Feels like I'm spamming with my threads here on IG, sorry people :)

There's another contest going on, so I decided to give it a try

Here's the info about the contest:

And this will, most probably, be my entry:

How does it sound? Any good? Lousy? Awful? Brilliant? :D

Hi Pekki

Nice thread dude!

I was thinking about posting a similar topic to inform people of the competition.
I'm considering making my YouTube debut for this. I'm not competing for the win, but there are some great judges such as our own Tom Quayle, and Chris Feener. I'd be more than satisfied knowing they listened to my entry.

I think the backing track that they've put together is really cool, the chord progression is basic and not too challenging, but I really dig the beat and the funky Bassline.

Just listened to your entry as i was typing this, sounds great dude!
best of luck.

Btw Rick.. if you're reading, you should totally enter this man!

Hey Pekki! :)

Well done bro! Thanks for letting everyone know about the contest! This sounds like a straight-forward (like Ben alluded to!) Aeolian/Natural-Minor progression. I've always thought that these types of progressions make for excellent "shred" opportunities, but also great accompaniment for "melodies" too! ;)

Best of luck to all who enter, and don't sell yourself short Ben. You have some "mad-skills!" :cool:

Hello,

I have now high-jacked this thread! :D

So I came up with a solo for this contest and recorded it.

Thought it would be a good idea to keep the contest video postings in this thread, ya?


Thanks,
Rohan
