sorry to be off topic but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the password. I would love any help you can offer me.
this one was really fun to make. The footage was ripped from some old educational film called A is for Atom. Then the voiceover and music I made myself, layered in some saturation and overdrive + vinyl distortion and pops, then took away the extreme low and high end to get that old-timey sound effect.

This video honestly blew my mind, your level of musicianship and way of explaining it is fantastic. Not to mention the Dreamtheater type tune you came up with!
I just watch. Never really comment, but I have to say that this channel does such an incredible job on speaking and conveying points. When I watch other channels, i don’t find myself learning and enjoying the same way as I do with this channel. Thumbs up! Excellent work.

Jake, I play guitar for fun and I find our videos very helpful in expanding my knowledge of playing going beyond what I call the 4/4 strumming open chords campfire player. As I have come along, a few things that has come very apparent to me. First off I do not like to sing and I have a horrible voice. A lot of people think because you play the guitar you sing but I do not sing. I just like to lean chord sequence or perhaps some of the solo leads, get a good rhythm going and play the song pretty much like I hear it in my head. Also I have a friend who is what I call a recital player meaning he likes to play songs from beginning, middle and end. As for myself I am more of a jam band player which is more improvise style. I will play a verse or a chorus of a song fifty different times in different ways. When I describe this to my friend he said that is fine but when your playing in front of people they will get bored or I would lose their interest if I do not play a song straight. Well my reply is I do not care if I lose my audience. I would rather have one person who is digging what I am doing than to keep an audience by playing it straight. Since I do not sing one thing I like to do is find someone who enjoys singing and let them do the vocals. I think that would add another aspect of my playing. Ok having said all that, do you think I should be comfortable in my own skin of my playing style of or play like a recital robot. It will be very helpful if you can reply to this post. I like to hear what you think. Have a great day. Lawrence
@Jicari Hickory Hill thanks for your replay to my questions. I guess that because I am more of a living room rocker that I can indulged in such free style jam band type of playing. I always considered that to be like a laboratory to formulated new ideas. Everyone would love the cure for cancer but they do not want to watch a bunch of researchers in white jackets in the lab slowly trying to find the cure. I am still pretty good at also playing it straight but I like to experiment and improvise aspect of guitar playing. By doing this I feel eventually I can formulate a song or piece of music in presenting it in a different way. With the weather being nice I think I will go to a public park with my acoustic guitar and play. Who knows I might have some people stop and listen for a bit. Again think you for your reply, I think I will find something in the middle of the two styles. :)
Wow! IAs an Indian I got opener on ta ki ta - ta kia ta and da ga da - da ga da. I heard this in indian classical music and was never able to co relate it with guitar .. this will bring lots of new perspective for me! Thank you so much!
One and Metropolis Part 1, Overture 1928! I love all those songs. Queen's Innuendo has that same march rhythm for the first like minute of it. Pretty cool. I'm gonna add some of these into my compositions.
Something Petrucci likes to do is go from 16th notes to 16th note triplets. It's really common in his playing and you can hear it in almost every solo of his. See the solos for "The Root of All Evil" or "Space Dye Vest Live from the Boston Opera House"
Thank you for this... I don’t know how I’ve gone as long as I have as being an “accomplished” musician while not actually thinking of timing in the manner that you described. You just made a lot come together.
Just began the rhythm course and it's great. A real mind-bender/shaper for me and it's working. Recommended. Will drop in a few more shekels at the end because I see a lot of value for me. Want to support this kind of high-quality work.
In music school, I learned "1 la li" for triplets and "1 a la a li a" for sextuplets. It's pretty easy to say fast. Anyway, I love the channel, man. I've had a lot of teachers and instructors through my years of playing, but few are able to explain concepts so clearly. Even videos on concepts I know pretty well still often give me ideas for new things to try and practice.
First time I wanted to cover "I am the black wizards" by the Norwegian black metal band "Emperor", I used to play sixteen notes, but I felt it doesn't sound right. It took me a long time to learn that "black metal" sub-division of the notes is actually sextuplets and not sixteen notes :))
Hi Jake, awesome video as always. I'm more of a classical guitar player, Bach & Dowland and Weiss etc. Still have been inspired by (i.e. ruthlessly stealing and repurposing) concepts and ideas from your videos for months now ....to produce EDM and techno in my spare time. (: Its just too good content to not do it lol. Mille Grazie for all of it!
Yet another brilliant video from a Magnificent Educator. Your ways of describing concepts are both enjoyable and eye opening. Keep on making great videos and thousands of us will keep waiting for them in breathless anticipation.
Hi Signals Music Studio! Great lesson! Rockweller from Singapore here, and recently we've been dwelling into 16th note triplets. Great tips on how to count sextuplets man!
You had me at the intro! Thanks for the wisdom. I recently came across a super easy lead / melody but struggled with have the count right in advance to playing it.
THIS. Exactly what I am working on right now - thank you for this!!!! This is exactly what my music instructor said - I was so embarrassed having to count out loud but it's a must 😂
I keep coming back to this video just for the little composition at the end. Please flesh it out into a whole song! Such an interesting vibe with lots of potential
"Speaking guitar" is probably a book waiting to happen. I was fortunate enough to have a guitar teacher who taught me to learn this way. Musicianship is all about PHRASING. What better way to 'phrase' than via the method we all use every day, human speech. The first guitar guy I ever hung out with taught me my first 'lick'. A minor pentatonic bending lick using the bottom three strings that we've probably ALL learned at one point or another. Ace Frehley used the hell out of it, as did countless other blues guitar players before him. I went home, practiced the lick for like a week, and the next time I went over, I set out to impress him with my speed! It was messy as hell as you can imagine. That's when he said "Bo Diddly". I said "what"? He said "Bo diddly". He played the lick slowly while saying the phrase to demonstrate. I thought, "okay, so you've got a name for this lick"? He got out his metronome and had me humor him by saying Bo Diddly along to the beat. He increased the speed and had me follow suit. He asked me to practice a few times with the metronome BEFORE trying the lick on my guitar again. I did so, and when I did come back to the guitar I was almost effortlessly able to play the lick much cleaner and faster than before.
I was about to mention the Indian syllabic method of rationalizing rhythms but you just got there. Apparently they learn to vocie it before they play it. Good way to evoke the nervous system and mind coherently.
I just started watching your videos, two so far, and wanted to compliment you on your method of teaching. These videos are well done! Thank you for sharing.
What a great lesson!! Very clear and informative. That 2 feel totally cleared it up for me. I was having trouble feeling it correctly while playing anything besides 3 notes per string but counting it as 3 groups of 2 really helps! Thank you for taking the time to make this 👍
I absolutely love the example music you came up with for the end of the video! I usually do, but this is one of the great ones. Belongs in a real album or soundtrack somewhere. The words that come to mind are "bright," "leaping," "alive," and so forth, but with that lydian ethereal sound, plus the sort of "nostalgic"-feeling marriage to mixolydian at the end (the two best modes for pairing IMO). It reminds me of a lecture I watched once by Leonard Bernstein, who urged the audience to think about music not in conventional metaphorical language (like "leaping," etc.), but in the language of music itself, and I think the explanations of theory and application that precede your example musics in these videos are the best examples of that sort of concrete understanding that I've ever come across.
i noticed something cool that happened as soon as i started practicing this, i IMMEDIATELY improved my picking and rythm.and without even thinking about it, i started tapping my foot
I've been learning a lot from your channel. I'm 28 and i started really late in the music game, but your explanations are awesome. Greetings from Chile.
i couldnt play 8th note tripplets and 16th note sixtupplets a year before and i trained it on a daily basis on my drums, im now king in this subdivisions it makes me so happy because i do a lot of snaredrumming in my music. this kinda subdivision kicked me straight ahead of a much more complex and interesting drumming, it feels like you playin faster than the song is and sounds pretty awsome!!! next step i wanna do is more complex combinations and do that stuff over the toms and so on =) i thought i will never will get it but dats not true, this kinda subdivisions need alot of practice and start really slowly and try to play as exact as you can and try to even out the space between notes as much as you can! took me over a year until i could safely apply it to music, for me its important to play it while i really feel the 8th notes or the quarter notes
I don't play an instrument i wanna make beats and i came here to learn about this (cuz triplets are to common) AND JESUS DUDE YOU CAN TEACH I ACTUALLY LEARNED SOMETHING
I just discovered Metropolis pt. 2 for myself and I loove all these references, not just that rhythm. I'm surprised how perfectly an album/band can suit my taste in music.
Yeah, this. It's easy to stuff complex chords into songs even for a newb, but rhythms don't work that way. You really need to practice and play around with rhythms to make them fun. ( Saying it as a hobbyist who plays only 8th notes and rests for every song, haha. )
I agree, even for clip the comment as top, since rhythm is so fundamentak musical concep. You can play hundreds of esoteric chords, thousands of elevated vocal performances, but if rhythm is not moving tones, timbres and silences, well you are a geeky wannaby. A good musician can hit two gallon bottles and make people smile and dance. Just imagine how different will be Gilmour’s guitars without his rhythmic multitap delays, or Edge’s arpeggios without same kind of delay. What about rap vocals without those sample fragments full of groove as well as the privileged black voices grooving? Same with house and techno, Kraftwerk is cool who can dance at those quantized drums and melodies? House snd Techno got so far mainly since Chicago and Detroit grooves contribution to synth music. I thought.
Really helpful for me! I’m currently making a post-rock album so this definitely helps since that genre usually has weird time signatures. Thanks, man!
I discovered sextuplets in a piano copy of The Hall of the Mountain King and I had no clue how I was supposed to count it let alone play it, so this was very helpful thank you 😁 (despite the fact it was piano music 🎹 not guitar🎸)
For anyone wanna se some insane sextuplet action on the guitar, there’s a sick ascending part early on in Jason Richardson’s solo in the song «Nasty», where he plays sextuplets at 130bpm.
Knowing what you are doing is extremely important ? Really ??? I've been faking it all these years ... Thanks for lernin' me gooder (serious) LOVE YA MAN !!!
Bloody good video this. I do have one more way of counting the sextuplets mind, but it’s subtly close, and it’s how I count sextuplets on my bass drums.
Randy Rhodes had great examples of both sextuplet breakdowns in the Crazy Train solo. The initial finger tapping sextuplets are broken into three groups of two, while the runs leading up to the end are two groups of three-note-per-string legato runs. Also, I think another non-metal example of partial sextuplets that everyone knows would be John Williams’ Imperial March.
Great video, genuinely learned something from this, knew you were going to go to that One riff as you started counting the rhythm! I know you've done a number of videos of counting rhythms but would you be interested in doing a condensed video whereby you talk through the most common ones?

use a metronome.

Your videos are always amazing and super helpful. Thank you.
Bloody good video this. I do have one more way of counting the sextuplets mind, but it’s subtly close, and it’s how I count sextuplets on my bass drums.
Randy Rhodes had great examples of both sextuplet breakdowns in the Crazy Train solo. The initial finger tapping sextuplets are broken into three groups of two, while the runs leading up to the end are two groups of three-note-per-string legato runs.
Also, I think another non-metal example of partial sextuplets that everyone knows would be John Williams’ Imperial March.
Ha! Great intro! I love your vids, Jake!
I heard the same dream theater motif in the intro of Dance of Eternity, completely unchanged from Overture 1928 from just a few songs ago.
Great video, genuinely learned something from this, knew you were going to go to that One riff as you started counting the rhythm! I know you've done a number of videos of counting rhythms but would you be interested in doing a condensed video whereby you talk through the most common ones?
Dude! That rhythm (minute 14) reminds me a lot about the opening music score of an old game called “Golden Axe 2”!
