This original song is about people who was stealing my things in one or another way. Finally I made a video with my lazy twin-brother again. Enjoy, and don't forget to show that video to everybody! Peace!
That is some A+ playing. The whole thing: the song, the performances, the videography. Alex, you're right on target. You've got an original sound of your own. You don't waste notes, but you've got more than enough of them when you need them. Nothing derivative here. If you two were playing on Maxwell Street in Chicago back in the early 1950s, people would be mobbing you.
Well, everyone has commented about the song and the playing and the tuning and I got nothing to add to that: excellent playing, nice catchy tune!
What I did want to add was that I was really impressed with the film work.
Really nicely put together. Did you do it all yourself? Have you had training in film-making? Excellent stuff. Really enjoyed it. More so knowing the truth about that lazy twin brother! A cut above the Youtube average. Thanks for sharing.

The more I listen the better I like it. I would love to hear Mr. Paclin's take on the Powerbender and how it possibly fits into his musical future.
@Buddha: "PowerBender"... Yes, mostly, but there is more trickery in this video than just in the filming and editing.
Alex is miming to a pre-recorded track; on a cursory listen I can tell there is more than one harp key/tuning used on the recording, but the solo is played on a PowerBender in A.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Alex. Sounds cool!

You make it sound your own, Alex :) It's great to hear the PowerBender through someone else's ears and musical brain, especially when they have a lot of natural talent. Can't wait to hear more!
Well, to add something to this thread I'd say the feeling of the song is really good. IT makes you feel good when you listen to it - so I'd say the song itself is really good to begin with.
