I bought it, plugged it in and started messing with it, and it was right when I rediscovered the harmonic minor scale. “I texted Ibanez and asked them what it was, and they said it was a failed project from 1998. The way the song happened was, we were in Cologne, and I found this nylon-string, S-shaped Ibanez guitar. Some people have made comparisons of this song to Al Di Meola and Paco de Lucia, but I’ve never listened to them. Do you listen to much flamenco or bossa nova music? On that song, you guys use nylon-string guitars for the first time. There is a one minute mention of flamenco but that’s all we need, right?Īnd here they are interviewed, where we see the depth of their engagement with the art of flamenco: The interviewer is Justin Hawkins of The Darkness. There are several bands that came up with them with tattooed little freaks who play more interesting music than Polyphia. They are my friends kids, we’ve been supporting them and doing roadie work for them since they were 11 when they started at Girls Rock Camp. A trio two girls on bass and guitar and guy on drums. There’s a band in Oakland called Gumby’s Junk, they are 26 and they are tattoo artists and book binders. Look, I’ve known about them and I’m not into it. I’m not drawn back to third and forth listenings and his personality is aloof.įYI that video is blocked in most countries, including mine. Technically on top of it, but really significant? I’ve been aware of them for some time and I don’t like it that much. You just heard of them? Stick around and see if you still have that enthusiasm in a few years. I think it is pretty cool he has had success with instrumental music in this day and age. He has good rhythm, even though he expresses it more inward than as engaging with musicians around him. At the same time you can hear the music change, animal leaders influence (math metal), and it is very sophisticated that stuff he is doing. The tattoo thing starts around 24 years old and gets crazy along the way, but he also takes on more female characteristics, so maybe something going on deep down, not pretentious attitude. He (is he identifying as “he”?) seems to be a very serious artist since a young kid. I don’t know man, I did not know about them at all till lately. □ I’d like to phone up Peter Frampton and go see him. Rick interviews people who wouldn’t ordinarily talk at length, you wish you were him. In Japan there’s this annoying thing called ‘Kawaii Culture’ it’s about getting a Hello Kitty tattoo on your dick. The guitarist is a stick up cosplay weenie. I hope he does something on Mclaughlin at some point, but I already know it will be the same old “what was it like to play with Miles, and how did Mahavishnu come about” typical story. Al Di, is the closest he has come to “flamenco” subjects, which is ok actually, people shouldn’t talk about subjects they don’t understand much about. But I enjoy his other content and music theory teaching is pretty good IMO. I hope the kids get back into music minus Dad’s input, ie, on their own, in the future. I am quite glad he has dropped that subject and admitted his kids don’t care about music anymore, only play video games. The thing that I first heard about was the thing with his kids ear training, and it was like nails on a chalkboard for me, I hated seeing that going on for some reason.
