Hassan Hajdi - Shred Guitar SECRET

[Egprod77]

No Hassan drinks the magical stroumpf soup for the power fingers...

[senz20]

Whowould of thought that drinking laundry detergent makes you shred!

[dreamwever87]

jason becker sounding with all that whammy in the phrasing! Good stuff!

[wufei33]

Il est tombé dans l'étrange boisson bleue quand il était petit.

[crassefrite]

big up hassan , en concert , sur scène avec ANGE c'est encore meilleur

[samdepontam]

Fuck fucking and all my digoutaje for mens and womens qui n'aiment pas ca. Fuck et Naadine de rotchild, la musique s'apprécie selon les humeurs, on dirait, pas en fonction de l'aspect artistique. Just do it, just make it, if you can. Bande de cons de juges

[samdepontam]

Fuck fucking and all my digoutaje for mens and womens qui n'aiment pas ca. Fuck et Naadine de rotchild

[jewelfewel]

i dont think i've ever seen anyone use the whammy bar that much for vibrato.

[some1islooking]

whats up with the juice breaks?

[senz20]

@some1islooking Dude, the jiuce breaks ar ethe secret!

[Commerenc]

Still can't believe he's got hair, now... ^^

You simply and positively rock, Hassan !

[rustynail2112]

I need some of that blue drink

[gatta124]

i can say he's definitly influenced by jason becker.

[ICreamsodAI]

hahaaa took me a second to get the joke xD nice

[Ooze68]

It's not fake, it's Hassan Hajdi, from Ange, a very famous French progressive rock band from the 70's.

[yairoka]

the style is near the one from gustavo guerra... check him out.

maybe he's the copier or gustavo is.

but this guy is far better... this is amazing!

peace :b

[raphexe]

@yairoka maybe they don't even know about each other. maybe they're both influenced by malmsteen or holdsworth.

[Commerenc]

@raphexe In fact, he's influenced greatly by both ! And by a shitload of other guitar genuises too. Hassan is freaking amazing !

[raphexe]

@Commerenc yep ! (MAI toi aussi ? ;) )

[Erik007able]

your awesome man for real. ive been playing for about 12yrs and would love to learn something from you. ecspecially your tapping skills

[Alexidivining]

Awesome impov man

[jacksonsoloist24]

Even when he's fucking around, still sounds better than half the players on youtube that think they can shred.

[highrollerzzz]

hey, it's Tony MacAlpine!

[lifeonmarss]

hahaha, so cool

[ponsaku6982]

LOL

[icyha0]

why this is fake?

[ibanezxiphos700]

i wish this wasnt a parody video cause it actually sounds good.

[grandi]

blue vodka? XD

[naraithsil]

Where do you get that blue drink?

[a4gospel]

Yeahhh! Hassan =D

Rock N' Roll' ♥

[0iGer0]

it's not only incredible, it's also unique and impossible !

[reygdoor]

you're amazing bro....and i got a name for this song 'ECSTASY IN BLUE'..

[0iGer0]

er ... man, he's kind of parodying shredders, that's all

[MGBoy100334]

Dude, you are frickin' great! And the video concept is exactly what I have been searching for so long: a "shred parody" parody!

Very very good :))

[Inveracity91]

:17-:25 was some of the sickest shit i ever heard does anyone know if its from any of his songs?

[0iGer0]

the famous joke is the blue liquid. It's like an humouristic Advertisement, Hassan sucks up his guitar, drinks some liquid and then blow the shit away.

[skatarest77]

macalpines brother??

[blaa757]

blue liquid sterioids

[allieno]

haha nice video and melodies

[ConnorShawMusic]

[IPawnNoobs]

Ah yes, Great lesson. I learned so much.

Fuck My Life.

[lightyagarmi]

....this just shows us a vid of a guy shredding a solo...stupid false misleading title

[staticxfrk]

this guy should practice more cause it sounds shitty in some parts

[Xmalibur]

That was part of the joke

[staticxfrk]

what joke? his guitar skills are a joke thats what you mean

[Xmalibur]

your a fucking retard

[Ysef]

fucking idiot

[straightjacketpyscho]

oh please you probably can't play anywhere near his level

[staticxfrk]

his level being beginer?

[markandbev]

you cocksucker

[taopainvin]

i know this song is one of malmsteen but i don't know what is the name of this, can you help me??

[Aroaraborialis]

I think it's "I am a viking"

[ktakeshi17]

the secret is gatorade XD

[Sudds05]

And the secret is....????

[Philmen]

THE BLUE LIQUID IN BOTTLE !

[Teetshirts]

i think the secret must be in that blue stuff he's drinking!

[typedeaf]

Nice playing, and funny.

[dannydmangillz]

how do you tap that well? plz reply

[guitar91guitar]

black man can play!!! god damn! (if it was really recorded well and no mistakes this would be freakin amazing!) cross between yngwie and vai.. simply awesome

[Enity7]

He doesnt remind me of any of those, but he plays alot like Tony MacAlpine

[fabman7]

LAWL @ his butt buddy giving him a drink of some faggy blue drink :D

[circleofpit]

[ReciProcity2]

Chauffe marcel !!!

[dimebucker]

[jimbobplaysbass]

that tapping stuff was intense!

[shibobajohnson]

[atrickpay11]

Wicked tremolo bar work!

[VEROSFP]

BRAVO HASSAN!

[Kenshinhina]

lmfao that was freaking Hilarious! Good Job guys! xD nice shred

[Surgicalshred]

Good stuff, keep it up. That was funny as hell with the drink too, by the way!

[mustang517]

[senz20]

[ICreamsodAI]

[senz20]

lol i know

[senz20]

its mojo in a bottle

[bitcheznhos]

nice scales, now wheres the soul

[AustinFenderStrat]

Very much like Tony Macalpine great stuff bro.

[georizzo]

what did he say in the beginning?

[metallyman]

3 - 4 (in french : trois - quatre)

[farangkeenok]

very cool and unique style

[Shady9696]

the secret is in that blue stuff :D

awesome man msA u rock :)

[theallteldodge]

THE BLUE JUICE RULES

[Soldano88]

Sick! You rule bro!

[harmonizethelord9]

lmao did he just drink detergent

[Buyakaasha]

are you serious? very good

[ChrisG1216]

I need some of that blue stuff

[chck88athlte]

that was awsome and funny

[JURGMANDR]

stop it. just stop it. this hurts my brain.

[0iGer0]

it's a 9000 euros PRS with especially beautiful maple fingerboard (so i guess around 9000 dollars too) ... the funniest thing is the great deal he did. He ended by earning 300 :D, didnt spend a cents.

[0iGer0]

OOOOH YEAH, i get it, LOOOOL. they guys at this school told me about a blue liquid, now i get it. In fact when he starts playing like shit, they give him a special drink that powers up his capacities ^^ ... it's like a fancy commercial show ^^

[synth002]

You wana know the secret to shred guitar?! DECENT BENDS AND VIBRATO (INC WHAMMY BAR)

[0iGer0]

i gotta agree his bends and vibrato and kinda ... disgusting. Anyway, i've seen him playing in front of me, on that chair in that room and it's fucking impressive. i had to improvise for him, he froze me the motherfucker

[synth002]

Yeah I get where your comming from definatly, I would have gone for it though lol!

[0iGer0]

well i finally got my improvisation finally, after 30 minutes or something ^^. i let myself go on the guitar when i reconnected my brain to my soul ^^, cause i had no idea what to play, nothing came through ... stress you up !

[synth002]

I know what you mean man, I am pleased that there are others who know that its a very spiritual experience. I see so many people who just don't seem to pour their heart and soul into they're playing, some of them are great at guitar too.

[dmlled]

nice. not boring at all

[ioabito]

great,awesome but especially fantastic

[JcShredder]

tony mcalpine

[CTROCK]

sound good man. check me out CTROCK THE HIP HOP ROCK GUITAR ARTIST

[JVCStratocaster]

ahahahaha it's funny xDD

[KyleWhittom]

anabolic arpeggio steriods

[808wiz]

do you sell the blue kryptonite? i usually just take another bong hit!!! OMG :o yngwie would be proud

[juicyj56]

awsome very clean

[MetalHeadTy]

Hey man what kind of guitar is that and what kind of trem bar is on it ?

[staticxfrk]

PRS guitar

[canadaman50]

Red Bull works for playing fast! hahaha, probably just the placebo effect but I've made red bull a pre-show ritual.

[StupidIdiot12345]

That seems like it would only work if muscle spasms were useful in speed picking (I don't think they are...) Red Bull makes you jittery doesn't it?

[canadaman50]

it doesn't make me jittery at all. I dunno maybe different effects for different people. Like I said, it's only a placebo but whenever I drink that shit I always feel like my playing is more fluid.

It was just one time I drank it and sounded good and it happened a couple more times. I know it doesn't REALLY do anything but me and my buddies always joke about it

[rockwizclown]

steriods? red bull? wtf its in that bottle it is OBVIOUSLY the secret lol

[ultimatemegadethfan]

It's probably liquid practice time...

[rockwizclown]

gotta get me some of that!!!

[bucsareawesome]

Where do u buy that?

[Philmen]

are you serious "bucsareawesome" ?

[FestivalFreak]

guess the guy just ran out of juice, cmon it happens u need ur relentless then we;ll be talkin haha

[Philmen]

Superbe : 10 stars !

[GarrysModPro]

nice, but horribly out of time

[Idiotcorrector]

the answer is red bull

[bobman2310]

the secret is

POWER THIRST!!!!!! IT GIVES YOU GRATOUATIOUS AMMOUNTS OF ENERGY!!!!!

[wilfriedherman]

bravo Hassan ! quand je dis que tu est la réincarnation de Randy Rhoads, je me trompe un peu, tu le surpasse en fait !

amitiés au Père

[jdalynews]

That secret is..... tapping. we know

[bitcheznhos]

it was real good but too many arps over and over again.

[yngwiemalmsteen8]

wonderfull

[davrod610]

That drink has steroids..ha ha ha great vid and great playing,love the arpeggios.

[GIULIO19]

the secret is...THAT DRINK!

[GaryEddyEdwards]

some FANTASTIC playing..excellent sweeping taps & the feel is awesome...That neck looks like it feels like butter to play..amazing guitarist!!Not just a shredder but good melodies too..especially the latin-esque feel

[punkcheck]

the secret is hes a double threat. a musician ANd a comedian. hahahahaha very funny. seriously.

[bicmed88]

lol that was funny, when he started missing the fretboard...i was like "huh!" Then he just revitalised with some shred juice! Thats great! I want some! Amazing playing, I love the octive displacements at 3:00ish Great vid, 5 from me!

[fkthsh]

lol, Im sitting here like a dud wondering when the secret will be revealed. You know what? he did give us the secret, the secret is that we will never learn how to play that fast, you either have IT or you don't.

[ioabito]

the best

[str4to]

Ton jeu au vibrato ressemble fort à celui de Jason Becker...

Mais quelle est cette boisson dopante dont tout le monde rêve ??? :)

Excellent (j'adore Ange)

[milleralive]

tell you what, that's one bad motherfucker.

[epicus83]

Nice, really really nice.

[teeeebow]

For knowing the man, I can assure you that this video was made mainly for fun!

As you can tell he is a great fan of Allan Holdsworth but is the guitarist of 'Ange' a legendary progressive rock band (well, in France) and he certainly has a great experience of live performance and a great taste in phrasing!

So consider this improvisation on Malmsteen 'I'm a viking' backing track as shredding for fun =)

Ps: the guitar is a special edition PRS, nice huh?

Hassan t'es le meilleur!!

[Playing0The0Angel]

what are youn driking ? gatorade (that blue thing in the bottle)?

also: nice playing but... what's the secret?

[Knudkat]

okay.......

What's the secret?

[mrjam00]

too much whammy

but very good

[AlixSpawn]

Quel dommage que cette vidéo ne montre pas l'humour sarcastique et extrêment second degrès d'Hassan.

Certains ici, Anglophone, ont déposé un commentaires qui est totalement hors sujet à cause de cette incompréhension. Hassan est l'un des meilleurs guitaristes Français. Il joue avec "Ange" qui est l'un des goupes cultes Français dans le style Progressif, et qui fut l'un des plus connus avec d'autres tels que Magma, ou encore HF Thiefaine.

[Tjordalv]

Sounds alot like Becker! And thats good.

Cool with the juice, where do I get that shit? It was amazing! xD

[NaitsabesWinklersson]

What's that guitar?

[MrJesus666]

tis a prs

[katanakiller]

this was uploaded on my birthday ! yay!

[coolguit]

Absolutely amazing play. Fast and accurate. On the top of it, the tone is very unique. I hope he could limit the use of whammy bar a little. Other than that, super nice play!

[Durgeofcerberus]

hes just doing arpeggios. id like to see some improv

[smurfsex]

dude put that whammy bar up your ass and play something that doesnt sound like a dying pig in heat!!!!!!!! looool

[yakokucheLONDON]

the guy plays amaizing but he need rutine playing with a band from time to time seems to be missing the rythem .music is not just fingers but a head to think properly as well

[ISKEETCHOCOLATE]

dudes straight sick with it

[cwes7675]

crunk juice? is that the secret? lol

[thirstforpeace]

omg! i love the look on his face at 1:27! its freaking priceless! but he's pretty shred.

[omgshredderw00t]

knowing how to play fast is great, but the best thing in my opinion is that you can change the moods by playing fast, slow, legato, staccato, whatever. this was great skillful playing but the mood didnt change at all. quite dry sounding

[WTaF]

At the beginning of the video it sounded alot like "I am a Viking" by "Yngwie Malmsteen"

[tkdbender]

some skill there, but very dry sounding...were is the soul!?

my sister can type better then this.

sounds to random no melody

[keith101guitar]

amazing. pure beauty. :)

[zodiacie]

I like it. But SRV any time

[Juan2611]

yeah... he plays ok... but not excellent... repeating the same licks around the backingtrack is not a big deal... anyhow I liked it

[BabyEvil1]

I'm not into shredding, but I love this guy's sense of humour. Excellent!

[quisp2112]

i need to get a hold of some of the blue stuff that's in the bottle. Every time he started to fall apart he just took a swig of that stuff and he was right back on point. That's the SECRET!

[stratocasterockz]

Black Power!

[InnerSilence123]

i want some of that drink too

[thirstforpeace]

what a show off at 3:15 lol. hes still aweomse tho.

[hybridtraffic]

the secret you have to commit suicide by drinking cloth detergent

[fbar58]

you play exactly..... like steve wai... look how you hold your pick and you tap.... and just listen... steve vai

[StlThrash]

no he does not

[cobhc7]

no he does not.

[thestrugglewithin]

so...HOW was that shown HOW to play fast?

idiot.

[knives14344]

if thats the secret where can I buy it je je je je

[ramzi419]

ur pretty fast nd well trained but dude ur missin smthin, ur missin the most important essence of music, Emotion, i rly dnt feel ur solos man. anyone can shred like zakk wilde or led zepplin but jst nt as beutiful...play guitar with ur heart, nt fingers, p.s: i am not gay, lol..jst statin the facts.

[thestrugglewithin]

ditto, hendrix used to describe the changes in songs like "ok ok now, play like, 'the ocean'" he applied vision that induced emotions, the very emotions that one can feel through the music. brilliant.

[IronMaiden0AcesHigh]

no offence but hendrix took LSD....

[thestrugglewithin]

yea and he also took me into the stratosphere of music! lol

yea and he also took other stuff too..bummer.

[theredderred]

Very true. Music does'nt come from your fingers, it comes from your mind.

[henryrollins666]

the person below needs to be given a head injury... this guy is fcuking great

[majav15mg]

bad very bad -_- horrible

[Eskaparate]

the title of this video is wrong, your a very good guitar player but wheres the secret, you never shared it you just show it dude!!! we are not as good as you!!! we cant just follow what youre doing anyways youre great!!!!!!

[r]

The secret is clearly the magical blue drink...

...now if only we knew what it was...
