I am touring a lot. I just released a new duet album with one of my biggest influences, Don Ross. It’s such an honor to be playing with him, he really influenced me tremendously. So anyway, we are doing quite a few shows together this year, in addition to my solo concerts.

I love playing with those guys. We just did about 10 concerts on the North Eastern side of the United States. Antoine’s new album “Existence” is really phenomenal and Craig has been writing new songs that sound even better than the tunes on his debut album. I think his next release will be crazy good! While we were on tour, we finished the show with a trio version of Antoine’s song “A Hiding Place for the Moon.” Craig and I just came up with some parts and it all blended perfectly! It was a great experience and made me think we should do an album together in the future… that would be awesome! Here is a link to a video of us playing the trio version of the song in New York: http://youtube.com/watch?v=u7PGz58ki5g

Well it was really one of the best experiences of my life getting to work with Don. We’ve become great friends over the last few years and it’s always such a pleasure to be around him. We are very similar in our sense of humor and our philosophy of music. I’d say the most unforgettable thing about working together on the album would have to be putting “Spirit of the West” together. It was so great to hear our ideas come together into such a cool arrangement.

You have released your new CD “The Gates of Gnomeria”,
% y- V0 c6 _: r1 W: Dwhat or where is Gnomeria?
您已经发行了新专辑<The Gates of Gnomeria>，什么是Gnomeria？或者它在哪？
Gnomeria is supposed to be an imaginary city in the depths of the earth. I am really into high-fantasy things like “Lord of the Rings” and medieval RPG video games. So drawing from those inspirations, I wanted to write a tune giving you the idea of traveling to an underground magical gnome city. Very dorky, I know… I can’t help it!

Gnomeria据说是一个深入地底的幻想之城。我对于象指环王还有中世纪的RPG游戏非常痴迷。所以借此获得灵感，我想写个曲子让你们感受到在奇幻地下侏儒城游历的情形。虽然有点傻呵呵的...但是我真是情不自禁！

8 f0 h4 a( u1 o我很喜欢您的新曲<Ebon Coast>，您能否告诉我们是什么激发了您这首曲子的灵感呢？
Ebon Coast was the first song I wrote when I got my McCollum baritone guitar. There wasn’t really a specific inspiration for the tune, perhaps the guitar itself inspired the tune! I always liked the sound of the Ivory Coast in Africa, and thought it would be cool if there were an Ebony Coast or Ebon Coast. That is where I got the name.
Ebon Coast是在我得到McCollum 中音吉他后所写的第一个曲子。对于曲子其实没有非常特别的灵感来源，可能是这把吉他自身激发了曲子的灵感！我一直很喜欢非洲象牙海岸（Ivory Coast）这个名字，所以我如果有个檀木般的海岸或者乌木海岸会很酷。这就是曲子得名的来源。（Ivory、Ebony都是制琴原料名称--译者注）

我们知道您新专辑的曲子大多在几年前就完成了，像 7-14,Ouray等等。在新的录音版本里面有没有添加新的元素呢？
Yes, I have been re-recording the songs from Nocturne and releasing them on newer albums because I was never really happy with the audio quality of that album. I originally pressed 1,000 copies of Nocturne here in the U.S. and have never reprinted it since. The tunes have evolved a bit over time, but they are essentially the same song with no drastic alterations.

Yes! Antoine’s new album is FANTASTIC! I think it is his best work yet. His compositional approach seems much more mature and all the songs are really fantastic on the album. I hope he gets a lot of attention with “Existence”. He deserves a lot of recognition for his amazing music.

Your “Art of Motion” is great, the intro part maybe the most difficult one, how to get over the bass lines when we practise it?
, A& p7 [9 D- H" r您的Art of Motion非常精彩，曲子的开场部分可能是最难演奏的地方，当我们练习时，如何才能攻克那些低音线呢？
Thanks, glad you like the tune!
There are some subtle things going on in that intro that might be a bit difficult to get at first, but just work on it and you can get it! Some of the notes are repeated a few times quickly, but it is just a combination of picked and hammered notes. For example, you might pluck the open 6th string with your thumb, hammer on the 3rd
2 W1 ~) |) @1 y& \' Z# R1 Vfret 6th string, pluck the 3rd fret 6th string with your index finger, and finally play the open 5th string with the middle finger. So with the F#AC#G#BE tuning, you get these notes in that sequence: F#,A,A,A. But each of those A notes has a different characteristic due to how they are played.
谢谢！很高兴你喜欢这个曲子！
1 n1 r$ @. m0 W- |" b在intro部分起初会有些非常绊手的地方，但是只要你坚持练习，绝对可以拿下！有些音符会快速重复出现几次，但是它们只是拨弦和击弦的结合。比如，你可以会用大拇指来弹六弦空弦，用击弦技巧打在六弦3品上，再用食指来弹六弦3品的音，最后用中指来弹开放的五弦用食指来拨六弦3品。所以，通过F#AC#G#BE调弦，你可以用以上方式得到这些音：F#,A,A,A。但是每个A的特色因为演奏的方式而各不相同。
* ]' k) t% r3 O0 @* ~9 v* q# ?And that’s the beauty of the guitar! There are so many ways to go about creating notes on the instrument.

Your style has a great influence from Don Ross, he uses thumbpick and fake nails all the time, but you just use your nails, can you tell us what is the difference between two nail styles?
. N* ~5 A$ @7 p您的风格深受阿东的影响，而他总是使用拇指套和夹指甲，但是您好像只使用指甲来演奏，您能否告诉我两种风格之间的差别吗？
I actually don’t even use nails. I have my thumb nail a bit long but everything else is very short. That was just how I started playing and it feels very awkward to me to play with nails or a thumbpick.
我实际上都不使用指甲，我只是大拇指上的指甲比较长一些，其他几个手指指甲是留得非常短的。我一开始就是这么弹琴的，我非常不习惯指甲演奏和拇指套。
Typically, if you don’t have nails your tone is much more mellow and there isn’t as much attack on the strings. It can unfortunately lead to a sort of “muddy” tone where the notes aren’t very distinct. But I think something about my unusual right hand technique has helped me avoid that muddiness. Guitar players often tell me that my tone is clear in spite of the fact that I don’t use nails or a thumb pick.
典型来说，如果你不用指甲，你出的音色就会比较圆润，弦相对的响应度就低了。这不幸的就导致了比较“浑”和不明确的音色。但是我相信我的非常的右手技巧使我很好的避免了“浑”音的出现。其他吉他手一直说我的音色出的非常干净尽管事实上我根本不用指甲和拇指套来演奏。
2 U0 [# l" c* ]' x- y4 MI would suggest to any aspiring fingerstyle guitarist to try using nails at least once and see what you think! It just didn’t work very well for me.
( }! y8 o  J. V0 \3 S# c0 L我想建议对指弹吉他保有理想的吉他手去尝试使用指甲演奏至少一次，并且想想你是怎么认为的！我只是用不惯它们而已。

You have many shows every years and you have travelled a lot, did different country and culture give you the inspiration of writing songs? Did you have any unforgettable things during the travelling time?

你每年有很多演出并且到处旅行，不同的国家和文化是否给您新的作曲灵感呢？旅程中有何难忘的事？
I actually wrote Shanghai while I was in Shanghai a few years ago. I believe you and I first met at that time! Anyway, I was really inspired by the Chinese culture and wrote that song while I was in my hotel room in Shanghai. I also wrote Nakagawa-san after spending time with the guitarist Isato Nakagawa in Japan.
我实际上就在旅程中于几年前写了Shanghai 。我相信我们是在那里第一次相逢（和老李）！总之,我受中国文化的冲击并在上海的宾馆里写了这首曲子。在日本和中川先生共度了一段日子后，我同样写出了Nakagawa-san。
It’s very nice and I feel lucky to be able to travel around the world like I do. It is such an amazing experience to see how everyone lives on this crazy planet.
我感到很高兴同时也非常幸运能到世界各地旅行。看看各地的人在这个疯狂的星球上如何生活是非常惊奇的体验。

% a5 n! `( t  C3 i$ YHeavy metal and hard rock gives me an emotion that you can’t typically find in fingerstyle guitar music. That’s why I like to listen to so many different kinds of music! You can get such amazing feelings when listening to something like “Master of Puppets” by Metallica. Or something like “September” by Earth, Wind, and Fire. They are completely different experiences but I love ‘em both!
重金属和硬摇给我的情绪你不大能够从指弹音乐里得到，这就是为何我喜欢听如此多而不同的音乐！你能从听Metallica的Master of Puppets（http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5sXk5tHbqA）里获得如此的感觉；或者Earth, Wind, and Fire乐队的September（http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5iW79VQZig）里获得另一番感受。他们是完全不同的风格，但是两个我都喜欢！


“Ebon Coast” is a very special tune, I tried to play it in standard tuning, but I cannot get the right sound, which guitar do you use in this one and what is the tuning of it?
Ebon Coast是一首非常特别的曲子，我尝试了用标准调弦来演奏，但是我始终得不到正确的声音，你用了哪把琴，如何调音呢？
Yes as I mentioned before, Ebon Coast was written on my McCollum baritone guitar. The baritone guitar is a 4th lower than a standard pitch guitar, the tuning is BEADF#B. You can play the song in standard tuning, but it will just sound higher in pitch.
6 L- |. k& Z# {恩，就像我刚才提到过的，Ebon Coast是用我的McCollum中音吉他写的，中音吉他比一般吉他调弦低四度，调弦是这样的：BEADF#B，你们可以用一般标准调弦的琴来弹，只不过调比原来高。

+ r" s: @/ [5 _! ]" ^" NI think to make an arrangement unique you should try to approach the song with the idea that you shouldn’t try to capture everything from the original recording. Just try to get the key ideas and progressions down. From there, experiment with finding unique chord voicings or techniques that can make your arrangement fresh! If you play it exactly like the original version, then what is the point? People will very likely prefer to just listen to the original recording. Try to throw something unusual in there!
0 r: S, E& ~6 W  m- j我想要使编曲变得独特，你们应该秉持一个想法就是抛开一切原曲的特色。只要抓住关键的理念和音乐的进行。由此，尝试用独特的和弦或者技巧来使你的编曲变得新鲜！如果你仅仅是和原来的曲子弹的一样，那有何意义？人们可能更愿意去听原版的录音。试试用些不寻常的花样！
