I became interested in pencak silat when I was in 5th grade. at that time my parents did not give me permission to take part in this martial activity because at that time there was a lot of chaos between the pencak silat organization. my efforts don't end there. When I was in middle school, in grade 2 of junior high school, I asked my parents for permission to take part in pencak silat activities. But still, the answer is no. finally I decided to register myself with one of the pencak silat organizations in silence without the knowledge of parents. I have practiced martial arts for three months, finally my parents learned that I had practiced silat through the silat uniform that I kept in my room. I was immediately scolded and told to stop attending martial arts training. What's worse is that they advised me to just follow foreign martial arts which he said were safer. Saya menolaknya, karena saya sudah benar benar mencintai silat. After that incident I decided to stop traini

What is Drop D? Drop D is one of the secret techniques in tuning guitars that are usually used by metal or rock guitarists, by loosening string 6 in standard E tuning so that it becomes D-tone or lowered by 2 columns or 1 tone. As always, of course this type of tuning has advantages and disadvantages, here they are. Advantages -Easier when using basic keys5. Example: F5, G5, A5. -Easy to play power chords. Because usually it only involves strings number 4, 5 and 6 only. So, with one finger is enough to play the guitar with a drop D tuning. -More make the strings and neck guitar durable. Because the strings are loosened, the guitar neck is not too pulled by the strings. Disadvantages -It is difficult to use ordinary basic key locks other than basic keys5. Example: F, G, Em.

That's how little explanation about Drop D tuning. Ac
When playing sweeping arpeggio techniques, always make comments from listeners (lay people). They always say "why is it hard to play arpeggio? Playing chords is the same." indeed arpeggio and chord have similarities, but on the other hand these two techniques are very different. Here is the explanation. Arpeggio. Arpeggio is chord notes that are played one by one. so, suppose we play the D key, then the notes are played one by one. But the tone must sound or be picked one by one or the tone may not sound in the same time. Because if there is more than one note that sounds together, then it is a chord, not an arpeggio. It can be concluded that the chord and arpeggio are different, but there are similarities. In Chords, each note is played at the same time. while the arpeggio is played one by one. At first arpeggio sounds like classical music. So if you want to make your music a bit like a classic, you can use arpeggio. It should also be noted that the arpeggio and scales ar
Everyone must have different tastes, for example music. The taste of people in music or enjoying music is of course different. Starting from the flow of music, color, to the style of play. I myself as a musician have my own favorite style of music. in playing guitar I have several favorite techniques. The first technique is the Pentatonic scale Melody. Pentatonic scale is a technique that is very often used in various types of music. Pentatonic scale techniques are very much played by rock guitarists, blues and even jazz to improvise using certain progressions. The Pentatonic Scale has the format 1-2-3-5-6. To more easily we use the example of C Major Scale: C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C or 1-2-3-4-5-6-7. So to get C Major pentatonic scale we take not 1 = C, 2 = D, 3 = E, 5 = G, and 6 = A. In the 4th and 7th Pentatonic scale not used so that only 5 tones are used (C, D, E, G, A) called Pentatonic (Penta: five). I use this technique when I improvise or to fill a melody. Because it has a major t
