Guitar Lessons
This is a service offered to those who want to enroll in my online guitar classes. My current rates are as follow :
40$CAD per hourly lesson
Through these courses, I aim to help, coach and guide fellow guitarists through the complex mechanics of heavy metal guitar stylings but more importantly, I aim to help them play what they hear in their heads and reach their goals. The knowledge I have gained over many years of touring and writing, producing and releasing numerous releases is openly shared through online classes that I dubbed MOLTEN CHOPS, which have a primary focus on the following :
-Exploration of guitar techniques & exercises
-Improvisation, Guitar Meditation
-Songwriting, counterpoint, harmony, theory
-Musical self-expression, confidence and conviction, fretboard fluidity
-Production
The metal scene is a place for everyone and everyone who invests time into honing their craft to play this genre should have access to all the guidance, teachings and help they are able to get to make their dreams come true and enrich the musical scene.
Consultations are free of charge.
Session guitar work
This is a service offered to those who want to hire me to record a guest solo or session guitar work on their recordings. To see my videos, click here. To hear my guitar work and my music, click here. My current rates are as follow :
120$ CAD per guest solo (under 60 seconds) - 150$ if 60 seconds or more
200$ CAD per song (1 rhythm guitar track + solos)
300$ CAD per song (both rhythm guitar tracks + solos)
These are the files that will need to be included in the client's email :
Audio tracks
Time-codes of the solo(s)
tempo-map in MIDI format
guitar pro tabs
desired audio format (24 Bit/44,1 or 48)
Guidelines (optional)
If the client or band is satisfied of the solo, I will provide a DI track of the solo (s) alongside a stem file that is to be used for re-amping reference as well as re-amping instructions which must be followed to the letter.
Add 40$ CAD on the total amount if you need these tracks to be re-amped in the case that you cannot do it yourself. In these situations, I usually have my tracks re-amped by Hugues Deslauriers whom handled all the First Fragment, Eternity's End and Chthe'ilist re-amping sessions. Payment via paypal or wetransfer are both acceptable. Thank you for placing your trust in my abilities!
Session vocals
This is a service offered to death, black and extreme doom metal bands that want to hire me to record vocal parts for their recordings/albums. To hear an sample of my vocal capabilities, click here. My current rates are as follow :
50$ CAD for a partial part
100$ CAD for a full song
These are the files that will need to be included in the client's email :
Audio track(s) & lyrics
Time-codes of the vocal section(s)
tempo-map in MIDI format
Desired audio format (24 Bit/44,1 or 48)
Guidelines (optional)
Due to having less experience doing vocals for bands other than my own and a few exceptions, I think it's fair for everyone that my fee remains lower for now.
Bands playing Funeral Doom, Death Metal, Black Metal, Grindcore and even Goregrind are welcome. Harsh, growled & screamed vocals are what I do unless you want me to pull a Jeff Hayden. I can't sing heavy/power metal (yet!)
If you need horror movie voices or video game monster sounds, I can also do that. Click here to hear a sample of what I can do with my throat alone, and that's without the use of pitch-shifters or any similar effects.
