Kind of surprised not that many posts this week, I wonder what's up.

Imo nepobaby is a weird term. I would imagine it would definately help if you've got family or friends in the bussinnes but at the end of the day that can only take you so far since you can't really "force" someone to like your music lol. Also, if i were in the position to give an opportunity to someone who really desired that position in a field i was in, aka friends or family, I think there would be no hesitation in trying to help them accomplish their dreams if you could, but maybe that's just me? Nepotisim /nepo baby is only bad if they are half assing it/ they are being forced by family or friends as its not really their personal dream. But since music is subjective and not something really measurable, it is an odd term to throw around in my opinion for anything in the "Arts category". Unfortunately there will always be someone more talented unrecognized out there due to x reason but I think platforms like tiktok has sort of helped there. Who knows how the algorithms works or if the views are legit or whatever but you still gotta respect the hustle if they are putting out lots of content. And yeah it was wiped out of my memory aswell i was surprised they even had a music video together. Speaking of nepobabys tho lol south arcade has a song called that and it was one i was considering instead of the one i chose, but i like the guitar riff more on stone cold summer

Yep time flies! You've managed to go from begginer to advance in rhythm class and intermediate in lead so congrats and keep working hard! Also 94% to a full cover of the song thats pretty impressive. As for my nin project here it is: got burried and abandoned long time ago I rememeber trying to do vocals and i was like yeeep nope . So i tried using his vocals but even then it still sounded wacky. I do have more fun imo creating new songs or remixes instead...covers didnt seem to do it for me creatively. Yeah I really enjoy ignition when people upload new songs cause it keeps me up to date with bands that I like but dont really follow. Forexample I didnt know adtr released a new album so i still have to listen to it. Hopefuly its better than better friends cause that album was a bit low for me, but i do think the more you listen to songs you tend to like them more so probably just needed to listen to it more.

Never really watched modernfamily but it does appear in my feed quite a bit and some sceenes like this one do give me a chuckle. Great cover btw! Like it more than the rock n roll cover so grats! Agree with the previous comments. And always good to hear 3dg Crazy that it's been 15 weeks since that week! Seems like forever yet not long enough, cause i was gonna put a linkin park song this week and was like oof nah i just made a week with them

Tbh, dont really recognize the name and probably wouldnt even have searched him up cause his part in the song really didnt do anything for me/ wouldve been fine without it / i like point norths vocalist more, untill you commented about him. Surprised he has almost twice the monthly listeners of point north (that band i did know from since when ghost in my home was released) A quick glance at his songs looks like he just does cover or sings on top of famous beats? cause i do remember hearing the banjo beat instrumental all over tiktok and yt shorts but ive never heard of damn...i do remember seeing the paparoach remix song and being like why? Doesnt seem for me but respect for him finding success and i guess it goes to show that there can be success by doing covers.

new week is up

No theme this week just suggested songs and kinda recent made cdlc. The begginer song might seem intimidating at first but its doable, I would play the other paths of the song ( alt lead 1 and 2) to get a hang of it. To me lots of the songs had similar dificulty on bass so i went and got other bass songs. South arcade songs structure is very simple and was tempted to put it in intermediate but the main hook is kinda fast and i couldnt get a good score, meanwhile my chemical romance song i did so thats why they are sorted that way. masterclass song is tough. Anyways, leave your ratings when you upload your scores to average them out, (numbers is prefered since i cant average higher than x or lower than x) And if you like any of the cdlcs or see any errors let them know. thanks Hopeyall have a nice week!

hey @ Classicoz ! just now noticed your scores didnt have the streak image, make sure to take the picture when that screen shows up as that's what counts as a valid score. I've added them anyways this time since you are newish

i think this one is my favorite of the ones you made so far! Im always a sucker for 4 chord songs lol. Never would've imagined this song to be simplefied to that extent or without the main piano melody but it works! goes to show that a song with good lyrics and melody can carry itself. very nice work Rod and your daughter. (btw does she play gtr/ participate in rocksmith championship?)

I agree and would also say difficulty also depends on the genre for example Bass for punk or metalcore may be easy but for disco and jazz its usually harder than the rhythm guitar. I never learnt to solo and honestly dont plan on learning cause the music i like doesnt usually shred, its just basic stuff. So for me, lead is usually the hardest (if it has a solo and doesnt do octaves cause octaves paths are usually simpler for me atleast) then rhythm and then bass.

yea metallica always has tones of charts. I saw a couple made for this song after nacholedes version..wonder what was wrong with nachos but i still havent played any of them

Aw now you made me hungry and I was just about to go to sleep, not cool

guitar 1st tries

just try to fret the 3 and 5 as close to the fretmetalbarmathingy .

thanks for the week mikson! nice song, a bit longer than id like but still nice

ahhh i didnt see, very nicely done! congrats an hi5 for not being able to solo hehe

i got lucky xD

hmmmm should i try to beat rodmans score decisions...

thanks! forgot about that

https://ignition4.customsforge.com/profile/Abandoned Leaving link here since the main post doesnt have it yet. Also a bit confusing that the charts dont appear in search when you write Abandoned on ignition.

gonna have to practice it more lots of pullofs/hamerons im missing Edit not sure why iage preview isnt appearing with imgur HMm

in other news https://www.waves.com/bundles/free-plugin-pack heres a free plugin bundle for those who are doing covers and want some free toys. Waves is an ok vst company, not a huge fan of theirs cause they usually want you to pay for updates... But since this is free i dont see the harm.

So nope not cheating at all! there is lots of ways to place the fingers in the chart. The way i have charted that section is you use your first finger on the 3 then you jump/ shift to the 5 place your first finger there and youll be hitting the 7s with your ring finger. The Blue lanes that are highlighted is known as the frethand position (where you should have your fretting hand) so when it moves to the 5, 5 6 7 8 are now highlighted cause your first finger is on the 5. If I had made it so that 5 7s are played with the ring and pinky it would look like this: It does look cleaner but usually i would just use that shape ( I call it the m shape cause it looks like an M to me aka fret skip fret skip fret) starting from 5s and up. (so 579) When i mention shapes i mean a position you place your hand without shifting. When its lower, anywhere from 0 to 5 I much rather shift my hand cause i find it more comfortable and its funner for me cause then i can add unnescary slides. Also with M shapes Its good to remember you usually can play last note aka the 7 on the string bellow one fret down so that is also another reason why i probably wouldnt use the M shape on the lower frets cause another shape is more accesible without moving the hand. so 4 yellow would make a new shape i refer to as the N shape since you are now fretting 2 3 and 5 ( the missing shape is an R shape which is called that cause you use the ring finger so 5 7 8 Anyways going off a tangent, both ways are acceptable and practical. Do whatever way makes you enjoy the chart more . Whats important is the result/ how it sounds like not really how you do it imo. I thought I had tabbed it both ways but looks like i didnt so maybe ill change that later.

I've never understood the appeal for pink floyd nothing ive heard from them has stood out to me. But after listening to your cover that has changed my mind and ill give them a listen lol. really nice work on your cover grats!
