Learn ”FREE-STYLE” PIANO & play any song INSTANTLY TUTORIAL

Learn ''FREE-STYLE'' PIANO & play any song INSTANTLY TUTORIAL

Learn ”FREE-STYLE” PIANO & play any song INSTANTLY TUTORIAL

Playing its favorite piano songs ”instantly” is a goal that every pianists aspire to do. But very few of them reach this level unless they have practiced piano for 20 years and even more.

In fact, as you know, most pianists have to practice for several weeks and sometimes months before they can play just one of their favorite songs.

The main reason is because they have to read many notes in a clef for the right-hand while they have to read and play as many notes in the left hand. And additionally, in a different clef.

And what can be frustrated for a beginner or an intermediate level pianist, is that all its favorite songs scores found in musical stores or on the internet are not always adapted for his level.

This course is intended to give you the basic tools to play piano like your favorite singers’ pianists or your favorite piano pop pianist: by reading and playing freely the melody and the chord symbols.

Playing a piano song without having to read the notes on the Bass clef (F clef) staff but only have to read the song melody and chord symbols is surely the quickest and easiest way for learning a piece.
And that’s what this course is about.

The ”melody + chord symbols” system allows to play any song in a few minutes or hours (max.).
That’s why piano players, even mid-beginners, can learn and play many of their favorite songs in a couple of days with this system.
This course will teach you step by step, how to achieve this goal.

How?
Each lesson has a new ”technique”, which is explained and demonstrated on the piano and it also has a practice section at the end to make sure the technique is well understood.

Once you will have practice the technique with many of your favorite songs, the technique will become assimilated in your brain and ”muscles memory” and after a while you will be able to play it with any other song ”instantly’, just by reading its melody and by applying the technique to its chord symbols.

Then after you will have learned, practiced and assimilated all the other patterns individually, you will learn how to put and choose some of these patterns and techniques together to make simple but nice personal versions (arrangements) of your favorite songs.

And after a while you will be able to use them instinctively, just by reading their melodies and chords instantly or after a few minutes of trying.

That’s what is call ”Free-style piano playing”.

You’ll choose the patterns and techniques according to your level. That’s why with this system you will be able to play all your favorite songs, even after the first lesson.

Obviously, with the first lessons, your versions will be a little simple but gradually they will become more and more pretty and interesting.

So, choose some of your favorite song scores, sign up and let’s get started!

What you’ll learn:

  • Basic techniques for playing any song instantly with chord symbols
  • Left-hand patterns to accompany right-hand (melody)
  • Techniques to embellish the melody
  • Techniques to improve the arrangement by connecting consecutive chords smoothly
  • To adapt the free style techniques for any chord duration or time signature
  • To play any of their favorite pop songs instantly with basic left-hand techniques

MG Soft Nylon Guitar KONTAKT

MG Soft Nylon Guitar KONTAKT

MG Soft Nylon Guitar KONTAKT

I am very happy to introduce Soft Nylon Guitar, offering the beauty and warmth of an intimately recorded nylon string guitar, whilst replicating all the behaviours and nuances of a real guitar through detailed scripting and careful calibration. As its name suggests, the samples were performed with emphasis on the soft and delicate. The instrument is available for Kontakt 5.8.1+, including the free Kontakt Player. There is also a free “lite” version for you to try that is available for DecentSampler.

Rather than using a full-size classical guitar and its somewhat ‘formal’ tone, I sampled a small- bodied nylon guitar that I have used countless times on my TV production music and video game scores, which offers a very flexible voice in many styles, from traditional classical and folk to modern production genres. The Soundcloud demo player showcases the instrument in various styles.

After some years in development, my mission has been to offer a guitar VST capable of delivering ground-breaking realism through an intuitive real-time playing experience. I hope this instrument will inspire you to incorporate the beauty of the nylon guitar into your work.

Many thanks,

Mike Georgiades Guitarist & Composer

Felix’s Machines – Robot Percussion MULTIFORMAT

Felix's Machines - Robot Percussion MULTIFORMAT

Felix’s Machines – Robot Percussion MULTIFORMAT

Wires, Solenoids, Gears and Switches are not normally associated with making music but we have a very special treat for you as we proudly announce the incredible talents of Felix Thorn and Robotic Music Machines.

Felix’s Machines were initially conceived in an experiment aiming to facilitate live music by transforming sound into a three-dimensional visual show. As an ongoing project, the music-performing machines built by Felix do not intend to match human potential. Instead they exist to test the advantages of mechanical instruments alone.

Robot Percussion features mesmerising performances of hand built music monsters triggering a range of real drums, bells, chimes, motors and discarded objects controlled by a computer brain creating complex rhythms and intricate soundscapes.

Felix Thorn was born on 23rd December 1985 in Brighton, UK. At an early age he attended Brighton Steiner School where his affinity for the arts gave rise to a preoccupation with drawing, a passion that later developed into oil painting. Then aged 7 he was formally introduced to music and began studying the piano. His lack of inclination towards reading music pre-empted an obsession with jazz improvisation in his teenage years.

At college, Felix developed this sensibility into a new media of music creation when he discovered a keen interest in electronic music production via computer software. He had a love for making music with computer synthesizers and an ability to create in a range of styles, often derived from by organic means.

In this time of music-making and painting whilst studying Sound Art at The London College of Communication, University of the Arts, London, Felix experimented with finding ways to incorporate drawing and sculpture into his sound projects, so Felix began to teach himself electronics which would be the key to fusing his main passions together and soon an army of musical robots began to take over his world.

Included in the Pack are recordings of the Machines in full glory in a variety of venues capturing all natural reverbs and effects of the machines in situ. Robotic percussion also includes a huge collection of loops made from the multi sampled Exs24 sample instruments Felix uses to create more controlled productions. Multi Track MIDI files and Multi Sampled Machine Patches are in there too allowing producers to mix, modify, effect and create their own robotic performances.

In Detail expect to find: 71 live percussion loops, 301 virtual & manipulated loops, 9 bass drum hits, 9 snare hits, 13 cymbal hits, 35 glockelspiel sounds, 133 percussion hits, 7 synth hits, 176 MIDI Files, 376 REX2 files and 53 soft sampler patches for NNXT, Halion, SFZ, EXS24 and Kontakt.

The Machines are primed and ready to rock as we bring you the first sample collection of its kind with Felix’s Machines – Robot Percussion.
