They are a synth duo band that is made up of an eccentric women with a dramatic flare, Elly Jackson and a man that up until late he was content with playing a background role, Ben Langmaid. Many of the album track are written by Jackson about her 5 year on again off again relationship, and together they attribute much of their musical influence to 80's pop band like Human League, Blancmange, Yazoo and Heaven 17. The very first album release is a self entitled album that has all the sounds of an 80's synth pop band and some of the 80's look as well. No matter what the look their sound is still extremely impressive. It is always a risk purchasing an album from a new band, but I can honestly say that this album is worth it. Two of my favorite tracks, on the album are Quicksand and Bullet Proof. I do wish, however that Langmaid would make himself more noticeable, as it seems like there is a single performer in the group.

5 damaging mistakes guitar

Here are 11 key mistakes guitar players make and repeat over and over again that you should definitely avoid.

1. Taking Guitar Lessons From Ineffective Guitar Teachers. Unfortunately, most electric guitar teachers receive ZERO training on how to teach guitar. What is worse is that the vast majority of teachers do little or nothing to improve their guitar teaching skills. Type in this keyword phrase: ‘improve guitar teaching skills’, ‘guitar teaching skills’, or ‘guitar teaching training’ and you will find that less than 10 searches per month are done for these topics at google! Of course there are some highly effective electric guitar teachers around, but there are a whole lot more ineffective teachers. Here is a free resource on how to tell the difference between the good guitar teachers and the mediocre ones, free guide: how to find a guitar teacher:

2. Seeking New Guitar Information (tricks, tips, tab) Without A Proven Strategy To Reach Your Specific Musical Goals. We need information, advice, help and music to play, but without a proven strategic learning and training process that is specific to you, your skill level, your musical style and what you want to be able to do as a guitar player, information won’t get you where you want to go. It is better to first seek help in developing a customized strategy for you to become a better guitar player.

3. Most guitar players are not specific enough when they think about (or tell others about) what they want to be able to do with their guitar. How can you (or your guitar teacher) develop a specific and effective guitar training strategy unless the goals you have are specific? You can always change your goal later if you discover you want to do something else instead.

4. Not Enough Focus On Things That Matter Most To Making You A Better Guitar Player. Have you fallen into the trap of practicing guitar without focusing on the specific things that can quickly begin to improve your guitar playing? Mark was studying sweep picking arpeggios with his previous teacher, and was making some progressMark’s previous teacher only knew how to ‘teach’ arpeggios and general sweep picking concepts.

5.In addition to not focusing on specific things, many guitar players focus on the ‘wrong things’. Some enthusiastic guitar players become temporarily obsessed with things which are distractions from other things that could be helping their guitar playing much more. I was not investing my guitar practice time wisely by focusing on the things that mattered most to making a better guitar player. In other words, my perseverance was commendable, but my strategy to master important long-term goals was weak. Focus on the things that really matter for your guitar playing right now.
