Support me on Patreon: www.patreon.com/ryanssynthwaveguitar I have plans for movie soundtracks, game soundtracks, and things I cannot post here. First 100 Synthwave Warriors will get a handwritten postcard from me.
They always said, the best guitar player in the world is not in some band.. is not famous in any way.. it's some guy sitting at home and just jamming out passionately
Wow, I'm speechless....Thank you so much mate! :D Edit: Just to state the obvious, I'm definitely not the best player in the world and still have much to learn on guitar. I just love making music and having fun playing the instrument. Thank you all for the kind words :D
That's a very nice thing to say and I don't want to be rude here, but I really hope you weren't trying to say this guy is the best guitar player in the world. That would be absolutely absurd and disrespectful to the people who have actually mastered this instrument. This guy is good don't get me wrong, he's much better than I am, but he's simply improvising over a pre-recorded song that someone else wrote. He's doing a great job but it's clear he has nowhere near mastered this scale let alone the entire instrument. I'm 100% sure he would admit this himself as well. He just didn't want to shut down your compliment because it was a very flattering and nice thing to say.
Good Freaking Lord....I have one word to describe this performance....P-A-S-S-I-O-N!!! That was, by far, the absolute best performance you have ever done in my opinion. So much passion, so much energy, it took your breath away as well as mine. OMG that was beyond awesome. If I could smash the like button more than once, it would be smashed every second every day for the rest of my life!
for me, this is the bonus track on the album. the ID3 tag says song: Collateral artist: The Midnight Ft. Ryan Leslie on guitar (bonus track) album: Nocturnal
Holy crap. This was ahmazing! Dude. Please don't stop playing....ever. Incredibly passionate, artistic, sexy and talented music production right there.
just watched a bunch of your videos after seeing your comment on The Midnight's video. You sir, are epic. This one and your Kallax - The Ride guitar improv are soooo good. Hell, they're all good!
Thanks so much for all the views guys! Every single one of you is incredible :) Take care Here's a taste of my other music: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hpb1O5Z1rRA.html
Ryan's Synthwave Guitar thank you, one more thing do you think someone learning to play the guitar should start with an acoustic or electric? Does it make a difference?
@@maxheedrum100 Personally I started with electric, but people say better to start with Acoustic. That said, I taught myself just watching RU-vid videos and jamming along to tracks. So I think it depends on what you prefer.
😲😲😲😲 I genuinely cannot tell you how much I love this video... I love synthwave especially the Midnight but I play the guitar and wondered what a guitar instead of a saxophone would be like. I am seriously not disappointed, that was stunning. Well done!
just finished a second ago listening to the whole album and Collateral was my favorite of the whole, thank you so much for this amaizing cover Ryan absolutely Love it.
Wow, just wow. Just listened to that while at my desk at work and I'm mildly breathless. Love Collateral and you sir played to it true passion. Amazing.
Thanks for this wonderful sound, amazing guitarist and certainly now a great favourite of mine, so beautiful to listen to. Thanks for this, absolutely fantastic!
I always picture myself being a pioneer of sorts. Travelling the universe discovering new planets and jamming to music like this with my electric gat in a space suit. Saxophone when im in a room that has oxygen. My all time favorite instruments.
This one of the best things I have ever come across and a huge impact on my style of sound. I came across this video a few months ago and since then I have been obsessed in trying to mimic this kind of guitar style. So for that, I thank you my dude. This is truly an inspiration to the way I play guitar these days.
I thought I've seen all your videos but apparently not. You always play the guitar with so much passion! I love it! The record company need you as an asset to their company.
You cover is so fine and mature! The Midnight is my favourite and your music is so good. Thanks a lot for covering this! Subscribed! I really do want them to feature you in their future albums. Good Vibes!
This was a good damn cover, with the sound of the guitar blending in quite well and almost perfect with the song. Amazing work man! Keep it up! And long live Retrowave!
Thanks dude, if im honest, my mixing wasnt the best here and I should've let the sax ring out by itself haha. Feel free to check out my latest videos. I just put up another FM-84 improv 😊 I think ive learned to blend my guitar better.
@@RyansSynthwaveGuitar I see your point though; the sax solos are indeed what make The Midnight songs stand out from the rest of Synthwave bands and artists and letting it breathe on its own or with very subtle contributions with your guitar would have been more appropriate. But I still think your guitar blended in very very well with the song early on. I still think you put in a lot of passion into your playing too, wich shows that you really love Retrowave and the whole genre which I respect. Keep it up man!
Thanks so much. It really was all improvised on the spot. I'd have to relearn what I made up in the moment haha. I might make a video on improvisation though.
I agree that it is amazing! But not sure it is better than the original! If you think it's better than the original, you know nothing about the Midnight!
