@@paxonearth Just over 30 and been playing about 3 months now. Picking it up relatively fast. And I got to say I can't put it down, it's changed my life. 🤣
God Damn, girl. I'm 20 years old. I've been player bass since I was 5. and you, my friend have 64 times the funk I do. Jesus, you are like some funky bass angel.
Jackbho yah, I saw the show FLCL when I was five and immediately got a bass and started teaching myself. And I suck at upright. I play a rickenbacker electric.
FLCL? I've seen that show before. So now you have a Rickenbacker just like Haruko, cool! I play a Thunderbird IV pro, Jay Turser viola bass, and an upright that I rent from my school (I'm in grade 11) because they're super expensive.
Jackbho that's awesome, man! and yes. I still have to get my Ric repainted in Azureglo to be like Haruko's. but it's a start. XD I also have a Black Cat named Takkun from the show too. XD
Azureglo Rics look awesome. My favourite is walnut tho. I started playing bass because I was the only tall one with big hands in my strings class back in grade 7, so my music teacher said that I have to play it because nobody else was fit for it. After about a year of playing upright, I watched Flea and Les Claypool playing and thought "Holy crap I wanna do that," so I bought a Jay Turser viola bass :)
I 'found' Julia in 2021 + here I am making my way back through her covers catalogue. And here's Julia at 16 (!) already sounding like a seasoned veteran ! That awesome talent, dedication and hard work is just mind-blowing !
I've never commented on RUclips videos but i couldn't resist it this time. Seeing young people who appreciate music, listen to proper music and perform it in this way makes me feel so happy and understood. Keep doing what you're doing, cause you're amazing at it!
It sounds so perfectly similar to the studio version, the tone, feel and accuracy. amazing how much effort and talent were thrown into these 5 minutes. keep it up! subbed
Rich Junior what do you mean it’s just you hear the bass more, which is literally the point of an instrumental cover. What’s more, if you think about it, she’s playing the exact same part as Flea(who is a grand master at bass) in the song, so no it’s not better.
Siema from Finland! I've been playing for a while - I'm 35 now, started at 14. Played a lot of RHCP back in the day on guitar and bass. And I must admit I never got this bass line down on this level or even close. Sound is amazing, phrasing accurate, just grooving like hell. Only mistake I noticed was at 2:24 where I guess she meant to hit the pop a bit louder, but these things happen and that's really nothing considering how SPOT ON the whole thing was otherwise. And this was 6 years ago! No wonder she developed into what the new videos are, not only mastering but adding to some of the biggest absolute banger bass lines of the modern times. This already blew my mind. Can only humbly admire the progress and sheer talent and hard work that went to it 🤩Slapped subscribe like it was a Flea bass line 🤙
Why in blazes did 25 people bother to go thumbs down on this video??? When I was your age, Julia, I was still not using my pinky on the fretboard! You've got IT girl and you just helped a 57 year old gigging bassist figure out "Aeroplane". THANK YOU!
Check out the video by David Carracio "RHCP - Aeroplane [300th Bass Cover]", this young lady did an amazing cover but his is cool as he plays about 20 different bass guitars so you can really hear the difference sound each one has
To answer questions about Julia and her equipment. Julia is from Poland. Hi everyone! My name is Julia, I'm 18 year old self-taught bass player. I play bass since December 2013. My gear: -Sterling by Music Man S.U.B. Ray4 -Zoom B3 (interface and effects) Q: Whats program do you use for record the bass sound? A: I use Audacity Q: How do u record with such an amazing sound? A: I plug in bass to interface audio, then i record it in DAW software Q: Are you using an amp before connecting to your interface? A: I plug the bass straight to interface and then I add a little bit of compression in Audacity :) Q: Which strings / sizes do you play? A: DR Hi-Beams 40-100 Thanks for watching my videos! I don't take requests! :) Copied from her youtube home page, (and her posts).
I'm 21, I started learning bass a couple months before she did according to her channel and she's 10x better than me! I actually took lessons too for 4 years. How is she so perfect with potential of being in a band while I sound mediocre?
Years ago my dad(avid music fan, never played an instrument) and I were scrolling youtube looking up covers. One of his turns he wanted to hear a bass cover of this song. The first two or three videos we found my response was quickly "nope, lets find another." Then we found this video. He didn't understand why I was unhappy with the other cover videos until we got to this one. This is the only channel I recommend anytime I get a student interested in bass.
I've had to play that song more than 15 times live myself. You nailed all the important details, which is the hardest part of this song, you beast !! Props !!
I have become such a fan of this young lady. As a drummer I am always drawn to extraordinary bassists. Julia is just that. EXTRAORDINARY. She is doing youth right.
@@bigfootlover23 Plus, yes, there actually is. At least in the beginning, she is very, very close to what Flea actually plays in the background, only on the CD mix his slightly messier bass sound kind of drowns in the noise. Sadly. But yes, it´s one of the most funky RHCP songs.
Whoever gives this a thumbs down is void of any appreciation of how good this young lady is, she simply has "the funk", Flea would be very pleased to see and hear this video
You play with more authority than anyone else I've watched playing bass covers on RUclips. You fit right in to every song you play, on point with the time and feel, as if you wrote those basslines yourself. Keep it up, you kick ass and I hope your love and dedication to playing brings you to an awesome life of doing what you love.
Julia, you absolutely nailed it! I've watched nearly all of your videos, and you sure know how it's done. I love your timing, tone and eclectic taste. You rock girl!
You wizzard!! 😄It is such a delight to see and hear you play. The way you groove, you're technique, and "something" that turns a big smile on my face! Thank you.
You are better than any bass player I've played with and I've been playing guitar for 20+ years. Your amazing . You definitely have a bright future ahead of you. Great work.
llevo muchos años tocando esta canción, pero nunca había visto alguien que la tocará así de bien , Felicidades , que buen trabajo Saludos desde Nicaragua
How did people down vote this? This is the greatest thing I've seen on youtube in years! Lol. KILLED IT. I've been playing bass for 19 years, and you just embarrassed the hell out of me. Wtg! 👏👏👏👏
I absolutely love how the camera goes in and out of focus because of her movement and the rhythm she's riding on her left leg, especially during the walk up/downs at the end.
I've watched a bunch of your videos, and I must say you're a real talent. You're very musical, have great sense of rhythm and you have technique, too. I played the bass for a while, and I used to play along to songs and Aeroplane was one of my favorite songs to play along to. But I was never as good as you :)
Hey Julia! I became aware of your channel just a few weeks ago and I must admit: your playing is amazing!!! You nailed this very hard to play bassline to the ground with groove and expression, great!! I am a professional bass player for over 30 years and I think I have some knowledge and skills about bass playing... So, all I want to say: GO AHEAD! And don't give a shit to those 181 dislikes, there are a lot of stupid and ignorant people on this planet. Best wishes, Tom
wow...wow.....one of the best interpretation of this song...personally one of my favourite because the bass guitar, I'm a guitar player but this make me desire to learn bass
One more prove that you can make any bass sound good, this SUB just shines in the right hands : ) ... way to go! I own a Sterling , and could never make it sounds this good if I tried ; )
Wow.. I've been playing for 8 years and I'm just learning slap, and this was the first song that I'm currently learning. But this was flawless🤤 I'm jealous😤

I don’t know this girl but I am super proud of her. These bass lines are no joke! Fleas a beast and so is she
The intro was kinda weak but she picked up the slack. Cuz you know...strings? HEHEHEH
Devin Watson unbelievable she began playing 6 years back
@@michaelpark5681 Put up videos of you doing it better
@@mobiuschrome2878 I don't play the bass. But you don't need to be 'better' to judge someone's playing. You dumb fuck.
agreed , if anything I'd appreciate feedback on what to improve on .
Listening to her makes me wanna learn to play bass.
Do it! I didn't start playing bass until I was over 30 years old. I'm 54 now and a solid intermediate-level player. You'll never regret it.

6 yrs passed and this cover still legit
now 8 years n yeah still legit
10/10 This is my favorite cover of this song. The tone is perfect and she plays it with feel. Kudos!

This is the best aeroplane bass cover on RUclips. Bar far. She's got all the intricacies down
100%
I second this. she nailed every lick, slide, slaps etc
I saw her play this song and started learning it. HOLY SH*T IS THIS SONG HARD TO PLAY! But she makes it look effortless.
100%
This is one of my favorite unsigned musician performances on RUclips and it never gets old.
someone better slap me
Before I start to rust
Before I start to decompose
says the bass
Before I start to rust
Before I start to devompose....
I've only devomposed once, and man, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
I've had to play that song more than 15 times live myself. You nailed all the important details, which is the hardest part of this song,
you beast !! Props !!

Definitely my favorite bass cover, I have watched it so many times
It's fun to prefer listenning to a cover over the original song :)
There's just something I love about watching someone absolutely nail a brilliant bass line! Great job, I'm envious af!!!
Johnny Ennis for real
@Melanie Willard ? I assume you're being sarcastic? Watching and listening go hand-in-hand on this medium.
@Melanie Willard No, just a misunderstanding on my part. My apology!
Didn’t realise how much funk there was in this song
It FonKY
Julia captures the funk perfectly
Because Julia inserts the funk into the song :)
@@bigfootlover23 Plus, yes, there actually is. At least in the beginning, she is very, very close to what Flea actually plays in the background, only on the CD mix his slightly messier bass sound kind of drowns in the noise. Sadly. But yes, it´s one of the most funky RHCP songs.
How's that possible? : It's pure funk :)
No smiles. No Tom-foolery. No messing about.
Just brings the funk, Like a sledgehammer.
High five Julia.
Still can feel her vibing along
Jesus Christ with RUclips gatekeepers. “She better not be smiling while doing something she enjoys doing!”
What? Who cares what they do. "messing about" lol it's called having fun
She is awesome! I am so impressed.
Just bass. What more do you want?
Whoever gives this a thumbs down is void of any appreciation of how good this young lady is, she simply has "the funk", Flea would be very pleased to see and hear this video
coming from someone who has played bass for 30+ years, you are truly a special talent!
got caught looking at 2:23 hehe!

You fit right in to every song you play, on point with the time and feel, as if you wrote those basslines yourself. Keep it up, you kick ass and I hope your love and dedication to playing brings you to an awesome life of doing what you love.
By far the best cover I’ve seen on RUclips. None of the other top videos are in the pocket like this. Great feel, true to the song. Keep it up!!
In Scotland we have a phrase which translates as "you go girl"..
"gaun yersel hen!"
That was so tight! Love the touch of gain.
Calling her a hen is an insulting understatement. She is a breathing talent and deserves all the praise that can be given.
I’ve watch this 1 year ago, but till now its still give me the same goosebump
I was reading your bio on your channel. Self taught??? That's beyond impressive!!! You are a pure talent!
Kid, you are amazing and what even more is that you can remember all of these songs. Keep it up momma
Dayum girl, you got skills! Tone, precision, groove. You're awesome
I find the tempo of the slap bass in this song so awkward, you held it down tho! Great job!
Julia, you absolutely nailed it! I've watched nearly all of your videos, and you sure know how it's done. I love your timing, tone and eclectic taste. You rock girl!
You wizzard!! 😄It is such a delight to see and hear you play. The way you groove, you're technique, and "something" that turns a big smile on my face! Thank you.
Exellent Julia....I Hope to listen another cover of RHCP :) Soul to Squeeze please !!!!!!!
0:49 the transition to slapp is insane
Let's see. Swing (check), Swag (double check), Awesomeness (triple check). This performance is nothing short of amazing.
You are better than any bass player I've played with and I've been playing guitar for 20+ years.
Your amazing . You definitely have a bright future ahead of you. Great work.
Good Job! I'm a RHCP's fan and a bassist too. You're awesome.
Greetings from Chile :)

This was played so damn confidently, Flea would be proud. You're really squeezing all the groove out of those riffs that you can get.
All I can say is WOW even the camcorder is having trouble focusing with all of this energy and pure power of the funk
"Oh THAT's what he does!" x 20. I've been messing with this for years and NOW I'm going to crack it. Thanks Juliaplaysgroove ! You are phenomenal.

Something tells me we are going to be hearing more from this great player!
