Hello YouTube, Eric Legaud from Galago Music, today for a track by Dr Dre, or Dr Dré, I dunno!
With Snoop Dog! It's a riff actually, which will last during the whole track.
It'll be played on a triad, that means in three notes,
and we'll be using the three highest strings.
It's not very difficult, you just gotta use the right fingerings,
otherwise it doesn't work. I've tried with different ones and it's not good.
Now let's zoom on the left hand, and that's all! We might not even need a zoom on the right hand because it should be fine.
So, for the left hand, here's the first position, it's 5, 5, and 5, on these strings.
Unfortunately we're not gonna use a little bar chord,
We're gonna use those three fingers here, from the pinkie to the middle finger.
The pinkie, at the end of the 5th fret, place it really against it,
this one goes in the middle, as good as it can manage, and this one as well. So it's a bit tight,
but it still works, so let's keep our cool...
You need to try and make it fit as well as possible, so that it doesn't ring like
At first there's a chance it'll sound like that, but with some practice this should do it.
For the second placing, the middle finger is going to go down one fret on the left, so on the 4th.
So we have 4, 5 and 5.
OK, for now the index doesn't do anything.
A nice suspended chord.
And finally, these two stay put, the middle finger and the ring finger,
the pinkie goes away, and the index places itself on the 4th fret.
Damn, there you go.
So it's kind of like the placing of a D minor, which you might know already,
but it is moved 2 frets higher, to give a E minor chord.
Be careful to strum only the last three strings, but do make them ring, otherwise it's a bit poor.
I'll do the three chords again.
The A minor, shit.
The suspended D.
And the E minor.
Er yeah, no sorry, that was a suspended E of course, my bad!
There you are! So, I'll just show you how it goes,
with my bloody squeaking chair!
You strum, with the right hand, 8 times on the Am.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5-
let me just get the mike a bit closer! There's some action on this video, it's crazy!
So eight times on the 5th frets chord.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Three times on the suspended chord.
1, 2, 3
And five times on the E minor.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 yeah that's it!
Ok, that way we have our eight quavers in the two bars. One last time!
You can also count it like that.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
That way we can really see the symmetry between the two bars!
OK! Well that's all for that track!
We could also add a few bass movements but they're a pain.
I just wanted to show you a cool riff that's a bit different,
If someone knows those vehicles we see in the clip, the cars that go LIKE THAT,
I'd love for you to explain to me how it works, and what it's called, I'm quite curious! There you are!
Thanks a lot, see you soon! Ciao!
