I am glad this video was a success! It was definitely a damn hard song to play, but I'm really happy with how it came out. I hope you all enjoyed as well, whether or not you're into said genre!
2017-09-01 00:47:08 +0000 UTC View PostSuper Mario Odyssey hype! I have extremely high expectations for this soundtrack.
2017-09-01 00:44:12 +0000 UTC View PostYep yep yep. I still have to edit my page and make new announcements, but for all my $5+ patrons, you will now be getting guitar tabs for all of my rock/metal original songs (from this song onwards). You'll also be receiving the "How-To Album" tabs all for free before they are officially released! Anyways, have fun learning this song. BE SURE to warm up before those fast picking tremolo parts.
IF YOU DON'T OWN GUITAR PRO: There's a free program you can use called "Tux Guitar". It plays g...
2017-08-28 22:55:13 +0000 UTC View PostHad a change of plans for this week. The cover has to be delayed, so I'm throwing this song up tomorrow for a new how-to! It's on Technical/Melodic Death Metal. Good ol' heavy

I had too much fun with this one. Despite being so basic, it's probably one of my favorite songs I've written. I've been trying to fuse 80's synth and rock successfully now, and I think this is a decent first step.
Have any requests for now How-To's? Leave a comment below and tell me what you want, Patrons!
2017-08-23 07:39:59 +0000 UTC View PostJust thought I'd show this to you guys. It has some Metroid Prime vibes to it (a lot of MP vibes). It's not fully finished yet and I might change some instruments. I was actually thinking of turning it into a Sci-Fi metal song by adding some guitars. I think there's some potential there for it!
2017-08-23 07:37:27 +0000 UTC View PostHey, guys! While I do have a few things to share, I should also mention that there will be new rewards coming, but also changes to some rewards as well. Just to make sure I can get everything to you consistently. Nothing to worry about! I am very excited to get a good system going and share what I can with you guys whenever. That being said:
- This weekend will very likely be a rock cover of the "Wooded Kingdom" theme from Super Mario Odyssey. Super cool theme with a sweet espionage-style groo...
2017-08-23 07:34:11 +0000 UTC View PostHere is an 80's Motivational Montage-Style song. I hope you enjoy!
I have a backing track + some other new song sneak peeks coming for you $10 patrons very soon!
I usually have a meaning behind the names for my songs, but I give this one it's name because part of the chorus sounds like "I Did it for the money, diiid it for the money" lol.

This song is so good. In fact, the whole soundtrack is pretty damn great. I checked it all out after doing this cover, and I definitely have some ideas for more songs. I want to do ONE of them really badly, mainly because I have some crazy arrangement ideas for that that I've never used in my covers before. But I'm gonna pace myself with some other content before we return. I hope you enjoyed!
2017-08-15 18:58:39 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, guys! This week's video is going to be a little different again, but it does involve video games. I always wanted to try and recreate certain music styles in video games. I thought of a new series I could do after making the "Anime Chords Music Mashup" video. If everything works out, this week, we'll have a "Zelda Music Styles Mashup" (name not final) where I try to recreate various music styles in the Zelda series in a small medley/mashup. I feel like this could both be funny and...wel...
2017-08-15 18:56:16 +0000 UTC View PostI typed "downloaf" first and laughed. ...It's late. The melodies in this song were really fun to play around with!
2017-08-12 09:21:00 +0000 UTC View PostNot going to get too personal, but I was out of the country for a few days to visit a sick family member. Once I got home, they had passed away. I've been taking some time to help out and think about life/chill out. There will still be a cover this week. The early download should be coming tomorrow. Once again, I apologies for the lack of updates. It seems something always comes up. But we'll get right back on track in no time!
2017-08-11 10:21:23 +0000 UTC View PostI sent this track a week or two ago, but now it's officially complete. I hope you guys enjoy it when it drops on Saturday (in a brand new How-To video). This is one of my absolute favorites now!
On another note (no pun intended), the tabs for the How-To album are almost done! You will be receiving the tabs (for free) before the album drops. They may come one by one or all at once. Stay tuned!

I decided to make a mini-mashup of a bunch of covers this time around. This time, it included songs that followed a common chord progression! I thought it would be a fun idea + a small tribute to some cool songs out there, and I really liked how it came out. I also helped get some of the creative juices flowing again, and I am more than thrilled about it! I hope you all enjoy.
2017-08-01 04:39:55 +0000 UTC View Post
Still havent watched this anime, but the music is really damn promising. I will definitely check it out in the future. This cover was fun to do, mainly because of the amount of times the key changes in the song. It was really fun to transition back and forth. I hope you all enjoyed it as well!
2017-07-27 10:31:52 +0000 UTC View PostSo this week will be a little strange. I'm planning to make a medley of anime songs that all follow the same chord progression. I might make for a little interesting/catchy/stupid video, but I think it'll be a lot of fun!
The week after that will be an original song of my own (most likely in a How-To). It's some catchy pop-punk mixed with some of my styles in there. After that, we should be returning to covers.
I will eventually be making a video on my channel asking what people mainly c...
2017-07-27 10:24:24 +0000 UTC View PostHey, everyone. I've been working through the musician's block and brainstorming some ideas. It's taking some time to recover from it. I now see why bands release albums every year or so, rather than making something every week haha. I appreciate this challenge though. I plan to follow through and do my absolute best. I will find a way to balance things out and keep bringing you guys the best content. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, here are some updates.
[This Week] - We're getting a cover from ...
Hope you enjoy. This song has a really damn cool chorus melody
2017-07-21 11:26:17 +0000 UTC View PostTo those who don't know what this is, all you have to do is suggest a song that fits my given theme. If I like it, I will cover it and give it to you guys. If there's enough time, I'll make a video of it and throw your name in! Take a look at the rules. After that, just leave a comment below!
-THEME-
Favorite Anime opening/ending theme of 2017!

2017-07-17 09:13:22 +0000 UTC View PostI actually enjoy the chorus quite a bit. Considering using it for something else if it sticks. I tried out some new mixing techniques. Trying to get the most quality sound I possibly can. It's a long road, but I had fun playing around with this one!
2017-07-14 11:54:29 +0000 UTC View Post
It was a bit of a challenge to go through all the phases, but damn, this was fun. The atmosphere mixed with this song in the game was perfect to me, and to be able to replicate it on guitar was quite the experience. I hope you all enjoyed it!
2017-07-13 12:02:44 +0000 UTC View PostLet me open by just saying thank you all so much for the kind words and support. I still have trouble believing that this is actually something happening to me. I consider myself a very lucky person to have you all around. But enough sentiments, ON WITH THE UPDATES.
This week's video will be "How To: Make a Thrash Metal Song". It's been a request since I started the series, and now people are basically making it a meme in the comments, so I decided to cave in and give it a shot. And what do yo...
2017-07-13 12:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys. Hope you're doing well, and I hope you've been enjoying all the content lately. I just thought I'd get this out of the way now, because it's been bothering me for quite some time (don't worry, this isn't some announcement to say I'll be stopping/delaying videos). I've hit a pretty big musician's/creative block, and I've had it for about 3 months. While I'm able to come up with originals that people enjoy, they slowly end up becoming something I am not happy with. Something I'm not comp...
2017-07-12 04:05:16 +0000 UTC View PostDelayed once again. Internet kept dropping last night when it was done. THANKS, BELL. I hope you guys enjoy this one!

Here's the new tutorial with a brand new original at the end! There's actually a reason I dubbed it "Second Chance". All I will say is that it is related to the channel and it managed to live up to the name successfully. It's only been 3 days and we hit around 20K views. That's just amazing. Thank you all very much for the support (and thank you for spreading the word!).
