When You Master Your Instrument (Jon Gomm - Passionflower)

[Perishh]

I did a quick search but hadn't seen anyone who has posted this before. This song is truly amazing and I can't even guess how many times I've listened to it/watched it now.

At around 45 seconds onwards you will know exactly what I mean. Enjoy

Saw this for the first time last week. Only thing I'm not 100 per cent keen on is the vocals, but it could be far worse too I guess.

Mind = blown was my reaction upon seeing this.
Amazing technical ability, but doesn't feel the need to be all flash and no substance for an entire song. Love his phrasing, definitely a legit virtuoso.

fawkin awesome!!!

edit: I like the vocs surprisingly very very much, that dude is rad

how is this even humanly possible

Some of it reminded me of Via. Cool stuff.

Yeah, it would be because the song is based around a Lydian tonality, which gives it that slight Satriani/Vai feel since both those guys really love to use Lydian

This dude must not have social life to have this skills. Or he sold his soul to belzebu!lol

I was literally blown away...
So much talent, and I think his vocals fit the mood of the song perfectly; it's very relaxing.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Pretty ridiculous.
Still just a novelty though.

 

[NoSoup4you22]

So he's Steve Vai on an acoustic. Alright...

I love picking up acoustic guitars at novelty stores.

I'm digging it. Thanks for the mood boost, broski.

You can't exaggerate something that is definite... it either is, or it isn't.

This boy also plays tuning the strings on the go. He doesn´t make the beats, but that´s ok because he has a sweet permanent powerslide stance.
