Improvising over one chord for long stretches of time can be a musician's best friend or worst nightmare. With no harmonic variation, we are left to generate interest through our lines, phrasing, and creativity. When I started learning to improvise, a minor 7 chord and a Dorian mode were the only sounds that I wanted to hear at the time. I found it tremendously helpful to have the harmony stay in one spot while I mined for new ideas to play. Playing over a static chord was crucial in developing my sense of time and phrasing.

The high priest of prog-metal guitar, John Petrucci, is still finding new territory on his instrument.

The legendary progressive-metal guitarist details the darknessā€”and the renewed camaraderieā€”that led to his band Dream Theaterā€™s 16th full-length record, Parasomnia.

Some very important events happened in John Petrucciā€™s life in 2024. He celebrated an enormous milestone with his bandmates in prog-metal behemoth Dream Theater: Theyā€™ve been a band for 40 years. Many bands arenā€™t destined to last a single decade, let alone four. Itā€™s a titanic personal and artistic achievement. And yet, that anniversary paled in significance next to another major development: The band wrote and created a new full-length record with founding drummer Mike Portnoy, who had been absent from Dream Theater since 2010.

When you imagine an ideal creative space, what do you see? A loft? A barn? A cabin far from distraction? Reveling in such visions is inspiration and a beautiful escape. Reality for most of us, though, is different. Weā€™re lucky to have a corner in the kitchen or a converted closet to make music in. Still, thereā€™s a romance and sense of possibility in these modest spaces, and the 15-watt, 1x10, all-tubeSupro Montauk is an amplifier well suited to this kind of place. It enlivens cramped corners with its classy, colorful appearance. Itā€™s compact. Itā€™s also potent enough to sound and respond like a bigger amp in a small room.
