  1. I'm still nowhere near. However, I have a riff based on the central guy's body shape. His floor hand, other hand and knees, roughly make the shape of how a dominant 7th triad falls on a guitar. His feet stick out. So i have a riff based on dominant 7th with a little sticky out bit. I'll have a mystical section and maybe some mystical sounding melodies. Also the contortion/twisty idea. I'm gonna twist the scales I'm using as the piece goes on. Hope I can get it done in time
  2. But which Hofner is best for metal?!
  3. I'm gonna try again this month. I have a bit of time. Gonna go with an idea of twisting something as it goes along and have some mystical elements.
  4. It's cos no one listens to the bass player! Even bass players by the looks of things on this thread!😅
  5. So the consensus of the thread is all bass players are angels and the rest of em are bastards! 😅
  6. One thing I love about Holdsworth is how fellow genius players like Vai or Van Halen say they don't understand it. It is totally unique.
  7. He'll have it low to shred more easily
  8. I used to play this in a band at college. Great Fun. Yngwie's solo in this shows just hiw unworldly Alan Holdsworth was!
  9. He plays fretless on a lot of his stuff. There is some shredding on this I think.
  10. I think the mistake i've made is there is just too much going on and too much of it. What I'll do is take some inspiration from the next picture and put it into this and enter it next month.😆
  11. Thanks but mine is literally not finished. I need to write parts for 3 sections. Edit and mix. I just don't have the time. I've enjoyed trying tho. It will be good when finished.
  12. My won't be finished by the end of tomorrow. I'm out
  13. But which Prince is the best for metal?
  14. Mines getting there. Got the track laid out. I'm probably half way there.
  15. You've just analysed all my composition work!
  16. Don't know what I'm changing yet. I just have the form.......and a riff now. It will probably take me all month if I finish at all!
  17. Literally just after typing that last post and thinking about why I couldn't get anything from it and how I compose. It came to me! So there are some blue and green bits, then a big splooge of yellow, then blue- green. So the form will be 2 sections or types of sections. Then a big completely different bit. Then back to the 2 types of sections. The time changing up the side of the graph means I'll change some things as it goes along within the sections. Don't know what. Harmony, chords not sure. I'll try and have a go.
  18. I was considering doing one last month and this but I just can't do anything with them pics. It probably says more about me than it does the choices!
  19. I prefer horribly obnoxious, aggressive tones! Or jaco tone or duffs tone or john paul Jones tone or stu hamm's tone, or Neil Murrays tone.....
  20. Can't believe their career pinnacle hasn't been mentioned.
  21. Looking back he was brilliant for me. I'd ask to learn a song and he say no. He'd have me clapping to metronome, playing octaves against bass and snares in odd times. Spelling out extended chords. Non of the stuff I wanted to, but stuff I was really grateful for years later.
  22. It was 'Another Brick in the Wall' Not by choice. I had bass lessons for a year. The teacher was a jazz fusion guitarist but could play bass. He taught it me, then basically solo'd over it whilst I kept playing it. So used me as a backing track essentially.
  23. Love it. Bonkers. Right up my street that!
  24. I might join in the next one if I can get any inspiration from the picture. Couldn't this month.
