adamthomasmusic Leave a comment

For various reasons (listed in this video) I have decided to make channels on both Dailymotion and LBRY to go alongside my YouTube channel. Don’t worry I’m not leaving YouTube, and going forward all of my videos will be uploaded to all three platforms.

You can find me on Dailymotion under the channel name: Adam Thomas Music, and on LBRY under @AdamThomasMusic.

Also it seemed like a good time for a general channel update!

How to Restring a Bass Guitar

adamthomasmusic Leave a comment

Are the strings on your bass sounding a bit old and sad, or have they recently broken off? Need some help with how to restring your bass. Well grab yourself a new set of strings and let’s get your bass back up and running again.

If you enjoyed or found this video to be helpful then please consider subscribing 🙂

(Also, there is an edit during one of the fast forwarding sections where it looks like I haven’t tuned one of my strings correctly, there is a jump cut in between so don’t worry, it did get tuned properly).

A First Look at Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS ‘Focal Fossa’

adamthomasmusic 1 Comment
It’s April on an even year so that can only mean one thing: New Ubuntu Long Term Support releases! As both a Musician and a YouTube content creator myself I find Ubuntu Studio to be an asset to all of my creative endeavours.
Ubuntu Studio is a distribution of GNU/Linux aimed at creatives. Specifically it is aimed at Musicians/Audio Engineers, Graphic Designers/Artists and Video Creators/Editors. It is also a great operating system for Photographers, Authors and Publishers.
It has been my GNU/Linux distribution of choice for a few years now. Let’s see what can be found in the most recent version; 20.04 LTS code-named ‘Focal Fossa’.
Sorry the video is out a little bit later than expected. I have been fighting with Kdenlive to get this video made as quickly as possible.

Fender ‘Under the Influence’ – Reaction

adamthomasmusic Leave a comment

DISCLAIMER – This is not an attack or a ‘Tea’ video on Dani Miller. Instead in this video I go into what exactly is the real issue is with one of Fender’s most recent and most polarising videos. I will also explain what I believe they could do instead to improve upon the concept.

I know this video feels a bit late, but I’ve been battling my video editing software to get this made.

New Gear Day – Fender Stratacoustic (Demo)

adamthomasmusic Leave a comment

I’ve had some troubles with my acoustic guitar recently. So I thought I would treat myself to a new working guitar. It was quite hard to track down, but I was eventually able to get myself a Fender Stratacoustic.

All of the audio is a blend of my camera mic and the built in preamp plugged directly into my audio interface.

A review of this guitar is in the pipeline.

Album Pickups – February 2020

adamthomasmusic Leave a comment
First proper album pickups of this new decade. I am also using this video to experiment with a slightly different editing style. Instead of using quick fades between cuts, I am just going for a more traditional jump cut. Also I have added in some music whilst I am talking (which is my own). Let me know what you think of this adjusted editing style.
Album:
Bathory – The Return……
