Stormbringer (My own composition)

[armortron]

What are you using for effects?

[aalataur]

@armortron Don't remember anymore. This is very old stuff. 

[fottitiutube]

F*ck yeah! Awesome!

[Azagoreth]

That first riff is a few notes short of being a knock off, i can't remember the name of the song for the life of me, but ive heard that before... at any rate its still kick ass... nice work

[aalataur]

@Azagoreth Probably.. it's really typical chord progerssion and melody in the beginning. The only part of the song I really don't like at all.

[Krmzz]

Cant believe it has already been 2 years since i last commented on this video, still listening to this every now and then. about your reply " not enough good enough songs..." : fuck that, this song is like better than %98 of those shitty songs out there. KEEP IT UP! dont ever stop making music.

[Dreckswaran]

Amazing!

[135798642subscribers]

I'm back! Lol, have a wonderful Valentines day

[risinglegend09]

[135798642subscribers]

And once again, mate, I commented about a year ago, AGAIN, so yes sir i do still listen to this song, have a brutally wonderful ThanksGiving Aalataur!

[omar1131]

so fucking creative man ..its so like awesome

maybe ull get famous one day who knows..

[aalataur]

@omar1131 Many thanks.. Famous, not a chance :D Not enough good enough songs...

[armortron]

@aalataur don't get down on yourself man. Fantasy metal still hasn't made its mark yet.

[xXLORDJERKXx]

i like it alot it has a slow melodic sound with a neo classical twist. very intersting

[9Christina9]

that is SO AWESOME!!!

[Mynamesketan]

All of you should check out a power metal band from india called slain. they are brilliant! Go check em out on reverbnation!

Great composition :)

[ligthsoldier]

damn man ur so great i just cant stop listening!!

[Lavietto]

very neat man like your vids keep schreddin!!!!!

[dumapies]

wow dude you epicly win at guitar....this and all of your compositions are epic, i downloaded them to mp3 (if you don't mind) and listen to them all the time

[aalataur]

@dumapies: thanks a lot mate, I don't mind at all, that's what they've made for, listening

[dumapies]

@aalataur you're welcome, the reason im asking is because some people get pissed if you download their stuff etc.

[ezequieles]

really really nice!. thanks for showing your talent!. : )

[bodomcrew1970]

Vere nice

do you have a band???

[A2NKD9Y]

i couldnt have put that better myself mate

[A2NKD9Y]

wow only that long? you are really good. I been playing for 5 1/2 years and i am not that creative. Nice Job.

[aalataur]

Well, some players compose more, some less. It doesn't necessarily have to do with skill as a player.

[A2NKD9Y]

How long have you been playing?

[aalataur]

Since 2005

[adams1992pl]

where i can download it?

[aalataur]

Read info text on the right side of the video -->

[ussdefiant27]

dude this is so fuckin awesome, we need this kind of power metal this days, tell me that you got a band and playing this stile...

Greetings

[135798642subscribers]

HEY i commented your video like 1 year ago, But i wanna say again I LOVE THIS SONG,Very nice dude please keep up the GREAT work and Have a nice christmas. Im wondering when you will make a new song/composition. KEEP UP WONDERFUL WORK :)

[aalataur]

Good to hear pal :) Happy holidays for you too

[RTJaKaL]

Sweet Jam dude... I even like the name, taken from the Elric Saga?

[aalataur]

Thanks. Yeah, it's from there...

[sudenuni]

Really good composition, very melodic, and nice playing too. Keep up the good work dude !

[aalataur]

Thanks bro ^^

[Demetrisx]

I've heard most of your compositions on youtube and I have to say that this one is the best. It is very catchy and with some vocals it can become a hit.

[aalataur]

Thanks man.. yeah I think it's the best power metal type of composition I've ever written...

[amazon18]

great song

[aalataur]

Thanks mate :)

[Romulan07]

I think that it's required for anyone who plays guitar to have that poster somewhere in their home. I can't think of a single guitarist I know that doesn't.

Wonderful composition, mate. It's reminiscent of Dragonforce, only without the cheesy crap--and you can play it outside of the studio. 5/5.

[aalataur]

Thanks man! Yeah the poster has to be there, since there is a hole in the door and it's covering it :D But nice Zeppelin poster anyway. I have a lots of band stuff like mugs, shirts and shit like that.. Even a Jackson Guitars mousepad lol :P

[GuardianThatCantSee]

FUCK YEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

[dreadknot4]

i would love to be in a band with you, your music is sexy

[TheSauronator]

Dude, thats pretty awesome. You should totally be in a power metal band.

[aalataur]

My humblest thanks!

[135798642subscribers]

DUDE fucking epically awesome i subscribed to you like 2 times with my ACCOUNTS and i love stormbringer!!!! +10 *Subscribe* <<a long time ago)

[aalataur]

Thanks bro! Subscribing is already a big compliment.

[FreedomSector]

Right on! +10! :-) You are definetely going through a "growth spurt". What, a song a day (or so)? I am a big fan of people who write their own music. The path to creativety is usually a long one, with little support from others (generally). Only prob. with this song was the two hand tapping parts, I couldn't make them out too well. Anyways, YOU RULE DUDE!!!

[aalataur]

Our humblest thanks! :) No way man, not song a day, nowhere near that. It's a long and sloooow process for me to compose. I've been advancing in technical things like speed and accuracy but I'm still a very slow composer.

[Draeku]

the shortest i've written a song was in 3days, but i have nothing to recored with and no video camera, but one day, when i get Guitar rig, i upload some Mp3s

[Naticlese]

Yes

[Lumixeo196]

Great work. I am not a huge BG fan but do listen to them on occasion.

I play some, but not enough to compose a piece such as this.

Great work ^^ - Cheers.

[aalataur]

Thx bro

[pukong5]

Great song man u got something here 5/5 realy good melody, did u do the drumming also ??

[aalataur]

Thanks a lot! Drumming is made with Toontrack Drumkit From Hell.. it's a VST Instrument

[gouzman666]

can i ask something????do u have this masterpiece :-p on tabs???

[aalataur]

No tabs I'm afraid

[gouzman666]

ok man,no problem

[zmarzly3]

yeah ur bad... and ur style.. never make it. that vid was made 3 years ago. your a loser. haha nice try tho. learn some sweeps trems and alternate picking it might help. fucking loser

[aalataur]

What the fuck are you talking about? 3 years ago? I have never commented your video in my life...

[Aegis4843]

Ignore the dumbass. Probably some brat kid who plays too much Guitar Queero who thinks he knows jack shit about music.

[135798642subscribers]

What did he say, I cant see cause its -6 LOL someone please tell me what he said.

[gouzman666]

oh don't listen to him...he must be some idiot who dreams that he is playing guitar..... very nice man... 5/5

[aalataur]

Thanks bro! This dipshit plays the guitar but I don't care jack shit about comments of that nature. I won't even bother to remove/block them..

[135798642subscribers]

you are such a fag dude why would you shit talk about ALLATAUR. hes fucking awesome

[Aegis4843]

Excellent playing, my friend. Had a beautiful sound all the way. I have been listening to it while playing Street Fighter IV, and it almost sounds like it could be a character theme =P 5/5

I'm not sure if you knew this or not, but your download link says that the file is no longer available.

[aalataur]

Thanks man! And thanks for the tip, I have to replace the link with newer one.

[Kaijunjiru]

You make awesome music.

Truly incendiary. Being a heavy fan of BG, myself, I find yours to be a style bearing glorious likeness in skill and melodic composition to that of their better works.

Much respect...

[aalataur]

Many thanks man.. though I feel you are heavily exaggerating :P

[rockerguy1994]

Almost hypnotic.... 5* also what do you use to record the guitar?

[aalataur]

Thanks heaps! I use Reaper by Cockos, it's the best around I'd say... very cheap and almost as good as expensive pro software. Just google "reaper", it's the first search result you'll get..

[neonfox3]

i had this song stuck in my head all friggin day, it's strange how a guy on youtube who creates a melody can do that to someone.

you have talent, i had to download it.

[aalataur]

Many thanks man.. very cool to hear that.

[ExiledAttila]

Great Epic Song man!!!

Congrats!!!!:)

[faig1958]

Isnt the Ibanez S5470 ?

Is the one i want to buy.

I am between that one and a Gibson Les Paul Standard Alpine White

[aalataur]

This guitar is Jackson TH1. I've never played a S5470. The best advice I can give that always test before buying! Never judge a guitar by it's look (or price).

[JonasDenVise]

Really nice man! you managed to get a good fantasy feel to the song! Im also a fan of BG ;) have a little cover of the mirror mirror solo if you're intressted , just visit my channel ^^ cheers mate

[Yzapper]

wonderful^^ sorry for double post...but thats the song of freedom.. a song that you hear, and then you think of endless falling... nice dude...very nice... can i have the tabs for it? Wanna try it with my band...ill send you if we got it... we will write a songtext...okey? :D

[aalataur]

Thanx man.. sorry, no tabs at the moment I'm afraid..

[Yzapper]

hm okey... what kind of strings you use?

[aalataur]

DR 10-46 here..

[Yzapper]

..so...amazing

[Yzapper]

oh my god. amazing.

[DaleyDerek]

howd you get the drums for this?

JW :)

[aalataur]

Read my channel info, it's there

[hacklorien]

muy lindo tema!!!!

[emeraldbeast]

Wow man, this is really good!

Heck, you're the guitarrist I need for my band! hehe, but, so far away!

I love Blind Guardian, it's one of my biggest influences besides Gamma Ray!

Your style is really good man, I love it!

[aalataur]

Many thanks man!

[ComanderDailey]

This is some awesome stuff man! I just can't figure out what your rhythm chords and pattern are. Could you send me the rhythm track and the chord progression if possible? Thanks! =)

[aalataur]

Thanks dude.. I'll see what I can do

[ComanderDailey]

Thank you! =)

[erdbeeri92]

This reminds me of Iron Maiden somehow. Or at least the beginning does. Keep up the good work!

[DaleyDerek]

same cuz of the harmony,

Is it 3 frets higher? or somthing?

[Krmzz]

This is one hell of a song, you should focus more on power metal riffs like this definitely!

[aalataur]

Thanks man.. I'll consider that

[shitable]

omg:D dude you are absolutely awesome i wish i could have a band member like you who can write these kind of music

[aalataur]

I don't normally compose this type of music. I have only four songs of this type.

[gringo1107]

man this is the true shit..fantasy power!!.. blind guardian :x i really love your covers ..i'm a guitarist too i play for 3 years now and i can play a few tunes from BG but..you're a bit better than me :D..rock on dude!

[aalataur]

Thanks man! And rock on!

[guilhermefelizzola]

pretty awesomde dude! :D

when it changes from the 3:54 - 4:08 part to the 4:08 - 4:32 is so epic!

[aalataur]

Many thanks! The part from 3:54 - 4:08 wasn't originally there, it was a kind of last minute add

[Dankscarver]

Are there certain scales that I should learn If I wanted to play Power Metal? I love Power Metal but I can never seem to write anything that sounds as awesome as this.

Halp?

[aalataur]

Thanks! This uses basic minor scale mostly. Some other notes in some parts maybe (?), not really sure which scale... I'm weak at theory. Minor and major will get you far

[Dankscarver]

Awesome man, 'cause my guitar teacher is getting us to learn Mixlydion and make our own composition of it. So I was think I might make a Power Metal of Mixlydion. I'll just have to play around with it until then.

And thanks!

[DschinghisKhanR0cKs]

dude u rock soo much!! i love ur song 3:54 to 4:08

[aalataur]

Cheers mate!

[DschinghisKhanR0cKs]

Dang i love your playing!!!

[o5k4r]

that was very good! :)

you have cool, powerful ideas, man! I liked the 2:55 most, such a heart touching melody :)

keep composing, mate! :) 5*

[aalataur]

Many thanks man! That's my favorite part as well.. 2:55 - 3:36

[shichihaganetenshi]

5 STARS \m/ nice job dude

[aalataur]

Thanks heaps man... and thanks for the subscription!

[celepaska]

Do you have your own band?

Are you professional musician?

Do you play in public, or you have so much joy at home? ;)

[aalataur]

No I'm not a pro.. I've had many bands which play live gigs, but at the moment I don't have a band. Just some projects which are not exactly bands

[celepaska]

i cry and tear my clothes [cries]

[celepaska]

goddamn. it's level of B.G. (!) +7

[aalataur]

I'm not sure if I understood your comment :| Sorry for my bad english

[celepaska]

first of all - sorry for *MY* bad english.

I said you have level of Blind Guarian, in my opinion. You're lucky - you can emanate such gorgeous melodies, they're coming from your heart. Keep going.

[aalataur]

Thanks heaps dude!

[Hackeras13]

You sure are a talented guy my friend :D

I sure enjoyed a lot your song!!!

[aalataur]

Many thanks man

[Scarletsultan]

Yes me again.

Can you say me how u do that backing track.

Is there a programme wich u downloaded from the internet ???

Or sth. else ???

Please answer me.

Because i have got an own song, too.

In youtube you can see it - go on my Canal.

Thanks !!!

5 Stars !!!!

[aalataur]

Thanks for the rating man.

I didn't download, I bought them from a store. There is many different VST's, you would have to select the ones that fits your budget/music style best... XLN Audio and Toontrack have some good stuff for example.

[Y0UTUBEGUITAR]

100 % by your own ??????

Fantastic !!!

[aalataur]

Yep. Thanks dude.

[TES4OB]

what scale are you using for this type of metal?

[aalataur]

Mostly normal minor scale. Sometimes major or minor/major with slight changes. Thanks for the subscription man.

[aalataur]

Since 2005. Thanks for subscription man!

[LolEpicFailGuy]

Great melody.

[aalataur]

[333841]

Well done good composition!

[aalataur]

Thanks man.

[roguenoobkiller]

your stuff is amazing!

[aalataur]

Thanks a lot dude.

[Draeku]

u think u can send me some tabs, dont worry about me stealling it, 1) Im pretty Suckish at guitar 2) Im only 13yrs old 3) I only own a suckish Yamaha EG112C Strat, like literally 5yrs old, i got as a gift from my uncle

[aalataur]

Sorry man, there is no tabs of it. It's all in my head

[eragon2121]

Also, I think the first 40 seconds or so were the best part.

[aalataur]

Thanks man. That's funny, me, I don't like the first 40 sedonds that much :D

[eragon2121]

Sounds awesome so far, I love instrumental music sometimes it's better with no vocals.

[ErdisCai666]

Sounds good. It has a nice melody to it.

[aalataur]

Thanks man. Arrangement is not very good, but the melody I'm happy with.

[Draeku]

i love this song, i downloaded the mp3, and i listen to it the first thing when i get home school, love this

[aalataur]

That's truly great to hear, mate.

[vTrTsc]

Your music dont need any singer

[aalataur]

Well... maybe not most of my songs, because they are quite guitar oriented. But this one is not composed for guitar. I composed it with a singer in mind, maybe someone like Hansi Kürsch or Michael Kiske, or Kai Hansen. Not really sure.. but the melody in this song is simpler than in most of my songs, and not very suitable for guitar I think.

[vTrTsc]

OMG =0, its perfect...

i'm your fan man ;]

[aalataur]

Thanks dude. Would need a singer though.. if you're a good metal singer and want to sing this, please contact me ;)

[hen92596]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!

[aalataur]

Thanks dude. Appreciate it.

[m4ginpker]

Nice job, some notes should be a bit longer, not much so it doesn't seem like you forgot your place. But it's your first attempt and a great one at that! Im still looking forward to you doing Dyer's eve from metallica. lol

[aalataur]

Thanx mate. This video is "fake" in a way, because what you see and what you hear are different recording. I recorded the song and harmonies first, then just played over it with my guitar volume turned to zero to make it look like I was playing. Dyer's Eve is freaking hard song. I've never tried to play the solos on that one. Only rhythm.

[realliquidsnake]

he says that your song is really good, that he loved it and he would like to compose the way u do :D

[aalataur]

Cool, thanks for the translation

[alkaedas666]

owo tremenda song me ha encantado waa quisiera componer haci D:

salu2 nwn

[aalataur]

Sorry, I don't understand other languages than english and finnish

[realliquidsnake]

keep rocking because u r really good
