Hey I'm back and I need your help!

First off, hello everyone. Hope your lives are full of [insert awesomenees here]

My question is a Technique question, ya I know a technique question the technique category.

Ok so take a look at this video

SUGIZO - DO-FUNK DANCE


Fun stuff right?

At about 1:17 and the end 7:30 there is a guitar riff I have been trying to learn, mostly just because of that sound and texture that is made from the way Sugizo plays.

From what I can tell its like strumming like you would on full chords of half chords, and muting what the string your not playing.

If you know what the name of this is play let me know, thank you.

Let me know if I'm right, normally I would look at the tab and video together and work it out from there.

No tab as far as I know, if you find that would sick if you sent it over to me.

Let me know if I have to be more clear on what I'm trying to say here, but I hope you guys can help me out here.

Thank you and talk to you later!

If you know of a song, with a video and a tab that has this kind of style in it that would be the greatest!

Looks like what John F... Something (red hot chili peppers) does
you just play dead notes (fret hand mute) really quick, but keep your hand in position and play the note every so often.
Not sure if it has a name though

Red Hot Chili Pepppers - By the Way
He does this throughout the verses

Yeah, as domigan basically said, lift your hand up- don't press down on a fret, but mute all the strings with that left hand so that you get a muted sound out of it.

Dude thats freakin live psytrance! Damn i want to do that! Tho i dont know what the bass is doing n that song....sincebass is pure synth,anyways,twisted music!

Search for Funk lessons over youtube,this is pure groove,funk groove,liten to all those funk/disco stars from the 70's (yes,all of them) and learn their strumming patters,that way you wil develop your own rythm and groove and this stuff will be easy

Fret-hand muting,lay your hands over the string,and apply light pressure to deaden em,not to light,or youll hit harmonics,not to heavy,or they will just be dead thuds,push down hard and slowly realease pressure until you find the sound your looking for.

@AlexB ya the basses is playing that synth sound if you can believe it. SuGizo him self is also playing some chorus overdrive delay synthy sutff in the song to.

@everyone else
