#96 - How To Write Amazing Metal Riffs!
Added 2020-07-03 12:01:00 +0000 UTCWelcome back my friends, it's time for the last topic from your wishlist for May! After that, we will finally tackle this month's most popular topics :)
After all the shredding, it's about time to work on another riff writing lesson. I chose a very simple cadence and show you some cool concepts and details you can add to make it more interesting! Aside from practicing this section, I'd love to see and hear you working with these ideas for your own material - make sure to send over some footage or audio recordings!
I hope you have an amazing weekend (and some time to practice), see you next week :)

2020-08-17 04:30:31 +0000 UTCDefinitely, some different styles (black, prog, melodic, fusion), some different time signatures, different rhythms of the basic chord progression. That would make an awesome series. Ofc easy for me to write :D
2020-08-16 18:48:06 +0000 UTCWhat tuning is this played in?

Adding G on the bottom (assuming you mean on the 10th fret of the A string) also works! :) G is the minor third here and it is already featured on the 8th fret of the B string but you can also add it twice! But there is no seventh in this chord, it's the perfect fifth, 9th and minor third! Hope that helps, happy to hear that you are working on your own alterations of the chords, that's awesome!
