Matteo Mancuso - Drop D (Official Music Video)

Official Music video for Drop D.
Preorder/Stream: lnk.to/matteom...
I had so much fun shooting my first official video In Sicily! This magical location is called "finestra sul mare" and it is part of a series of artistic buildings and sculptures called "fiumara d'arte" (the pyramid you see at 03:17 is one of these buildings!) Drop D is one of the first original songs I wrote, I wanted to do a tribute to my first blues-rock influences, with an healthy amount of prog elements that I absorbed during my musical journey. A huge thank to my brothers Giuseppe Bruno on Drums and ‪@StefanoIndia‬ on Bass for their excellent work on this tune, but most importantly, for their precious friendship! Many thanks also to Antonio Presti for letting us shoot the video on these marvelous places, and of course ‪@YamahaGuitarsOfficial‬ for their constant support!
Video by: Filippo Silvestris, Pierluigi Ferrandini
Mixed and mastered at ‪@ForwardStudiosRome‬ by Andrea Secchi, Carmine Simeone

[@robarnold6998]

This young man is very impressive. He composes music that is really easy to listen to. So many virtuosos are incapable of doing that.

[@aidilmubarock5394]

Have you heard of plini? Particularly handmade cities album. It's sonically similar to this song

[@nunglkr]

I can hear satriani melodies too ❤

[@robarnold6998]

@jooohan Satriani is my personal favorite. I own all of his earlier albums. I love Paul Gilbert and Vai but I don’t find a ton of melody in Vai’s music. To me his playing is to eccentric and just weird. Saw Malmsteen back in the mid eighties with Alcatraz and was absolutely blown away but his solo offerings were boring and if you heard one you heard them all. I’m a huge fan of Lynch and Eddie but they’re pretty much of days gone by. Some of the jazz guys like Govan and Tosin just don’t do it for me. Matteo is a throw back and is so easy to listen to.

[@robarnold6998]

@jooohan to me, personally, Emmanuel is the GOAT. Just amazing and works unbelievably hard on his craft. His version of “Classical Gas” is phenomenal. Gilmour never gets mentioned on the “so called” greatest guitarists lists. His first solo effort was outstanding.

[@stevenjanelli3177]

Agreed. He did nothing abrasive. I'm tired of sounds that hurt my ears. God Himself created beauty and harmony, not dissonance.

[@singleplayer75]

WTF....fingers?! The level of articulation, precision and nuance here...boys and girls, here is a MONSTER player for you.

[@Kweesh]

Ignoring the absurdly high level of skill, this is actually a really nice song.

[@mtkwe]

I agree, IMO that's the hard thing, when you're that skilled. You usually see huge displays of technique but never really appealing to the 'common' listener, in this case the track is surprisingly pleasant.

[@ismayil9047]

Ignoring the main idea you’re trying to convey with your comment, this is actually not a song but a composition.

[@michellemcnair4825]

Your use of space is brilliant and and your phrasing is beautiful! PLEASE do a USA tour! I have a son (23, guitarist), who also plays with his fingers. He is battling autoimmune disease and there are days that his hands hurt too much to play and he struggles physically and emotionally. Yesterday was one of those days. I visited him and let him hear your new music. I havent seen him smile that much for that long in months. You are such an inspiration to young musicians like my son (and older ones like myself). We hope to see you play here.

This guy absolutely rips. I've never seen anyone play guitar like that. It's like the next version of EVH. Tone is killer and song is outstanding. This cat is a true virtuoso.

[@consulentecomunicazionestr3072]

A modern version of EVH, but playing without a pick, using different languages and vocabulary of jazz and fusion, and playing every genre of music with a superior class. Many envy people said : "very good, but him not compose his own music..." Now the answer is arrived. He compose, and is able also to construct good music

[@TheRodge2112]

@@consulentecomunicazionestr3072 Sure. All that too.

[@sgraider2425]

Yeah, but it's nerd rock. EVH was for the masses. Big difference.

[@TheRodge2112]

@@sgraider2425 I think I was referring more to his picking style; that it is a novel technique in the same way Eddie's tapping was novel when he came onto the scene. No guitar-based rock is popular these days the way it was in the 70s and 80s, so that's not really a fair critique, in my opinion. It is nerd rock, though. Only guitar players really listen to this stuff. Ha!

[@Jamaramlolz]

@@TheRodge2112 I feel like Van Halen mostly qualifies as nerd rock, although Van Halen had a wide range of fans. There is a section who listen to it because of EVH and what he brought to the guitar.

[@soundtreks]

He really knows how to build and tell story with his solos. He can shred like no other but it’s the arc of his playing which is really captivating.

[@VidMashUp]

This is a different level - your OWN level. Incredible. Absolutely incredible. Whenever I think every sound that can be made by a guitar has been made, someone like you comes along and breaks all the rules to stunning effect. As a guitarist, I'm so proud of what you have done and so grateful to you for breaking the mold, doing your own thing, and introducing us to something different.

Just when I think I have the sound of this song pinned down, it changes. It bleeds seamlessly from a hard rock sound to country western, back to hard rock, then prog as fuck, and then somehow manages to end up sounding like the best Opeth song I've yet to hear.

Kudos anche alle parti Metal. Cup on the cake. Stupendo. Bravissimi.

So glad this is already up to hundreds of comments. Mr. Mancuso is such a talent. Pick your favorite form of music. Matteo is comfortable with all of them.

Matteo ti ho conosciuto musicalmente da un paio di anni, sono un chitarrista amatoriale senza pretese ma un ottimo ascoltatore di musica, tu sei un gran talento, l'unica cosa che posso dirti è di trovare la tua strada musicale senza compromessi, scrivendo e suonando musica con il cuore. Allora sicuramente lascerai il tuo segno nella musica del futuro. 💪💪💪

Mark Lettieri vibes ! ❤

[@achenarmyst2156]

Lettieri has got similar taste and rhythmic precision but not Matteo‘s fluency.

Pochi minuti ma senza fiato e senza parole.............. e' tutto incredibilmente perfetto!

[@mariozedda3036]

Ho visto Matteo Mancuso Trio ieri sera a Cervo (IM). Uno spettacolo indimenticabile per quanto riguarda la musica, la tecnica, la passione e l'umanità che questi tre ragazzi fanno traspirare ad ogni nota che suonano.

Proprio così.

[@davidwanstall4232]

Wonderful, keep doing what your doing.💯

i know there a re great guitarists out there, super fast and technical and or bluesy, but this guy is in a higher level in many ways, melodically and technically speaking incredible, great composition, refreshing to hear something as creative and not just a copy in sound and style

[@lanzicavalli6453]

At last a very correct comment! Who speaks of "only technique", dont has any musical sensitivity. MM Is a very rare chemical complex of technique, taste and soul. It's very difficult to find these three qualities together in a unique musician

[@jamesragsdale8202]

YES and YES!!!
