Official guitar playthrough of 'Light Pollution' by The Ocean guitarist Marco Gennaro.
"I'm playing all the guitar parts of the song as they appear on the record and in disregard of who' s playing what live. The song is based on a majority of minor chords, which are Em Cm Am Fm, and it alternates a bunch of heavy riffs. The first lead part is based on an E minor scale, while the third and final solo it contains some materials from the E melodic minor scale as well. The second lead section, characterised by an octaver and reverb sound, is an arpeggio sequence that follows the chord progression, expanding each of them by adding various chords extensions such as the 9th and the 7th."
Guitar: Duesenberg Paloma Black
Quad Cortex
Polytune Mini
Digitech Whammy 5
Vox VX V847A Wah Pedal
Fulltone OCD overdrive pedal version 1.4
Camera: Jovi Zhang
