Instrumental composition recorded way back in the day, 80's I think :)

Featuring non stop Guitar shredding. Enjoy.

It needs coordination but overall i love it i can stick to this.

I'd love to hear a remake of this...

But for now, this version will do. Was the lead guitar improvised?

Would've done a lot a better if there was an intro solo to this, but you're still getting a 10/10 because it's pure awesome. Drum fills could've been better too, but this was in the 80s, it sounds great anyway.

There's so many things this would be appropriate for...
- speeding
- flying attack choppers or fighter jets
- snowboarding
- resisting arrest
- fighting
- playing Sonic
- parkour
- surviving zombie hordes
- Guitar Hero
- speeding
- blowing up shit
- jetpacking

Thanks dude, the Audio Portal needs more stuff like this. Consider making more.

Not mixed very well.

The drums are played great, and the guitar even better. But, they don't go together at all. It sounds like two different songs playing at once. The bass fits well though. I would've given this a much higher rating if all of the instruments fit in.
6/10

You are awesome

This song is absolutely great. I fucking love it. Your playing is awesome because even if you're shredding you're still paying attention to the overall melody and feel of the song, so in that sense you're like Paul Gilbert! God damn, your playing actually reminds me of him even. I really like your use of the major scale here, it sounds awesome.

I also really like your tone here, it's not particularly unique or anything, but why would it need to be? Just solid distortion, plain and simple. And I love it. What guitars/amps are you using?

Aside from the guitars, everything else in this song works really well. The bass and drums groove and serve their purpose while the guitar just goes on a 4 minute reign of epic. Good job.

Probably my only point of improvement that I could give you is that the song sounds a bit muddy. The mix could use quite a bit more highs. And I think this would further sell the image you're trying to convey if you added some synths in there.

God damn. Good job man. It'd mean a lot if you took the time to dissect any of my band songs. Great chops, great ear. You're awesome.

Decent guitar playing

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm this is actually some nice guitar atleast i think its a guitar but i seem to be hearing some distortion? mainly at the start of it, now dont get me wrong, its pretty good and does seem to get better as in goes along, and is some pretty good playing if i say so myself, was not too long and not too short either so i was alright with this and overall thought it was ok, to make it better i suppose try and clean up the distortion at the start, i didnt hear it much as it moves along.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I heard some slight distortion at the start might want to clean it up abit.

~X~

ManicG responds:

First of all thanks :) and yes it is a Guitar...

I know the quality's not great but this was recorded back in 80 something. I cleaned it up as best as I could. I mainly played around with the EQ + Left and right Channels. I'm sure someone with more experience could do a better job remastering the audio.
