Hey everyone! As always we’re hanging out at Okzygen, and today I was feeling a little bit like playing something on the funkier side of things. I’ve been needing some of those more uplifting vibes as of late, after dealing with a whole bunch of not very fun stuff at all. So today we’re slapping our way through some Red Hot Chili Peppers with their song Hump De Bump! This song goes through a… Continue reading
Hey everyone! We’re a little late getting this video out this week, but this one needed a little extra work to really make it something. See, this weekend is the 30th anniversary of one of my favourite albums of all time, The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails. This one has played a large role in my life, and I wanted to celebrate it a bit by doing a full cover of The Becoming! Now… Continue reading
Hey everyone! We’re cutting right under the wire here, but we’ve managed to make it to the finish line with this years RPM Project, Palanavra! Now as I’ve mentioned before, this is definitely not the final version of this album, this is just what we’ve been able to get finished in the last month. And I was honestly hoping to get more stuff done, but due to some outside influences taking up more of my… Continue reading
Hey everyone! It’s once again the end of the week so we’ve put together another video to usher in the weekend, this time a little number by Primus called Too Many Puppies. And this one’s a bit of a milestone, as it marks the 40th video I’ve put out this year alone! Not too shabby if I say so myself, considering before I rebooted the channel I was lucky to push out say, 5 videos… Continue reading
Hey everyone! We’re once again back at Okzygen studios working on some stuff. This time around we’re revisiting an older tune of mine from 12 years back, a little tune called House On The Horizon. The first version was a rather laid back, stripped composition with only a couple of clean guitars and a basic drum beat. It was a rather relaxing, melancholic song back then, and was actually one of my most played ones… Continue reading
Alright everyone, I hope you’re ready for a bit of funk today, because we’re ripping through another Red Hot Chili Peppers cover on the bass! This time we’re running through the tune Tell Me Baby, a personal all-time favourite of pretty much all time. There’s something magnificently uplifting about this song, one can put it on at any time, no matter what bullshit they may have been dealing with, and just, feel better. It’s great.… Continue reading
Hey all you beautiful people! We’re jumping back onto the bass guitar today, for a funky cover of Higher Ground by a little band called Red Hot Chili Peppers. Now originally this song is done by Stevie Wonder, but I’m pretty sure the bass in the Peppers version is a tad more fun to play, so that’s the version we’re doing and you just have to deal with it. As expected with most anything Flea… Continue reading
Hey everyone! Hope you guys are ready for something a little different today. As you can see, I’m using this really weird guitar for this video. It’s missing two strings, it’s bloody huge and heavy, and for some reason you play it without a pick. It’s a bass. But we’re doing Lacquer Head by Primus, so of course we’re doing it on the bass! I actually started out on bass way back before picking up… Continue reading
