If he didn't approve he would have flooded your basement by now. 😃🤪😎🤓 Love the intro! Gorgeous sounds.
He does. He was the first air guitarist. 🎸
True, but i seem to remember he left that up to the angels, who were using harps instead.
It's amazing Bill! love it, it touches my soul deeply.
I'm an atheist Bill and I approve of your music.
Best comment for this video! Thank you - full respect and love to you!
Same here!
A catholic padre told me once: you may not be religious, but you’re a spiritual person.
Thank you Bill for being a permanent source of inspiration 🙏
lol
All Creation declares His glory, and the Universe, His majesty. He looks straight into the heart of the worshiper and blesses both the just and the unjust.
Or not. Probably not on balance. And why always a 'he'??
@@positiveimageltd 😂. You will get all of your answers.
@@bryantwalley based on what? I don't think so.
@@positiveimageltd it doesn't matter what we think. Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess.
I hope you see this Bill - I know this is late. I don't know how I missed this in my feed. Thank you for the song, the title, for getting a few conversations going, and especially your amazing replies to some of the comments. They are great examples for others to learn from and follow. And by others, I would put myself at the top of that list.
Next level.
Love the style. Such a peaceful beautiful song.
Our Father's heart dances when we harness our talents to glorify Him.Absolutely. Resonate with Creation,it's beautiful
Kinda john Martyn ish maybe durutti column ......can you do alesis quadraverb ?
I do rather hope so, given how a lot of my electric guitar style at church is what I’d call “ambient” 🙏🏻😇
Certainly, and I see the beauty of creation at the moment Chords of Orion inspired many.
Whoa I need a joint! No wait.. I don't smoke pot. That was REALLY trippy.
Beautiful
This is so beautiful Bill. Thanks 🙏
That gorgeous fat hollow body sound made the piece almost burst into a supernova outbreak. Combined with the restrained tasteful playing, this was one mighty reminder of the possibility that God do perhaps exist.
That tomb was empty, just like He said it would be. That's enough for me. Like a friend of mine once said, "If you can find someone who can predict his own death *and* resurrection, *and* pull it off, I'd go with him." :D :D :D
Evangelization and ambient music, maybe I should change my tactics with my students.
You are the Frank E Peretti of guitar. God does in fact approve.
Awesome job. Love it!
Given this beautiful, rough, ambient music, and relaxed performance, and Chords of Orion's music in general, which celebrates the beauty and joy of life, i come to the same conclusion as you Bill: God approves.
What i find remarkable is the short list of things that you celebrate in your music. The presentation and intention is the same as something i published in my scrapbook, a snippet of which here:
"Things that are beautiful, and that are wonderous, and that are miracles of our planet:
... list ...
Why?
Above all, it revitalizes the joy and wonder of being alive on planet Earth.
Always.
Even if you were to be the last human to survive,
Even when you're conditioned never to forgive yourself,
Even when you, as a living human, are in the deepest abyss,
Yes, even when you desperately need your Shepherd to bring you home."
Sounds great Bill! Writing music for the Lord, for His glory, fulfills us, and we hope in return, embraces Him ❤
He most assuredly does.
Isaiah 38:20
*The LORD was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.*
Isaiah 38:20
2:13
Hello...beautiful sounds...what guitar are you playing? It works beautifully with the e-bow and the 'space'.
He is in every crevice of your soundscape. Masterfully done my friend.
Hi Bill hope your having a great day!! I was wondering how to you get on bandcamp to sell your music. Maybe that’s a topic for your next video.
Beautiful!
Psalm 8 says pretty much the same thing. According to the heading David wrote it to be played on an instrument of Gath so I'm sure ambient is ok lol. It's from you to Him. That's all that matters. 😁👍
Silly question. Profound answer! ❤
Can I get your Rig of the dotted 8th delay for Headrush?
Powerful meditation very thought 💭 provoking and inspiring
Epic!!!
God approves. God cannot be defined because of its infinite potential but from what is apparent, God is original, present, and for-planning as the ubiquitous and only entity. This universe is fundamentally music. Material dancing to the one and only song. Our songs are the present echos of this perfect being.
An absolutely lovely piece, as usual - congrats Bill. One thing I'd like to ask about is the drums - which are highly unusual on Frippertronics/ambient looping stuffs. My big question is whether the drums synchronised to the loop, or are they running independently of one another? The music layers are so dense I can't actually tell - it just sounds amazing. Also, are the drums from Logic Pro or elsewhere? There isn't anything listed in your hardware list, but then there isn't a D'Angelico either...
The drums are the Logic Pro Drummer. They are not synced to the loop - I just set up the drums and then played the piece listening to the drums, but not trying to stay exactly in time. Sorry about the missing D'Angelico in the comments!
I can't imagine any version of a God or gods that wouldn't approve of bringing more beauty & expression into the world. Mine certainly do. :)
This is awesome 🙏🏼
There are 4 things that last faith, hope, love and music.
and music is the BEST! (Frank Zappa)
great
Very nice intro Bill.
Another fantastic track -- I see you've recovered from your procedure. Thanks Bill - this is great. Are those the Logic Pro drums?
Please would you tell me what you used for the drums? Thanks.
Sure - I used the Logic Pro Drummer instrument.
Definitely He does. Also, I wish you’d review the Ed O’Brien Sustainer Stratocaster. I bought one and really like it. I think the sustainer pickup in it is like the EBow you’re using here.
I'd love to borrow one to try it out, but can't quite get myself there to buy one. I think it is very different from an EBow. Not better or worse - just different.
@@chordsoforion I think with you being so comfortable with EBow it might be redundant but I like my EOB. Great video. God speaks through sure. the vibrations, for
Fabulous. Bill I thought you were releasing a new album? 🤔
yes. there will be an announcement next week!
Like this. ✌🏻🎸🌎🙏🏻
AMBIENT GUITAR/SOUNDSCAPE IT'S THE SONG THAT STARS SANG IN THE CREATION!
Nice drum track.
thanks!
And God saw it was good
.... when I saw your video it had 666 views....glad I've changed it
whew! :)
Dancing angels
Yes he does, yes he definitely does
A beautiful piece ... I loved the ending, decaying layers. I'm an athiest so I'm in no position to advise on 'God's' opinions. He (she) doesn't seem to say much in any case...
I'm sitting beside God so I appove too 😜I Love the style!
It depends on which God you ask. ✌️🎸
Absolutely! If it exists in this world, then God must approve of it.
Evil exists in the world tho 🤔
@@brandoncostner7437 exactly
Joe Biden?
War? Sexual interference of children by priests? I think not.
@@brandoncostner7437 Yes, and God allows it to exist, within given boundaries.
Next can you do Leprechauns?
Yes. God approves of music that is played unto God. Sure there are music styles that are "ugly", but no one would play "ugly" music unto God.
Which God are you referring to? there have been claims of perhaps a thousand we know of throughout history. I appreciate your music as always
Simple. The one that created the universe.
As the one who created it...why would he not.
Depends on the heart of that person. Does he know God. Is he in right standing with God.
This question is an individual one, as for mywself I am Buddhist and "God" does not play a role in how I react to stimulus of ambient music as we are all part of the music in our own way and how we accept it....................
I can respect that for sure.
Many times, the Prophets asked for music to get in “the flow” of God’s Spirit and receive a specific Word from the Throne of Heaven…
on the 7th day, god created electric guitar
ok. maybe the 8th, but it was early on! :-)
But Bill, I thought you were God...
Psalms 95:1-2
But that’s just one religion
Being that your reality is made up of tiny vibrating particles I’d say most definitely yes.
i love your music so i think she does also!
Maybe He made this reality just so you'd make ambient guitar about it
There is no "god" - there is Frippertronics.
There are many god's which one do you think gives a damn.
It’s all good - god doesn’t exist - play what you like bro
Beautiful intro - very spacey indeed - I certainly approve 😂
It's all good, God does exist. Play what you like bro
I hope so and also Randy Rhoads and Jimmy Page styles, too.
These comments lol
I don't understand why god - whoever he is......has to be part of music. But I enjoy your channel and get inspiration. But thats just an opinion. I'm spiritual in another way. There is a space for everybody :-)
everybody knows that God hates all instruments unless you can play the secret chord 😤😤
THERE ARE NO GODS TO OFFEND , ONLY PEOPLE :)
You believe in Jesus ?
Moot point as god doesn't exist 🤷♂
God does exist. Checkmate, atheist.
I wish someone would make atheist music but we don’t push it on anyone. Big mistake. Eno is an atheist. There would have been no frippertronics without him. Sounds great though!
If you think Eno isn't "pushing" his worldview on anyone, you are mistaken. That being said, he is a massively awesome artist and has created a genius body of work that I love.
@@chordsoforion The title makes an assumption that makes some of us cringe.
And the problem is?
@@nicknickson3650 My life has meaning. You are ignorant.
@@chordsoforion We all know in this country “God” is code talk for Jesus. Say what you really mean. I will never forget the first day of Guitar Circle, Robert Fripp asked us “Do any of you have Swedish ancestors?” Two people raised their hands. Then he said “Your people destroyed our church.” This was met with utter silence. Nobody had the balls to ask him why he said that. I just figured he must be a jerk.
Maybe he could spend less time worrying about ambient guitar and more time worrying about all those children dying from cancer.
The real question is: what are YOU doing about the cancerous children you are concerned for?
@@chordsoforion you believe in a benevolent “God” that has the power of creation. That’s your prerogative. But rather than question why he creates children just to have them die from cancer you’d rather turn the question back on some rando TH-cam commenter than ask yourself anything that would challenge your belief system. Got it.
.
First of all, you are not "rando". You are a person of immense value that God has created in his image and worthy of respect and love. You being concerned for children dying of cancer seems to be canard in my view (unless you are taking action to improve their lot). The core of what you are asking is "God - why did you create me just to die?". Another related question is: "if there a god, then why does he/she/it allow evil?". These are great questions that have been discussed over the centuries. Here's an answer from a pastor named Tim Keller: th-cam.com/video/dkn5lfutSrY/w-d-xo.html
@@arfcorps God gave us free will. God never said "your life will be perfect and nothing bad will ever happen." On the contrary, God warned us there will be hardship in our lives. Also there is a lot of research being done that is finding that WE are responsible for cancer, it's not a natural phenomena. Chemicals in our water, in our food, in drugs. If God simply made our lives perfect then we have no free will anymore. God wants faithful human beings who take up their cross, not mindless zombies who have no choice.
You believe in an all powerful God who allows his creations to suffer as some kind of test? What a monstrous God that must be. You can keep him.
You really think there is a magic judge! Cmon
God has nothing to do with magic, so no.
@@chordsoforion if you don't believe...he will torture you in the hell he created just for his children. What a terrible guy
@@chordsoforion has everything to do with magic and magnetism. the great attractor, maybe 'God has nothing to do with judgement, so...?' created ALL, judges none
@@bouzoukiman5000 May God soften your heart, have a blessed evening.
@@nicknickson3650 - You Too-🙏
Satan does
Satan only listens to Polyphia and Nickelback.
@Nick Nickson He only listens to that what elevates him. He cannot stand true adoration and praise to God.
Beautiful
