Time Level 5
Pseudo 3:4
I totally made this up
Psudeo 3:4 is basically something that sounds a bit like 3:4 but still fits a 4:4 pattern. It can be used to create an awesome feel to riffs. Go to lesson.
3:4 over 4:4
This one is not fake
This is much harder than the psudeo 3:4 and will totally confuse you. Stick with it and you will find some amazing new ways to layer riffs and instruments. Go to lesson.
Time signature 5:4
1,2,3,1,2
5:4 has a very unique feel and can be tricky at first. Once mastered it leads to some really interesting rythyms and melodies. Split your count into 3 beats then 2. Go to lesson.
Building Patterns
Digital pattern fun
Layering patterns is some of the most satisfying work on a guitar… Once you nail it. Building a pattern can be for that amazing lead break or a part of a hook. Go to lesson.
Resolving to the 5th
Finish off in style
Learning all those arpeggios actually had a point! Lets find our 5ths and use them to finsh off our riffs. Pair with a cool baseline for dramatic effect. Go to lesson.
Resolving to the 3rd
leave the tension hanging
The third is a little tricker than the 5th as it switches between major and minor chords on the fly. Try mixing between modes to nail it. Go to lesson.
Long rests
leave the listener hanging
Using a long rest is about adding some space that the listner starts to fill in with their mind. Then you kick back in which is super satisfying. Go to lesson.
