Erra - Dementia (Guitar Cover)

Instrumental guitar cover of 'Dementia' by Erra from their incredible 2013 album, 'Augment'.
I do not own the rights to this song.
Augment is one of my favourite albums of all time and Dementia is probably the best song from it for me. Who doesn't love Erra?! Enjoy.
Mixed and mastered by Ryan Sturrock AKA Deceitful Conspiracy:

Gonna get me my first ever 7 string, looking forward to slapping this when I get the chance! What's the tuning of this? If I'm not mistaken, they quite enjoy the A# tuning?

Yeah Drop A#! It's originally on a 6 string though

[@genjitsu7448]

sounds like you covered and layered all of the guitar, bass, drum tones or are there backing tracks available? I would buy the backing tracks for sure, I bought the tab books! I am learning this song and it is truly difficult, it is as hard as it is magical and I will be lucky if I can make it sound only OK in a year. Difficult stretches, position changes, fast tempo's it has got them all. Just about all of ERRA's songs are extremely challenging to play.
This cover is awesome, period! Great job, must be extremely satisfying to get this work done. Cheers!

[@aidanpatrickhood5562]

Thanks so much! Stick at it, it's a pretty complex song but luckily I had time during the lockdown here in Scotland to practice it a billion times. You'll get there!
Yeah I covered all of the guitar tracks and the bass track, my friend who mixed this for me also programmed the drums and extra synths etc as closely as possible to the original.
If you want I can send you the drum, bass & synth stems we made. Fire me an email at [e-mail]

[@ellacurtis2502]

How did you learn the song? Did you buy the tab book? Fantastic job btw

[@aidanpatrickhood5562]

Thanks! Nah I just found a tab on ultimate guitar I think
