For those interested in the signal chain: Guitar > boss es-8 split off to two amps > Victory VX100 & VC35 > UA capitol chamber reverb & Galaxy Tape Echo > Logic Pro X I added some EQ to carve out some of the low end resonance of two amps with tons of reverb, then added Oxide Tape Sat to the master and a limiter.

It's very cliche to say, but you can absolutely speak through your guitar. It's the most magical thing I've ever heard in my life. To be able to compose an electric guitar song with nothing but the guitar and a few ambient effects is complete mastery of an instrument and song writing. You're the best Rabea and thank you for sharing.

Movie producers would pay big money for this sort of stuff. Ever considered that? I think you'd do great.

You have the ability to play with a lot of feel. I felt like I was in another dimension and got lost in it. One of the top guitar players in my book right here!

You have no idea what this song means to me at this point in my life. I have had it on repeat the last few days since you released it to google play music. You know when you have a really emotional moment and a song plays and you can no longer listen to it anymore because the pain is too strong, or one that reminds you of a time when good times were had. This songs the perfect blend of both for me. I've been through hell the last week and I'm sat here crying in relief. this song is going to stick with me for life I can feel it. As a muscian myslf this is something I strive to do, reach that one person. You have just done this for me. At some point I would love to explain what you have just done for me, but for now let me have this moment.

A year on I still listen to this song with the memory of that time. I have a playlist on spotify now and this song is the first one in that list which I've called "Neck hairs". Because it makes them stand on end. You are still an inspiration to my writing and I listen to it every so often with a great regret and sorrow for the past experience. But the meaning in this tune has changed for me. The intelligent emotional content you bring us is cherished by thousands, I'm sure of it.

Perfectly beautiful. Firstly, I think this captures the sadness we all feel about what's happening to the world right now, and secondly, there's something about the opening 60 seconds which speaks to your roots. Hey, if being shut off and closed in gives us this, then every cloud does in fact have a silver lining. Best wishes to anyone out there suffering losses, and hardship.

And for 3:14 everything was all right. Thank you Rabea for this masterpiece.

We need more stuff like that for our quarantine. Music is the cure for our soul and bodies, thank you for share this with us

I genuinely think Rabea is a world class musician. More importantly he seems like a lovely guy. That's a rare mix. I love this and all the Toska stuff. Please make an album with tracks like this.

Please do a solo album. A bit of ambient, a bit of riffage, a bit of shred. You’re recording technique is great, the sound is great, the playing is great. It’s really listenable. More please!

Watching and listening to this all alone, cold in the night, and locked down due to government restrictions around COVID-19 ... And damn, what a feeling ! I truly felt warm vibes enveloping my tiny shitty headless body, like being around a fire in the middle of icy cave. Power of music ... Thanks SO MUCH for releasing this song, you have no idea, it's way beyond everything you can imagine.

Beautiful man. You have so much talent. I'd love to hear a video explaining how you write these ambient type pieces. They are so emotive and powerful.

Doesn't he figure out some chord progressions that sound good, and then add some arpeggios and lead bits to flesh it out? What are you hoping to see in a tutorial? Just a list of effects and pedals that are being used? My only question is, do you record to a click track with songs that lack any percussion? When I did my first amateur recordings I'd just play to my own time, but then I found that just 'winging it' makes it VERY difficult to add overdubs...

Bro, I’ve been teaching myself guitar for 4-5 years now, not made much progress as I can only really do open and power chords. After doing your online lessons after a day I’ve learnt more than I did in 4 years by myself! Thanks man!

Man, that's awesome! Makes me think of a cinematic in a game like Dark Souls or Nier. A yellow sunset in a quiet coastal village. The wind slowly picks up, lightning is heard off in the distance as a storm is brewing out on the ocean. The town bells ring hauntingly over the rising gale. The storm breaks over head and slowly drowns out the fading guitar as the last rays of golden sunlight disappear behind the clouds.

This song has been very soothing yet also has powerful emotion behind it.

Just sitting outside my house, night.... dark, clear sky full of stars, with cup of coffee and Asylum in the ear phones... Im in a different dimension again... Thanks Rabbea. Masterpiece

I’m a new dad, and this song is my 7 month daughters new favorite lullaby and totally calms her down. Thank you for releasing this on Spotify! I discovered you through your work on Anderton’s and that pedal show - I’m not a big metal head but your ambient work and your thoughtful product reviews have made me a huge fan. I am so so hopeful for a complete album expressing your more “modalling” style of music (calling it ambient feels like an intense oversimplification). Much love from Sam Francisco.

Always amazed by your ability to go from the heaviest riffing to something atmospheric like this. Also new sig is 10/10.

This tune makes me contemplate all my bad decisions and makes me want to better myself

This is incredible. I have a classical guitar degree in performance from the University of Toronto here in Canada and I haven’t heard anything like this in years. I’m blown away. This is truly inspiring. Incredibly sensitive and nuanced playing. Just a joy to listen hear this caliber of music played so beautifully.

Another great tune from the one and only Fro meister. Keep em coming Bea. Love you bro!

Another side of an amazing player,and seems a very nice guy.😊👍🏿

Of all the videos saved to my favourites, this is my favourite favourite.

This is such a good example of how music can speak so much without words. Absolutely gorgeous song!

This song is such a masterpeice. With no lyrics we all hear the same story, but it means something different to us all. A couple of years after release I find I am coming back to listen to this as much or more than Cliff of Dover. It still puts me in such a mood, and if I am not careful it will bring me to tears.

1:50 GOOSEBUMPS

So love this tune man… The DEPTHS!!!!

How much can be said with just one musical instrument! Amazing! And bewitching! I have already listened 30 times, and this is not enough...

I’m in tears, brother. I really felt that. I really appreciate your language, as a guitar player myself. You have the richest tone and chord voicings arranged in a vivid array that tell me the story without words. Thank you for it.

Love this, as others have said I concur your Ambient work is just amazing. I would love an album of this stuff. My current Spotify playlist is: First Kontakt, Chill Down, Hey Now, Dulcet Thing, Sunset and Pork Chops O Chunky. Please load this one to Spotify so I can add it to my Rabea Ambient Album! Keep up the awesome work.
