No More Time For Pretend - Lillithe & Paploviante

Back in 2006 Liquid soul and I released our first ever LIQUID ACE collaboration titled 'Let Go' on the Iboga Records compilation 'Superstition'. An iconic track at the time, it faded into memory over the past years, especially since it wasn't available for download for a few years already.

But 2021 sees this track resurfacing one again, as up and coming french producer IKØN's new remix to Let Go connects the past with the present. With his personal goal to unite the old school progressive vibe with the soundscapes of the modern times, IKØN's choice couldn't have landed on a better track than to remix the very first Liquid Soul and Ace Ventura collab ever released. And along with IKØN's fresh rendition of this classic tune, we are proud to once again bring to all of you the original mix with a fresh 2021 polishing.

"Close your eyes. Concentrate. Meditate. Let go of yourself."

Liquid Ace - Let Go (IKØN Rmx) SAMPLE

This recording is an overdubbing of my guitar playing on the work "Lover's Prayer" by Lisha Nandi.

--------------------------------------------------------
When I first listened to Lisha's this work, I was completely fascinated by it. I think the vocals, lyrics, composition, and performance are all excellent, and the balance between them is wonderful.When I suddenly returned to myself, I was holding my Les Paul, and have started recording with it.

The original work released by Lisha can be thought of as a completed "acoustic version".If I think the purpose of adding and releasing my guitar playing to it is to promote and disseminate the existence of that wonderful "acoustic version".

＊If you are practicing playing the guitar, please use it to master the performance of "C # m Pentatonic Scale".I think there are several ways to practice playing the guitar with this song, this time I mainly played and recorded it using the "C # m pentatonic scale".

If the foundation is neglected, there will be no future development. Those who neglect their proficiency in the pentatonic scale and act as if they have mastered not only the pentatonic scale but also the blues scale will most hope that listeners will misunderstand that their guitar playing is good. .. It's a very dangerous adventure.

I eagerly want anyone to get out of that dangerous situation as soon as possible.Any guitar player who hasn't mastered it can't get out of the "beginner". I think.

If you know that it is used in the following representative songs, everyone who has not used it before will surely say "Oh, is that a pentatonic scale?"

The Beatles --Let It Be
This song has different solo performances on the single version and the album version, but it is a guitar solo called "A minor(C major) pentatonic scale textbook" from the time it was released.

Led Zeppelin --Stairway to Heaven
Even in this song, a guitar solo will appear at the end of the song. This is a solo performance using the "A minor Pentatonic Scale", which is a little more difficult than the above.

Eagles --Hotel California
A very famous guitar solo will be developed at the end of this song as well. Since it is a twin lead, it is a more difficult solo performance. The "B minor pentatonic scale" is used.

The guitar playing that I layered on the original sound source is very simple. Some may say it's too simple.However, it doesn't make any sense to crush the sound of vocals and other instruments to make only the sound of the guitar.

There is no guitar solo in this attempt, and I didn't play the chords and tried to accompaniment phrases. This is because it is meaningless unless the listener can easily listen to vocals and other performances. Therefore, I think it is easier to practice the scale using the guitar.

PS
There are quite a few artists I would like to collaborate with someday. Lisha has long been one of the representatives, and I have long waited for the opportunity to come. Recently, I have actually had the opportunity to dramatically improve the collaborative environment. Even with an already completed sound source, it is impossible to completely separate it for each instrument, but now it is possible to separate files into several major parts. 

In this work, even if the volume is set a little louder to maintain the sound quality of the guitar, the vocals are cut out from other parts, so the volume and sound quality of the vocals could be sufficiently maintained. That is one of the major backgrounds that made it possible to release this recording
(I've uploaded a version here that matches the genuine Apple earphones for the iPhone, so  it's a good idea to set up an equalizer for your listening environment).

Lisha approved my this attempt to be published here. I thank her sincerely for her generosity.
