    Ryogen, he died on 18th September 2017 for a cancer.
    He had been fought against the cancer in during last few years.
    As you can see from this performance, he was a young,
    very talented guitarist and a musician.
    I hope many people will remember this artist, and the performance
    as much as possible.
    R.I.P

    The fact he is playing while fighting cancer in this video means a lot to me. Doing what he loves - not focused on anything else. Sharing his passion and music till he couldn’t anymore. Beautiful music, beautiful soul. May I meet you someday, somehow, somewhere brother. May your music and passion teach others as it has taught me. Thank you.

    all the thumbs down are sad to see. I have been playing guitar for 22 years and this guy may not have the most virtuosity I have ever seen but he certainly has his own style and is creating a mood and expressing himself in a very honest and beautiful way, and his use of electronic looping is seamless. I can tell he has put a lot of time into developing his craft.

    I closed my eyes and as I listened, I could picture an underwater world full of life and color, the sounds of whalesong and dolphins singing, bubbles coming out of air pockets, and I was a passerby watching this world float past me, man. This was magical.

    A phenomenal player. This music will not mean much to casual listeners. Only the ones who plays the instrument knows what he is doing.
    And indeed it is phenomenal. Beyond words. Totally one of a kind. Not just the technical prowess that he has, but on top of it ,he adds his own story + emotion + feel + depth and dimension to an experience of the vast water body deep inside where life just blooms in its totality.
    I just knew recently that he died . He played magnificently beyond words.

    This is soul music. You're not bored. You're relaxed.

  • @firecracker6312

    As mentioned by some he has recently passed away, only 11 months after this performance.
    Fighting against cancer he lost his hair, and I believe since then he has gone into the idea of body painting.
    Putting the fact aside, I feel his music is truly coming from his inner soul. To me he was and still is a true artist.
    Anybody who has a say about the style should search “ryogen guitar”. Often he was more aggressively percussive and that too was fun to listen or see.
    By the time of this performance he should have been aware his condition was far from perfect. However even after this date he kept on fighting and performing until the very last moment. I can only respect for the guts he has shown.
    Sorry for the long post but I thought there are things worth mentioning.
    R.I.P. Ryogen. I hope your music continues to live in one’s heart.

  • @FlyingPigMD
    @FlyingPigMD 7 ปีที่แล้ว +971

    Let's be real here for a second: yeah he is using pedals to get the sound but have you guitar players forgotten that they're just tool. Listen and watch closely or have you forgotten what that was like when you first started learning? Get a sense of his timing and rhythm, his techniques, and more importantly how he simply isn't playing but creating something. It's not all technical. People forget too easily that playing an instrument looses all purpose when the player doesn't add something of their self to what they do. And that goes for anything in life. So be real: this guy is phenomenal and if you could do half of what he can then congrats. Be proud of yourself but stay humble and learn even more.

      I've been rocking every guitar I could get my hands on and in my humble opinion. This card was a genius many guitarists are perfectionists to a fault. its in our nature.this fellow may be using effects most of us do unless your frigging tommy emanuelle so this man wrote music here that I've just discovered and will be playing for years to come on Sunday mornings with sir Elton and esperanza Spalding thank you very much

    Just to let you people know, this young man, who just loved playing the guitar and didn't hesitate at all to share with the world what he's got, died of cancer.
    If you have time to be sarcastic, use that time to go out there and express yourselves and show the world what you have, because while some may criticize you, there are also others waiting for that gift you have!

      Well, I suppose no information on this is provided in English. It's on his official twitter in Japanese. Other musicians and artists who worked with him have talked about it on their websites, tool, so it seems to be very true that he passed away...sadly...as far as I consider all those articles in Japanese.

    There is a lot more going on here than a lot of the cynical musicians in the comment sections are appreciating. I've been playing guitar for 20 years and am a guitar teacher at a music school and I thought the song itself, the use of visual art, and the tasteful application of electronic effects made a beautiful piece of work here.

    AbSOULutely Divine & sanctifying, truly. He's quite the bodhisattva maestro, huh?! That said, his ineffably soothing, pure music has crystallized my mind & body into a greater magnitude of innocence and peace. God bless your novelty & brilliance in heaven, Ryogen, as this masterpiece supports & enriches my connection with God. In fact, when I first listened to this piece years ago after smoking DMT: the spirit molecule (several times), I cannot help but be reminded of the etheREAL planes I traversed while out of body, including this polychromatic pink realm that was fraught with God's purest angelic Agape-Love and serene peace. (I became one with an oceanic cloud of purest love and peace, of which it felt like many souls melding as one monadic body.) Thank you for the gift you left behind.
    God bless you all, truly.
    Wishing you pure peace and supreme excellence in your dharmic pursuit.

    I'm not a guitar expert so if people that know better regarding guitar are saying he's doing a "basic" job, well, okay.
    But this guy is freaking talented. The whole composition, using more than 4 notes, the atmosphere, the mastering of the instruments... Well, everything is composing the music, doing the same kind of job than Mozart or Bach.
    If people like what you did, then you've done great. Music is sharing and this guy has done it very well.

    The love of music, perseverance, and creativity leads every guitarist his success. Constant practice and exercise brings perfection. When someone reach the top, never forget to look back where he started. Aware of his health condition maybe, then thats the time he put all his soul in music. It's worth remembering, may his soul find eternal peace.

    • @danielc9149
      @danielc9149 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Renzo San Juan The use of pedals requires skills? Jesus christ dude he used the same passive effects for the entire song. The reason no other guitarists are up there is because most musicians primary goal and proof of their accomplishments comes about through recognition from OTHER MUSICIANS. Not to mention this is literally shameful to the artist. It is a gimmick, and as an artist it is belittling to pretend that this is somehow performance art worthy, thus most guitarists would have far too much pride to play this in front of an audience. And like 90% of them could play it if they invested 2 hours of their time.

      @renzosanjuan4033 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      I know that it isn't that difficult at all. The point I'm making is that he is an artist. His main act may not be the guitar playing but the performance itself. The lighting, body paint, just the whole atmosphere. That's all I'm trying to say, my friend. Enjoy everything else if the guitar playing isn't pleasing you

      He's ok. There are many musicians around the world who play on the street and because of their environment ppl don't give them the time of day and just overlook their talent. It's more about how you market music nowadays rather than how you make it unfortunately.

      After his 3rd round about i did the same... It's a "little" too much the same over and over, the delay is not helping in anyway.. :D It's just simple chord progression with phaser, reverb and delay, and not even played "really tight".. NOT saying I could do it better, but I bet Tommy Emmanuel could do this effect, and maybe even better clean sounding with just his Maton guitar and maybe a little compressor and reverb.. The delay is his 10 fingers. ;) Best Regards Thomas
