Rock House releases Creative Fusion, Beyond Pentatonics £ Power Chords, 2 DVD features Brazilian Guitar Virtuoso Kiko Loureiro of Angra.
Rock House, the leader in music instruction, announced today the release of a new 2-set instructional DVD Creative Fusion, Beyond Pentatonics & Power Chord featuring Brazilian guitar virtuoso Kiko Loureiro. Kiko is the driving force behind the band Angra who has sold millions of CDs and toured the world several times over. Kiko is often voted by magazines and fans as one of the most talented guitar players worldwide. Young Guitar Magazine quotes “His guitar playing is top notch and can be compared to the masters like Vai, Satch and Petrucci. Kiko is a versatile guitar player with a deep knowledge of Rock 'n' Roll, Heavy Metal and Jazz which you can hear in his solos, riffs and melodies.”
In this new 2 DVD set, Kiko helps students open up their musical universe by showing how to apply fusion techniques to Rock playing. Kiko shows students a method for using arpeggios to craft amazing leads and melodies. He starts with major and minor arpeggios and triad voicings and builds them into progressions. Then expands on this concept with major arpeggio extensions adding the 7th and 9th and shows how to complete the mission by delivering full dominant and diminished arpeggios in single and cross string technique. Kiko explains and demonstrates how these all relate as tools for creating a unique musical style. Students learn modal arpeggios and how to apply them over full band backing tracks so they can start creating their own masterpieces!
Creative Fusion, Beyond Pentatonics & Power Chord is a 2-DVD set with more than 2 hours of lessons with Kiko and extras like behind the scenes photo, a personal interview, iPod ready video, performances and bonus lessons. This Rock House DVD is available around the world for $24.99. The DVD also comes with a FREE lesson booklet and membership to Rock House’s lesson support site at www.RockHouseMethod.com. This feature, exclusive to Rock House and its partners, offers students supplementary support for the lessons featured on the DVD. Once registered, students can interact with the community, utilize the additional learning tools and access the special features.

"The whole composition and recording process of the new Angra album is being filmed, and these videos will be periodically released on the band's channel on YouTube. The first 2 chapters are already online, showing how was the pre-production and composition of the songs. You'll be able to hear first hand lots of samples from the new songs, so check them out!
Right now the band is in the Norcal Studios, and drums are being recorded."
Edu Falaschi and Felipe Andreoli posted these pics of the recording sessions of the new Angra's album at Norcal Studios on their official Twitter !
Here is the official statement of the band :
"Last Wednesday, February 17th, Angra entered the Norcal Studios in São Paulo, Brazil, to record its seventh studio album, and the first one after the return of drummer Ricardo Confessori. For the first time the band will produce the record, and drum recordings have just started. Videos and reports will be added soon."
