Apocalypse in 9/8

[4umtator]

I just saw the video of your classical guitar transcription of Firth of Frith. This transcription is right on the money and perfectly executed. Oh yeah, you can probably get drums and the lazer beam cheap on Ebay! Haha! I learned this a long time ago, played most of it five positions higher, and unfortunately long forgotten it. Thanks for doing this!

[hyperboreal]

@4umtator

haha, never checked that on eBay, thanks. cheers mate.

[Bryantn3]

BRAVO!

[djdjany]

Yeeeeeah man,you're great !

[AngelOfDeath1897]

Mind. Blown.

Awesome playing man, I'm working on learning Return of the Giant Hogweed and even that's a feat for me =P

[enhenenhen]

great job

[JackBlair2]

Awesome.

[JackBlair2]

@neverforgotrock He played it to tempo.

[Toban1546]

FELICIDADES!!!!! Es una maravilla la transcripción a guitarra y la hermosa ejecución. Cuando escucho algo como lo que hiciste, creo que el mundo tiene sentido desde su origen. Un fuerte abrazo!

[elisafab]

It sound very, very nice, but I'm pretty sure the first chord (at 0:29) should have been a minor, not a major???

[RonG40]

Bravo! I was expecting some fuzzed out shredder take on this but instead got some cleanly played picking and strumming that displayed the beauty of the SONG itself! Take a bow! Great stuff!

[lecheenpolvo]

CLAP CLAP CLAP!!!!! Pulgares MUUUUY arriba!!!

[hyperboreal]

@neverforgotrock

Agreed, thanks man.

[Sergione59]

Grande veramente bravo!

[OurBrainHurtsALot]

a la madre, no puedo creer lo bien que se oye, gran trabajo

[pinkfloydrule27]

wow i clicked on this video expecting you too be abit of a pompous douche (just because people that translate keyboard solos too guitar normally are) but you did it brilliantly you made it sound right and did a really good job

[hyperboreal]

@pinkfloydrule27

:D Thanks, I'm actually working on another keyboard solo at the moment.

And I hope people don't get that impression, I love playing those parts!

[TranquilAutumn]

Would also love to get a Tab of this one :D

[TranquilAutumn]

Awesome cover. But I'd prefer to hear it on a distorted guitar.

[Jig1123]

Wooooo! <3

Always happy to hear more Genesis.

[julyvalls]

esta increible realmente genial buenisimo lo del efecto estereo y lo de la repeticion genial ( ademas de la increible interpretacion por supuesto ;)*****

[hyperboreal]

Muchas gracias July, espero también que te guste mi próximo video, tocaré algo de Howe ;)

[julyvalls]

jajajaja genial lo escuchare con mucho gusto.

[troubleclef]

that's one badass looking box. :D imagine somebody working out the keyboard solo for guitar! but you did it, brother. excellent. groovy stereo tricks too.

[hyperboreal]

Thanks Tony!

[westrokker]

[zxcdave]

Love it!

[ozoshah]

hyperboreal always excellent

[amccann7]

thia is brilliant; you never fail to impress.

~Amy

[hyperboreal]

Hehe, yeah, we could call it something like "Virtual Genesis" :p Thank you Amy, you're the best.

[bernich88]

Supreme! Hyperboreal :D

[luizfelipels7]

fantastic !

[hyperboreal]

Bueno, todavía tengo que adaptarme, la verdad es que no suelo tocar mucha guitarra eléctrica. Además mis dedos son un poco ceporrones y me suelen estorbar cuando ando por la parte baja del mástil :)

Gracias Antonio. A seguir disfrutando por mucho tiempo con ese álbum.

[xberserkx]

this is so awesome, you've probably been asked this a bunch of times but what kind of guitar is that? It's pretty sexy

[hyperboreal]

Hi, it's a Parker P-42. Cool design, it reminds of those eccentric guitars that Prince used to play back in the 80's.

[gardenwall07]

ahhhhhhh !!! great great job alex..!! if only i had little more spare time i'd add the drums track with my roland but currently it's almost impossible to me..maybe in the future!! :-).. the new toy is the guitar or the effect?

[hyperboreal]

Grazie Sandro. The toy is the guitar, but I wanted to play this live through a specific guitar effects processor software. I couldn't configure the thing properly on my system so the effects had to be done on "post-production" with the usual audio editor (not really the sound I was hoping for). Anyway, I'll try to work on that for next videos.

[haimcito]

great job

[alegareca]

Aaaaaaaaaaawesome!!!!!!!

[KingXanadu]

This is incredible!

[hyperboreal]

Thank you KingXanadu.

[miaris]

You nailed it, Alex!

Wow!

But the link to the original audio recording doesn't work.. its no sound..

[hyperboreal]

Thank you Mia. I don't have any problem with the link, you can try again if you want via website. The link to that is at my YT channel page.

[gazzo45]

Alex, you are truly amazing; what an inspired decision you made to play Tony's keyboard solo on guitar! Great version and a joy to hear.

[hyperboreal]

Those Banks solos are always a blast. Thank you gazzo.

[SY5TEM69]

amazing!! that has always been one of my favorites!great job!

[centralscrutinizer9]

excellent playing Alex certainly would not expect to see that part played on a guitar

the compressed quelching is a mp3 flaw on this site wav files seem to do better but they are very large maybe one day they will fix the problem

[hyperboreal]

Hey Russell, thanks so much. That compression is really a downer, I'll have to try to upload in .wav even if it takes so long.

Thanks for the tip.

[diaventisei]

bravissimo! :D

[neonbreon]

sweet

[checkmatehehe]

Awesome.

[chris21125150]

Haha!!!!!!!!!!!! That was brilliant, Hyp!!!!!!!!! Loved it so much. I'm favoriting this one. Great job, more Genesis!!!!!! I've gotta watch this again!

[hyperboreal]

Hehe, thanks man. I was expecting you would upload this some day. Perhaps there's still hope for a future project of yours with the whole epic. Glad you liked the video Chris. Take care.

[gazzo45]

Alex, got to agree with Chris - your post is amazing!

And Chris, is it asking too much for you to do Supper's Ready in its entirety one day? :-)

[ProgMom67]

Oh cool! I get to be the first to comment on this! One of my favorite pieces of music of ALL times here. Great job Alex and nice Parker guitar! Can't imagine learning this on guitar... whew...

[hyperboreal]

Thank you ProgMom, it was big fun to do. Shame for the audio...

[ProgMom67]

Too mesmerized by your playing to notice any audio imperfections!

[hyperboreal]

You're very sweet, keep rocking in your lovely channel!
