0:00:12.063,0:00:12.926
Hi, how're you doing?

0:00:12.926,0:00:13.933
Justin here.

0:00:13.933,0:00:15.817
Welcome to IM-125,

0:00:15.817,0:00:17.214
where we're checking out

0:00:17.214,0:00:18.598
some more rhythm guitar.

0:00:18.937,0:00:21.097
And in this lesson[br]we're going to be focusing

0:00:21.097,0:00:23.713
our attention on "Accents"

0:00:23.713,0:00:25.987
which is a really, really cool part

0:00:25.987,0:00:28.307
of 16th note[br]rhythm guitar playing.

0:00:28.492,0:00:31.093
Now, generally when you're [br]playing 16th notes

0:00:31.093,0:00:32.422
as you've been doing already.

0:00:32.422,0:00:34.829
You know that you're going to [br]keep your hand moving all the time

0:00:34.829,0:00:35.977
and that you're going to be playing

0:00:35.977,0:00:37.925
four movements per beat,

0:00:37.925,0:00:39.188
so like, you know

0:00:39.188,0:00:39.929
1 e & a,

0:00:40.007,0:00:41.060
2 e & a,

0:00:41.184,0:00:42.088
3 e & a,

0:00:42.242,0:00:42.884
4 e & a

0:00:42.884,0:00:44.993
. . .

0:00:45.071,0:00:47.433
that's really important, right?

0:00:47.433,0:00:48.580
So what we're looking at now

0:00:48.580,0:00:49.910
is the idea of an "Accent".

0:00:49.910,0:00:51.611
Now, in "accenting" I'm meaning

0:00:51.611,0:00:54.063
some are going to be [br]louder than others.

0:00:54.063,0:00:57.163
Now, if you're already playing [br]with your volume on 10

0:00:57.163,0:00:58.982
you're not going to be able [br]to add an accent.

0:00:58.982,0:01:01.477
So try and be aware of how hard

0:01:01.477,0:01:02.612
or softly you're playing.

0:01:02.612,0:01:03.807
See if you can play

0:01:03.807,0:01:06.421
and then accent [br]the first one of each beat.

0:01:06.421,0:01:07.245
So you'd be doing like:

0:01:07.245,0:01:10.560
LOUD soft soft soft, LOUD soft soft soft.

0:01:10.560,0:01:11.022
this kind of:

0:01:11.022,0:01:16.610
. . .

0:01:16.610,0:01:17.238
1 e & a,

0:01:17.345,0:01:18.833
2 e & a,

0:01:18.971,0:01:20.437
3 e & a,

0:01:20.592,0:01:21.564
4 e & a

0:01:21.748,0:01:26.983
. . .

0:01:26.983,0:01:30.767
Now, you should be ok with this, I hope.

0:01:30.767,0:01:34.777
You should also be [br]tapping your foot on the accents.

0:01:36.377,0:01:38.025
Now, one way to think of it is as well,

0:01:38.025,0:01:39.177
if you're struggling[br]with the accent,

0:01:39.177,0:01:41.705
is rather than [br]trying to make the beat 1 louder

0:01:41.705,0:01:44.138
you're trying to make [br]all of the other ones quieter.

0:01:44.138,0:01:45.309
And a really good exercise is

0:01:45.309,0:01:47.242
to just really hold your pick lightly

0:01:47.242,0:01:49.460
because that's a good way [br]of kind of adjusting your volume

0:01:49.460,0:01:51.213
is how hard or soft [br]you hold your pick.

0:01:51.213,0:01:53.660
So if you hold the pick as[br]lightly as you can

0:01:53.660,0:01:54.794
without dropping the thing

0:01:54.794,0:01:57.662
and trying just to get the motion.

0:01:57.662,0:01:59.704
. . .

0:01:59.704,0:02:01.561
Now I'm just holding all[br]the strings down

0:02:01.561,0:02:03.476
with my left hand,[br]my fretting hand,

0:02:03.476,0:02:05.602
they're just kind of,[br]all of them are on the strings.

0:02:05.618,0:02:07.341
. . .

0:02:07.341,0:02:08.562
and now :

0:02:08.562,0:02:09.596
1 e & a,

0:02:09.750,0:02:10.775
2 e & a,

0:02:10.852,0:02:11.964
3 e & a,

0:02:11.964,0:02:13.059
4 e & a

0:02:13.059,0:02:15.555
really trying to get that accent[br]on the beat

0:02:16.479,0:02:17.805
and the other ones really -

0:02:17.805,0:02:19.476
they're just touching,

0:02:19.476,0:02:21.525
there's nothing going on [br]too heavy there,

0:02:21.525,0:02:22.792
that's the important part

0:02:22.792,0:02:24.788
is to get that differentiation between

0:02:24.788,0:02:27.826
the really loud one and [br]the really soft one.

0:02:27.826,0:02:30.531
The bigger difference [br]you can learn to make the better.

0:02:30.531,0:02:32.709
You might not have a really loud accent

0:02:32.709,0:02:34.227
and the others quiet, [br]might sound a bit weird

0:02:34.227,0:02:35.426
but you wanna be able to,

0:02:35.426,0:02:38.025
you wanna be in control of [br]what you're doing

0:02:38.025,0:02:39.894
so it's worth practicing [br]that as well.

0:02:39.894,0:02:43.306
Now, accenting kind of occurs,

0:02:43.306,0:02:45.182
lots of times when you're[br]just playing regular patterns

0:02:45.182,0:02:46.654
some would be louder than others

0:02:46.654,0:02:47.893
that's just how it is.

0:02:47.893,0:02:49.313
And that kind of -

0:02:49.313,0:02:50.765
you should find that happens naturally,

0:02:50.765,0:02:53.268
you shouldn't be trying to think[br]about it too much

0:02:53.268,0:02:54.984
in just regular strumming

0:02:54.984,0:02:56.634
but what you'll find is

0:02:56.634,0:02:58.621
that you can actually use accents

0:02:58.621,0:03:01.117
to make up a rhythm groove.

0:03:01.117,0:03:02.740
The pattern we're gonna be checking out today

0:03:02.740,0:03:04.669
is a very, very commonly used one,

0:03:04.669,0:03:06.690
sounds really good, it's very useful,

0:03:06.690,0:03:08.416
lots of ways of kinda varying it

0:03:08.416,0:03:10.709
to fit whatever tune you're playing.

0:03:10.709,0:03:12.551
So, it's a little bit complicated

0:03:12.551,0:03:14.099
and that's the only kind of a down side.

0:03:14.099,0:03:15.418
I wanted to find a really, really good one

0:03:15.418,0:03:17.416
but the really, really good ones are generally

0:03:17.416,0:03:18.185
a little bit harder,

0:03:18.185,0:03:20.583
so don't be upset or freaked out

0:03:20.583,0:03:22.098
if you don't get this one straight away.

0:03:22.098,0:03:24.499
The trick here [br]is to really learn it slowly.

0:03:24.499,0:03:26.317
So let me just show it to you first.

0:03:26.317,0:03:27.601
I'm gonna use an open G chord

0:03:27.601,0:03:29.609
because, you know, [br]using an open chord

0:03:29.609,0:03:31.101
is a good thing when[br]you're practicing your rhythm

0:03:31.101,0:03:32.890
because you're not freaking out[br]over your barre

0:03:32.890,0:03:34.431
or your hands not getting sore

0:03:34.431,0:03:35.073
or whatever.

0:03:35.073,0:03:37.037
You can really concentrate[br]on your rhythm.

0:03:37.092,0:03:38.234
So, I'm gonna use a G chord.

0:03:38.234,0:03:39.500
Let me just gonna play you the pattern first,

0:03:39.500,0:03:42.415
something like this: 3, 4

0:03:42.415,0:04:03.660
. . .

0:04:03.660,0:04:05.299
There's lots of different ways of doing this

0:04:05.299,0:04:07.381
if you take that same pattern

0:04:07.381,0:04:08.635
and then mute them

0:04:08.635,0:04:13.890
. . .

0:04:13.890,0:04:15.649
you get a bit of that [br]Bo Diddley rhythm, you know

0:04:15.649,0:04:20.743
. . .

0:04:20.743,0:04:21.282
1 e & a,

0:04:21.282,0:04:21.836
2 e & a,

0:04:21.836,0:04:22.343
3 e & a,

0:04:22.343,0:04:22.921
& 4

0:04:22.921,0:04:26.669
very, very common [br]little rhythm pattern.

0:04:26.669,0:04:27.537
Very useful.

0:04:27.537,0:04:30.335
So, what we have to do is figure out

0:04:30.335,0:04:31.369
where the accents are

0:04:31.369,0:04:32.802
and they're every three.

0:04:32.802,0:04:34.774
Now I'm hoping that maybe some of you

0:04:34.774,0:04:37.294
have been counting[br]your 16th notes before,

0:04:37.294,0:04:38.146
so you're familiar at least

0:04:38.146,0:04:39.477
with the idea of counting like

0:04:39.477,0:04:40.555
1 e & a,

0:04:40.633,0:04:42.356
2 e & a,

0:04:42.418,0:04:43.890
3 e & a,

0:04:43.952,0:04:45.532
4 e & a.

0:04:45.886,0:04:48.837
Now, you'll notice on - if you look at the -

0:04:48.837,0:04:50.812
it's a really good idea to look at this, right?

0:04:50.812,0:04:52.142
So hopefully you're on the web site

0:04:52.142,0:04:54.044
and you're viewing the video [br]on the web page

0:04:54.044,0:04:56.042
the IM-125 web page

0:04:56.042,0:04:58.559
if you're not, maybe go to the site

0:04:58.559,0:05:00.193
so you can see this rhythm groove

0:05:00.193,0:05:00.993
written out there

0:05:00.993,0:05:03.815
and you'll see that [br]there's an accent above,

0:05:03.815,0:05:06.226
the accents kinda look like a little arrow thing,

0:05:06.226,0:05:08.047
is above the 1,

0:05:08.047,0:05:10.547
the 'a' that comes after 1,

0:05:10.547,0:05:13.371
the '&' after 2,

0:05:13.371,0:05:15.379
the 'e' after 3

0:05:15.379,0:05:17.322
and on beat 4.

0:05:17.322,0:05:20.111
So if I just go back to [br]muting again like this,

0:05:20.111,0:05:22.170
I'll just gonna play the accents now

0:05:22.170,0:05:23.171
so we got this:

0:05:23.171,0:05:24.604
1 e & 'a'

0:05:24.604,0:05:26.330
2 e '&' a

0:05:26.330,0:05:27.970
3 'e' & a

0:05:27.971,0:05:29.645
'4' e & a

0:05:29.645,0:05:31.272
1 e & 'a'

0:05:31.272,0:05:32.799
2 e '&' a

0:05:32.799,0:05:34.317
3 'e' & a

0:05:34.317,0:05:36.085
'4' e & a

0:05:36.085,0:05:38.175
And what I'm just doing is a really great way

0:05:38.175,0:05:39.406
for you to practise doing it

0:05:39.406,0:05:41.524
rather than trying to just do it[br]with the chord right away.

0:05:41.546,0:05:42.988
If you do it with the muted strings

0:05:42.988,0:05:45.421
keeps it quieter, [br]allows you to concentrate more

0:05:45.421,0:05:47.970
on the rhythmic aspect of the pattern

0:05:47.970,0:05:49.577
rather than thinking just about the notes.

0:05:49.577,0:05:51.670
I know you would be thinking[br]about the rhythm anyway

0:05:51.717,0:05:52.947
but as soon as the chord is there-

0:05:52.947,0:05:55.007
that muddles things up for the ear[br]or something.

0:05:55.007,0:05:56.979
But people definitely learn it quicker

0:05:56.979,0:05:58.739
if they've got their hand covering [br]the strings there.

0:05:58.739,0:06:00.572
So I'll say it again,

0:06:00.572,0:06:02.387
now if you can maybe join in with me

0:06:02.387,0:06:04.257
and we're just doing it at this speed

0:06:04.257,0:06:06.237
like: 1 e & a.

0:06:06.237,0:06:08.211
That's the speed that we're going for.

0:06:08.211,0:06:10.538
3, 4, here we go, so:

0:06:10.538,0:06:12.247
1 e & 'a'

0:06:12.247,0:06:14.043
2 e '&' a

0:06:14.043,0:06:15.880
3 'e' & a

0:06:15.880,0:06:17.344
'4' e & a

0:06:17.344,0:06:17.855
down,

0:06:18.579,0:06:19.072
up,

0:06:19.764,0:06:20.357
down,

0:06:20.727,0:06:21.401
up,

0:06:22.016,0:06:22.599
down,

0:06:23.630,0:06:24.828
1 e & 'a'

0:06:25.013,0:06:26.117
2 e '&' a

0:06:26.178,0:06:27.877
3 'e' & a

0:06:27.938,0:06:29.128
'4' e & a

0:06:29.220,0:06:30.745
Now, you did remember, [br]didn't you,

0:06:30.745,0:06:32.490
that if it's a beat

0:06:32.490,0:06:34.913
like a 1, 2, 3 or a 4

0:06:34.913,0:06:35.935
or an '&'

0:06:35.935,0:06:37.596
it's gonna be an down strum

0:06:37.596,0:06:39.073
and the 'e' and the 'a'

0:06:39.073,0:06:41.185
are going to be the [br]up strums.

0:06:41.185,0:06:42.420
So that's how we get this

0:06:42.420,0:06:44.142
'DOWN, up down,

0:06:44.142,0:06:45.547
UP, down, up,

0:06:45.547,0:06:46.661
DOWN, up, down,

0:06:46.661,0:06:48.051
UP, down, up,

0:06:48.051,0:06:49.982
DOWN, up, down, up'.

0:06:50.197,0:06:51.537
That's how we get the pattern.

0:06:51.537,0:06:52.538
Have a look at the -

0:06:52.538,0:06:54.538
Look at it visually and [br]do it really slowly.

0:06:54.538,0:06:56.089
It's also interesting to notice

0:06:56.089,0:06:57.737
that it's groups of three, so it's:

0:06:57.737,0:06:58.972
1, 2, 3

0:06:59.049,0:07:00.032
1, 2, 3

0:07:00.155,0:07:01.017
1, 2, 3

0:07:01.093,0:07:02.246
1, 2, 3

0:07:02.324,0:07:03.569
1, 2, 3, 4.

0:07:03.692,0:07:06.263
The little 4 at the end [br]just muddles things up a bit.

0:07:06.371,0:07:07.382
1, 2, 3

0:07:07.489,0:07:08.281
1, 2, 3

0:07:08.342,0:07:09.168
1, 2, 3

0:07:09.246,0:07:10.190
1, 2, 3

0:07:10.267,0:07:11.355
1, 2, 3, 4.

0:07:11.494,0:07:12.336
Down

0:07:12.336,0:07:13.312
Up

0:07:27.887,0:07:29.245
'4' e & a

0:07:30.368,0:07:32.403
It's gonna be some practising here.

0:07:32.403,0:07:34.411
Like I said,[br]it's a little bit tricky this pattern

0:07:34.411,0:07:36.591
but it's such a good one [br]and it's so useful

0:07:36.591,0:07:38.763
that I wanted to do this one.

0:07:38.763,0:07:41.277
If you get really stuck[br]you can just kind of try

0:07:41.277,0:07:42.910
adding in a couple of the accents.

0:07:42.910,0:07:44.029
Maybe the first two and just go:

0:07:44.029,0:07:44.918
'1' e & a,

0:07:44.918,0:07:45.801
'2' e & a

0:07:45.801,0:07:46.826
3,

0:07:46.826,0:07:47.799
4.

0:07:48.106,0:07:48.634
'1' e

0:07:48.634,0:07:49.159
& 'a'

0:07:49.159,0:07:49.854
2,

0:07:49.854,0:07:50.720
3,

0:07:50.720,0:07:51.326
4.

0:07:51.326,0:07:52.806
You could do that, [br]that kind of works, you know

0:07:52.806,0:07:54.800
but I think the best playing here

0:07:54.800,0:07:57.232
is really just to do it really slowly[br]and get it right.

0:07:57.232,0:07:59.224
So even if you slowed it down to like

0:07:59.224,0:08:01.529
1 e & 'a'

0:08:01.529,0:08:03.936
2 e '&' a

0:08:03.936,0:08:05.843
3 'e' & a

0:08:05.843,0:08:08.064
'4' e & a

0:08:08.064,0:08:10.101
1 e & 'a'

0:08:10.101,0:08:11.830
2 e '&' a

0:08:11.830,0:08:13.664
3 'e' & a

0:08:13.664,0:08:15.528
'4' e & a

0:08:15.528,0:08:17.729
Doing it at that speed [br]and getting it right -

0:08:17.729,0:08:19.997
you can kinda see now I guess

0:08:19.997,0:08:21.530
the importance of being able to count

0:08:21.530,0:08:24.265
this '1 e & a, 2 e & a, 3 e & a, 4 e & a' thing.

0:08:24.265,0:08:27.050
It's a bit - takes a little bit of practice

0:08:27.050,0:08:28.785
like everything else, you know.

0:08:28.785,0:08:30.815
Practice saying it over and over again

0:08:30.815,0:08:32.614
is a good way to[br]get it under your tongue

0:08:32.614,0:08:34.931
and then when you come to say[br]a rhythm like this -

0:08:34.931,0:08:35.928
I can almost like

0:08:35.928,0:08:39.231
1 e & 'a', 2 e '&' a, 3 'e' & a, '4' e & a

0:08:39.231,0:08:42.197
1 e & 'a', 2 e '&' a, 3 'e' & a, '4' e & a

0:08:42.197,0:08:44.217
It is like a sort of funny rap thing

0:08:44.217,0:08:46.878
but you can get the feeling [br]of the rhythm right away

0:08:46.878,0:08:49.451
without even playing the instrument

0:08:49.451,0:08:50.529
just looking at it or whatever.

0:08:50.529,0:08:52.567
I can look at a rhythm and [br]vocalise the rhythm

0:08:52.567,0:08:54.393
and I kind of know how it goes.

0:08:54.393,0:08:57.177
So, take your time on this.

0:08:57.177,0:08:58.630
Do it really slow.[br]That's the trick.

0:08:58.630,0:09:00.656
Make sure you're tapping your foot [br]on the beat, too.

0:09:00.656,0:09:02.455
Some people find that a little bit weird

0:09:02.455,0:09:03.755
because your foot is kind of going

0:09:03.755,0:09:11.522
. . .

0:09:11.522,0:09:13.537
Sometimes it's a little bit of an odd-feeling

0:09:13.537,0:09:14.399
when you start.

0:09:14.399,0:09:16.022
If you're not used to -

0:09:16.022,0:09:18.163
if your foot's not on autopilot yet,[br]trying to keep your foot

0:09:18.163,0:09:23.772
. . .

0:09:23.772,0:09:26.060
Try to keep that foot[br]really consistently on the beat

0:09:26.060,0:09:27.372
while you're doing an accent pattern

0:09:27.372,0:09:29.737
which is all over the beat, then -

0:09:29.737,0:09:31.370
it's a little bit tricky.

0:09:31.370,0:09:32.939
But it just takes practice.

0:09:32.939,0:09:36.339
So, speaking of practice: [br]G chord, you and me

0:09:36.339,0:09:38.348
now, let's play it [br]through slowly a few times.

0:09:38.348,0:09:40.771
So, grab your guitar[br]if you haven't already

0:09:40.771,0:09:43.655
and find a nice open G chord

0:09:43.655,0:09:46.553
I will count you through [br]a few times.

0:09:46.553,0:09:47.675
We'll just do it for a minute[br]or something

0:09:47.675,0:09:48.654
just to get used to it

0:09:48.654,0:09:51.111
because it can be [br]kind of helpful to be playing it.

0:09:51.111,0:09:53.325
You know, if I'm doing[br]a private one-on-one lesson or whatever,

0:09:53.325,0:09:54.934
then I sit there and play it

0:09:54.934,0:09:55.851
with the student for a while.

0:09:55.851,0:09:57.135
So let's see if we can do that.

0:09:57.135,0:09:58.817
So hopefully you've got [br]your guitar out right now

0:09:58.817,0:09:59.802
and you're in tune and stuff,

0:09:59.802,0:10:01.818
hopefully I'm in tune - yes, good.

0:10:01.818,0:10:02.850
So, here we go:

0:10:02.850,0:10:07.569
So: 3 e & a, 4 e & a

0:10:07.569,0:10:09.251

4 e & a

0:11:31.826,0:11:41.650
. . .

0:11:41.650,0:11:43.471
Well, I'm hoping you've got that.

0:11:43.471,0:11:44.510
Just practice.

0:11:44.510,0:11:46.825
So, real slow. [br]Taking it through.

0:11:46.825,0:11:47.832
If you can't keep up with me

0:11:47.832,0:11:49.132
go and practice a little bit [br]by yourself

0:11:49.132,0:11:50.998
and then come back[br]to this little play-along bit

0:11:50.998,0:11:52.398
it's a really good thing[br]to be doing.

0:11:52.398,0:11:53.967
Do it with a metronome[br]if you can,

0:11:53.967,0:11:55.929
remember that the metronome[br]and your foot

0:11:55.929,0:11:58.197
should be tapping [br]or clicking and tapping

0:11:58.197,0:12:00.375
on 1, 2, 3 and 4.

0:12:00.375,0:12:01.747
Which is around the beat.

0:12:01.747,0:12:03.151
So try and get used to [br]that feeling

0:12:03.151,0:12:05.121
Because that's what makes[br]it sound cool.

0:12:05.229,0:12:06.616
Just as little hint as well:

0:12:06.616,0:12:07.798
If you wanna have a bit of fun

0:12:07.798,0:12:09.606
a good thing to do is to write out the

0:12:09.606,0:12:11.447
1 e & a, 2 e & a, 3 e & a, 4 e & a

0:12:11.447,0:12:12.965
and circle some of the notes

0:12:12.965,0:12:15.132
that you're gonna do accents,[br]and you can make up

0:12:15.132,0:12:16.860
your own accent pattern grooves.

0:12:16.860,0:12:17.651
Lots of fun.

0:12:17.651,0:12:18.928
Anyway, have fun with that.

0:12:18.928,0:12:19.714
Practice hard.

0:12:19.714,0:12:21.844
Apply it to some songs[br]as soon as you can.

0:12:21.844,0:12:22.965
And I'll see you for another lesson

0:12:22.965,0:12:24.414
some time very, very soon.

0:12:24.414,0:12:25.834
Take care, bye-bye.
