    Hey dudes and dudettes.

    This is no original idea, but I was thinking it would be nice to once try and get a jam together here on InfiniteGuitar. I have a backing track lying around that I have in my mind, and then it could be split into say x parts and you would play your part. Nice way to practice improvisation etc.

    You probably all know the drill.

    What say you?

    I have uploaded the track I have in mind here:

    http://www.sendspace.com/file/9haae4

    And I suggest it be divided such as this:

    00:00 – 00:42 – Caelumamittendum
    00:42 – 01:22 –
    01:22 – 02:01 –
    02:01 – 03:00 –

    If this is no good idea at all, it can easily be called off šŸ™‚

    PS: I went ahead and took the first spot.

    Well, since you have the second spot, I’ll take the 3rd.

    Just leave me some room to jam over ok bro? šŸ˜‰

    Also, great job with the solo pekki. I loved those sweeps at 0:38. One little piece of advice that might help you out, as I said to Aewrik is to take little “breathers” in between your licks. I mean, your playing was great but it sounded like one long run-on sentence with you just holding notes and then going right into another riff. Sometimes the most important thing you can play is absolutely nothing. So don’t be afraid to have rests here and there within your solo.

    I think I jammed a few seconds too long – kept happening, no matter how many takes I did. Haha. Decided to kinda fade it out. Hope it’s okay! šŸ™‚

    Damn, awesome job! I loved it. While I was improvising through this, I had your take in my mind the entire time, and I was somehow trying to play too much like your take cause it was that good. After about the 20th or so try, I said “screw it” and decided to take a simpler route.

    Mine is one where since I didn’t have long, I decided to go for a “less is more” approach. Also, pekki, I took a little influence from your part with the harmonies and decided to do one myself. Hopefully it works.

    Hey, it’s no problem. Kinda had me going “Well, ok. I have a short amount of time to play. Trying to play alot of fast licks really won’t work in this case, cause there isn’t really any time to have them make any impact, so I’ll kinda simplify it but try to make each lick have meaning.” So I really should be thanking you for going so long. :p

    Obviously, at times it didn’t really work, but after 30 or so tries, this was really the one I was happy with. Glad you liked it.

    hell yeah!

    both of you are great, completly different approaches, but both worked excellent!
    on caels it’s really fast, but in my opinion, never out of the time
    robert, I can sense some amazing feeling here, beautiful playing,
    harmony parts worked really well

    glad I could jam with you two like this!

    Ok guys. Time to keep this train rollin! And Gollum, this is your opportunity to get off your butt and record something! šŸ˜‰

    I have a track here for you guys to jam over. It’s a little different than what some of you have jammed over up till now. The track is called “A Dorian” so that should kinda give you an idea of what to use.

    I won’t be jamming on this one this time, so this is for everyone else who wants a shot.

    Well, I’ll see what I can do. Not sure when I’ll get the chance to record, and every time I do it’s always such a hassle to get everything setup. Maybe I’ll give amplitube a try this go around and see if that simplifies things at all.

    If I don’t get something recorded tonight I won’t get another chance until thursday.

    Oh it’s cool. I was just yankin’ your chain with that. :p
    If you can record something though, that’d be great.

    you know I can record, but I always take the spot on these jams:D
    maybe someone else would like to play, I’m too selfish:)

    if nobody’s interested I’ll kick in

    I’ve heard that track somewhere else, but I can’t remember where. On another site obviously.
