Art/Literary - Music | | English term or phrase: chugging | Thickest Chugging Ever
Aus einem Computerspiel, bei dem der Spieler mit einem speziellen Controller Gitarre spielen kann.
Leider habe ich keinen weiteren Kontext, aber 'chugging' scheint ein gängiger Begriff unter Gitarrenspielern zu sein. Weiß jemand den deutschen Ausdruck?
Vielen Dank für eure Hilfe.

| | | Chugging-Riff | Explanation:
Chugging ist ein Begriff aus dem Heavy Metal Gitarrenspiel. Now, I don't look like a headbanger, do I, but back in the olden days... anyway, as a guitarist who used to dream of having her own punk band (a long long time ago!), I would say that the term chugging is quite common among German-speaking guitarists as well. Man spricht unter den Metallern aber gern von Riffs, deshalb würde ich, um dem üblichen Slang gerecht zu werden, von einem Chugging-Riff sprechen: also für thickes chugging ever - das krasseste/geilste Chugging-Riff überhaupt o.Ä..
Unter untenstehendem Link kannst Du Dir ein Hörbeispiel von chugging anhören, und die Spieltechnik ist genau beschrieben.
Well, never though my troubled past might come in handy in my work as a translator someday. ;-) |
