Shadowminds#

The Halo Effect Shadowminds is your to go place for a 16th notes guitar workout. Do you want to practice 16th notes tackling accuracy and groove at a reasonable tempo and great effect? There you go.

The song has:

  • 4 parts: intro/main lead, verse, chorus and a solo
  • it goes at a steady 100 bpm
  • it is mostly 16th notes.

If you decide to give it a go have a look at:

  • the 3 against 4 of the chorus arpeggios
  • the combination of legato and palm muting in the verse. It makes all the groove despite being straight 16th notes. Basically it’s another trick to get accents despite playing all SSSS.
  • the amount of repetition in the main lead melody. Again, they are adding kind of a synchopation under the hood.

Have fun!
