I will do a livestream this afternoon on my TikTok channel. Don't exactly know what I will be playing but I can tell that I will do a longer livestream and probably focus on jazz guitar and touch technique. You find my tiktok channel here - you can of course also subscribe there :

I will add upcoming news of my activities here - also those which are time sensual such as spontaneous livestreams. If you don't want to miss them then just " Follow " this topic. The news feed also includes updates in my personal professional blog where I share some useful background information about guitar practicing strategies, composing, music business or anything else.

Here you can learn the very important off beats with some examples on an easy off beat rock guitar riff in D. Here you can download the files associated to this tutorial :

In fact a very interesting question. I would say the reason for this is that you might be used to play the blue note very often which is in fact 1/4 bended A. There is a german word for that which I don't know how to translate : Hörgewohnheit ( something like " ways your ears are use to hear music ) and in this case this lead to your personal perseption that the 1/4 bend in this case sounds correct. At the beginning of music there was first the " Hörgewohnheit " and that leaded to theory. So your way is the original, intuitiv one.

A classic moment every guitar player show know

As I already said TikTok is a wonderbox - somehow there are always good and bad news at the same time. After doing the first livestream on TikTok today I came to the conclusion that my focus shall remain here on this website. I lost like nearly 3 days of going through specs and messages and testing - it's just too time consuming.

TikTok in fact is a wonder-box - I don't really know what the algorithm is doing but I am reaching the monetization level and I have been invited by an Agency today to join their network. That's in fact a huge thing because they work directly together with TikTok and they will promote the upcoming live streams I will be doing on TikTok. Like 2 months ago I applied on tiktok for some advice about live streaming. Then TikTok contacted me personally and now I am in this really cool Agency. I had a personal call last week. Since the algorithm of YouTube got so bad in the past 18 months and not supporting my content so much anymore this is what was needed to get more traffic and views. TikTok mostly has been very supportive regarding my content and the great thing is that it was only performance content which did not get supported by YT so much. So all in all - great news. And no worries the guitar tutorials will remain on YT - or at least here in the same format on this website.

There is a modern sounding beat with cinematic elements and a group doing the claps. There is also a trance-like sound at the beginning, which opens the track. Then comes the string orchestra.

I created the image of the video with AI (Photoshop) and animated it in Premiere to capture the drama of the piece in an image. The Farbmusik concerts are starting to evolve with the new sound and new concept and the new guitar. The past 2 concerts have been great the more and more audience is coming to the local venue.
