Hello to all!
I am Sotos from Athens,Greece and I am based in Netherlands since 2010.
Mainly I am playing finger style & percussive solo acoustic guitar but also I am composing for other instruments and producing bands and artists.
Recently I published my first original solo(no overdubs) acoustic guitar song and performance video where all the drum sounds,bass lines,chords and melodies are played by once at the same time and though to share it with you.
If you enjoy please feel free to spread the word and share it around.
I ll be glad to know your thoughts!
Here is my video: http://youtu.be/qCYBEfjPx_U
Happy new year to all!

Hi Sotos
Glad you posted. Impressive. The one thing I kept wondering is, Where's the melody?

Hello Art Sims!
Glad you liked it and thank you.Music is about taste i believe and is possible that we have a different approach on melody,for me there is a melody going on almost all the time.
I wish you a great and creative new year!Thanks for checking my music.

Hey Sotos......Like Art I recognize your obvious talent on guitar but I too failed to hear any melody in the tune. I don't think I heard the same riff twice but I could be wrong. It must have to do with age because you are a young guy and both Art and I are older (much...LOL). I hope you keep the creative fires going and continue playing because you truly a good guitar player. My compliments!

Hello Roger!Thanks so much for your words.This is my first solo guitar song ever.
I really appreciate it your opinions and this is why I posted it on the forum.
Is true,can be age,country,influences of musicians and more.
My approach in this song was that there is a seperate bass line,chords and melodies mostly in the highest notes going all together.
Thank as well for your time to check it!
I think this is why the forums exist to change points of view and opinions .
Lot's of greetings!
