Really took my time with this song/video for the past few days. Even as an "experienced player", there are a lot of rhythmic things in this song that took a bit of time to learn (and still things I need to work on), but you made it super easy to digest and go through. Thanks Dan! Excited to see future videos of yours, just subscribed. I saw two Khruangbin shows in NYC last month and they were amazing.
You're welcome! I'm glad you found it easy to understand and work through. And thanks for subscribing. Yeah anyone who describes this tune as being remotely 'easy' is deluded haha! Yes, the component parts aren't super complicated, but executing it all fluently is a different level. Plus, in this tutorial I didn't even begin to talk about the details of his dynamics. That just adds another layer of complexity that I didn't think would work for this lesson, especially with this video being 45 minutes long as it is! That's good to hear. I'm seeing 2 shows in Manchester in about a month - can't wait!
Oh my, I can't play it yet, but after lackadaisically playing through every section to the very end, I can confidently say that this will requires a lot of deep work to learn and patience to master. How much more scoring and teaching it! Much kudos.
It's one of those tunes that seems like it could be played fairly easily, until you realise how everything he's doing is so nuanced and detailed. Good luck on your journey to May Ninth perfection!
I am a student of Dan, and I cant praise him enough. He has loads of patience whilst being very supportive. If you are looking for a guitar tutor, give him a call.
Newbie here. I've wanted to play this for a long time, so it's my first song practicing on the new EJ strat. Your tutorial is brilliant. Thank you for the effort. As Khruangbin gets more popular this will get a lot of views. Subscribed.
Thank you, I hope you're enjoying the new strat! Absolutely. I'm getting a fair few requests for more Khruangbin tutorials so I'm sure I'll do more. If there's any in particular you'd like to see, let me know.
@@danharemusic That is very kind of you. One of these might be good for a tutorial since they have clear guitar parts that sound good by themselves, and that I would be happy to try and recreate: [1] 'The Number 4'. Up to 2:49, then it's masterclass. [2] 'Three From Two'. A bit kitschy but nice. Not sure though if the many hammers ons pull offs are tutorial material. [3] 'A Love International' For 2 and 3 the easier parts of the songs would already be an achievement for me.
@danharemusic Mark plays lots of cool off beat accents on this tune. I love his hammer on 1 2 3 pull off in the intro E section. When I learned the chords and then the notes to this when it came out, the timing was the challenge. Also, the four note riffs he plays after his ascending line in the A position has tricky timing. Good video here. There is a live video of this song, but the lighting makes it difficult to Mark's hands.
Hello Dan, Great tutorial. Mark plays a "ghost" note just after the C#major chord in the first verse. Instead of b2 b2 g4 g2 g1 d4...he actually hits..d2 b2 g4 g2 g1 d4. Mark does this in the first and second verse, then just hits the b2 g4 g2 g1 d4 the rest of the song I noticed this while listening to the song in my car ( boston Accoustic stereo) . I hope this is an good addition to you excellent interpretation of the song. ✌️ GT
@@danharemusic yeah. Listening to it I agree. I still kinda think it’s open B he’s picking though, just from what I’ve seen him do with his hands. Anyway, great lesson. Thanks for posting. I learned about finger style alternate picking with the thumb and index thanks to your original video! 🫵👑
