Special Circumstances
An experiment in mixing and playing a whole track in one go, inspired by a ‘riff’ that popped out of Riffler 🙏
A few mistakes including an episode of ‘hunt the drum’ where I missed bypassing an instance of Roli Drums 🤨
Everything except my obligatory GeoShred solo played by one instance of Riffler using TeraVerse, BeatHawk and Roli Drums.
@BillS and @Ailerom mentioned long guitar solos in the ‘Song of the Month Club - April 2023’ thread so I thought I’d inflict this one on them… sorry 😊
Here is the SoundCloud version without the visual distractions…

It's cool. I'm not sure the Ab should be held that long but you have an awesome skill on GeoShred. If I could play it like that I'd make more iPad tunes. I'm too old or lazy or both to learn anything other than guitar now. Really cool to do that in one take. A tough assignment that you pulled off really well. Nice backing track too. At the start I got a bit of a Division Bell, Cluster One vibe.
Peaceful.
Love the artwork.
Your experiment is working out great!
Love the guitar solo!
And the visual attraction is loved!
All in one go. Very calligraphic. Guitar beauty.
I like this. I'd like to try to simulate it in Staffpad. I bought it last year, but held off until the weather got nice enough to sit outside. I can hear a violin playing the guitar part.
This is cool! If daft punk went mellow somehow.
Great stuff, two of my favourite and most frequently used apps in harmony there in GeoShred and Riffler. An appeal of using GeoShred like this is the guitar like expression. I’ve seen Jordan Rudess play this instrument live on stage (as he’s involved with its development that’s not surprising), but he’s the only ‘famous’ adoptee I’m aware of - surely that must change. Anyway, you did a damn fine job @GeoTony , very well played indeed.
Cheers @Ailerom , the Ab was in technical terms a cock up ! Having cocked up, my befuddled brain panicked and decided to make me slide up to the A but not in a way that was remotely musical 😢 I should have done the whole thing again but basically couldn’t be bothered ! I can see what you mean about PF and the slower parts but any comparison with Gilmour is far to generous…
Thanks @ReneAsologuitar , AI strikes again for the artwork. Special Circumstances is the elite section in the Culture SciFi novels so that’s why it’s a spaceship.
Took me a while to work out the Calligraphy reference @LinearLineman but I got there…
Thanks and go for it @Paulieworld 🎻
Very kind of you @sevenape and @BillS 👍
Nice one and, despite what you say, there is definitely a Glimour feel about the phrasing of the "guitar" soloing!
I thought so, but you recovered well.
Love that GS solo!
Watching the video and seeing your playing in real time makes me appreciate your skill that much more. I have GeoShred, but you use it to its full potential. Whether it’s a saxophone sound or guitar you always get the most out of it.
Very special and beautiful recording with outstanding guitar solo. Well done! frenq
Thanks @AlterEgo_UK (I know what you mean about the Gilmour feel, happy accident 😊), @Wrlds2ndBstGeoshredr , @MadeofWax (I appreciate the comment… I do try and change my playing to reflect the instrument being mimicked?) and @Frenq 👍
