The part where Marcus temporarily stopped playing around 2:50 is the most important moment of the video. Thanks to this, the performance of Federico in that part stood out and changed the mood to a Latin accompaniment after that was also part of Marcus' power.
Marcus is incredible.. Even if he is not in his confort zone he jams with all modern jazz soloist bassist like Bona, Ferraud, Dario Deidda and here Frederico. He always keep a solid groove, tone, phrasing with those cats. Incredible class & top respect to Marcus. Big up to Frederico too
He played with Miles, I don't think he is the kind of musician who needs to worry much about being in his comfort zone, he is a top guy. victor wooten is a guy who has a comfort zone, Marcus is a different class of musician, he's a musician who happens to rock the bass, not just a simple bassist.
@@gleventhal I think you miss my point. Even if he played with Miles, he could be,..We all have a confort zone. MArcus either. I mean Marcus is not a "fast modern jazz virtuoso solist in bass fingerstyle". But he always share with those kind of cats with his own style and make it. He also as Miles did, plays with young talents. he had The same spirit when very young. Marcus met Jaco and played with him. Not all musician even great have this open mind and challenging spirit. peace ;)
@@chromaticbass i get what ur saying Marcus primary preference is jazz funk and he focuses on Groove but with marcus playing professionally since the late 70s and playing as on sideman on over 500 albums he has vast experience playing in practically every genre of music able to adapt to any situation and he was in SMV with very fast and technical bassist and they synced extremely well doing a successful album and tour but alot of those fast playing virtuoso bassist are very Jaco influenced so its hard to tell them apart ..what makes Marcus standout is his voice on the bass and signature tone and he easily identified no matter what
@@Jason5818UI Hi absolutely true ! - He is also a great composer. He can play all styles of music through his unbelievable experience and as you said he always put his own voice and what a voice !!! :) Cheers
It’s pure joy for me as well watching two of my favorite bassists and influences on my bass playing, jamming together! Awesome stuff Federico and Marcus!
Ciao Federico, capisco la comodità e i plus nell' insegnare, ma secondo me il tuo dono è questo, portare la tua musicalità nel mondo e affrontare leggende. Ti trovo tra i musicisti più completi e questo lo si sente subito con chiunque duetti. Grazie di esserci
ma quanto stà diventando un mostro sacro il nostro Fede, ogni nuovo video che vedo è sempre più bravo, ci mette tanto impegno, tanto di cappello, continua Fede il talento non ti manca assolutamente e sei sempre più ispirazione per i nuovi bassisti.
oltre... semplicemente oltre. credo che pochi bassisti in italia sappiano suonare così. non solo da un punto di vista tecnico, ma soprattutto per la conoscenza della struttura musicale e delle regole di improvvisazione. pagherei per conoscere la musica un decimo di lui. sulla tecnica, potrei anche fregarmene. ma sulla musicalità... pagherei.
KamelotEnd ....scusa se mi permetto....l.unico no....C.è un video di Deidda e Miller in cui fanno Cherokee. ...e Deidda lo spacca di brutto....Comunque fortunatamente non è una gara e tutti questi musicisti meritano un rispetto enorme...spero di sentirli suonare ancora mille volte insieme, da soli o in compagnia la goduria è sempre altissima
Fabrizio Vincitorio si, sono d'accordo con te, non è una gara perché dopotutto ogni musicista ha un suo stile, ma comunque resta il fatto che malaman se non è l'unico ma sicuramente è uno dei pochi che abbiamo nel nostro paese in grado di competere con questi mostri sacri
vero...e tra l'altro mi sembra anche simpatico...io l'ho scoperto proprio cercando dei video di Deidda...ad un certo punto è apparso un video di Malaman e sono rimasto veramente colpito. Tra l'altro mi pare che suoni sempre meglio. Lui, Deidda e Marco Panascia non mi annoiano mai!!! Buone cose
Anche secondo me Deidda è il più grande in Italia e nel linguaggio bop è superiore a Miller.Ma Miller ha altre caratteristiche,e nella fusion soul funk..è davvero fantastico
The thing that really strikes me, if we are comparing these two great players, is that when Marcus is comping, he has a lot more accenting in his phrasing, which makes the pulse feel stronger in his comping.
It's ok for what musicians decide to do w/ an instrument to evolve. Yes, I can listen to marcus' funk lines all day buy if federico picks up a bass and decides the not he gets is playing solos and playing bebop lines like Charlie Parker, I got no prob with it because it's music and the best thing about music is you do what YOU like and want to do. And he does it well! That's the true joy of music. The opposite of that would be to do what everyone else is doing...because everyone is doing it.
playin with wooten, playin with miller that would be the point where i'd consider myself done playing bass as in "i now did everything i ever wanted with the bass"
First of all Congratulations Federico Malaman, what a great and amazing sound from you!! I would like to know, which microphone was used to capture the audio for this video? hug and lots of sound!!
Martí Sanmartí you know a bass player in the context of how well they play in a band, listen to Markus in band snd you will understand why he is so popular, I know tone of bass player who are good improviser but don't mingle well in a band. Frederico is a phenomenal player but I would like to ear him more in big shows in front of thousand of fans,so far he is more of a studio player and collabo projects...
It’s incredible how Marcus Miller can make anything sound like gold! There’s a reason he’s the legend he is!
The part where Marcus temporarily stopped playing around 2:50 is the most important moment of the video. Thanks to this, the performance of Federico in that part stood out and changed the mood to a Latin accompaniment after that was also part of Marcus' power.
I bet federico and marcus miller don't even consider who is better. They are both amazing and each have their own unique cool styles and ideas!
Marcus is incredible.. Even if he is not in his confort zone he jams with all modern jazz soloist bassist like Bona, Ferraud, Dario Deidda and here Frederico. He always keep a solid groove, tone, phrasing with those cats. Incredible class & top respect to Marcus. Big up to Frederico too

If this were a competition, the winner would have to be the audience ✊✅
Thanks :-)
Thanks gentlemen. Thank you Marcus, thank you Federico.
Thanks 🙏
It’s pure joy for me as well watching two of my favorite bassists and influences on my bass playing, jamming together! Awesome stuff Federico and Marcus!
You know guys, Miller just got me with his tone and taste. No way😂 with one note he is ultra recognizable meanwhile he plays super cool phrases
Malaman is the bass wizard and an exceptional musician; Marcus is the chopin and mozart of the generation.
this is a dream come true. Marcus is a hero but Federico's tone is GORGEOUS
Bravo Federico, pochissimi hanno avuto quest onore.
Grazie mille(r)
@@FedericoMalamanBass 😂
Due musicisti strepitosi....anzi 3.....Sebo che guarda è uno spettacolo!!!
Federico Malaman: patrimonio italiano! 👏👏👏
Grazie 🙏 mille
Ciao Federico, capisco la comodità e i plus nell' insegnare, ma secondo me il tuo dono è questo, portare la tua musicalità nel mondo e affrontare leggende. Ti trovo tra i musicisti più completi e questo lo si sente subito con chiunque duetti. Grazie di esserci
Grazie :-)
Wow Federico, excellent duet with one of the giants of our time!
Marcus Miller,- keeper of the groove.
For everyone commenting: MUSIC IS A CONVERSATION, NOT A COMPETITION!
ma quanto stà diventando un mostro sacro il nostro Fede, ogni nuovo video che vedo è sempre più bravo, ci mette tanto impegno, tanto di cappello, continua Fede il talento non ti manca assolutamente e sei sempre più ispirazione per i nuovi bassisti.
Magic moment !!!
For me, yes! :-)
Such a nice jam. Malaman you are the best!
MARCUS - YEAH ... Always a pleasure !!
Marcus Miller legend and Federico is one of the fastest bass cats in the world.
Federico, great guys will always find each other :-) great jaming. greetings from Poland
Mi viene da piangere al posto tuo Federico! Ti invidio, e per come suoni, e per con chi suoni. Sei un Grande! Ciao
Tanto di cappello!!! Federico sei oltre quello che si vede-sente. Applausi!!!
Those Sires sound great :) definitely need to buy one.
please do, i'm in love with mine, awesome basses!
I like your beautiful bass lines federico
Thanks!
Love listening to these two on this.... Beyond the obvious skills, it's flat out fun.
oltre... semplicemente oltre. credo che pochi bassisti in italia sappiano suonare così. non solo da un punto di vista tecnico, ma soprattutto per la conoscenza della struttura musicale e delle regole di improvvisazione.
pagherei per conoscere la musica un decimo di lui. sulla tecnica, potrei anche fregarmene. ma sulla musicalità... pagherei.
Grazie mille! :-)
@@FedericoMalamanBass grazie mille a te!
Oh my... All I see is a beautiful duet between two MONSTERS! Malaman just made it possible!
Great
Legends 🎉
Two greats!!!
Both giants but Miller like all the legends has his signature tone and style that nobody can copy.
The point is to not copy each other. So that's good
Genius musicians !!!!
Due fenomeni
*Great!*
Здорово!
Thanks!
Spettacolo!!!!👏👏👏👏
For anyone wondering, this is a duke Ellington tune called "caravan" they are doing.
Federico, You are the best !!!!!!
That was fun to watch wow!
Wow awesome !!!👏 👏 👏
Complimenti Federico! L'unico in Italia in grado di competere con bestie sacre del livello di Miller e Wooten... Grande fonte di ispirazione!

this is the jam we've been waiting for Fede!
Wow. son increíbles, se les admira mucho, Señor Malaman, usted usa Amplificadores Proam, se pasará a Mark Bass?, Le mando muchos saludos desde México.
Thank you for that!
Great bass playing and that combo rig is the truth!
US meets Italy or backward:) Great duet! Love the music of both!
The thing that really strikes me, if we are comparing these two great players, is that when Marcus is comping, he has a lot more accenting in his phrasing, which makes the pulse feel stronger in his comping.
Marcus is MARCUS! ;-)
@@FedericoMalamanBass You're a better soloist than he is though I think. :).
someone knows the name of what federico does in the minute (6. 51)
@@luisangelyrrazabalcruz7798It's military phrasing, if I remember correctly it should be part of the muster signal
Sir, that's MM giving you a stagename! Bravisssssimo Federico "Mellowman" Malaman :)
Beautiful music🎶
so much musicality in fede's ears ....^^ guy is impressive
Amazing.
Beautiful bass duet!!
Caravan?
Vraiment excellent!!
Meloman Frederico Malaman! Good on you Frederico. You played like a king!
You are amazing. Every time I see you at NAMM, I get too scared to say anything in person, so I’ll just leave a comment on this video. :)
Geniales !!!
Il sogno di ogni bassista: avere MM di fianco che ti dice “c’mon man, I GOT YOU” 😁
SUPERMALAMAN come sempre! 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Amazing solo
Thank you Franco!
So good
Epic!!
Marcus thumb/palm mute was VERY sweet - nice recording, too, with top rolled off as God and Jamerson intended...thanks!
Outstanding!
livin the dream bro
Nice take on Caravan.
DAMMIT Federico is awesome.
Legends

Guillermo del Toro on Bass?
Jaja
wow! masters of the bassiversum
Federico sei un grande.............anche l'altro non era male eh? M,M. Marcus Malaman due mostri a confronto!!!!!
Is that caravan?
yessss
playin with wooten, playin with miller
that would be the point where i'd consider myself done playing bass as in "i now did everything i ever wanted with the bass"
play with Larry Graham, Stanley Clarke, Rex Brown, Leland Sclar, Pino Paladino.... ))
Marcus can groove!
No matter which bassplayer you put next to federico, he is always the most intimidating.
Mononeon
Malaman contagioso musical
Grande Federico!!
Caravan 👌🏽
Extraordinário!
Love the sire basses
They’re good
spettacolo
someone knows the name of what federico does in the minute (6. 51)
U mean 05.51...I really don't remember what is that melody...:-)
daily bugle calls, first call
pure skill
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yo!!!
Mr.Malaman , what a strings are you using?
IQS Strings
Since it looks like a lot like a Marcus Miller V7 Swamp Ash-4 WB, my guess is D'Addario EXL170 .045 - .100.
First of all Congratulations Federico Malaman, what a great and amazing sound from you!!
I would like to know, which microphone was used to capture the audio for this video? hug and lots of sound!!
Thanks...I think it was an iPhone
@@FedericoMalamanBass Obrigado!!
niiiiice...
😂 that ending...
Marcus is a legend but Fede can crush whoever in two phrases.
Martí Sanmartí you know a bass player in the context of how well they play in a band, listen to Markus in band snd you will understand why he is so popular, I know tone of bass player who are good improviser but don't mingle well in a band.
