Nothing special, spent about an hour teaching myself Swirls from Marathon. It's based on the Craig Hardgrove version of the song. Sounds kinda shitty because it's on a cheap-ass guitar. Oh, and I kinda suck on the guitar.

I've always liked the music in M1, and wondered why they got rid of in in the sequels.

Now I'm going to have to play marathon 1 again :v:

I like it-- despite not being on a synth whateveritis, it sounds fitting. Very fitting.

If I have one suggestion, it's this: You tend to exaggerate your dynamics a bit-- I'd keep the volume just a touch steadier.

Also, nice to have you back :)

I hear ya man, I don't got the hang of putting the right amount of force into the plucks yet. Not to mention the bass pickups are hella louder than the treble ones, so I have to worry about not plucking those too hard.

Also, updated, had another take.

You should check out Craig Hardgrove's take on the song. He's got four different variations. http://www.eigenhat.com/marathon

I played it by ear without tabs. It's actually pretty simple to play. I just put a Capo on the eighth fret and went from there. I'll try to tab it though, I've never really tabbed something and put it into PDF format.

E: Tabs in PDF, first time really using Guitar Pro http://www.2shared.com/file/4692715/c2d98198/Swirls.html
