Thanks ipodhead,

I do hear the similarity! It's a cool song: hadn't heard it before, but not my mystery piece. There's too much else going on in their mix [to be my piece]. The part I remember has the distorted guitar up front, without anything else going on. The rest of the song is a heavy mix, but this fill part is an unaccompanied solo.

I like the midi piano that melodyhound creates from the whistling; reminds me more of the gutar. Is there a way to post that to the forum? (I thought that's what I would get from posting a4ae6863211ca61c122619cbff9edfc8)

Thanks for the suggestion though !

Sounds a bit like the riff from "River deep mountain high" by Ike & Tina Turner.

Subject: Guitar figure from hard rock song [unsolved]

I have had this is my head for 5 years but can't remember any more of the song! All I know is it's hard rock, I don't know the genre (psychedelic, metal, grunge) or era (60's, 70's, 80's).

This isn't the main melody, just a very hard electric guitar solo between sections. I think this figure repeats twice leading into each section. The guitar has a lot of harsh gain, emphasizing the higher overtones. I always feel like it uses some kind of non-diatonic or micro-tonal scale.

I hope you can help; I really want to get the music for this song so I can quote it in a piano performance. Thank you.

Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.

If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:

1. Record your audio here.
2. You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
3. copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]

If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
