ryanp16 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I for one am feeling optimistic. Just hope they stick to their own and leave the orchestras and choirs out this time. You know external musicians have been used since Absolution, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Is there a fan made version with the strong sections about anywhere? Yes, but it is a mess. (I literally searched "Muse Citizen Erased strings") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpypotato Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Mid-take? Chris is in there... They're not recording it live are they? #originstyle Typically the entire band plays together when you record the drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Didn't seem that way on the Resistance making-of either but that was just a soundcheck and the full band may have come in on the actual tracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum IV Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hi! I made a video about the riff is Matt playing. What do you think? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHwDdbGxdEw Doubt he is playing fifths all the way, it's too atonal for a Muse song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Eraser Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Matt strikes those bends kind of hard, could be pinch harmonics or harmonic bends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen_Eraser Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Shot in the dark but I had a thought. What if this is part of a fully fleshed out song that features the osaka jam riff? Similar picking tempo and lots of hammer ons etcs. I would love a full song with osaka jam's style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 It sounds too slow to be Osaka Jam. If it really was a slowed down Osaka Jam in the end that would be disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a relisten after having that thought and the drums are way too slow. Still it could be a diff section of the song that is slowed down lol. Nah I don't want to get carried away with this but it would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 You might have a point about the harmonics though although I was always under the impression Matt wasn't very good at those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWBORNchild Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Alright guys, I've been ear tabbing Muses stuff for a long time, and here's my 2 cents. He's only playing on the A String. BUT he may also be hitting the D string at the same time, possibly altering the tuning of the guitar (surprised nobody mention that the guitar might not even be standard tuned) He's tremolo picking. Note his picking hand, it never stops until he hits the begging of each measure, where he vibratos the note. This doesn't change much but at the same time it does, cuz now it's not standard notes. Once I feel better il get to work on it, il have to download it and really take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witz Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 You might have a point about the harmonics though although I was always under the impression Matt wasn't very good at those. Doesn't have to be if he was playing this whole section on a guitar with a sustainer switched to harmonic it will take notes held long enough to the harmonic while leaving the rest of the quicker played notes alone but honestly who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witz Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 That piano is the studios its in their pictures on there website. So it hasn't been brought in, so we don't know if we are getting a piano song plus it does sort look like it's been shoved in the corner rather than being actively used. Still I wouldn't bet against it. Not really sure what point I was trying to make there but you know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
