Blitz Chess Commentary Music feat. hackslayer16 - alec-805(FM)

Ruy Lopez - Steintz variation? I think...
1) avoid exchanges when you are the side with more space
2) in king's indian type positions with closed centre, generally white goes for the kingside and black goes for the queenside
3) avoid giving your opponent counterplay when you have a strong positional edge and always watch out for tactics. Hackslayer told me he wanted the "free" pawn on f5, turns out it wasn't so free :(

Song name - Maurice Ravel. Pavane pour une infante défunte.

Oh snap! You picked my recommendation for the music! :)

@samirhossain yup I did :D, thanks for the link btw, at first I didn't know who Maurice Ravel is but after listening to a few of his other songs, I'd have to agree he's quite something gentilguy

Cool video as always, Bindi.

Here's one of my favourite classical works (songs by definition have singing). Its 12 mins (perfect for blitz commentary) and its about a River in the Czech Republic. It gets a bit louder at the 1:30 min : p

The Moldau - by Bedrich Smetana

Maurice Ravel, I just cannot say how much I love this man's music...
