Edit: Now I consider it incomplete work without the lead
Submitted the final video.
Just noticed that I look quite bored because I've heard this song for 100 times...
____________________________________________________________________________________
Edit: Smoothened ending break transition.
hmm I'm still not satisfied with the build up to the ending riff.

This version is much better than the firstone. Has a solid structure now and less annoying wild noise.
Like the stomping energy here. John-Lee-Hooker-like.
What you could improve is the end. It seemed to be a bit "disorientated", "unorganised", "incoherent".
When you might give the ending a logical sense, this track is "round".

Thanks, I showed this to my brother a few hours ago and he mentioned about the ending and the pitch and the transition to the second verse. I uploaded a new one and changed the ending a little and added a connecter before the second verses .
Let me know if it works, thanks again

It is rough it is raw it is tight it is right .... except for that break at 1:55 it kind of goes a walkies ... when it was so thumping and stomping
Good stuff though, like a led zep jam in the bar on Sunday
Pity your not confident enough to sing and vocally stomp along

what do you mean by "goes a walkies" Messy? Maybe I should just keep the same rhythm as I change the chords and break.
Man I'd really love to sing too but I'm not good enough.

It's finally done, just before the dateline.

So how long have you been playing for?
You have worked at an amazing technique and your doing it well, but the break, that went walkies before now came out right in the flow of the song but you play your chords wrong ... looks like you could practice your basics
Best of luck with R.AGE
btw if you click the youtube button far right of the text box it will print the youtube tags in the text box. Put the video code only in between the tags and your video will show op on the page. ; )

Thanks, getting the pitch right for slide is bloody difficult. My nails have been grinded by the strings that it looks really bad now. The "palm kick" technique was from a Japanese guy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpLVL7X4gOE
and the triplet strokes were from playing rumba flamenca.
Did you mean that the chord was too dissonant? the one that's just before the pause that's half step below the root? I like that sound
though it's probabaly due to the arabic/turkish/Goran Bregovic etc stuff I listen to.Edit: I've been playing for almost 8 years now. But I've just picked up slide (as you'd have noticed). I can't play anything else... concrete with it haha.

Re YOUTUBE Link - This guy plays softer allowing to create more dynamics - interesting techique also - So I would in future work on playing softer, or work on dynamics, know how loud or soft you are playing. No pain no gain - keep working at it.

I was trying to fix the pitching too but now it feels a little fast and not clean and I'm still not satisfied with it after almost 3 hours of trying... this is really hard haha. I'm quite stressed because I want to win it so badly but I have some tests on friday too and the dateline is so close aaaaahhhhh

Rearranged the song to a more solid structure and focused on the slide pitching and dynamics.
I scrapped the vocals because my pronunciation was too Chinese along with other tone problems according to a friend.
Let me know what you think,
Thanks

I know I need to do that but I tried playing softer for some time too but as I was listneing to the recording, I felt that the "badass-ness" is very much lost, just like how that japanese guy's song feels more light and even poppy than heavy - white stripes/ led zeppelinesque, which was what I was going for, kinda like acoustic distortion hahaha
Hmm after playing around with it just now I've found places where I could play more softly and I feel that I'm playing a lot better now that I'm relaxed and not recording haha

oh ya and to add on to the technique I learnt the palm kick from that japanese guy but really started applying it when I was trying to play the main riff alone (I heard orion from them, didn't listen to metallica)
it's all about being alone and not knowing the existence of DAWs back then haha

Yes tension is a killer when you perform - As you had to get this done quickly, I'm sure that would have created some tension. Another tip before you start your performance is to take a few deep breaths and to feel yourself being relaxed - if you do it every time, it will become second nature over a period of time. Then of course you need to practise every day, around half an hour day keeps you playing with ease, you'll know what works for you.
