I recorded this video last year in December and decided to post it now... It's not perfect like I wanted it to be but it took so much effort to memorize I thought it was worthy enough for youtube bahaha. This was the piece I played for my Berklee audition.

Milan Polak: virtuosity one interview and review
Milan Polak Murphy's Law teaser
Its difficult to single out tracks for being the highlight of the album as there is much to enjoy on every track, and as a collection of tracks there is a very good feel to this album. Milan Polak may not be a household name, but on the strength of “Murphy’s Law” deserves to be. Great song writing, great guitar, great musicianship and great vocals are the simplest way to sum it all up. “Murphy’s Law” represents a refreshing slice of quality modern rock that should give the market leaders something rather big to worry about. Be sure to check out a.s.a.p.full review
Plus a meaty interview with the axe meister with a melodic core.
The guitar tones are generally very dry and unaffected, what do you feel this type of “earthier” tone yields in comparison to more heavily effected sounds used by many others in rock genre?
Ooooh, dangerous question. Some guitarists out there are probably going to hate me now… hahahafull interview
Ok, here we go: In many years of playing, recording and teaching I have noticed that most guitarists usually use effects to cover up the flaws in their playing performance. I am not talking about when someone uses e.g. a delay to create a certain lick or riff and the delay is part of the composition but when people use delays, reverb etc. to mask their sloppy playing. I always disliked that. Also for rhythm guitars, I feel that especially in heavier music nothing has more punch than a dry accurately played, tightly performed riff.
In addition, especially the younger generation of players has been polluted with these new, digital amps that sound like crap compared to the original real tube amps they are trying to reproduce. Unfortunately, they do not know any better because their ears have not been trained to cherish a good guitar tone. So to them this digital, sterile shit sounds good because they are used to it. But trust me, nothing has more balls than a good tube amp!
