  1. This song from my yellow series has been the most succesful songs over the years. It has been used in many broadcasts and YouTube video's and still is been streamed over 8000 times on YouTube. I can not see the source where it is used in fact but I understand why this is one of my most popular songs I created in the farbmusik series because even the production technique is a bit outdated it still has this great positiv and warm vibe which represents so much the color Yellow.

  2. Basic Jazz Guitar Rhythm Rhythm and phrasing is a very important part of jazz guitar. You can play very simple lines and phrases and if your timing and phrasing is great you will sound great. So it's very important that you understand the basics of jazz guitar rhythm and that you practice them with the foot on 2 & 4 which helps you to get a great laid back feel in your phrasing. The trick is to understand what rhythm figure you are playing and to practice them with the 2 & 4 feel as I am showing you in this tutorial.
  3. Yes you can come back to me. I can also synch the music with a teaser or clip. Here a few credits - i discontinued that project 2012 - just updated the credits http://music-pictures.com/credits.html That's nice to hear. As I said - there is in fact a secret behind it. I stopped the composing because my other projects got more priority and working for the professional libraries is not really creative because they always want " sound alike " tracks. But in fact I have been thinking about picking up my composing again because I really love it. But YouTube kept me busy since 2012. So I needed to decide what shall have it's priority. But my knowledge goes into the backing tracks. I can produce them in less then one hour - otherwise it would not be possible to keep up the pace...
  4. And here are the 3 top succesful ones. This one here was a big hit in Switzerland in 2003 This one was on the Ugly Betty show : and this one made like around 2 Mio streams on spotify It was always like that, that those tracks which were produced in less then one hour got successful
  5. Learn by doing :-) you just need to know the basics and then you go and start to make your experiences. So my productions like from 2003 sound different then those from 2020 or so. Thats really hard to say. I give you a selction : I personally love this one here from 2003 very much This one I love a lot : or this one a later production :
  6. All backing tracks you find here on my website are productions from my own studio. For me this is not such a big thing to produce them because I have been a professional composer for TV, Movie and Broadcasting from the years 2003 - 2012. There I active produced tracks, teasers, comercial tracks for adds and things like that. I had many placements in Swiss national TV, in severel ABC shows like Ugly Betty, Orange is the new Black and other TV shows around the globe. So producing backing tracks is really an easy task for me since I know how to produce music in many genres and have the proper tools for that. I am using mainly Steinberg products : Nuendo 11 Groove Agent 5 Halion 6 Wavelab 11 Pro ( Mastering ) Waves Plug ins All Spectrasonic products Ivory Piano's and for guitars AXE FX III AXE FM 3 Godin Concerto Duo Steelstring guitars TL Audio Mic Preamp Newmann Microphon - TLM 105 i think and other software plugins occasionaly.... I have been ask to share more of my production secrets - so I think about it. There is in fact a department where I already did such videos for beginners of production. But I think I can do more of such videos. https://www.hanspeterkruesi.com/members/forum/82-compose-a-guitar-song/
  7. Here you can learn everything you need to know to master a minor blues in the style of Gary Moore or other players in the ballpark. I will show you the chords, the form and the modes which are used in this type of minor blues and a simple way how you can follow the chords. Control over time and space and sound is also important - also try to make music by interacting with the other instruments playing. The biggest mistake you can do on minor blues is to play too many notes. It's all about time, space, form and control of your tone. If you have any questions please ask it in this post below or book a private online guitar lesson. Listen to my full version of this blues here :

  8. I was working on a new tutorial and I did a first take recording on this wonderful original minor blues of mine. It's a bit in the Gary Moore style. First take often catches the magic of a moment. Perfection comes through the perfect moment.... Here you can learn this song :
  9. As a musician one of my goals was always to catch eternity with music. Piano music and Farbmusik and 432 Hz meditation music are perfect for this. But it happens only rarly when you can catch eternity with music that when you meditate with the music in fact you feel eternity. So this is one of those rare moments where I was lucky that the recording button was on. The color is violet - since this is in fact the color of eternity.

    Here is a selection of 4 tapping licks in the key of Am. You can use them in any genre but I guess in rock guitar it fits most and if you want to go for the tapping technique of Eddie Van Halen please use your index finger of your tapping hand to tap in the note marked with a " T " - when I do it with my pic in my hand I normaly use my middle finger and still hold the pick to continue playing after the tapping sequence but this is up to you. Maybe check both techniques.

  10. Many of you might know the song " Hush " performend by Deep Purple - but did you know the version of the Swiss Band Gotthard ? The singer Steve Leedied tragic some years ago on a roadtrip with his motorcylce crue in the USA. The band formed out of the rest of the band is called Core Leoni.

    thats what most people said
  18. Hey Greg, well thats phrygian nat. 3 - sounds quiet oriental. Thats the default mode which is used on the dominant in a minor chord progression. You can play phrygian there. Maybe you like that one more. Later in an improvisation you can also play other modes like mixolydian b6 or altered.
