That intro was 12/10
BIG DOCK ENERGY
Close...but not quite...
I was specting Little Wing
@@fx5298 right that was literally little wint
This can be reduced to 6/5
I cannot stress enough the importance of this video lesson. I push rhythm over lead to all of my students not just because it is critical to becoming a great guitarist BUT it will help your leads more than anything else. Great video Sensei. Just subbed you.
'the less i know the better' has the most insanely catchy bassline
kiles7 literally about to say that, it's a great song
and what this have to do with the video ?
Hey dude, Here's another tip to exercise rythm that I like to use.
It's vey easy, just try jamming on a groove by only using 1 or 2 notes, that way you're not distracted by the melody and you can really focus on the rythm you're using with these two notes :)
Love your video's man, keep it up!
Tip #4 so headbanging and airdrumming is useful after all!
I'm pretty sure that's what dancing and head banging is used for. Keeping time to the music, and being in sync. When you do a dance, such as head banging, you are in sync with the piece in question. I head bang to the beat when I play keyboard, and it works better for me than tapping my foot, which gives me twitches and pins and needles.
If you want to see headbanging work, check out Slayer's Repentless video. Kerry King (the lead guitarist) is literally grooving, and banging his head with the song (very fast since it's a fast song).
With headbanging, your essentially acknowledges the beat with the swing of your head, and it can also help count off beats as well (1 and 2 and etc.) If you headbang faster.
A really nice exercise is to set the metronome to 40BPM when playing a 120BPM 4/4 song, so that only the first beat matches. It is quite difficult at the beginning but really gets you out of your comfort zone.
That would be 30bpm no?
@@nikhillrao3799 Right, of course! My bad.
Teaching was great.
Knowledge was great.
Intro was overdramatic.
Perfection
Kudos for the acknowledgment of female guitarists who watch (and enjoy!) your channel Sam. We ARE out here!😊🎸👌
Waiting for a Sempai Series. I hope my comment gets noticed~
+Nicolas Giovani Busanello hahaha, your comment has been noticed
Aronax GT It's "written" not "wrote".
Nicolas Busanello dead af
Aronax GT sempai is also correct because its actually pronounced as it
@Aronax whoosh
I'm going to go with Budos Band "Aynotchesch Yererfu", good lord I forgot how good these guys are
Hey, I know this is kinda offtopic but what other songs would you recommend which have a similar groove to this one? This song is insanely good and fun to play and I'm looking for similar stuff. Thanks in advance.
Holy moly, yes.
Tip for metronomes. Instead of trying to divide or subdivide in your head, multiply the BPM by the ratio of that note compared to a quarter note. (So eight to quarter would be 2:1) I feel it makes it easier to feel it.
That little wing intro is so memorable
Wow switching up the metronome pattern while I practice is pretty difficult, but I think it's really helping me nail down my rhythm. My thanks dude
i love that little wing riff
Great topic. When I use to teach I urged my students to get a cheap drum machine. I'm sure not all will agree, but I think even a cheap drum machine is more inspiring than the tick of a metronome. It makes a new student "feel" like they making music quicker. IMHO. Thanks for the vids, really good.
Sensei: Maybe you don't have a lot of friends...
Me: Yeah, sounds right
Sensei:.. who play music
Me: Still yeah
Love your tips! They are on the same line with my philosophy when it comes to music. Thank you for reassuring me that the way I do things is a good way to become a good musician.
I've never even considered this before but I'm convinced, Samurai Guitarist IS Sensei!!!
MUST WATCH! 1+Sub!
Your videos are top notch man. It's refreshing to hear a new perspective on how to approach these things. You have a very unique view and that's rad!
Your sense of humor has me learning and laughing at the same time. I’m sold.
I would've given this two thumbs up if it were available - this is my weakest area, and this helped.
Thanks for making such great videos. I first saw one of them on Ultimate Guitar. Most guitar videos don't offer much in term of improving musicianship. Yours all do. Great job. Keep doing what you're doing.
This channel definitely needs more subscribers. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic!! You, my man, are just what I was looking for. Greatly appreciate your expertise!
Love this series! You're a good teacher, because you use practical advice.
As for next techniques, I'd vote for a typical styles of playing the guitar. Such as using both hands to make shapes, tapping, inverting hands, crazy things like that.
As for the groovy song, I have to go with "Mas" by Black Guayaba. Really nice rock track. With a lot of feeling.
I love it! As 22 yr professional percussionist I am on my 1st yr guitar and realized training and rudiments are very applicable.
You cover very interesting stuff in your videos. Straight to the point and very informative. Keep it up.
"Move to the music, Tap your foot, shake your shoulders, or nod your head"
I prefer and recommend the joe cocker, AKA, absolutely let That beat absorb your very being! I find it works really well for me, even if it does look like your possessed by a demon from time to time
Awesome.
Thanks for that.
Loving your tutorials.
One of the best lesson videos man. Thank you 🙏🏾
Dude, you're awesome. Well done. I'm about to go check out your other videos.
Great video, very helpful ! I have been playing about a year and half, so I need all the help I can, beside being 65, I practice just about every day, at times I felt like quitting but I
never gave in. So thanks again for the info !
A very acurate video, I can say from my own expierience this is some good advice. Well done, the metronome part was especially great.
You rock dude! I've also been rocky on my rhythms but this helped a lot. Thanks!
'walking contradiction' has such a catchy chorus, I can't help but move with the vocals! This video was insanely helpful. Thanks so much, its really appreciated!
Thanks for the video! I finally understand why practicing with a metronome is important!
Awesome senses!👏😁 Thanks for this video.#Love it
Love your videos and insight on guitar!!
you tricked us with the 4th one, your background music already had me grooving, solid advice!
Really liked the bit about stepping out of your comfort zone, kinda genius. Thanks man.
ありがとう先生！Thanks for tips on this most basic aspect of playing music. Over the last year I got into the bad habit of not having a time keeper during my practice sessions and it showed in a few bars when I sat in during a recent gig in Tokyo.
Really great tips man. I really like your channel.
I really appreciated this lesson. Thanks ever so much.
dude! Awesome vids!is like a lesson without knowing it. just subbed. Mind blowing AWESOME!!!!!
It is so true. I think that what makes a good or a band band is how well the musicians lock together.
Thanks for this. A great video on timing and how to fix it.
2:12 that flip phone tho.
I was first introduced to your channel when you posted your Star Wars Medley on r/Guitar. I subscribed immediately, yet completely forgot about your channel after that lol.
Really appreciate content like this because I've been playing the guitar off and on for a couple years now, but only recently started getting a bit more serious about it.
Hope to see more of your rad content!
The Sensei series is so helpful. I feel guilty getting such good free tips! Also, a good song to groove out to is foxey lady!!
Wow! Great practical lesson. Thank you 🙏
*Wonders where to buy a metronome*
*Realizes it's 2019 and everything is on the play store* 😎

My new favorite youtube musician........Verry nice explained,thank you sensei :D
Thanks . I was tapping along to the background music. Feeling that groove lol
This video was very useful! thankyou now i have more appreciation for the use of metronomes
Excellent video, thank you.
This is the most helpful video on rhythm I have ever seen thanks bromigo
It's a classic but Ray Charles' I Got a Woman has such a great groove, especially the live recordings. I can't help but move a little, no matter where I am, whenever I hear it.
Great series, man. Love your channel.
I do not understand how you do not have millions of subs :(
You´r awesome :D
Awesome video, love it man! keep it up
Great metronome ideas! I'm going to use those exercises with my drumkit too
Thanks man, great suggestions
Way to go! I'm really digging your videos as a guy who can't play a single bar. So, one of the grooviest songs I like is Childhood's end from KISS. And Ich brennende Komet fro Lacrimosa. Thanks.
I have watched a few of your videos but after this one I seriously asked myself ,,why in the hell am I not subbed to this guy?''.
Fantastic stuff! ^^ :D
Thank you for you great lessons, they're very in time for me)
ElKolovichi PunKing here, I hand my crown to you! 👑
Good af I really dig this lesson also love the omnific for a good groove they literally just a rhythm section 2 bass players and a drummer
Thank you this was really helpful.
Great advice, Sensei.
New to the channel and first imression this guy is so appreciative
Hey you made the video! :) Awesome stuff!
+Jakop Kallenbäck Yessir!!!
Nice little wing opener
Good lesson..very basic for the most imperative part of playing music..got few students who don't get it..fact that u indicated body movement and feeling it, is great and I'm sending this to a few students...mucho thmx!!
Nice Hendrix lick to start with. You had my attention immediately.
Excellent. Thanks.
Ahoi! Still anybody here? Not sure if this is a suggestion or a question, but around here, there are several open stage events where you can just walk up a stage and perform. Some want you registering beforehand but at others you can just walk in, wait for an open space and do your stuff.
In some cases you will perform in front of any odd walker-by, but some are held by jazz clubs or so and you will be in front of other (mostly amateur) musicians. I am using your videos (among others) to prepare for such a thing as I have witnessed some (in the audience) and was blown away by the helpful and positive attitude at these events.
Good shit man an enjoy the energy
What is an outstanding lesson.
This is great for beginners. I'm glad I was already trained this way.
I really need to use a metronome more often, and really work on my foot tapping and ghost strumming. I love your analogy of referring to the strumming hand as a rhythm pendulum that never stops moving, therefore we're not concerned about up and down strums but whether or not we're hitting the strings or not on those movements.
Great video-thanks! Good especially for beginners. Also good for other players like me who have played lead licks mostly and sense that something important is missing and that it all just sounds too "off."
GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for the suggestions.
Tip: There are free metronome apps for your phone and on some of them you can change the 'click' sound. I find a hi-hat, drum kick, or snare track to be much more fitting for most of my playing.
Hey Sammy? You should see yourself in 5 years - You totally smash it!!!! 👏👏👏
This was very helpful!
I know this was seven years ago, but I still think it’s hilarious and awesome
Woaaah! What a great video! As for the groovy song that makes me move, I'd say whatever the Chili Peppers throw at me. Oh and I will try those metronome tricks for sure! Subbed.
Great tips thank you! Listening to Donald “Duck” Dunn’s Bass on The Blues Brothers “Sweet Home Chicago” sets my groove goal.
Thank you 🙏 Helpful 😎
Clutch - D.C. sound attack! that cowbell part is awesome
Wilson Pickett land of 1000 dances. I always feel that one in my bones bro. Great video I agree whole heartedly, I like your style my man.
On Fire Tonight - Little Big Town. I can't listen to it without drumming along!
I am now convinced! No more practice without a metronome. Thanks for the video.
I am still waiting for the Christmas Canon video, lol.
you are definitely my new favorite youtuber
thanks for the tips
I found playing rhythm games on a Alesis drum machine really helped my rhythm guitar. Also, playing to a metronome and making the metronome groove rather than your guitar groove. As if you are playing the metronome rather then it playing you.
Thanks great advice
The hook in the reinventing the steel classic, yesterday don't mean sh*t always makes me feel good and groovy
Thank you!
thx! top guideline!
Good stuff. Thank you,
Thanks for being about equality! Loving this channel.
super informative. thank you
