Artist- John Frusciante
Song- Ratiug (solo)
Album- PBX funicular Intaglio Gigilo Zone
Tabbed by frazer h.
This is how to play the solo at the end of RATIUG that comes in right after the rapper
Kinetic 9 finishes his verse. Key is C# major (orA#minor [natural minor]) .
The style that Froosh-bag is play here and on this album isnt just playing octaves note
for note
ba ck and forth, which is kindof was what I thought was happening on PBX (and outsides ep)
at first, but what is actually doing is more like playing one melody in a high range and
a different
low range melody line in alternate steps within a single passage playing one or a few notes
of one melody and then the other and then back and then forth in alternating step so it all
spound like one unified psychedelic sonic air puzzle
.
The timing and measures are pretty much in the right places and the chord
progression/bass goes
A#minor | G#major |
D#minor | F# major|
and repeats that 4 bar pattern for the rap section and thru the solo outro
Enjoy. Any correction or comment feel free below or email me at frazer.hughes@gmail.com
Solo comes in at (5:46)
