to the forum. It would be nice to talk a bit and introduce yourself rather than just posting a YT link.

Thanks - your English is just fine!
You prefer fingerstyle (like some of us)?

Re: Minor blues by Valentin Danev
I can't decide which i prefer the most,but i love the sound when you play with fingers,it's very smooth,warm and soft . I love hybrid picking and adding some country sounding licks,i also love to add some jazz phrazing and sounding things in my blues solos ,this is the only one in which i play that much time with only fingers,i was curious and i wanted to do it and see what people thing :) In conclusion i would say that i like to mix various styles of playing and various genres too,in reasonablе borders of course . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUYO5Mp3bgo you can check this,this is maybe the most "main" playing the blues. Do you have your videos somewhere in internet ? If you don't mind i will like to hear your playing :)
Re: Minor blues by Valentin Danev
I just discovered your "Bulgaria got talent" video - what did the judges say?
Technically you have it all, much better than I'll ever be, I can't give you any advice there. What you may need to be separated from the other young guitar slingers is something more personal, that's why i like your first video (with fingers) much more - you're on a good way.

Re: Minor blues by Valentin Danev
They all liked my performance,the girl was said that i got nice tone,good phrase,that is what i remember,The Actor ( Asen Blatechki) said that it was awesome,Luben Dilov ( the older man ) said that he want to hear something main if i go to the next part of the show and that three people said "YES" only Ico Hazarta ( bulgarian hip hop singer) said that i don't deserve 4 yes-es and he said "No" but he also liked the performance and i went to the next part of the show but it was only dropping out and if you go after that you go to the semi final,but i was dropped out .. and i was only broadcast on the internet page,on the TV my performance was not broadcast ..
Thank you for the kind words ,what it means " slingers" i understand generally what you mean .

Re: Minor blues by Valentin Danev
to the forum Valentin.
Sorry - a bit late coming to this - I've been having computer problems.
What a great piece of playing in the Minor blues video. Very expressive and very moody as well as skilled. I prefer music played with feeling to music just played with technical skill, but when both can be brought to the music like you do that's the best option of all.
Very fine playing on the Bulgaria got Talent video too.

Re: Minor blues by Valentin Danev
Thank you very much ! I think like you,the feeling in music is the most importantly,a guy that for me perfectly brought the two together is Guthrie Govan,such a skilled player,one of my idols .. Also Ritchie Blackmore,Gary Moore,David Gilmour .. and many more,but these are my favorites. And Nuno Bettencord.
