    Hey guys, I’m Rabea. I'm the lead guitarist in Toska, Frog Leap & Dorje where I write music, make songs and have a great time with my mates. I also have my own line of guitars with Chapman Guitars, and I’ve designed numerous products with some really cool companies, such as the Victory Amps VX Kraken. Anyway, i hope you enjoy my videos, thank you for watching!

    These are three amazingly talented musicians with great musical taste. You don’t need a vocalist to express. The sound, arrangement, melody, rhythm and heart makes Toska a really special band for me.

    This is amazing, so tight and I love this mix. Kinda prefer it over the LP but hey that’s cause the bass is super loud

    • @fenderbender9907
      @fenderbender9907 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I don't think it's that loud it's just that all the music was composed with three instruments in mind so the guitar and bass leave space for each other, making them more prominent

    • @richardharrold9736
      @richardharrold9736 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @terrazero2972

    Still wondering, how you can have that thick guitar sound and still make bass perfectly audible. (and Davr is finger player on top of that).

  • @nonameputs
    @nonameputs 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fucking well done boys. I hope one day you can tour the US. I have a couple questions about the backing tracks: First of all how many are there other than the strings and vocals? Your guitar rig has such a huge sound sometimes it's hard to tell if there's extra tracks in the background. And I say that as a compliment BTW. I'm very curious just how different your two amps sound. Also, who is triggering the tracks? I saw the MacBook sitting next to Ben, is he starting and stopping them? Last question... Did Dave figure out a way to turn on and off the bass synth pedal or does he just leave it on through the whole section?
    You guys are incredible and I hope that one day I get the opportunity to see you live. Thank you for all the hard work.
