SWAG (Skandar,William,Anna,Georgie)

Skandar Keynes was born in London, 5 September 1991, the son of Zelfa Cecil Hourani and author Randal Keynes. His maternal grandfather, Cecil Fadlo Hourani, was a former adviser to the late Tunisian president Habib Bourguiba, as well as a famous cook.
Through his father, Keynes is the great-great-great grandson of the famous biologist Charles Darwin, through whom he is descended from Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of York (uncle to both Queen Anne Boleyn and Queen Catherine Howard), thus making him distantly related to Queen Elizabeth I and King Edward I. He has an older sister, Soumaya Keynes.

Cara Mudah belajar Gitar

1. Mengenal Jenis Musik. Pada tahap awal in, Anda hanya diharapkan dapat mengenal jenis musik terlebih dahulu. Baik itu jenis musik rock-balad, pop-balad maupun alternatif. Mengapa Balad dan alternatif, karena 2 jenis musik ini dominan menggunakan instrumen gitar dalam penyajiannya. Sehingga diharapkan anda lebih terfokus mengenal nada-nada yang dihasilkan instrumen gitar, karena berlatih dengan menggunakan lagu akan lebih cepat dibandingkan anda menghafal chord demi chord. Lagu-lagu balad yang sering digunakan oleh pemula dalam belajar gitar seperti Love of a Livetime (Fire House), Children Cry (White Lion) ataupun Love Of My Life (Extreme). Karena selain lagunya bagus, akan terdengar expert walau sebenarnya sederhana dalam memainkannya.
2. Memiliki Gitar. Memiliki gitar memang bukan merupakan hal yang wajib, namun sangat berpengaruh terhadap akselerasi Anda dalam menguasai instrumen ini. Ada beberapa jenis gitar yang perlu anda kenal yaitu : gitar nylon, string dan electric. Untuk tahap belajar, Anda lebih baik memilih gitar dengan tipe nylon, karena selain ringan dipetik, jari-jari tidak terlalu terluka (berkapal) ketika jari anda membuat chord. Gitar Nylon juga digunakan dasar untuk berlatih musik klasik, jadi bagi anda yang kemudian tertarik untuk menekuni gitar klasik, hal ini akan sangat menguntungkan
3. Mengenal Chord Dasar. Pada tahap ini, anda sudah mulai malakukan pengenalan awal teknik bermain gitar dengan mempelajari kunci-kunci dasar yang mudah diterapkan seperti Am, Em, G, C atau F. Setelah lancar menghafal dan berpindah dari satu chord ke chord yang lain, tingkatkan pemahaman chord anda dengan chord-chord lain yang lebih sulit. Berikut ini beberapa chord yang bisa anda pelajari:

Keterangan : Huruf di atas merupakan nama chord gitar. Garis vertikal merupakan senar gitar. Garsi horisontal merupakan fret (kolom) pada gitar. Titik bulat hitang angka 1=jari telunjuk, angka 2=jari tengah, angka 3=jari manis, angka 4=jari kelingking. Tanda silang menunjukan bahwa senar gitar tidak dipetik/dibunyikan

4. Mengenal Memetik dan Menggenjreng. Dua jenis cara memainkan gitar ini sebaiknya anda ketahui. Menggenjreng lebih mudah dibandingkan dengan memetik. Karena memetik membutuhkan koordinasi khusus antara tangan kanan dan tangan kiri anda. Mulailah dengan petikan teratur dari atas ke bawah, bawah ke atas dan kombinasi keduanya, dengan ketentuan satu senar satu jari.
5. Mempelajari Nada Sebuah Lagu. Yang dimaksud mempelajari nada adalah mencari chord untuk nada-nada pada lagu. Hal ini berguna untuk melatih filling anda terhadap suatu nada. Mekanisme yang paling sederhana adalah dengan memutar lagu berformat mp3/mp4 dengan Jet Audio atau Winamp. Dengan tools ini musik bisa dipelankan, di-pause bahkan diputar balik, tanpa merusak pita seperti halnya kalau Anda menggunakan cassette. Untuk memudahakan pemahaman anda dalam mengenal lagu, ada Aturan dasar bakunya bahwa secara umum lagu hanya terdiri atas : Intro_01-Intro_02-Chorus-Reff-Intro_02-Chorus-Reff-Melody-Reff. Dimana masing-masing bagian memiliki kumpulan chord yang sama.
6. Mencari Guru Gitar. Guru gitar yang dimaksud dapat berupa seseorang/teman yang lebih ahli dari anda ataupun video berlatih gitar. Hal ini akan memacu anda untuk bisa seperti guru anda bahkan melebihi.
7. Tekun. Kunci dari semuanya adalah tekun. Karena Steve Vai, salah seorang dewa gitar, pernah berkata, “untuk bermain dgn sangat cepat, mulailah dgn yg sangat lambat…“. Mekanisme yang perlu Anda lakukan hanyalah berlatih Fingering atau senam jari secara teratur, berlatih berpindah chord maupun berlatih melodi.

take that - the flood

Standing, on the edge of forever,
At the start of whatever,
Shouting love at the world.
Back then, we were like cavemen,
We’d beam at the moon and the stars,
Then we forgave them.

We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders, of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around they’ll run so hard we’ll tear the ground away.

You know no one dies, in these love town lies,
Through our love drowned eyes, we’ll watch you sleep tonight.

Although no one understood we were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
We were holding back the flood they said we’d never dance again.

Bleeding, but none of us leaving,
Watch your mouth son or you’ll find yourself floating home.
Here we come now on a dark star, seeing demons, not what we are.
Tiny minds and eager hands will try to strike but now will end today.

There’s progress now where there once was none, where there once was ah, then everything came along.

Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood learning how to dance the rain.
There was more of them than us now they’ll never dance again.

Although no one understood there was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain, We were holding back the flood they said we’d never dance again.

We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders, of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around they’ll run so hard we’ll tear the ground away.

Although no one understood, there was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain.
(learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us now they’ll never dance again.

Now we’ll never dance again.

Oh ahh, Oh ahh, Oh ahh, Oh ahh, Oh aah, Oh ahh, Oh ahh...
