NateJMusic....Man Im just a guy who likes to pick up guitars and try to improv with music of all kinds. I use some musical basics and pretty much nothing else and improvise my way thru everything I upload. I have tons of work i intend to share if possible so we'll see.....thank you for listening it's appreciated.
Richard my friend I'm a lover of music in all forms and genres... some more than others of course but music is such a healer and I only wish it continues healing us all. My abilities are not from technical skills but from just trying to express what I'm thinking when doing these improvs. A little fretboard knowledge and such helps no doubt but that's about how gifted I feel....I very much appreciate your words and thoughts.....and definitely wish to upload the tons of improvs I have.....the jury is still out on that. I'm really enjoying your work so keep it coming my friend.
I'm always amazed by people that can play like this. About all I can do is knock out some heavily distorted heavy metal riffs one at a time for the sake of recording and piecing together a track. I've always wanted to be this good, but my attention span for learning it is severely lacking. And when I do have the focus, there are so many interruptions, I still can't focus. You know what I mean?
Anyhow, this isn't about me. This is about a beautiful acoustic piece that you have performed. I read in one of your replies to a comment below that you improvise everything. That's damned impressive.
I can't put my finger on why or how, but this almost has a bit of Latin flavor. The melancholic nature of this is touching. A very emotional piece. I'm guessing there was someone in mind while you played this. Either someone that you care deeply for, or there's a longing for them, and this is your confession from a distance.
At any rate. Beautiful piece, and thank you for sharing.
Take care

Hi JohnM....appreciate you listening to this track....have not uploaded but a couple of things I've done but that'll change....thank you again my friend.
after listening to it many times, i now have a strong sense of the track and its melancholy. the sounds are beautifully emotive, with a clean recording and exceptional overall production. the fact that it was all improvised and played in one take is impressive on its own. i'll keep listening and thinking about how to play along with it - there's plenty of space, making it perfect for practicing soft, ancillary playing. wonderful acoustic track, thanks a lot for sharing!
all the best,
savino
HiDoudei.....i will say this to you, first there's nothing you can't do if you try hard enough....I'm not a guitar player but someone who loves to play the guitar. I don't read music and improvise on everything I play. I have learned a lot by listening and just absorbing everything I can from the so many available tools and just the love of the instrument....this particular track was really easy to map out a nice story to improvise. I could see you playing it or making some nice twist yourself. It's all from the heart for me, you hear a nice short melody and just imagine a short line or two to complement it and before you know it....it's your piece of music...I very much appreciate your listening to this track and have so much more to upload. I have tons of things I've done with music tracks that I would like to share but done know if it's possible....so we'll see. Again thank you and keep playing.
Hi Richard....I promise you im not a guitar player like i wish I was, but I've always believed you can do so much if you try hard enough....everything i do is improvised and I'm not ashamed to admit it....I play just from the love of the instrument and try to learn as much as possible and absorb and use what I learn....learning the fretboard is key and opens up many possibilities and opportunities to create. I appreciate your words and listening to this track and have so much more to upload. I also look forward to more of your work as well.
David i do appreciate you listening to this track.....I only wish I was a true player, I've admired the guitar for a thousand years it seems......I just never took the time to really learn. But I never stopped trying to navigate around some fundamentals which help me to enjoy a little success these days. So I like to tell folk I'm not a guitar player but I love to play like I am......if that makes sense. Again thank you for your listening.
Ill put it simply: You can do it! You have the ability to make your instrument tell a story. Your timing is excellent, your technique is superb, and you express yourself and your emotions beautifully through your guitar. Truly gifted!
I hope this talent is recognized beyond the LM world. Here, we can only express our admiration, but unfortunately, it remains just a token of appreciation. Take this to the studios and apply as a session musician. I believe you could be successful.
The recording is also technically very good. How did you record the Ibanez? With a pickup or a microphone? I would love to know because it sounds very professional.
Hi Manuela....I very much appreciate your kind words and thoughts about this track, it really was as simple as all the other tracks recorded using loops and backing tracks as the background accompanying music. I record using a tascam 8 track recorder and tc electronics pedal for tones and effects. I use wireless pickups for guitar and pedal connectivity and a fender 100 or fender 50 champion for the real wide open studio effect. I only mix and master 2 channels of sound to get the acoustic sounds and it works out pretty good. I'm an older guy so im not really trying to expand my guitar music or playing or whatever you would call it. Im happy just to do what I do and if folk like it then I'm happy....I do appreciate your words greatly and just intend to be a part of this forum
What I know is that I listen to your guitar for as long as you play it. You can keep your audience with warm feelings for your music, so you can be on a stage improvising as you say, and no one would be out of your world. It is natural but not without practice and time dedicated to playing and understanding harmonies and scales and other things related to musical theory. I am a fun.
Best wishes, Anthony
AnthonyA my friend, you are to kind but I do very much appreciate your thoughts and as well your music.....we surprise ourselves when we try hard enough to make that conscious effort to express.....music to me is the best way to keep a record of your inner feelings about any and everything....my words to RitaJustRita are pretty much the same thing....music has no age just a beginning and ending until the next episode....let's continue to experiment and do what we do with respect to all.
My reply to your first comment was a little jacked....would not let me finish....but anyway my friend I thank you for checking it out....I'm not a guitar player just a guitar lover.....really from way back. Believe it or not I improvise all of this from start to finish....I've learned the fretboard pretty well but allow the feeling to dictate the notes I play. It may be the harder way of playing but it's what I do.....I do appreciate the heck out of folks like yourself who are very talented and love to listen to your creations....so keep it coming....thank you again brother.
Man....this makes me want to get my acoustic out and play. Guitar was the first instrument pcked up, at 5 yrs old. Then throughout my teens, I was convinced I was going to be a rock star lol. I was in a few bands, one really good one. But we never played anything as pure as this. I wouldnt have understood it back then. But as a person gets older, sometimes their soul just craves something its hard to put a name on. That something is exactly something like this. Bravo man. Im moved. - Aaron
This was a very pleasant listen. Beautiful phrasing at times and a constantly wandering melody.
I did not hear a recurring theme or repeated section. I believe a tiny bit of compression would be beneficial and a few initial notes seem to have their transient cut off and begin with a kind of swell. Sounds like an editing issue and not including the first pluck of a phrase. Sounds really good and I enjoyed it!
Hi Evisma....appreciate the listen and comment. I think your comments are spot on my friend......I will say I agree so much with this because of the fact I recorded this entire track once. I improvised from start to finish playing along side a loop. My intention was not to even upload it but decided it was decent enough to do so. My other track uploaded was done the same way. Of course future uploads will be mastered a bit better but these 2 I let it fly. I again appreciate your thoughts....very valuable and I thank you.
Hey my brother....appreciate the listen and thank you for your thoughts....what would we do without a little music everyday?.....I have no clue but let's keep it coming.
Gorgeous playing - the interplay between guitars always creates such wonderful depth and interest - even somewhat when the playing is not so great (as in my own) - but here the playing is exceptional and beautifully recorded, balanced and produced.
Your comments are very much appreciated , sometime it's the small things that stand out the most in music and it's possible by anyone if you try....im still learning the fretboard and it's possibilities....we need music in our lives more than ever.....keep playing my friend.
Thanks for those kind words my friend....we share a love of music in all it's possibilities. There so much to come from people such as yourself and other members of this site.....glad to be a part of it, look forward to more of your work as well.
I appreciate your comment very much...it's the feeling that make it possible, the guitar can say many things....I do my best to express it...thanks again.
I've listened to both of these tracks, a couple of times each. Admittedly, that was while I'm working so they didn't get my undivided attention. But for all that, they are both beautifully played and produced. I am highly envious of your feel and technical proficiency! And it is so good to hear more acoustic, human music here amidst so much over-produced stuff. By the way, my acoustic is an Ibanez too. Don't' remember the model but it is a large bodied, solid top thing. Bought with a tiny bit of money I inherited from my German grandmother 30 or so years ago (when I was in my 20's). I call it Berna after her. It has a nice sound but the action is too high now. I need to try and get it fixed up. Still has a nice tone though. Anyway, keep em coming. Like Dimestop I sometimes attempt to sing so be careful. All the best, Zoot.
Hello Zootman....of course I appreciate your post very much, I'm just a lover of music and feel pretty much through everything I play. I'm not a true player....I pretty much have taught myself enough to express what I feel through guitar practices and techniques but mainly it's the feeling. Thanks again for your kinds words. I do favor Ibanez acoustics as well as electrics....have several hollowbodies with the thinline body. I do believe the acoustic guitar has ability to express without being as loud as its electric counterpart.Theres definitely a place for both....just depends on the individual i guess. I do like them both and will continue to experiment. Once again appreciate you and until next time.
Now this was a very pleasant piece to listen to. A nice piece of accoustic art indeed. I really like this one. Its very soothing as well. And i can appreciate some relaxation and lay low music. So yeah one for the favourites indeed. And thank you for making this beautifull song. It has been very wel executed. Keep on creating & have a good one, Verdi
Brilliant, bloody brilliant. This performance is top quality, absolute high class, more than pro. Feeling, technicality and sound are both lift the production out from todays trash. Thanx for the upload, instant fav.
Fistbump,
Danke
Danke....you are too kind, I very much appreciate your words, my love of music is a lifelong love and feel we all have something to offer. I play what I feel and it comes a lot easier that way....for me anyway. Thanks again for your kind words.
got me bro straight up first string, i love accoustic guitar, the most beautiful and calming of any instrument, i love piano too but a guitar especially with a male or female singing and softly delivered is simply bliss to my ears, great playing and a fantastic sound which the Ibanez is renound for, its super f#cking cool looking to, excellent, please share more of your craft bro, i even feel i could write a good song to just guitar and deliver it emotionally, keeping my eye on you for all the right reasons glenn :))
Appreciate your craft as well my friend....I truly believe we all have something to say as well as something to play if the moment is there....I never learned to play like I wish I could have but never lost the love of guitar...so I play on and appreciate what I can do. What you do is pretty special and hope you produce produce produce. It's great for all of us. I'll do my best to share as well, do your thing my brother.
I have listened to both of your tracks. Of course Lifetime was recorded in a better way and the sound is much better with nice melodies coming out of your guitar. Very well done
Best wishes, Anthony
Thanks Anthony....my recording is pretty much the same except for a little more decay and fxlevel and tone here and there. The loop on other side of nowhere was rather short but quite intriguing to improvise to. I appreciate you listening to these tracks and have more to upload soon....take care amd godbless.
That's a really nice sound from a great guitar. Im looking into buying a Luna acoustic Bass because my shitty Amazon Essential one lost the A string and it's not worth the replacement.... But it is super thick compared to an Ibanez but absolutely nowhere near as sturdy.
Description : NOTICE: this song is made ONLY FOR NON-COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. Contains an emulation of a TM legendary song (send to the original authors, i add them on Fb time ago).
This is a surprise, for those was young in 1999, for the beloved Patricia (and the gift of her voice) and my brothers Nous2 and Jamid, kind people i met here. Let's go crying guys, hope you enjoy.
Description : There were two separate tracks in work, but who knows why I got tired with them and then decided to merge them (or at least what left from them) into one piece hence they originate out of same musical purpose. No worries...no world war was ment here, except my recent personal one...haha...and you don't want to know about it.:) It's not real etude by any means, yet it's quite alot about practicing...practicing...

Description : Again, another early production from like two years ago. I had a cheap little Yamaha acoustic guitar that I borrowed and mic'd and some congas that were given to me as a birthday present. I used my iPad GarageBand app to record the strings and the big bass drum thingy at the interlude and little electric guitar parts in there too haha. All the vocals were done by myself and my brother throws in some little things here and there with his voice :P Enjoy!

Anyhow, this isn't about me. This is about a beautiful acoustic piece that you have performed. I read in one of your replies to a comment below that you improvise everything. That's damned impressive.
I can't put my finger on why or how, but this almost has a bit of Latin flavor. The melancholic nature of this is touching. A very emotional piece. I'm guessing there was someone in mind while you played this. Either someone that you care deeply for, or there's a longing for them, and this is your confession from a distance.
At any rate. Beautiful piece, and thank you for sharing.
Take care
