English Guitarist Reacts to Ichika Nito - Awakening 

At last, someone pointed out how melody is so important. How many times do we hear musical pieces of incredible technique only to not be able to remember virtually any of them when they're finished.

it's not only his skill technique but also the fresh things he brought.

you seem very authentic and comfortable in front of a camera. Great video!

FLOWERS is the Ichika Nito song that I listen to the most. It’s really good

I agree with you in 4:30 that most of the guitarist care only to show their speed and technique without making a flowing melody

Personally, I also love his other song Arpeggio, it has such a relaxing vibe I could literally listen to it for hours on end without tiring - which I already did more than once

This was a great reaction

what kind of schecter is tht? i never seen one with single coils! i thought it was a strat at first

Melody. truer words couldn't be said. 2 things on that- take a lot of super talented guitar players that know theory and all that= their music sucks. Satriani, etc- their music isn't very good regardless of how technical it was. Jazz- really high-level jazz only appeals to musicians who play Jazz- sounds like shit to the average listener. This is why the French= Kill Jazz. Their music, though still Jazz= Sounds Good. French Jazz is some of my fav, go listen to a Monk album and tell me what's good about it, besides it being complex?

nah man, he cant play shit live.., even an grade schooler prom performance are more interesting than watching ichika nito live..dude doesnt even try atleast play 1 songs atleast 1 of his original composition like what he does in his videos even he got backing track but his guitar tone sounds unmatch and wtf man.. he should have played guitar dj rather than being like this.. imo only polyphia tim henson is the real banger who shows that he can perform his shit with band and backing tracks.. but ichika.. im dissapointed tbh..nobody asked him to play fast bpm music..he cant even nailed a moderate one too. sounds like amature covering ichika nito but ironically it was himself.
