The art of the "The Glass Bridge" with Tosin Abasi π
In this excerpt, Tosin breaks down a section of this Animals As Leaders track written by Javier Reyes which involves several different methods of producing notes - palm muting, natural harmonics, and slides - all within the same passage. The result is a sound that is texturally rich yet cohesive and packed full of unique musical fingerprints akin to Tosin and Javier as composers.
Taken from The Madness of Tosin Abasi course, which breaks down key elements of "Backpfeifengesicht" and "The Glass Bridge" with exclusive performance footage, note-for-note transcription, technique breakdowns, and more. Get full access: https://store.guitarmessenger.com/the-madness-of-tosin-abasi
