Samurai Champloo - Aruarian Dance (take 1)

[cancho23]

Agree, not the best performance but the right chords! Thanks a lot!

[PinkyPainVids]

And don't use nylon strings. Please.

Get Martin acoustics.

[PinkyPainVids]

You got all the notes write. Kudos.

Now redo it. Lol.

[TranceCore3]

Even though this isn't a perfect play, you're closer than all of the other videos out there. I hope you do a re recording, because that's pretty good.

[BboyN3wbi3]

r.i.p nujabes

[wtfeezey]

que the dope ass drum beat haha, very well done keep up the progress.

[8motozero8]

Thank you so much for all your information!!! I would have never thought I could play this song, but after 4 hours with your tab and my classical from Okinawa, I can almost keep up with you and sounds like a dream! I tuned the way it said C#,F#,B,E,G#,C#,, and that sounded right on! Very Slack Key! I really like your site, lotta good music and hard work. Thank you sooooo much! Mahalo Nui Loa!

ps. this song has been ingrained in me for the past 5 or so years so that made it easy to pluck

[velcroninja07]

very good cover man. The only part that is wrong is the chord at 0:19

On the 3rd string, it should always stay on the 4th fret. It makes a better chord. I play everything by ear so I know it's right =)

Other than that 5 stars!

[9EsPaDa]

niceeee

[Jfrtav]

Your playing is very good but try keeping up with the tempo !

[Nowe105]

nice man 5/5 and subscribed im trying to learn this to just got a 38 inch acoustic need to tune it thx for the help

[simpleminded4]

i love this song....

if i had the time, i would totally pick up guitar lessons just to learn this song augh!

[SoulReaperKidX]

Nice but try to slow it down

[NatedawgNtotheG]

nice job dude sounds just it

[TTEREVE]

wow this song is so dam hard to play

[bruddahkimo]

I must say thank you for the tabs, from what I can tell after trying it, they're dead on with the actual piece by Nujabes. Im still kind of curious as to how you found out about the artist's detuning. I was still sort of shocked by how old you after reading the forum.

[gedtag]

I heard a low C# (lower than the normal low E in standard tuning) at measure two in the original piece, so it must be detuned somehow. (Or it could have been a 7-string guitar, but since I don't have one of those, I decided to do a 6-string guitar tab). I tried to see if a drop C# tuning would work, but it was too difficult to play. In the forum it was suggested to try to detune all the strings down 3 half steps. And so I tried that, and it work out.

[awaldoster]

its not

im 100% sure its regular tuning :D

i promise.

[heeh2]

fucking flawless picking technique

[romanticpacifist]

you played it perfectly to me D:

i want to learn to play this song for my guitar class :]

[Betterbegood92]

you´re really good at this song ;) I wanna learn!

[abcdef039]

that was cool. can u play "you" by Kazami on the guitar?

[freebeedinasour]

you should tighten up the tunning a little, a bit off. otherwise, good job!

[suckafish80]

Whaaaaaat?

Did you transcribe all that stuff on your website yourself?

You know a lot about music if ya did man!

[bdeguz]

is this standard tuning?

[xflowx]

no, i don't think so.

my guess: c#

[JSkunk22]

This is painful to watch :'(

[JaeTee5991]

dam ,how did nujabes play it soooo good?

[rlndgoerignoie]

nujabes doesnt use real instruments to make his songs

[JaeTee5991]

um i think that i know that. i dont use real instruments when i make a beat. i was saying that he plays it well in whatever program he's using.

[JaeTee5991]

and how tha fuck do u know that? are u t-bagging him tha whole time he's makin tha beat?

[rlndgoerignoie]

JaeTee5991,

no need to start cussing. i was just giving you information that was apparently wrong referring to your question. and no, i wasnt t-bagging anyone.

[JaeTee5991]

ok im sorry about that. i was having a bad day. but dou have a myspace page or something?

[213rooster]

so he samples? i thought he played instruments.

[penguin902]

nah. all samples.

[rvasquez6089]

he might have composed the song and had a studio instrumentalist play it for him, we may never know

[edudied]

beautiful

[anatomyx4]

some parts are played too quickly, and others too slowly.

nice cover though.

[KaiKuto1]

The songs very nice, your a really good player! ^^

[XxGomezxX]

It's not that bad.

You've got the meoldy down..you just need to work on the first part and get the rhythm down...

But other than that major kudos, bud.

[meztag]

[supastaroftokyo]

your really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[NooBerTuber]

been lookin for a good clip of this song and finally found yours.. but it looks like I need some tuning before I play.. wut is the basic tuning? half steps down? please fill me in!! btw great job with the song.. i know the tempo is a little challenging!

[gedtag]

You detune each string 3 half steps down (if you want to be in the same key as the OST).

[simplydeep2009]

your amazing!

[Sikibrada]

[Ayumex118]

i really wanna play this song some day..

how long did it take you to learn it?

[gedtag]

It took me a couple of days just to know what to play. But playing it smoothly and in tempo, I'm still working on that.

[JL0vely]

niceeeeeeeeee and to all the hatas get off tha fuckin computer and go pick up a hobbie, stop hatin on da man

[bubblleboi]

omg gedtag, ur my hero cuz the only reason in decided to learn and stick with other guitar songs AND actually learn myself to play the guitar was from u so keep it up and dont let those stupid haters get to u because it must have taken a shitlong time to transcribe this song by ear AND transcribe all the other instruments for it i thank u for that because someday i will tell my highschool band to play it.

[pinoypinay]

Too fucking awesome.

To those haters out there:

- It's detuned 3 frets.

- He pretty much transcribed this himself. Give him credit for that

- Let's see you play this song.

[joonboy]

fucking tune your guitar

[ayeishjay]

it looks like you tuned your guitar 2 tabs down

[shywings]

You are the best!

[3rdEyeVision]

[RedNeagan]

BEAUTIFUL! You covered a Samurai Champloo! AWESOMENESS!

[Flip91]

Nicely done...

Needs work but still great...

[bboynawm]

buy aa real guitar... or real strings. that way it wont sound so bad.. and dont play it so as fast. you ruin the song that way, great effort thou

[joonboy]

[stuntwatcher]

[chjar]

Nice, some mistakes and sometimes you pause a bit too long.

[tomicachu]

[xfranjavierx]

[DelusionalelGuero]

haha thank you good sir. and i have the same problem. As i'm sure youve noticed i dont play it very smoothely... but maybe oneday... oneday... hahaha thanks for checking it out and thanks for transcribing it!

[DelusionalelGuero]

lol! My friend (weirdlyspazoid) sent me the link for the Nujabes tabs. So anyways, i took like a week and a half to learn it and i posted it today. Unfortunately my camera doesnt have very much memory, so i had to settle with only doing parts ot the song. i hope you like it!!!

[weirdlyspazoid]

took you a week and a half and somehow you still found time to give a shoutout haha

why am i mentioned again? its not like i know the dude @.@;

[weirdlyspazoid]

im not sure how this ended up down here but i was referring to Delusional's message ^.^

[KimJohannes]

That is great man, but I think the original is a little faster, I am too trying to learn this, very beutifull song.

[gedtag]

Let's see a video when you got it!

[kat91291]

Hey, you have it but you just need more practice. I like how you do the beginning in some parts and you REALLY did a great job on the middle! Love it! ^_^

[indongga]

is this the detuned version or is the tuning normal?

[gedtag]

This is the detuned version.

[weirdlyspazoid]

dude, could u possibly post the tabs for this song?? been meaning to learn it by hindered by lack of knowledge haha. much appreciated if u can! message me if thats possible thanks.

[gedtag]

You can check out my tab of this piece in my website.

http://home.comcast.net/~gedla­r/

What I play in the video and what's played in the tab are different (the tab is the less updated version). There are only two differences. 1) I've done an alternate fingering at measure 35-36. 2) The tab at measure 6 is D7, but in the video I played D7(flat 5). So instead of playing the 2nd fret of the 3rd string, it should be the 1st fret of the 3rd string

[aeris1213]

hehe sorry but ur pretty damn sexy w/ that guitar if i may say so..nothin like a guy who can play guitar..^_^

[ZabuKashiMugenLuvr]

Oh wow. You're pretty good, a little bit more practice and you'd probably have it down pat. That is such a pretty song, and it sounds heavenly on a guitar. Keep it up! ^^
