I think creativity is born through improvising. So are al kinds of technologies for that matter. Usually the most brilliant discoveries and arts are found while trying something else. Even failures bring knowledge and skill. Plus it's fun. All my talented friends do the same thing. Yes structured education is important however we should always think outside the box and keep the mind free to explore. Boundaries are just restricting.
Improvising is the greatest, I can spend more than an hour straight playing piano. I'll be thinking about one thing or another, and as my emotions change, so does the music. It's the best feeling.
this is the direction i'd like to see you explore... your "experimental" is accessible to me; i rather enjoy this side of your writing. Keep exploring your improvisational side; it's melodious, challenging, and quite well played. you keep impressing me... then again, what do i know! you get more hits in an hour than i do in a month, but i'm glad i am connected and can hear your work. This is my favorite. 5 stars!!!!!
@BloodTrucksandBeer Hey thank you! And I sure will. It's always an interesting challenge, but a fulfilling one! I wish I got more I have 4000 subs apparently, it's madness really. And thank you!
Dunno if you've ever seen a thing that was on rté last summer, can't remember the name of it but they sent a band into a studio and gave them 12 hours to write and record a song. Then the public voted on the best song. It was a deadly idea but they didn't focus on the actual writing process that much, they made it artsy and zaney with the camera shots. I've been fixed on the idea of bands making videos of their thought processes behind songs ever since =]
@SeanieBlahBlah Dude, that was epic haha and sounds amazing! :) I think that I mean if you can create any music you should be able to improv something somewhat coherent haha!
Is it wrong that I smiled when I realised I was the 69th viewer? Maybe... However, this is amazing, trying to make me fall in love with you? Jeeze, your epicness... :')
@garrethdavis Lol Like right now when I'm supposed to be doing some geography! xD It would probably be more productive if I picked up my guitar instead cause I'm crap and should practice more! =/ x
@garrethdavis lol it is! And my goal is to learn Turn This Sand to Gold because it is now one of my favourite songs along with #18 on the series! :P X
Well its not going to make it to any top 40 chart but that's doesn't mean it wasn't fun. Halfway through and bored, then the chorus - that bit was so funny.
Hey Garreth, as a jazz player i'm a big fan of improvised music. All music lives from the moment of performance, so i suppose even classical music is a bit improvised. Ok, improvising lyics is a lillte bid hard...anyway a lot of good moments in your performance... i like it!
@Mpoiuz Hey Uli! Ah you should be the master of improv at this stage then haha :D And thanks man. I totally agree. Music is about that moment when you find something which you never could again.
I really enjoyed this! and I can totally relate, it's nice to see that you can poke fun at yourself too. Love your work.

Hey Garreth, as a jazz player i'm a big fan of improvised music. All music lives from the moment of performance, so i suppose even classical music is a bit improvised. Ok, improvising lyics is a lillte bid hard...anyway a lot of good moments in your performance... i like it!
