Hey everyone, and welcome back to the Utility Muffin Research Kitc– wait. No, that’s the wrong place. Let’s try that again. Hey everyone, and welcome back to Okzygen Studios, where we’re embarking on another journey through time as we embrace the wild madness of one Frank Zappa! Today we’re ripping through one of his signature tracks, Watermelon In Easter Hay, taken off the absolutely fantastic album Joe’s Garage. If you haven’t listen to this album… Continue reading

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Higher Ground | BASS COVER

  By , ,

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

Primus – Lacquer Head | BASS COVER

  By , ,

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

Joe Satriani – Always With Me, Always With You | GUITAR COVER

  By , ,

Hey everyone, it’s time for another video! It’s been just over a year since I rebooted the YouTube channel, and even though I’ve only been doing the regular upload things for the last three months, I wanted to mark the year with another Joe Satriani cover. So today we’re running through the track Always With Me, Always With You. I had this track figured out a few years back and played it during one of… Continue reading

Iron Maiden – Hallowed Be Thy Name | GUITAR COVER

  By , ,

Hey Everyone! We’re turning the clocks back a bit further than normal today and jamming out to Hallowed Be Thy Name, by Iron Maiden. This group definitely got me started on this guitar journey and this path down the dark side of metal. I remember finding this record among my parents collection and essentially annexing it as my own, spending hours on end flipping this record over and over again while hiding in my room.… Continue reading

Tool – Right In Two | GUITAR COVER

  By , ,

Hey everyone! We’re doing another cover video today, and a long one at that with Right In Two by Tool. This band became a very important part of my musical influence long ago after being introduced to them by my buddy Alex, with masterful control over experimental time signatures, poly-rhythms, atmosphere, and of course the fantastic drumming of Danny Carey. But we’re not drumming today, we’re focusing on Adam Jones and all his little nuances… Continue reading

Tides of Eternity – New Song Available

  By

Hey everyone! Like most of the world, I’ve been spending a fair bit of time lately hunkered down while we wait out the COVID-19 situation. It’s a very curious time to be alive right now, but we shouldn’t just sit idly by and wait just because we’re safe inside. So I dug through some old files, started putting together some old tracks that were abandoned long ago, and over the next few weeks I’m gonna… Continue reading

Megalomaniac – New Album March 2018

  By ,

So It’s been a bit since my last post, and there have been some changes and events since then. Let’s start out with some new music first. About a month ago I took up the Record Production Month challenge, where one is supposed to record and release an album in February. A few days ago I finished the project and released Megalomaniac! It was a fun little project and something that I feel a bit… Continue reading
