Hi again! Another Iron Maiden's cover... That's quite simple in fact but there are still some minor mistakes. As always I improvised the soloing part, while the rhythm remains the same as the original one. Hope you'll enjoy! I apologize for the quality but I've recorded it with my cell phone, so... for me this is already a kind of studio quality sound >.<

Hi everybody ^^
This time I chose a different configuration for my record. I managed to connect my amp (from the phones' output) to the "Line in" input on my computer... I finally heard the actual sound of my guitar while I was playing ^^" 
My amp's distrosion channel is not as good as I thought some songs ago... This sound doesn't fit in the track as I wanted... Ah well, doesn't matter, that's the best I could arrange. Hope you'll enjoy. You can find the original backing track (with Ozzy's vocals too) here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXph2b4tomQ

Hi! In these days I've been listening to Tool again... My group is preparing a cover for this song, and that's my part. I played over a backing track I found on Youtube (here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKzhOqwJhEc), there are some minor mistakes and some volume swells because of my unreliable cable... The harder thing in this song is following the tempo: the main 5/4 pattern occasionally switch in some bars in 6/8 or 4/4... Anyway, I hope you'll like it.

Hi guys!
Today I've spent a couple of hours to prepare this cover. I was preparing Chop Suey! as I need to perform it with my band, but I decided to record and upload this one for one special reason. This is dedicated to LSOA Buridda. Come on guys, we're all with you. I apologize in advance for any mistake, but I didn't had the time to perfectly fix all the stuff. By the way, I do not own any of the effects the guitarist used in the original recording, so that's the best I could achieve with my gear.

That's gonna be the first attempt using SoundCloud to share and Audacity to record something. I simply tried to connect the phone output of my amp to the microphone input of my PC using a jack. I used Audacity to record both the lead and the rhythm part. Actually it's the last solo of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. Hope you'll enjoy this simple cover!

Metallica - Nothing Else Matters - Solo

Hi again!
Few days ago a friend of mine, the brave Dna (website: http://dnacorp.zxq.net/) asked me if I could try to create something to be used as main theme for a streaming event - the X-Universe Fleet Fest (wanna learn more about this? here we are! http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=326365). We needed something powerful but also dynamic, so I choose a slow and melodic intro riff supported by both rhythm and lead distorsion part harmonized with it. This was recorded before the other track (the solo of Nothing Else Matters - here: http://soundcloud.com/capux/metallica-nothing-else-matters-solo) so you can hear some impurities in the sound. There are few mistakes during the - almost improvvised - solo, I'm aware of it. Hope you'll enjoy! :D

Hi all! I have been playing a lot of Iron Maiden all over the last months, and so... here we are again. I've simply played over a backing track found on YouTube (here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLf5GLqVnpw). Unfortunately the backing track has no vocals, so you won't hear Paul's voice =(  I've recorded this using my cell phone, but since the quality is not so bad, I've decided to upload it. Aw, by the way, I've intentionally invented all the solos. They're not so far from the real ones, but it's my habit to play this way. I'm a fool, I know, anyway I like it. Enjoy!

Hi everyone!
My name is Capux (Pietro for friends - but just call me Capux), and I love music, so I've started play guitar as self-taught in december 2010. I'm from Genoa, Italy, and I enjoy every genre of music. I've played since late 2011 to early 2014 in a band called  "Work in Progress" making cover of Metallica, Megadeth and Iron Maiden. Now I'm going to start something definetely different. I founded and joined Cellar Door as lead guitarist and now we're getting up on the stage again, with new material, and I hope to enter the recording studios as soon as possible. 
Well, c'mon, why don't you listen to something I've played?
Enjoy!

Capux
