Max Ostro - Electric Fusion Soloing

[@JTCGuitar]

Honoured to have you on board man!

[@vapourmile]

Trouble with this tie-in is... nobody believes they're ever going to be able to actually play this. Good on Max because he's an awesome guitarist, but I'm genuinely not even going to bother trying to be that good.

1:52-1:55 Awesome! Caught me by surprise and I had to rewatch a bunch of times to see what just happened. Keep innovating Max! You’re on a whole other level my friend.

[@erickmedmer5263]

max… thank you for showing that computers will no replace the feeling in playing the guitar… hope to hear more from you and of possible of you can offer us a gift of an album!!!!

[@Cheximus]

Holy shit, at 0:57 Max actually almost enjoyed some of his own playing! ;D Brilliant. Congrats!

[@ChrisFineganTunes]

I noticed that too! 😂

[@jonthemachine1970]

What sets Max apart from all the rest...Phrasing. He has the most beautiful phrasing at any speed and any style. Max is my favorite guitar player. I cant wait for a solo album.

[@davidartreides3932]

Every time I see this man play it scares the daylights out of me!! Fantastic player!

[@malliakoschristos]

I seriously don't understand why anyone would dislike this. Your fcking awesome dude!

[@malliakoschristos]

@Andy Don Well, that's the thing. He's never offered the standard conventional songs, so I am just curious to know why anyone would watch his vids and then dislike them if they are not into his music. Anyway, thanks for replying :)

Incredible, Max! Definitely one of the most exciting new guitar wizards I've seen in a long time. Congratulations on landing the JTC gig.

[@catch1234]

The "Promenade" solo is an insane work of art

[@c.g.vonhagenstein7576]

Been sub'd to your channel for quite awhile Max. It's a joy to see your dedication and versatility begin to pay off (in ways other than your level of mastery). My mind s blown every time I watch you play. Def not a one trick pony either. You've got a ton of great techniques. Congrats and much continued success to you. Your future is bright young man.

[@E-MusicProductions]

Amazing Max! you are killing it!

[@DavidNwokoye]

I'm scared of how he's doing all of that effortlessly 😱😱😱

[@KrisFjord]

Effortlessly? How about the 1000s of hours of effort put into studying theory, technique and experience of putting the two together?

[@kyatzz]

Relaxation is the key to playing fast. If he'd tense up he wouldn't get this done.

[@limenode]

@@KrisFjord that doesn’t mean that, at this point in time (after all of that invested effort / practice), his playing doesn’t seem effortless... it does. It’s fluid, seamless and he’s very relaxed; yes, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to arrive at that.

his legato, the tone in his fingers, his bends, his vibrato! very expressive and mature and so refined. his musical brain is so advanced, god talks to this young man!

[@NeesyPlaysGuitar]

Been awaiting this kinda news. And damn dude, you are made for fusion. It really lets you open up and show that you can be clean as fuck and expressive. Some of those fast legato runs are as clean as any of the greats, and you've got decades to build further. You'll be a household name for guitarists at the very least in a few years.

[@danielmedina4300]

Great Max! I’ve always wondered about your EQ

[@bestiaonthedrums]

@@MaXaNoMaLoUs when I hear Max, I feel I'm somehow familiar with his style, it has that '80s shredding background imo, even though brought to a new level. On the other hand, Matteo sounds more original to me, but I guess it's because I'm not familiar with fusion guitarists like Eric Johnson (not sure he is a fusion guitarist either 😅)

And in the name of shred, i definitely believe Max Ostro will go down in the books as one of the greatest players the world has ever seen.

If I knew this guy in any capacity, I would be so proud of him. His chops are absolutely phenomenal and he's got here by hard work and really exceptional technique.

[@tylerbrock2659]

@@gwcrego ideology and speed and precision are definitely different worlds. I can agree with you. You have to be unique

[@shredd5705]

@@gwcrego I don't think it sounds canned or unoriginal, especially for someone as young. You're being over-critical because his technical skill annoys you. You demand The Beatles level composition, because of his fast playing, instead of comparing him to average artist. Compared to most modern popular music out there, it actually has interesting chords and melodies. Most things playing on Top 50 charts now is just autotune and overused 4-chord progressions with silicon tits. Or rapping, even less to do with music People will never perceive fast things as "melodic". People can admit it sounds interesting or impressive, but they won't call it melodic, no matter how well it's composed. To be seen as "melodic" you need to play slow, then you can play something quite boring and people actually think you're a melodic player Comparing to Pat Martino is dumb, he's full on Jazz player. Why don't you compare to other fusion players? Fusion = jazz and rock combined... it's pointless to bring a jazz player into conversation if you don't even like Fusion. Personally I like fusion, normal jazz is less interesting because they don't use the far larger possibilities of distorted guitar. Distortion makes it a different instrument, one with tons more potential. That's why Guthrie Govan etc. use distortion, you lose so much of electric guitar's advantages if you don't have distortion and light strings. You lose the ability to bend... and to properly legato. Then you're left with only disadvantages (which guitar has many, compared to keyboard/piano)
