This is a very interesting song for flatpickers. The original melody has two voices but I decided to divide them instead into lead and bass line.
Initially I wanted to give it a Latin sound by way of upright bass and Latin drum, but I got the same effect having the upright bass but keeping the original drum machine from the game :)
A lot of syncopated notes also contribu...

Hi guys! Here is an update on my next cover. It's Le Festin, a very nice song from Disney's movie Ratatouille.
For this one I decided to go back to the Recording King guitar (now proudly owned by one of my students š) to get that nice crisp tone from some of my previous covers (Pink Panther, Up theme, Take Five). That tone is the resulting combin...

This one has been arranged for two guitars: a solo guitar and a straightforward bossa nova rhythm accompaniment.
The brilliant thing about it is that both theme and accompaniment can also stand alone because they each sound good on their own.
As you probably know this song has an A-A-B-A form. The B part has quite an exciting harmony that merges beautifully with the famous A part, a...
2020-06-09 17:09:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! Here is a preview of my new cover. It is a well known song composed by Jobim which I am sure you will recognize š
This time I chose to avoid VST instruments and just shoot for a nice, clean guitar tone. The arrangement is for two guitars; I used my old Sekova guitar for the bossa nova accompaniment and a Takamine for the theme and solo. The Sekova was record...

I find this song so addictive to play! As I mentioned previously it does have its challenges, but the time invested in it is totally worthwhile as it will be a valuable addition to your fingerstyle repertoire. It is interesting that this song has a form of a 12 bar blues, yet doesn't sound like classic blues. I personally find that the blues form always gives you a...
2020-05-28 15:52:21 +0000 UTC View PostSummer is almost here and Mango Jerry's classic In the Summertime is a perfect song for the coming days. This happy song is ideal for fingerstyle, although it does have its challenges! Here is a short audio excerpt of the first chorus - you'll have the whole song very soon.

Hey guys!
Here is the new song I've been working on. Prepare yourself for some good neo-soul vibe!
See you soon with more material! ;)
Hello, just a brief announcement of my next project. It is a neo-soul ballad by Daniel Caesar called Best Part. The song is relatively new but it quickly became very popular. Notably it involves simple and very beautiful harmonies with only four chords: Dmaj7, Am7, Gmaj7 and Bbmaj7. I crafted a fingerstyle version of the song in order to best present both har...
2020-05-10 19:02:00 +0000 UTC View PostOk, this time we have something quite different yet true to Guitar Logic style. Soundgarden's song Black Hole Sun can be such an ear worm! It popped into my mind again the other day and I thought I'd give it a go. I started with a clean fingerstyle sound but ended up adding effects: phaser, drive, tremolo, and reverb. Then some interesting lo-fi ambient electronic drums and it all came together...

Guys, a very nice ballad by Pat Metheny, Last Train Home, is ready and uploaded on my channel.
You can get PDF files and the backing track in attachment.
See you soon ;)
Here is another teaser for you! Iām almost done with Pat Methenyās great tune Last Train Home. The original song is in the key of Bb but to make it easier to play I transposed it to A major and put a capo on the first fret. There are some wonderful harmonies in this song and it gave me great joy to play and record it, I hope you will find joy in it too.
Thank you all for your support!...

Ok, new piece ready for practicing! We have nice old tune Out of Nowhere played in Travis picking style

Hello!
Continuing with our repertoire of good music I would like to share some of the songs that I am currently working on.
The first one (almost done) would be the old tune Out Of Nowhere by Johnny Green. There are great versions of this song out there from Charlie Parkerās, to Sinatraās, to Django Reinhardtās, and many others. Interestingly enough, I couldnāt find any Trav...
2020-04-10 15:00:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello, I'm working on a new song! Speak Low, a wonderful tune by Kurt Weill. I have been intrigued for quite some time with Henri Salvador's version which sounds so simple and effortless. Then later I listened to Laurindo Almeida's version from his album Brazilliance - vol. 1 and I found the two versions had a lot in common with a slight difference in background rhythms.
My version builds...

Have you heard the song Billie Eilish wrote for the new James Bond movie?
It's called No Time To Die, I instantly fell in love with it and decided to make a cover.
I'm about halfway through and thought it would be nice to post a few excerpts for you to enjoy in the meantime...

My plan is to collect around 30 samba and bossa nova songs which have a dominant guitar pattern at the beginning and to present them in a single video.
Here are some audio examples of the pieces I have already made.

Hello, my friends!
I recently started working on Scott Joplin's āThe Entertainerā. The original is written for piano in the key of C major and the usual version for guitar is in D major and drop D tuning. I made my own version in several keys, but decided that the key of E major sounds best!
