Sithu Aye thank you so much for the writing advice I’ve had doubts about my own writing recently but your advice is definitely helping me. Thank you 🙏🏼
Holy! I listened to Outside The Universe back when it came out, and had no idea you ever released anything else... so glad to see you're still around and have more music for me to listen to!
Solid writing advice dude. I've been really struggling with self doubt lately (I often sit down to try and come up with stuff, write maybe one or two riffs that I genuinely like, record them, and then wind up thinking "man this sucks" and just scrapping it) and the whole "use your doubt as criticism rather than seeing it as an obstacle to overcome" really struck a chord with me.
Oh, now I learn about the Patron thing. I randomly clicked on Set Course for Andromeda after listening to Satriani, Nick Johnston, etc... WOW! I finally found the modern prog metal sound for me! Promptly went to Bandcamp and bought everything you had. Keep writing good stuff.. you are an amazing guitar player, song writer, and your "inside" chord work just blows my mind! My old fingers just can't make those changes at those speeds, but I've sure learned a lot of new chord voicings after listening to your music. Thanks...
Thanks for the tour! I've got to say.. Senpai EP 2: The Noticing is one of the most magical, freaking glorious works of enjoyable musical art that has ever danced into my ears. Seriously Thanks so much for putting this out into the world, can't wait to hear more! I vote more Anime inspired albums/Ep's!
Good thing you cleared out all the unmentionables from that drawer before recording lol. Can you do a video for how you edit/ mix drums? Or have you already gone over this before?? Thanks!
An anime tribute album where you cover all your favorites, and if I could throw a request in it, I'd love to hear your rendition of "Again" by Yui from FMA. Seriously though, that would be awesome. Part of the reason I love you're music over so many others is that positive upbeat vibe your albums put off, and those quirky super unique licks you have.
Hey Sithu, do you plan on doing a run down of your live setup? It would be interesting and helpful to see how you go about setting up your rig for automated patch changes.
Hahaha all that transitions slides. Chrono Trigger Secret of the Forest theme much??? or Legend of Zelda themes??? Lovin' it man. PINGGG PUH PUH PANGGG... XD
talking about Tours, are you planning on doing a European Tour (specifically in Switzerland)? :P I'm a huge fan and seeing Plini, Arch Echo and Mestis tomorrow near Basel (CH) so looking forward to it.
Great video here is a question for a next video: How did you get into drawing anime and writing lore, and what tools, processes and methods do you use to complete your visual aspect? Also Bonus Question: What is your favourite animation Japanese, American or otherwise (or even anime inspired live action)? Laputa, Castle in the Sky is mine
Hi Sithu I just went to axe-change i realized that the patches over there are still the ones from 2016. Do you plan on uploading the newer ones? Thanks! ^_^
Sithu, having played guitar for 20 years, the pianos on senpai EP really inspired me to learn the instrument. How did it feel transitioning from guitar to piano? How did you learn how to play epic final fantasty esque piano pieces and how does one go about learning it? I'm really keen to learn your senpai parts as my first songs.
Sithu, could you please let me know what set of single coil pickups are in your Strat? I must know this info please. Literally a decade later and that tone out of that strat into Lepou is amongst my all time favorites, ever. Please advise :)
They're the pickups that came with the guitar, Fender Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups. Since the guitar is 17 years old at this point I have no idea if you can get your hands on them but hopefully the info helps nonetheless!
@@SithuAye Thanks for letting me know king. Good to know. I can't believe they stopped producing these, they sound like nothing else. They sound like what halloumi cheese sounds like grinding against your teeth .. so squelchy on the pick attack
I'll only upload covers if I get to do my on take on them, like my Reimagined Cover. Otherwise, I want to focus my channel on my own music, as well as more educational content
Hey Sithu! As you play Mayones I thought you have Bare knuckle p.ups, why do you prefer Seymour Duncan's? Thanks for your answer I really want to know about, thanks
What are you using for live patch changes if you don't mind me asking? I've been trying to put a rig together with quick changes in mind. Good call with studio one by the way
I'm sending midi to my Axe-FX II via USB. In your DAW, you can program the midi changes, as well as tempo information to be sent. I can't remember the exact midi configuration but it's not very difficult and it's something you can look up pretty easily.
