Effectivement, ce jeune garçon est un prodige, mais il a encore beaucoup de chemin à parcourir pour atteindre le niveau de créativité et de personnalité de Jimmy Hendrix, d’Eric Clapton, Tommy Emmanuel, Gary Moore, et de bien d’autres: la dextérité seule est loin de suffire pour oser établir la moindre comparaison avec les plus illustres guitaristes et compositeurs … Ce n’est que mon avis. 🎶🎸🎶

Thank Tyler and Matteo! What a fun, spontaneous interview! I just met Matteo and Vinnie at the Vai Academy in Orlando, FL and they are both super cool and friendly. Matteo's playing speaks for itself; he's a wunderkind. Besides incomparable chops, supreme taste, melody, phrasing, etc. he has diverse influences from all my favorite players across rock, jazz, fusion. No wonder I love him! He is no one-trick pony, either; he is deeply educated and has done the hard training required to achieve such levels of musicianship.

His debut album is unbelievably good, proper relatable music with tone and feeling to die for. That little vamp from Tyler, that was cool too.

@@12xenn45what hendrix track should i listen to to convert me because I haven’t heard anything that moves me at all yet everyone sings his praises. Is it that he was just good for his era but out of context everyone sounds like him now?

[@morlun838]

​@@12xenn45 nothing robotic about it. No one puts in the hours of practice to get better at the instrument to express less emotion. And the kind of music Polyphia, Abasi, Ichika, Manuel, Mancuso and ilk are making IS groundbreaking, they have distinct sounds and inspire imitators because of their novel approaches. Don't conflate sloppiness with raw energy, and don't conflate proficiency with roboticness, they are not the same thing.

[@brianh5844]

​@@morlun838 I still sort of see what 12xenn45 is talking about to be honest. I feel like this is a larger cultural issue, however, that's not unique to music or guitarists. It's a huge brush to paint so I'm not an ideologue about it. There *is* plenty of good, emotionally driven guitar playing, don't get me wrong. However, I often find that what I'm hearing in some of the most vaulted guitar gods' playing of today feels like a performance of emotionality rather than the real deal. I can't put my finger on exactly why, but I find much of the music from 60's and prior to feel less performative in terms of the emotions on display, and I didn't even grow up in that era. Partly I guess it feels like a symptom that few people really believe in anything anymore. We're in the age of scientific materialism and determinism. We were told as kids that our genes determine most of who we are. We're awash in philosophies that say the only meaning in the universe is that which humans create. I'm not at all sad about the abandoning of traditional organized religion, but I think there's a void, a crisis in meaning, in our era, that has been going on since the 80's. The 60's and 70's saw a large swell in social consciousness and a belief that humanity could resolve its differences and establish a peaceful, loving society. Many people really felt and believed that, and you could hear that love in the music. Today, you still see some of that (there's some really great socially conscious hip hop and funk), but it's pretty rare and almost seems anachronistic to the average listener. This is an era where we immerse ourselves in simulated, virtual versions of just about everything, where many despair as to the potential for a more beautiful world or finding genuine meaning and fulfillment. The notion of belonging to the world, to humanity, to life... feels antiquated, and when there is spirituality, it's often commodified. It's not anyone's fault, of course. The factors are largely systemic. Still, I feel that you can hear that simulated, virtual reality in much of the best music. The technical proficiency is awe-inspiring, of course, and I still enjoy listening to it, but it doesn't stir my heart the way, say, listening to Bold as Love or While My Guitar Gently Weeps (especially Prince's rendition) does. That said, I've found many good artists still holding that torch, it's just they're often not the ones the critics and the algorithm is hyping.

[@brianh5844]

I'll give another example: take Jacob Collier. He's an amazing musician and I'm genuinely a fan, I'm looking forward to seeing him in concert this year. He has songs that are sort of trying to do what Stevie Wonder did in the 70's, anthemic ballads that inspire and stir the heart. He cites Stevie as a huge influence, and got his career going by doing covers of Stevie songs. Despite how amazing his music is and how much I admire him, I still get that feeling that some of the emotion in his songs is simulated. That it's not coming from the heart, but from his left brain's simulation or model of what a song like that should sound like musically and lyrically. Maybe it's just a personal problem. I definitely don't think he's a bad dude or a fake, and I hope it doesn't come across that way. I just think it's really hard in today's era to be a genuinely open hearted, sensitive person who allows themselves to feel their full range of emotions while attending to the situation in our world and making meaning of your relationship to it while still doing what it takes to succeed in the business and get noticed. I can see Jacob and many other artists trying, I really can. However, it still feels like sometimes it's missing some of the genuine collective consciousness that inspired emotionally powerful works like Stevie's classic Songs in the Key of Life.

[@brianh5844]

​@@morlun838 Sorry for the triple reply, but I did check out the artists you recommended, some of whom I hadn't heard yet like Ichika. I saw the same thing that I see with a lot of these millennial and zoomer guitar gods. Flat facial expressions and calm bodies while they shred away. It is probably conducive to high-performance shredding, but I'm not seeing genuine, intense emotions with their playing. I want to see a guitar solo that brings me to tears, I want to see the guitarist almost breaking with emotion or barely containing the joy rushing through their body. I want to see them in pain, ecstasy, or preferably both throughout the space of a song. Not just moving and bobbing or banging their head in a way that makes them look cool, but genuinely expressing the full gamut of human emotionality. I want to see vulnerability.

[@NigelTupuola]

Watching this you can start to appreciate and trust yourself as a player as we all are totally unique in every way we approach guitar playing and music. We can trust that there is no standard way of doing anything, it's all you and what works for you. Who knew guitar playing could be a life lesson.

I really like what you said about being supportive and not getting into a negative headspace. Been following Tim Henson and Matteo for the past year or so. Matteo has grabbed my musical heart with his playing, choice of style and notes. This finger dexterity and technique can be compared only with the late, great Paco de Lucia and other fantastic Flamenco style guitarists. Paco was able to keep up with John McLaughlin's speed picking, just an incredible feat. Matteo has utilized the Alan Holdsworth search for the new/lost chord and smooth transition into flaming improvisation. His latest tune using the whammy bar is a great homage to the Jeff Beck style brings tears to my aching mind, beauty and flow. Will be looking to see if his tour comes close. Music is a win. 🎶

[@WilliamDaugherty]

@@tonytg9099 I think it's a matter of conscious versus unconscious thought. Thinking about hand position, where you start a particular arpeggio, or any other technical detail of guitar playing is an impediment to masterful improvisation. That's my interpretation of Matteo's comment and it certainly matches my experience.

[@tonytg9099]

@@WilliamDaugherty yes but all the fundamentals you need to get to a certain level before you can play unconsciously takes plenty of thinking and years of practice.

[@WilliamDaugherty]

@@tonytg9099 yes, obviously, which is why we aren't talking about learning to play an instrument but rather "masterful improvisation". One of my first teachers really emphasized this to me at a time when I thought I wasn't very skilled. As a more mature player, I still find myself sometimes thinking about a specific technique rather than "flow", i.e., melodic or lyrical elements. I think this is why I had such a strong reaction to Matteo's mantra.
