Irene Ketikidi - Rambler (Guitar Idol 2011)

[jbankens5150]

You have a unique sound, all on your own. Such a rarity. Wonderful! Fantastic vibrato. You will definitely be an incredible session/touring musician. Best wishes to you!

[makmak27]

You are the best!!!! Synexise tin foveri douleia pou kaneis!!!

[Giaci8914]

it's so ..sonic! like your style!

[DrWrongPaul]

WTF !!!

[DadGuitarJW]

Yeah !!! You Rock Irene !!

The progression of your music sounds like Jun Senoue !!!!

Your riff tone is great too, but I like a little bit less your solo tone. Anyway, I like....

Perfect pinch harmonics...... It's really Senoue inspired ! You totally catch his style !

[fredykharpa]

sos una wira hija de puta............ sos buena tacando la guitarra............ me tendras que enseñar a tocar la guitarra........ jejejejej saludos de guatemala..........

[kostisp1990]

νομίζω ότι πρέπει να σαι right now η καλύτερη(από πάσα άποψη) ελληνίδα female guitar player!!μπράβο σου για την υπομονή την αυτοσυγκέντρωση και την μελέτη!!

[Solidy]

Nice Vibratos!

[IbanezShredderMan]

Really love your style. I don't know if it's just your tone, or if it's youtube (because of their terrible audio capabilities), but try brightening your tone a bit more :D

Overall great playing, your style/playing is like Joe Satriani's, and your actually the first person I've ever seen to perfectly pull of bends in your phrasing.

Loving the sonic shirt too :D

[Ireneket]

@IbanezShredderMan Thanks so much! Yes it could be youtube, plus the fact that this is a demo recording with my old home studio equipment and very roughtly mixed/mastered! The final album version will be 20 times better at least.

[NekronSX]

Dat Sonic T-Shirt !!

AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!

[ItzR3zR4pt0r]

finally, a guitarist that knows how to properly execute vibrato, great playing

[Ireneket]

@ItzR3zR4pt0r really appreciate this, i do take pride in my vibrato so it really means a lot man!

[TheSonsofHorusx]

sonic!!!

[6StringHawk1982]

Awesome solo!!!!!! I love how you pick two different pinch harmonics on your bends so perfectly each time! Thats tough shit to do lol! Its the little things sometimes ;)

[Joselo1693]

Is that Joe Satriani's guitar?? Nice playing btw =) pretty cool phrasing

[shadowoftheshire]

COOL ! ive been watching vids like this for a few hours now and your phrasing is way better than the rest!

[xXokcoolXx]

[thegodphreaker]

This girl rocks.

[robibm2003]

That was some guitar playing goodness right there!

[tastytasters]

Don't see many skilled girl guitarists out there. Not on youtube even for that matter, and you are one of those exceptions along with that Korean guitar player Su i think? the one who plays the Funk music doing a guitar ad i think on this site. Very legit attempt for guitar idol, keep doing what you do :).

[Ireneket]

@tastytasters nice thanks!!

[xudeen]

wow, wonderful skills, you go girl!!

[LarcherESP]

The sonic shirt is badass.

[johndcofdc]

Great playing. You sound like a mix of Petrucci and Satriani. Your tone is killer and your playing is flawless. Nice to see the ladies kicking our asses once in a while.

The two people who disliked this video were dropped on their heads at birth!

[Ireneket]

@johndcofdc haha thanks John, you're guessing my influences correctly by the way!

[kpibaras]

very nice song!! congrats!

the first guitarrist girl i c taht really rocks!

[jdog90000]

When's the album coming out??? I can't wait!

[Ireneket]

@jdog90000 haha me neither my friend, well that should be by the end of 2011 at some point! I will keep you posted cheers

[diCeanddiMe757]

are you greek?

[Ireneket]

@diCeanddiMe757 yes

[Lavietto]

wow really good !! nice axe !! and t shirt and awesome playing as well! :)

[00gZa]

i forgot to comment on the AWESOME t-shirt :)

[00gZa]

Wow.. I came across this clip a few days ago and watched it at least twice a day since! So catchy and extremely tight playing, love the harmonics/squeals :)

Melody is so well written.

Well done!!!

[Ireneket]

@00gZa Very happy to hear that, cheers!

[spooner1957]

awesome playing, sick chops, sweet tone, great melody. you're an amazing player!

[Ireneket]

@spooner1957 cheers, all the best comments i could get! thank you

[subedec]

Very Gooooooood! With this solo you champion!!!

[Sawltrini]

this was aweesome and the coolest part the sonic t-shirt

[Ireneket]

@danfretland thank you so much for all the video comments!

[AlexACnowon]

great!

[dziglavs]

Nice playing,and something creative for a change,phrase of the song stays in my head whole day.

[Ireneket]

@dziglavs melodies play a major role in my writing, really glad you appreciate it!

[jamesgtr2002]

nice shot!!! your on fire!!! keep on rockin!!

[judus33wyde]

good

[dtfan2010]

Cool song Irene !

Maybe a toss-up between you and Pop Woravit....alot of great competition this year .

[tastytasters]

I love how the guitar solo in the song is subtle enough to say "I iz not wankery lolz shreddd" but is still enough to project more than sufficient skill. Nice runs, solid construction, and overall very very good. Just a tad bit redundant on the main theme sound but meh, got me nodding along to the beat :)

[keegatykeeg16]

i think i just fell in love with your guitar playing.

honsetly, SO wicked.

[Ireneket]

@keegatykeeg16 very sweet comment, thank you

[metal4shred]

Nice! I hear Satch and Eric Johnson influences.

[Ireneket]

@metal4shred it's an honour, both amazing players..

[chauman10102004]

feels like joe satriani !

[Ireneket]

@chauman10102004 feels alright then !

[Pearlman100]

Very cool! You freakin jam!

[aunlecram]

Hey great, also see this man called "Marcel Jaramillo"...

[Ireneket]

@aunlecram cheers, yeah i did, he has a really nice blues rock tone!

[satchbooggy]

thats an awesome guitar track, its VERY listenable. love how you tip the old hat to george lynch with the slide vibrato at :47 Long live ibanez and sonic the hedgehog! haha

[Ireneket]

@satchbooggy cheers that's the best thing to hear.. well to be honest i've seen a lot of bass players do this kind of vibrato and thought i'd give it a shot on the guitar.. then realised howe and lynch favour that as well..

[MissMisstreater]

Irene, we need a London based G3!!! haha

[Ireneket]

@MissMisstreater we do indeed!! i'm in, who's the 3rd ;)

[TheDougCartwright]

@Ireneket Obviously it's me, worried you had to ask!! \m/

[Ireneket]

@TheDougCartwright My deep apologies mister, I should have thought twice ;)

[Ireneket]

@dervit Much appreciated, no it's Greek ;)

[dervit]

@Ireneket

Also love those funky pinch harmonics.

Favorited.

[coupeturbo69]

Yeaahh is fantastic

[TheAlexEG]

Amazing ...... would definitely buy the album !!

[Ireneket]

@TheAlexEG that's great i'll keep you posted!

[Maggomann]

Hey you are impressive! Would be awesome to know a typical training Session of yours! Give us your secret :D

[Ireneket]

@Maggomann ha thanks.. well if you can call it a secret :), a typical session would be picking/legato/sweeping/tappin­g for 30 mins each technique, 5 days a week (but 30 real minutes-no water/toilet/any other breaks whatsoever :p) other than that just create melodies that are in my head really!

[Maggomann]

@Maggomann

wow thx for your fast response! Thats what i call discipline.. your music is an inspiration, thx for your simple but obviously good plan! rock on! ^.^

[fatthead360]
