is very disorienting with the tritone in the middle. The solo has it's quirks also. Still it's a great song and very fun to play when mastered. Have fun!

Greetings dear citizens! Today we present the highly anticipated "Blue (Da Ba Dee)". I don't know why, but some weird and ominous glitches started popping up here and there. I think that we will need to discuss this blasphemy with the Ministry Of Culture.

Btw, sorry for the lack of activity, but I was recording the last songs + last videos for Retro Poland Vol.1 . I gladly announce that the album is finished and next week I will be posting a little "Thank You Package".

Enter Sandman Full Lesson + Pedalboard Reveal

Hi there!

Treat this as a pilot lesson (Although I think it's alright!), because I still have to figure out a way to make it more efficient. It was cool revisiting this song, I hope you will find it fun to play and watch :). Also you will find out what effects do I use for the Retro Poland stuff! I will post the FX stuff later as a separate clip.

I will post a shorter version (5 mins) on YouTube tomorrow (riff, verse, bridge, chorus). This version is exclusive to this Patreon!
