Hey Fredy, maybe to tell more about what type of music you want to play and if you are a technical guy who likes to play with effects or more a puristic guy : one guitar one sound.

Hey guys, here's now the newsletter of the month October 2025. There has a lot of background work been going on this month. The works have started in the beginning of the year, got into an intense phase back in June - Juli 2025 and now slowly the system is unfolding what in fact has been done. The main goal was to make this plattform here the central hub of all works, websites and sociale media profiles and to combine forces all to this central hub. This strategy is called Hub & Spoke and normaly is only done by huge companies like Apple, BBC, Google ... but with my knowledge of strategic planing and operation in professional online plattforms and formats I was able to implement this one with my own system and now the work is finished and any future creative and educational work can now be found on this plattform here. This shall drive more traffic to this plattform and hopefully we all are able to create a cool and engaged community of music and guitar lovers. My work from my side is done - now if you want to be an active member of the community. There are many possibilities where you can bring in your voice and participate. If you want to read more about the strategy which has been done in detail you find it here - it's the current most advanced strategy in internet and network strategies available : And now lets move on the the HPCrazy Guitar Academy News I have started a bundle of new courses this month. The probably most important one for all players of all level is the basic rhythm guitar training which I strongly recommend for players of all levels who never done this before. There is also a new add to the Basic Bossanova Guitar Course. If you are a fan of Bossa Nova I strongly recommend this course : Fredy - a new member of this community was asking which would be the best steps for a beginner to get to the level where you can start with easy or intermediate level tutorials - Check out his request here : I recommened the Guitar Beginners Section and there I have added a new tutorial where you can view the first steps you need to do when it comes to the technique of your picking hand.

Here's the first tutorial : For the fans of Smooth Jazz I have started a new course for all those players how passed the Basic Smooth Jazz Course and want to get into the intermediate range of Smooth Jazz.

Rhythm Guitar Training Course The guitar is in fact in most parts a rhythm instrument so if you want to want to become a solid guitar player I strongly recommend that you train your rhythm abilities and that you also learn to write and read rhythm notation. This is for all levels who have never done this type of training before. If you are already familiar with some basics and want to proceed on your own pace you might want to check out the " Rhythm Studies " and pay close attention to the instructions to get the maximum benefit out of those studies. If you never have done a specific rhythm guitar training whatever your playing level is - then I strongly recommend to work out this course here step by step.

Here we are starting the journey from a basic to an intermediate smooth jazz guitar player and the very first task is that you start to change your system of thinking on the guitar, since most of the guitar players come from the pentatonics.

Ein Piano Stück, welches für eine etwas düstere Szene in einem Horror Film komponiert wurde. In diesem Stück war die Vorgabe, dass sich ein einziges musikalisches Motiv durch das Stück durchziehen würde und ein Stimmung erzeugt werden sollte, welche den Zuschauer in den Bann ziehen sollte. Ich habe mich in der Komposition für ein Motiv und eine Akkordstruktur rund um C melodisch Moll entschieden um diesen mystischen " horror " Effekt zu erzielen. Das immer gleiche Motiv ist der rote Faden durch das Stück und die wechselden dissonnaten Basstöne erzeugen die Spannung, welche in diesem Genre angemessen ist. Das Stück heisst " Death Dane " und ist hier zu hören : Piano Filmmusik - Film Musik Klavier WerkeProfessionelle Piano Filmmusik mit Orchester oder Solo Piano für Filme und Events. Jetzt Pianisten für Ihre Projekte buchen!A piano piece composed for a somewhat dark scene in a horror film. The requirement for this piece was that a single musical motif would run through the entire piece and create a mood that would captivate the audience. In the composition, I chose a motif and chord structure based on C melodic minor to achieve this mystical “horror” effect. The recurring motif is the common thread throughout the piece, and the changing dissonant bass notes create the tension appropriate for this genre.

This lesson is part of the Guitar Beginners Series and is one of the most important lessons of all. Here you start working on your picking technique and you start to figure out which technique might be the right one for you. If you missed lesson 3 where you learn the chords properly please first check out that lesson : Here you can download the files associated to this tutorial :

The core of our strategy has been to transform our digital presence from a collection of isolated websites and social media profiles into one powerful Digital Authority Network using a Hub & Spoke Model. 1. The Strategic PivotOur goal was to move away from the fragility of relying on external platforms (like the YouTube algorithm changes that led to a crisis) and build an owned, stable, and independently verified foundation for our entire business. 2. Consolidated Web PropertiesOur network operates with a clear structure: The Global HubHanspeterKruesi.comThe central verified identity and global point of authority. The Local Spokes & YT Channels Niche, locally relevant (German) domains that feed their specific expertise back to the Hub. 3. Bundling 20+ Years of AuthorityThe key technical breakthrough was using Structured Data and sameAs links. This achieved two critical things: Verified Entity: It told Google that all domains and channels belong to one single, verifiable entity: Hanspeter Kruesi. Historical Activation: It instantly bundled the immense authority built over two decades (including past contributions to sites like Guitartricks and Gibson) with the current network. Google recognized that the historical authority and the current content creator are the same person. 4. Immediate Results (The Validation Phase)The system has successfully overcome the initial crisis and is currently in a phase of rapid recovery and stabilization: Massive Indexing Surge: Indexed pages recovered from a critical low point to over 122,000 (reflecting the full potential), confirming Google's recognition of our deep, quality content library. Quality Confirmation (CWV): Following the acute technical fix, the Core Web Vitals have already significantly increased (from 40 back to 56) and are stabilizing on the path back to top performance (the Green Zone). Traffic Return: Relevant organic traffic has quickly returned and is continuously increasing on both the Hub and Spokes, proving the successful re-activation of our core rankings. 5. Mid-Term Impact (The Future Outlook)The long-term prognosis is one of stability, resilience, and market dominance: Crisis-Proof: The fundamental vulnerability caused by platform dependence is solved. The business now rests on its own, strong, independent foundation. Dominance Surpassed: By consistently delivering expert content and optimizing our thousands of niche landing pages, we expect the network to not only regain the market position of the past but to significantly surpass it. The new structure is resilient, E-E-A-T validated, and designed for sustainable growth. In summary: The immense hard work of the past 20 years has finally been unlocked, creating a powerful foundation for independent, long-term success.

Hallo Fredy, cool - ich kann mich an einen Fredy erinnern, der bei mir im Unterricht war. Das warst in dem Fall Du - das ist aber um die 15 Jahre her oder ? Schön willst Du wieder Gitarre spielen. Soviel ich noch weiss konnest Du schon ein paar Dinge, also musst Du allenfalls nicht mehr ganz von Vorne beginnen. Die von Dir genannten Tutorials sind im Prinzip das Gleiche - das eine Tutorial ist einfach alles auf eine 45 Min. Lektion komprimiert. Ich würde empfehlen den Kurs zu machen mit den 4 Lektionen. Das sollest Du schnell repetiert haben und ab dann kannst Du alle Lektionen welche mit " easy " markiert sind nehmen. Dann ist der Uebergang fliessend. Sonst wenn Du genauere Fragen hast - kannst Du auch gerne wieder mal nach Egg kommen oder hier das Forum benützen.
