Here is the fully developed piece (more or less) based on the orchestral sketch I did this morning. Trying to be more efficient with my writing. I was able to finish this theme using only a dozen or so tracks 👍

sorry I don't post on here that much anymore, but don't worry, I'm doing good. Just doing my thing. It's been a great 2025 so far. Hope you're all killin' it. 👍

I liked Polyphia for about a day, until I realized I don't really like prog flamenco hip hop instrumentals, and I'm not convinced that any of you do either.

guitar-Instagram is really a dystopian hellhole of narcissism and gimmickry. Songwriting has been replaced by content creation. There is no song anymore, just the solo, just the meme. Who thought giving guitarists a platform to indulge in our self-absorption was a good idea? 😂

I can tell I'm getting old because the keys on my first MIDI keyboard have turned yellow.

you've heard of Prog Metal, but I play Regress Metal.

I can never understand the mindset of a "prog" guitarist. You almost never see singers, for example, trying to sing as many notes as quickly as possible, it's just not really a goal for singers. But for modern guitarists, it's like they're trying to break the speed barrier.

"audiophiles" will spend thousands of dollars on gold-plated speaker cables, but never get their ears professionally cleaned.

guitar players are the only musicians who do this, and that tells you everything you need to know about guitar players.
