    • I've been playing guitar

      for about 10 years and never have I seen something so cool! I tried to do it and I can get get the first part but the rest where he's playing "backwards" is absolutely insane. Very difficult and he makes it look so effortless... 5 stars for posting!!

  • Everyone Keeps Getting this WRONG

    It's not called Drifting... The style is commonly called "AirTap" and the name of this particular SONG is "Drifting."

    Sheesh.

  • Michael Hedges Hack...

    He didn't invent this style af playing. An artist now deceased by the name of Michael Hedges was a master at this as well as a few other styles of play.
    Anyone interested should check out these albums.
    Live on a Double Planet, Taproot, or Arial Boundries.
    Some of the most beautiful music out there!

    By redlineman 1168208208
    • How the hell can

      you say that taproot is beautiful music ? Its just a bunch of screaming and S**t

      By gixxer600 1168231611
    • Your not so bright are you?

      I didn't mean Taproot the band I ment the Michael Hedges album named Taproot.

  • man...

    It sounds so beautiful, this guy is awesome

    By sniffmapoopi 1168077850
  • Fantastic skill but...

    the technique is not original. Like I said, the man is mind-blowingly skilled, but its just airtap and hammering done very well. Im pretty sure "drifting" is the name to that instrumental, not the technique. Good stuff though. Quite a talent.

  • Yes

    This is just wonderful. I'm sure there are many guitarists out there that can play this style, but this song and the execution is just absolutely awesome. Wonderful stuff man. I'd buy a CD in a heartbeat.

    By commakozzi 1168057063
  • surreal and angelic

    it sounds like two people are playing. reminds me of the Tibetan and Buddhist Monks who use multiphonic techniques in there chanting (two notes from one voice). great example of honing a craft.

    By contraflip 1168053245
  • superb!!!

    a new way of playing!! to be diferent you have to do something diferent...and he just did!!!

    By El Bobillo 1168048607

    By Insuredjester 1168041362
  • hmm

    My father used to play something like that when I was younger, he doesn't play that much anymore. Maybe I can make him play something cool and then I'll post it :)

    By havre 1168032284
  • Amazing talent

    He is just playing this like a keyboard. the guitar is just a piano choped up into six different keyboards. I bet this guy can really rip the ivories too.

    did you guys know that that guy is blind? he is, he has a true talent, that song sounds beautiful, it is special cuz he plays the guitar like that, and he also is blind. WOW.

    By Bratnichenko 1168053113
    • I read his bio

      in there it says nothing about him being blind and he is perfectly fine. he is in his 20's if you dont know him and have never heard of him then really read his bio's. he travels.
