Javier Tosin and Matt have all got to be musicians of this generation. I can not get over how individually talented each one is in their own rights and how well they mesh together...
f2bacon what cables? My eyes were glued to his hands and occasionally his face. Every time I see one of these two dudes, my brain deactivates and can only perceive whatever they’re doing
Javier is the reason I want an 8 string guitar, not to djent but to play things like this, I get instant goosebumps whenever I hear anything from Mestis
Since the first time i heard Sedosa and MediaNoche i've been obsessed. Many months later, i can hear it in my head for no particular reason, and i ended up listening to the full Eikasia album. It's been on a loop ever since. For me that's the sign of a great songwriter. Criminally underrated, i'm about to dive in on the other albums, i have a feeling i won't regret it at all
I have watched/listened to this 3 times minimum per day for weeks now. I love everything about this recording. Javier Reyes is my favorite all around guitarist right now.
The slight slide/tremolo thing that he does at 0:53 makes my brain burst in satisfaction. I don't know why, but the subtlety and sophistication that it conveys to me is out of this world, plus the fact that it makes it sound more vivid, organic, than the studio version. Javier Reyes is an amazing musician! Thank you Javier Reyes!!!
Is there anything that Tosin, Javier, or Matt touch that doesn't turn to gold? Like, damn... they continue to challenge ME as a listener to broaden my horizons, which is really something. It's one thing to "play a range of styles," but these 3 guys, whether together, solo, or part of collaborations with other musicians... I can't even really put it into words. I'm not sure there's a genre of music that I wouldn't want to hear these fellas play, because I know they would absolutely crush it.
This is so chill an relaxing and also uplifting! Javier is an exceptional musician. Admittedly I still have to check out animals as leaders extensive catalog. I hear nothing but good things!
I'll be honest this kind of stuff here is what makes me want to play extended range guitars. Dont get me wrong I love metal I always will but I love the versatility of 7 and 8 string guitars
