Hungarian Dance No. 5 [Viola Rock / Metal] - Johannes Brahms | Distorted Devotion Distorted Devotion 2022-05-18 | Hungarian Dance No.5 by Johannes Brahms for viola and heavy rock guitars. A lot of classical composers have made some pretty awesome metal tracks, #Brahms being no exception. His fifth Hungarian Dance works really well as a #rock or #metal #cover with some #distortion, heavy drums and the #viola taking the lead. Working on this track I was surprised how dissonant and heavy this tune actually is. It sounds so festive on the surface, but is actually really #dark when you look into the chord progressions and how the notes fit. It isn't unusual for classical composers from the romantic era like Beethoven, Chopin, Paganini (!), Rachmaninoff or Grieg to write dark classical music works that are excellent rock tracks, but it doesn't happen often the darkness of a theme is hidden so well in the arrangement and orchestration chosen for the piece. Hope you like my neoclassical rock / metal edition of this beautiful track!▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Gear used:* Handmade Viola & Violin* Ibanez JEM7 Prestige* Ibanez Gio GSR105EX 5-String Bass Guitar Black* Orange Dark Terror Head* Randall 4x4 Cabinet* AKG 420 Condensor Microphone* SM57 Dynamic Microphone* Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Neoclassical Guitar Etude #3 - String Skipping Arpeggios (With Tab & Backing Track!) Distorted Devotion 2022-07-15 | #Neoclassical guitar etude focusing on playing arpeggios skipping strings. Both in 16th notes and triplets, to practice changing between the two as well With the guitar tab in the bottom. Played on my Fender Stratocaster model through a Dark Terror amp by Orange (which sound amazing for the price and ease of transport!). Difficulty is moderate, and depends on how quickly you play this. The 'bottleneck' in this piece will be different for everyone, but try to practice each part as quickly as possible.Hoping to have resolved the problem of not being able to hear the guitar I got a few times in my old neoclassical guitar etude video.↼ ↼ Backing Track & Tab ⇁ ⇁I'll make those available in the next few days.#neoclassicalmetal #neoclassicalguitar #classicalmetal #metal #hardrock #neoclassicalrock #progrock #guitar #guitartutorial #guitartutor↼ ↼ Gear ⇁ ⇁▪ Cubase 8 Pro▪ Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB▪ AKG Perception 420 Condensor Microphone▪ Sennheiser MD421-II Dynamic Microphone▪ Lewitt LCT 040 MATCH stereo pair (for recording piano)▪ Zoom H8 Field Recorder (for recording piano)▪ Custom Viola▪ Custom Octave Viola (Chin Cello)▪ Custom D-hole Manouche Guitar▪ Custom Cajon▪ Ibanez Jem 77V Electric Guitar▪ Ibanez RG5328-LDK Electric Guitar▪ Ibanez GSR205-BK Bass Guitar▪ Thomann Classical Fusion 8 String Acoustic Guitar▪ Fender American Professional II Stratocaster RW 3-Color Sunburst▪ Pearl Snare drum▪ Cubase 8 Pro

Though I can never hope to play it like the master himself, I hope you'll enjoy it anyway.Always loved the Final Fantasy Series (Final Fantasy IV being my favourite, VII a close second). The soundtrack of this game is - as always - absolutely phenomenal.

Heavy Rock GUITAR BACKING TRACK with SCALES and ARPEGGIOS | 157 BPM | C Minor | Tuning: EADGBE Distorted Devotion 2022-05-05 | Backing track for guitar players in C minor with on screen scales and arpeggios for easier play-along. The scale shown on-screen is for guitars tuned in standard E tuning ( EADGBE ). The entire scale is shown with black dots and the current arpeggio is highlighted by white dots in the black dots of the scale. The numbers below show the fret numbers. Dots on the thick white line on the left represent open strings. The scales beyond position 12 are the same as shown on-screen. Fret 13 being the same note as fret 1 only an octave higher.Chord progressions used (mostly I-VI-IV-V) and progressions like these are very common within rock and metal, so it's a good idea to train not only scales, but also arpeggios within this scale for these chord progressions.This exact progression can be heard in a lot of songs by symphonic rock bands like Epica, Within Temptation and Nightwish as heavier bands like Killswitch Engage.I've only used harmonic minor in the scale during the dominant V with #3. It could be argued that you can always play the leading tone B instead of Bb but as you can also always use melodic minor with A and B instead of Ab en Bb that would complicate the scale on-screen quite a bit. For now I've only shown the #7 if it is also present in the chords played.#backingtrack #guitarbackingtrack #guitarjamtrack #guitartutorial #guitarlesson #musictheory #rockbackingtrack

Uncharted 4 Main Theme | Metal Version Distorted Devotion 2016-05-17 | A tribute to the beautiful score written by Henry Jackman for Uncharted 4: a Thief's End. Band: Ominous ChroniclesSong: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Theme (Cover)Originally composed by: Henry JackmanCountry: The Netherlands- Links - Bandcamp: ominouschronicles.bandcamp.comYoutube: youtube.com/channel/UCtJfc2MJaZtUxKvkBpC3gqwSoundcloud: soundcloud.com/ominous-chronicles- Gear -Handmade ViolaIbanez Jem 77VAmplitube 3Addictive DrumsProject Sam Orchestra EssentialsU-he Zebra2Line 6 KB37About the game (From Wikipedia):Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is an action-adventure game played from a third-person perspective. It also includes elements commonly found in platform games. The player assumes control of Nathan Drake, who is physically adept and is able to jump, sprint, climb, swim, scale narrow ledges and wall-faces to get between points, swing with a rope, use a grappling hook and perform other acrobatic actions. Drake can use various firearms such as assault rifles, pistols and grenades to kill enemies. Stealth elements are incorporated into the game, allowing the player to sneak behind enemies and kill them without being noticed.[8] The melee combat system was reworked to avoid the presence of quick time events.[9] Drake also gains the ability of controlling vehicles directly.[10]While the game is linear, environments feature multiple paths for the player to explore.[11] Maps are also significantly larger than the previous games in the franchise,[12] with the explorable area being 10 times larger than the previous games.[13] The artificial intelligence (AI) of enemies was enhanced. They are now able to respond to the player's actions more responsively, coordinate tactics, and cooperate with each other.[9] The AI of Drake's companions, including Sam and Sully, were improved and will assist Nathan in combat situations, though the player can not directly command them.[14] A dialogue tree is introduced, though it does not affect the story's progression.[15] The transition between cutscene and gameplay sequences has been described as "seamless".[16] Extra visual filters and modes, such as a zero-gravity mode, bullet time gameplay, and a cel-shaded artstyle, can be unlocked by using points players collected in the main game.[17]

28 Weeks Later... Main Theme | Symphonic Metal Style Distorted Devotion 2016-02-22 | Also known as 'In the House, In a Heartbeat' and 'Don Abandons Alica', This theme is also used in several of the other songs written for the '28' series (28 Days Later, 28 Weeks Later, and will probably appear in the currently upcoming 28 months later). This is the 28 Weeks Later Main Theme John Murphy wrote for the film with the same name. I don't think I need to explain that the score he wrote for this film is already very 'metal' in itself. Besides obviously sharing the mood the original track ends in a sort of metal climax. I just wanted to bring out the metal side of this theme a bit more by making this Metal Version of the original theme.Please don't forget to subscribe if you like this cover, as there will be more coming up soon! We haven't even begun to uncover the vast amount of modern film and gaming soundtracks that have so many metal elements in it that modern film music might as well be called a sub-genre of metal.--- Links: ---Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/ominous-chronicles
