Supposedly faster guitar player (Some Brazilian who plays 38 notes per second)

I didn't really find this video overly impressive...He could play the exact same thing not playing like a piano but rather under the next like most people play... so its not like hes utilized this to create something that couldn't be created otherwise...Shit like this is fun to watch but unless you're creating something that couldn't otherwise be accomplished I don't really find it innovative in the sense of breaking new musical grounds.

I can do blast beats on my guitar, anyone wanna see?:lol:
 
+1

what are you gonna do with that fast picking anyway? sounds like wet fanny to me... even if it was put in with the most amazing riff ever, I'd still not listen to it.
 
either way... my view on this even if it wasn't the intended video are still the same... either way... its all really fun to watch and has a wow factor... but I am just getting to the point that I really didn't care what any of these ppl who dropped outta pre school to play guitar can do unless they can incorporate it tastefully into their music...
 
alright... I have seen that 38bps video before and its ridiculous and I wish I could do it... but again I don't care that he can unless hes actually gonna use it any further then a parlor trick.
 
You guys don't get it :lol:
The sad part is that video is a fake....just see how artificial the sweep picking part is!
He just accelerated the video using premiere or something
 
What would be the point of playing that many notes per second? I find it amusing to see shredders who waste years of their life perfecting ridiculous speed technique that isn't appicable to anything without sounding like garbage and they'll never sell records because no one wants to listen to their masturbation.

I'm assuming Yngwie Malmsteen makes quite a bit more money then you and has sold more albums in his career then you will aswell... Since of course he obviously wasted all these years of his life. That is of course if you consider it a waste to be doing what you love for a living and in turn this affords you the ability to support yourself and make large amounts of ppl happy.

...Considering nobody wants to hear it?

I think a bigger waste of time is the time you didn't take to pursue your passions.

... money shouldn't have anything to do with your musical pursuits... but if your passionate and genuine about your craft and truly want to dedicate your life to offering ppl whatever escape or pleasure music gives them, I think its great that you get paid to do so.

Hey Scalpel, since you leave in Brazil, can you beat up that guy for me?
