the bends were my attempt at quarter-tones because i have been trying to transulate some indian scales to guitar, so they are kinda purposefully off, but i still need to work on thise more. I agree that the random shredding is a bit too much and this is probably too fast for it sound good and clean. I need a better way to keep the bass string going during those parts, but i thought i would try something different. Thanks fatjack

decent attempt, but indian quarter-tones are quite difficult on guitar (if only sitars were cheaper!) next time include some indian scales in your lead licks... i keep telling myself i'm gonna write a song harmonized completely on the harmonic minor scale (the most indian of western scales), but im just so darn lazy... and i'd need to come up with some cool effects...

Where do you learn the harmonic minor scale? I kinda want to find a book or something with them?

one more thing, why isn't your iuma site working?

juineaux · Post by **juineaux** » Wed Jul 23, 2003 8:48 pm

everything that I have up on iuma still works, but its not letting me upload anything new. It says i cant upload anything becuase they are changing something on the actuall website, something with the servers...(?), but i thought it was down for everybody? hmm, you got it to work?
its been down for about a month or so for me
