"This Is What They Call Rock'n'Roll" by guitar player and producer Ruggero Catania available on Bandcamp

I always wanted to be able to write a song shorter than 1'30". 
This song has been sleeping in my hard drive for years.

But today the weather is hot and so am I. Enjoy

   

I'm Your Father - First song on Bandcamp for the guitar player and producer Ruggero Catania

I decided to bring to life some songs stacked in my hard disc for too many years waiting for the right project.

The un-romantic name for this series is "Emptying HDs"

Fin de la collaboration entre Ruggero Catania et Romano Nervoso

Je ne serai pas sur scène avec Romano Nervoso ce soir.
Il y a parfois des choses dans la vie qui vont dans une direction que c’est pas la direction attendue et espérée.
C’est bien le cas.
La collaboration entre moi et Romano Nervoso arrive donc à la fin. Les raisons, on pourrait en parler pour des heures, mais ce ne sont pas des raisons intéressantes ou importantes pour ceux qui nous suivent.

Je veux donc remercier les gens qui ont rendu cool ces années de rock’n’roll. Le public d’abord, les fans, les techniciens, les musiciens, les salles de concerts, les festival, les organisateurs, les labels, attachés de presse, les booking agents, promoteurs, la crew des concerts, les studios et les autres. I care about you all. I really do.

Je remercie également les Romanos passés, présents et futurs et je souhaite au groupe une bonne continuation.

Moi, j'arrête pas la musique, au contraire, je suis sur plusieurs projets.
Si vous lisez ça, vous savez où me trouver.
A bientôt.

BIAS FX 2 LE Giveaway - How to save money buying original plug-in

Hi there, maybe you know I'm a huge fan of grabbing offers when I can.

In particular, free LE editions giveaways (or for a very small fee, or coming as a bundle with your hardware/software) allow you to save big money in the future, upgrading from LE version to full version even years later, when the Black Friday madness (or what else) comes.
There are several offers throughout the year, just subscribe to the mailing list of the products you're waiting for to be sure not to miss the offer. And be patient.
That's the way I collected plugins and software for many thousands of dollars value, at a fraction of the cost, from 1/4 up to 1/10 (yes, a tenth!) of the retail price.

Also, LE versions could be all that you need if you're not "a professional doing it for living".
Even if you can't go deep into programming details, there is often enough room to have some fun end record pretty decent stuff.

This one is a perfect example

Hurry up!

Bohemian Rhapsody guitar solo MADE EASY - tutoriel en français

I have to admit I'm not a huge fan of Queen and Brian May, but this solo is absolutely great.
Some students needed a version for their School Party, and here you are. 

Disclaimer for advanced players: you wanna bend a lot of notes more than this, but this is a transcription for mid-skilled players. Read the video description on YouTube.

If you need a backing track to practice, voilà:

HAVE FUN!

Lou Reed - Satellite Of Love - Acoustic guitar cover

I do love this song so much...
Some songs are not hard to play or sing, but they've got an unrepeatable strength.
That's the case.

Pink Floyd "Mother" for a guitar solo version on Facebook - support indie artists!

If you are a Facebook addict, here you are the Facebook version of the previous video.
About self-promotion, it is pretty difficult being strong on all different social networks.
One of the things you can do for helping independent artist, is comment and share their works.
I don't feel comfortable to admit it, but yes, since I'm trying to create a community around my works, a simple share from my follower is sweet as a honey cup.
Love you all, folks!

Paul Gilbert great person and guitar player - Sweetwater great content creator

One of my favorite guitar players.
A long interview without a guitar in his hands, and yes, the result is pretty interesting.
Thanks to Paul Gilbert for the inspiration during all these years, and thanks to Sweetwater for the quality content, as usual.
