The probable conclusion to the Riffing With Modes series is FINALLY here!
It will post to the public tomorrow morning but right now it's only viewable for Patreon members. Make sure you check out the video description in the YouTube link to see the important links and more info on this song in general.
I will be making another post here in a few hours to collect questions ...

I've also attached an old song I made for fun, I will reference it in the stream.

2021-01-26 23:08:21 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
I'm back from a week long trip to the desert and it looks like I'll be cooped up here for the next few days since there's a blizzard on the way - quite a change of pace! Anyways, it's time to get back working- I wanted to do a livestream today in a few hours but I didn't have time to collect questions yet.
So Please- Ask away here! Tomorrows livestream will be at 6PM CST. After that, we will be doing a live stream EVERY MONDAY in February with alternating times. ...

HEY FOLKS!
I'm not one to jump on bandwagons, but this type of video was something I had planned for a long time but never got around to making, and just this week I heard the call of the internet to make this.

I also made this to take a break from the Locrian video which was giving me more headaches than even my most difficult videos. I’ve also been very busy in my pers...

2021-01-05 00:56:59 +0000 UTC View PostHappy New Year everybody, hope these first few days of 2021 are treating you well!
Tomorrow night at 8PM we will be doing another live lesson / Q+A and I'd love for you to ask your questions for me here so I can prepare a good answer for you by then.
The link will post tomorrow evening - Looking forward to seeing you all then!

Hope you all get a laugh out of this one, and hope you enjoy the holiday season! This is private for a few hours then it'll go public.
Some fun chords in here too ;)

2020-12-21 19:03:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Hope you're all finding time to enjoy the holidays- If you're lucky enough to be free from work this week, consider joining tomorrow's live stream lesson at 2PM CST.
I'll be answering the questions that you post here on Patreon and possibly some that made it into my inbox. Keep in mind that Patreon's messaging system is in very bad shape right now so I have likely missed some messages but have been keeping up with emails.
Tomorrow's livestream will have to stay...

Howdy folks! I'd hate to keep spamming you with stuff about this course, but there's a few final important bits of info you all need to know. First off, if you seemed to be locked out of the course, you just need to log back in again. The login option is on the top right, it was harder to see before so we've made it more obvious.
Secondly- the password protected Name Your Own Price link will have to go away in order for me to sell this course publicly. Instead, I will be providing you with...
Hey everyone! It's been a wild week but I'm happy to say that most, if not all, of the issues with the course have been worked out. I've had several students make their way through the majority of the content already (despite my advice to take it slow :P) but their efforts have revealed several mistakes that needed repair.
I can't guarantee it's 100% error free but I DO recommend if you haven't signed up yet, you do so now!
IMPORTANT: The link and password I posted earlier w...
2020-12-13 15:35:44 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone- I'm glad to report that the worrysome problems I encountered when launching the course seemed to be anomalous and only affected the first few videos. While I'm certain there will be small typos and changes needed to worksheets and quick guides, I think the course is in good shape to go and would encourage you to sign up!
What's far more dysfunctional than my course launch though is Patreon's UI and messaging system. It's absolutely broken. I specifically want to resp...
2020-12-10 17:18:11 +0000 UTC View PostHey Everyone!
The Course is "technically" done... but of course there are some issues. I'm working hard to resolve them all ASAP.
First, there were some catastrophic video glitches that somehow made it into the final renders of some videos. I literally can not explain how or why.
Secondly, the site's lack of SSL is a problem. We should have moved it back to the main site before releasing this.
If you decide to embark on the course RIGHT NOW, pl...

Hello from the other side! I've been in a different dimension since I last posted here. A dimension of non-stop editing, filming, and pdf design. I've been burning the candle at both ends because it's literally the only way this course is gonna get done.
And getting done it is!
I expect the Signals Theory and Songwriting Course (Guitar Edition) to be available to -all- Patreon members by December 7th. The full course is $270, and I'll be offering it on sale during the holida...

Today's livestream has been postponed by one day, and instead will be tomorrow(Tuesday the 17th) at 2PM CST.
Very sorry for the delay! I forgot to post a thread yesterday and collect questions, so please ask them here instead.
If you can't make it, I'll be doing another one before the month ends to make up for my lack of youtube content. Hope to see you then =)

I received a ton of EXCELLENT questions already and don't want to skimp on answering them correctly, so I have a feeling I might not get to all of them tonight. If that's the case, then I will schedule another stream for tomorrow night to get to everyone's questions :)
See you in 3 hours!
Tomorrow night at 8PM CST we'll be doing another live lesson / Q+A. Post your questions here and I'll address them at the start. Join in live and ask your questions afterwards!
If you miss the stream, the video will be available afterwards. The next livestream is scheduled for 2:00PM CST on Nov 16.
Tomorrow evening there will be a new post several hours before the stream starts with the link to the youtube page. Hope to see you all there!!!

Patreon member Luke had sent me a message asking about how he can better improve his timing when practicing the Hotel California guitar solo.
I figured it would provide a great opportunity to share with you all how I go about perfecting my timing when learning leads by using counting methods.
This is not specific to guitar! Any lead player will benefit from learning this method. It will also help with improvising and composing as well, not just learning + repeating :)

If you can't make it today, just drop a question below and I'll be sure to answer it during the stream =)

Welp I wrote an acapella about not being able to sing acapella and this is the end result. I somehow thought this was going to be an easy video and expected to have it done Sunday night but the final stages of editing proved way harder than I expected. Regardless, I'm glad to have this one done!
This is clearly a different type of video than my normal one, but I really do believe that every single composer needs to be thinking about production and should at least have some basics under ...

Before I talk about this new video I want to make sure you all know that I'll be doing a live lesson tomorrow night at 8PM Central Time. I'll post a link in the morning here so you can all join!
It's been a while since you've heard from me because I've been working on 3 seperate youtube videos (instead of 1 at a time like a normal productive person), but one is finally finished - It is now live for just you Patreon members and will go live to the rest of the world tomorrow morning...
