Daniele Gottardo - Marrakesh Market

[miyavizim]

so dark! I LOVE IT

[AntonUralskiy]

2:06

DAMN.

That tapping.

Daniele's technique makes me green with envy. Now excuse me while I shove my guitar up my ass.

[SuperDelta000]

@AntonUralskiy lol

[whyisitthatdudeagain]

@AntonUralskiy Take the strings off first. I forgot to, and the high e stabbed me somewhere the sun don't shine.

[89ErwinR]

i love this main melodic idea, its so awesome.

[omatu1]

this makes my palm sweat!

[Lan2Wave]

Incredible music!! Great Guitar work.

[franckbass]

16 people should throw themselves trough the window ...

[Cheximus]

That lick at 2:26 and the bend at 2:29. I just keep watching them over and over and over....

[Cheximus]

Need more songs from you like this and Cardiology

[GabrielDhalaman]

I did not expected to hear the best guitar songs these days coming so easily like that...

I think you:

1-Should somehow introduce yourself to Paul Gilbert,maybe you could perform with him

2-Maybe to play in a trio for some concerts,like a G3,with fernando myiata and hedras ramos,because i elected them really NEW like you are,not a "little bit different copy of the past" as many others are.

[stratcat28]

guitar sith lord

[bebeurski]

He play like god but he put to much delay (in each song)

[Kadadj]

Sorry for asking, but what key is he playing in?

[Nathankthanks]

@Kadadj lol, many.

[ShermanVanilla]

At 2:33 I nearly dropped dead. That lick was so fly it's a miracle you never took off.

[alfredoguy]

Putting that uberschall to damn good use!

[mulotwo]

There's something like Ron Tthal's in this one. Amazing talent !

[srte758]

1:30 ...is that a real piano or midi-guitar ?

[omareissa]

its a shame when awesome music gets soooo little views and crappy music gets alot. soo sad

[Fatalkille]

[dromocronguitar]

Ascoltato live!!! Indimenticabile! Ogni nota un emozione. Miliardi di note, miliardi di emozioni, l'infinito in un suono e il fallimento di ogni descrizione: questa è musica

[karmaran]

[louche1985]

[ffdff]

This music lets the guitar seem more like a weapon instead of an instrument...and damn you really kill with it!

[guiterockermanu]

una volta non mi piacevi per niente, ti criticavo un sacco ma era tutta invidia la mia.. crescendo ti sto apprezzando davvero tanto, sei una bestia! quanti anni hai?

[haloshredder]

[asxefv]

Man you came to marrakesh !!! we could meet i'm from there

[auditsq]

[altemu]

dopo questo video è meglio che prenda la chitarra e la rimetta buona buona nella sua custodia........

daniele....ma come ti vengono queste melodie????son veramente molto belle e toccanti!

[GuybrushThreepwoodMD]

Grande daniele ti ho visto qualche giorno fa a Mottola sei davvero un mostro!

[TruNikkaz]

[chechoguitar112]

[BeautifulllColours]

Bravo!

[arielasentista]

uhm, first thought its a strat with a scalloped fretboard... now im not sure if its just the lighting or worse, my vision's going bonkers LOL scalloped or not..? :)

[seaoflies666]

EPIC

[SparkiiSilver]

his vibrato is amazing

[noglet76]

Really inspiring! Thanks Daniele.

[3greco]

waaaau, man...

[andrytine]

@megadevastation1987 Bisogna tener conto che e' in studio...

[xPanDaemonx]

so good that i went and bought your album from itunes. Good stuff!!

[AyanRafique]

Perfect style, playing, and camera work!!!!

What more can you ask for?

[BraxtonCleburne]

Strepitoso !

[Jadguitare]

Epic song !!

[JavierSaavedraGuitar]

perfecto

[WASABIELEKTRO]

perche addirittura odiare?

Se è un metodo che funziona, tanto meglio no?

mica c'e' una bibbia per come si usa la chitarra, o sbaglio?

il ragazzo è molto bravo, a prescindere dall'elastico o meno, mi pare

[megadevastation1987]

Sìsì...bravura ok...però l'elastico serve ad eliminare parte del rumore prodotto da un'impostazione non corretta a mio giudizio....Diciamo che odio in generale chi suona con questi stratagemmi...preferisco di gran lunga il rumore o la perfezione assoluta senza trabocchetti :D!!!

Avete mai visto SRV suonare con l'elastico????

Usiamo per legarci i capelli suvvia XD

[Chitarrometro]

@megadevastation1987

Sì hai ragione,ma secondo me,a mio modesto parere,non è un'impostazione non corretta...Semplicemente penso che sia difficilissimo fare un tapping del genere senza alcun rumore ;)

[Gravastar00]

@megadevastation1987 madonna se sei ignorante

[megadevastation1987]

@Gravastar00

non mi sembra di aver insultato nessuno qui dentro....sei l'ennesimo esempio della classica persona che sa rispondere solo ad insulti.....i miei complimenti...

[Gravastar00]

@megadevastation1987 non ti ho offeso. ho solo detto che sei ignorante tutto quà. non mi semrba un offesa. se tu lhai recepita in maniera tale non lo era.

[Antimoralism]

@megadevastation1987 Due chitarristi completamente diversi.

Anche Greg Howe usa l'elastico e prima non lo usava...

Mi piace come tiro Srv ma nemmeno con 18 elastici avrebbe eseguito cose del genere per il semplice motivo che Daniele e Srv sono due chitarristi completamente diversi,e non si puo' dire chi sia o no il migliore.

Comunque Daniele e' stato scelto da Steve Vai che ne distribuira' digitalmente il disco.

[megadevastation1987]

Bah...rimango dell'idea che odio chi usa l'elastico per i capelli in quel modo!!!!!

[reckLES65802]

this guy must have learned shitloads of jason becker....he plays almost exactly like him.

[Savatage420]

man his tapping is incredible and he has a very unique dark sound ithink

[JustinCarlinhos]

your dark and romantic style of writing songs is incredible, and your tone also...

the best player on youtube

congratulations!

[zeldazarock]

ciao ma usi solo chitarre con tastiera scavata per ottenere quella velocita?

[Antimoralism]

@zeldazarock La tastiera scavata non c'entra nulla con la velocita',serve solo ad avere piu' controllo nei vibrati e nel bending perche' non ti fa' sentire il legno sotto le dita,come dice Daniele sarebbe pure sconsigliata la tastiera scavata per il tapping ma lui ha fatto pratica su questa.

[ARTonez]

Great future..for this Guy!!

[gitarskicentar]

What to say on this masterpeace of true guitar master!!!

Bravo Daniele!!! You are realy amazing and you inspired me allot!

[Gaviaion]

i,m spechlees...

[danilomg100]

Amazing! I really like your style. Congratulations.

[MrBastouche1]

i know malmsteen and for sure he s an exellent guitar player probably in the top 20in the world but i dont like his personality and his style of music

but your right he is a giant ;)

[ScorpWriter]

I have to say that this performance is stunning. I love the haunting, triplety main theme and the dazzling tapping sequences are great. Beautiful mix of over the top technique and musicality. Great solo as well, i guess i can't say enough good things about this song.

Keep up the innovative solo work MR. Gottardo, and my best wishes for you and your career.

P.D.: I RARELY....read well, RARELY comment on other people's work. This one made me type, though.

[tarikonda]

Great song and nice song title ^^ I'm from Morocco and I love Marakech dearly.

[1990xyphos]

blues jam tracks needs to do this song!!

[gotrottin]

This is the second video I've watch in a row of this amazing player, but I have to say that It's very fatiguing music to listen to. I think the guy is an ultra great player, but I don't like the music.

[trevskiw2008]

what picks does he use?

it looks like a small white picks that is rounded, looks like between 1mm-1.5mm gauge.

Any ideas anyone?

[MrBastouche1]

this guy is enormous, awesone, incredible!!!!!!!!

but i hate malmsteen...

[airtonale]

great...!!!!

[slavoy11]

I hear Cacophony and Jason Becker in yor playing

[FreakGuitaRR]

@slavoy11 gottardo is fan of jason man =)

[slavoy11]

Cool. Now I am fan of them both :)

[FreakGuitaRR]

@slavoy11 me 2 =) !!

[TruckyNiggets]

Wow. Very melodic and great phrasing.

[francyskar]

Grande, l'ho messo nell'Ipod....sei bravo da paura....

[jahaa69]

[foxguitar00]

grande daniele!!!! pezzo stupendo.... grazie a te sto iniziando a dedicarmi seriamente al tapping, ho acquistato anche il tuo dvd :)

puoi dirmi quando uscirà il cd??? sarò il primo a comprarlo xD

[chaggo21]

some steel fingers you got there to do that on 11s

[soulcry66]

UMBELIEVABLE

A GUITAR PRODIGY

[travisturner]

BEST guitarist i've ever seen.

[xxDarkPrismxx]

Incredible! You are an amazing guitarist.

[omnioblivion]

im almost positive you wont reply to this lol...but do you use light strings to bend them that easily...ive got medium to heavy elixirs on mine and i cant seem to get the same bending perfection that you have....but then again its probably just me :P

[gottyboy]

I use d'addario 0.11-0.49...

[omnioblivion]

hey thanks i really appreciate it...and keep putting up great music peices...for real i totally understand and love your style...please post any news on your cd...ill be the first to buy 10 copies! :)

[AyanRafique]

@gottyboy...............:o 11 GAUGE STRINGS???

Well...your pinky might beat me in an arm wrestle.....

[Gravastar00]

@AyanRafique yes he use 11 gauge strings :=)

[Angus9046]

@gottyboy

gotty, cosa ne pensi delle GHS sub zero? un parere un po' parecchio molto moltissimo più esperto del mio mi può far comodo... :)

[Nickiefive]

@gottyboy my god i have trouble moving 10's i am thoroughly impressed

[elppce]

@gottyboy awsome!!! you have strong fingers jeje :D you rock man!

[VirtuosoJunkie73]

@omnioblivion

I thought that I'd add that the scalloped fretboard helps A TON with bending ease. Your finger wraps around the string because of the lack of fretboard and bending becomes a cinch even with heavy gauge strings!

[guitarman801]

@omnioblivion

he scalps his fretboard so it is really easy to get under the strings when he bends.

[jfo3000]

@omnioblivion Huge frets and/or the scalloped board help immensely with ease of bending. I've got giant frets on the black Peavey Tracer in my vids and it is a joy to bend on. Give the frets or scalloped board a try if you can.

[MrJakeDavid]

O.O....a masterpiece!!

[omnioblivion]

not sure what to say...simply amazing

[morenovadini]

Cosa dire??? .......FANTASTICO!!!!!!!

[wahwah666]

Hints of Steve Hackett here...masterful. Where can I buy your album Gottyboy???

[reaper2ooX]

ive probably listened to this song at least 50 times and i dont get sick of it

[ZIOKKKAN]

Ke bel pezzo!sei grande e dai molta ispirazione!

BRAVO!!!

[doedelie]

I will definately buy your CD. I like this even better than i did cardiology. When are you getting your shrapnel record label?

[davewanted]

Mi hai lasciato davvero senza parole!!sei mitico!!!!!!!!

Espressività, tecnica, velocità sweep, bendig, tapping...cosa chiedere di più ad un assolo?!?

TI vorrei chiedere una cortesia: se andassi a vedere i miei video su youtube e mi dessi qualche tab come esercizio.

Grazie MITO!

[lauriemonk]

the best... just gets better!

[Hack3r91]

Veramente un gran pezzo e una grande tecnica (quelle scale in tapping sono da capogiro). Bello vedere che qualcuno padroneggia a dovere una tecnica come il tapping senza ridursi ai soliti due riff. Sei forte, continua così! 5/5+fav

[JohnsOnStrings]

I love the technique, but also really enjoy his respect for various genres, and look forward to him maturing and encorporating more into his reportoire... right now it's mostly razzle dazzle and not enough "musical statement" ... Gotty could be the next Vai... heck, better than Vai... enjoy the ride!

[johnpetrucci42]

Freaking Brilliant man...but did you cheat and use a string dampener...lol...jk...it doesn't matter. I loved it man....looking forward to seeing more and purchasing albums.

[reaper2ooX]

amazing song

[kgtbest]

This guy is an out right genius , jeesus , al hail gottyboy and all you haters by the looks of things you are pretty envious but I tell ya it can only inspire us mortals to get better.

[CreamofDirkDiggler]

What are doing? running around to all his videos crying about the Hair tie? What a cry baby. Show some videos of you playing anything even close...and maybe someone would actually listen to you.

[polonaki]

Who cares about hairt tie?... just listen to the music... It is great even if he is using a sock or underwear on the headstock...lol

[ardenthash]

its not flawless if you have to use something to dampen string noise. even though it is a good comp, i still think you should do without the hair tie.

[Angus9046]

can you do that, with the hair tie?

[juaguartomatito]

Please do it you! I´m sure you can´t do it with 100 hair ties.

[adibahl]

You fucking piece of shit. Do you have a clue about 8 finger tapping? Surely not. It's a MUST to use the hair tie for advanced 8 finger tapping and you would never understand that till you do it yourself, jerk. Even Guthrie Govan uses a hair tie cause he plays shit at that level. It's not CHEATING by any means. Learn to know about something before posting shit like this.

[wnfcjkenvfj]

just out of curiosty (im a new guitar player) what exactly does that hair tie do?

[timjatomnee]

@wnfcjkenvfj it mutes the strings so it sounds cleaner

[jameswrigley]

lol well prety much, you see when he is tapping, instead of leading with the left hand so the open notes are muted, he leads with his right in places, which means taping on an open string and then removing that hand so that a note can ring when he taps with his left hand, in between this an open note can ring and sound horrible, so the hair tie stops any open notes from ringing, its very hard to get your technique to a point with tapping where no open notes ring out by accident.

[HotFireFingers]

you can use it to give you harmonics but mainly it reduces string noise when you tap

[asxefv]

@adibahl

without it i get a lot of noise in that sevens solo of guthrie

so i ts important to use

[srvgravesdime]

@adibahl There are enough examples of people who do it without one though: Chris Broderick, Buckethead, Steve Vai (not sure about 8-finger, but I've never seen him use one) Bumblefoot, etc, etc... Anyways, all I'm saying is that it isn't NECESSARY. Neither are scalloped frets.

[InsaneClownBitch]

@srvgravesdime But whats the problem with it? They may not be nexessary but if you feel more comfortable with it, whats the problem about it?

[srvgravesdime]

@InsaneClownBitch I equate those things with compression. I find compression, for the most part, is like a safety net for a lack of practice. Some people do have brilliant compression tone (EJ for example), but for the most part I find it takes away the dynamics of the music. Sure it's all prim and proper, but where's the meat? where's the soul? I'd be far more impressed if every other shredder out there today didn't use one of these things.

[InsaneClownBitch]

@srvgravesdime But he is a great player and he plays it with soul. His compositions, in my pov, are full of heart and soul and i love them.

[srvgravesdime]

@InsaneClownBitch Fair enough.

[fechi5]

@adibahl what's the hair tie for? I always assumed it was meant to silence the strings that could be left vibrating openly (to prevent unwanted noises). But wouldn't that make impossible the playing of open strings?

[metalsg]

@fechi5 take it off quickly and then you can, since his chords normally don't use open strings, but he taps a lot, makes the sound more compressed on the tapping, eliminating some ruids when he switches strings for example in the tapping, these are my thoughts anyway...

[reaperofgenocide]

@adibahl Next thing you know ppl are gonna say using a pick is cheating. This isnt an exam or test.... its fucking art.

[ginolo90]

@adibahl are you idiot?

[curiousHost]

It's been while since I watched someone and said....wow....ok....All I cannow is wow....not only flawless technique but very high level composition as well....show me your CD and I am buying.

[BostonTeaBagParty]

Is his neck scalloped? I can't tell... lol

[Gravastar00]

yes it is :=)

[guitarjakku]

Yeah man, this neck is scalloped :) PLUS Gotty uses .11's

[LoserNO13]

Wow. This is incredible. That's all I can say really.

[fma76]

Pro recording !!! I liked !!! Keep Rocking !!!

[MehosPhace]
