Bro the way you mix teaching with humor and the way you deliver both is so fun and engaging to watch... i mean i had fun learning music production from the start (despite it being pretty difficult) but your way of educating just pulls me in even more and almost makes me forget how hard it actually is... this shit makes me remember that i started out making music to have fun. I sometimes forget that until i come across another one of you vids. keep it up
The Electric Bass in the Guitar and Bass pack is particularly good for creating bass 'ghost notes'. This is what makes bass players like Jaco Pastorius sound so funky. Once you've written your bass line, go back and start adding extremely short notes in syncopated 16th positions in the high register. These notes are so short you can barely tell what pitch they are but they add a percussive magic that will bring your bass lines to life.
@ Arne Hanna: Pastorius, Erskine and Zawinul are GODS! At least 70% of what I know about Funky Bass and keyboards improvisation comes from Weather Report. So I'm gonna put a HUUUGEE Thumb up here!
I honestly didn't expect to actually finish the video. But it's unexpectedly brilliant! Good on the democratized nature of RUclips that can allow such unique voice to be published and heard!
I'm a bass player by feel and sound alone and never thought learning core and basic music theory would up my bass playing. Thanks for this video i never knew that i was doing Chromatic motion all the time i decided to use a Diminished chord/note both on my bass and electric guitar playing.
I main tuba and make hip-hop and silent hill beats. You have no idea how much the bass can make a beat or song feel so different and in many times, better. Listen to this man. Thanks for lighting more minds, underbelly.
My sister has colon cancer (not funny uggh) .... but I spit my coffee laughing! "C is for colon cancer, let's chage to E".... classic! Super easy and insightful way to create funky bass beats. Love that octave jump and step ladder technique. Subscribed instantly!
at 3 minutes in I finally understood what is meant by playing along with the drums just by showing an actual example of it! Haven't found any video that explained it that simply lol
What a perfect video. I just started with Ableton & this whole producer thing less than a month ago so everything is very new to me. I’m happy with my progress but your video has taken me from the middle of the disco with a frown to groovin in the spotlight! You rock man! Keep it coming 👏👏👏
The B part is basically the bassline from Stardust's only track, "Music Sounds Better With You." Stardust is compromised of Thomas Bangalter (silver half of daft punk, ran a label called roule), Alan Braxe (french house legend and released some tracks under roule), and Benjamin Diamond (just a french vocalist). So that probably explains why.
using midi bass plugins to emulate the funk, by placing notes on the piano roll is considered illigal in the bass world. By your accent and the lighting conditiones in your room we could already locate you and will place several bassists in your area to ensure you wont do that again. They are waring B-15 and playing long scales. Not the type of guys who are playing with guitar picks, ...if you know what I mean. By continuing to not using a physical bass, we will be forced replace your fridge with an ampeg 6x10 cabinet.

Seriously funnier than most stand up comedians and tv sitcoms

Thanks! Will try this out.
Jaco was a beast at bass solos
See MonoNeon from Ghost-Note
Great tip, and 100%

Highkey could build an entire career off of this video
