The main thing I took from this video is that if your technique doesn't involve 100% slapping then Davie will show up in your backyard at 3:47 AM, bass in hand, and break open your bedroom window, only before entering your bedroom and cracks your head open with his bass
1:21 I use that technique all the time! Steve Bailey is the master of it. It's great for the pinch harmonic sounds, and playing entire chords and solos with harmonics. It's really useful on a fretless since you can get slide harmonics.
as someone who is still going through their first year of playing bass, and someone who is still working on their slap technique, this video fills me with joy. Davie504 is one of my main inspirations for deciding to play bass and i've never regretted it.
Davie, i watched your videos for a long time and you are the one of the main reasons I am taking on the bass starting next month. I will remember you with every slap I do
I foresee DISLAPP becoming a personal favourite. Your community has a way of always finding loads of awesome players I've never heard of. Does wonders for ye olde inspiration!
A+ editing when you had the sad moment of your past and lost your bass! Comedic timing and fabulous music choice made that moment awesome!!! Great job!
Davie, you said in this episode that Singing and slapping the bass is EPIC but you have never acknowledged Geddy Lee of Rush as one of the most awesome epic bassists ever. Geddy can slap bass, sing and play keyboards at the same time. Show some love to this bassist LEGEND!
I thought he put Geddy Lee in the top 10 bassists of all time. #7 if memory serves correct. (We named one of our sons Geddy afte Geddy Lee so I pay attention to these things)
@@AJ-dm9vs #7? That’s a serious insult! I have not seen that episode, I will search for it. Awesome that you named your son Geddy! Geedy and Rush are the reasons I started playing bass and keyboards.
5:20 I did this at a show one time with my old BC Rich Warlock, but in the opposite direction. Despite having Straploks, after ~1/2 a rotation, the screw ripped out of the bottom end, sending that pointy bastard flying straight back, nearly impaling our drummer. Fun times.
Kevin Frasard is such a wholesome dude. Don’t let his passion for body building and Metal intimidate you. He’s a really nice dude with a lot of passion for what he does.
It's great to see Kevin Frasard getting some love on different YT channels, recently. Been following the dude since his Essential Salts cover, looks absolutely massive in that one, haha.
Surprised he didn't identify Jaco Pastorius' "The Chicken" at 6:02, although he does have Jaco as the third best bassist of all time. When a guy plays like Jaco, a guitarist lets him have a solo.
that MARCELO PÉREZ SCHNEIDER guy is technically incredible. I wouldnt put a track like this in a playlist, but its an mind buggling live performance. what would beat this would be Davie504 singing while slaping his bass
@@guntertorfs6486 She has at least as much musicality as Dave. You haven`t seen much of her, have you? It`s not just for the sake of speed. Do some research on her and the instrument she`s playing, before judging so stupidly!!! Biased fanboys like you make me sick! 👎
@@blackforestghost1 Gimme a break. I know who she is and what she does. No way her playing is as perfectly timed and intonated as a player like Davie504 is. As a professional drummer for more than 18 years , blessed with an absolute pitch , ( don't need it as a drummer but do have it ) i know what i'm talking about. If there is one biased fanboy here , it's not me. ( she's quite cute , probably getting too lonely in that black forest of yours )
Davie you're giving the game away to other bass semi slappers and bass fiddlers locked in their cells it seems when you're the one should be up there on the podium because YOU ARE the SLAP KING! OF SLAPPERS! so take your deserved place 💪👍
YOOOO at 5:09 ish you can see Davie actually struggling to hold back a smile. Our wholesome slapping god can't stay stoic forever! Also I'm rooting for bass in the wars, EQUAL SLAPPING RIGHTS FOR ALL INSTRUMENTS.
Davie!! Thank you so much for your videos. I don’t even know how to play bass (but, I love it), and you’re fun to watch! Your silly positivity is infectious. Your empathy and teaching skills are influential to say the least. You make people better ❤️ thanks for what you do! I’m sure people feel good even when you checkmate them 😂
Davie, pls do another vid where you ask for vocalists to sing along with a tune you created, with the lyrical content commanded by you as well. Preaching the gospel of the bass, of course. That stuff is super entertaining and hilarious ❤
I've seen that guitar guy playing slap on IG often. He does slap on basses a lot and he's veryyyy good! But I obsolutely loved the one where he was playing with the bassist by the canal, that bassist smoked chick corea out of the water
We definitely want to see Davie504 singing while slapping bass.
Yes.
Yup.

Shes actually amazing

sounded like shit though
@@dagreetpapirusmusic9163 Probably the one in your ears.
So glad you’re back to this format ❤️
Love on how at 5:00 you simply wanted to burst your biggest smile out - this is right up your favourite alley in bass playing :)
That was a such a legit funky groove. Like, someone build a full song off that, please.
Davie, i watched your videos for a long time and you are the one of the main reasons I am taking on the bass starting next month. I will remember you with every slap I do
That’s one month wasted, man!
The guitar-bass duo was really tight! Definitely sounds like those two have played together quite a bit. 👍
What makes bass so amazing is that, even when it's not slapped, it slaps anyway because it can.
OMG
The "wow" at 6:48 just made me smile so hard.
Isn't that Owen Wilson?
Or a cat...
I'm glad you included the guitarist at the end. That playing slapped so hard you couldn't not include him.
Giacomo Turra is 🔥
4:00 Lolled at "100% real English". Masterstroke. 😭
The return of lengthy Davie videos… brings a tear to the eye.
4:28 If that guy slapped the bass, it would disintegrate
I couldn't stop laughing at it bc I know he's a guitarist too but I had no idea he plays bass. I saw him a few times on Steve T channel.
What song is he playing?
That chick rocks man why haven't we heard more people in the Rock industry playing that instrument that's incredible
I foresee DISLAPP becoming a personal favourite. Your community has a way of always finding loads of awesome players I've never heard of. Does wonders for ye olde inspiration!
SLAPP! Those were some epic clips! 😎 The older fella in the shorts had me rewind and watch again. That was fun! Thanks Davie! 😊 🎸🔊
A+ editing when you had the sad moment of your past and lost your bass! Comedic timing and fabulous music choice made that moment awesome!!! Great job!
You know when Davie unconsciously moves his head to the slap it’s good 👍
Ah! I get why drummers and bassists are such good friends! Drummers also slap their drums!

6:48 that "Waow" is such a mood
1:54 davie finally shows emotion after 69,420 years
Probably the most expression I've seen from him since he played violin with TwoSet
It's great to see Kevin Frasard getting some love on different YT channels, recently.
Been following the dude since his Essential Salts cover, looks absolutely massive in that one, haha.
His channel introduced me to Through the Eyes of the Dead, they've heavily influenced my writing so I owe the giga Chad one
Same here. That cover of Nile's song is just f-ing EPIC!
tht little run at 6:30, EPIC!!!!!!
Surprised he didn't identify Jaco Pastorius' "The Chicken" at 6:02, although he does have Jaco as the third best bassist of all time. When a guy plays like Jaco, a guitarist lets him have a solo.

Mind bottling
Finally, a worthy opponent, their battle will be LEGENDARY
Jesus that first one sounds amazing
The second to last solo gives me persona vibes. It’s awesome
You are the king of slap, and we definitely want you to sing while playing!
02:32 Viva México cab... 🇲🇽
Love to see you doing better Davie 😘😊
Loved seeing the live concert, after watching for years it really made me smile
3:10 wow that girl is genius and also her music that's soo freaking good... 👍🏼
So proud to be part of this historical moment, this video slapps
Wow she beat davie on a new level! 😱💙
No. It's just speed for the sake of speed. Doesn't come near the musicality of Davie's playing.

@@Noodles782 I thought she sounded pretty good.
Only thing is that it sounds like the microphone is far away from the instrument.
4:46 I lost it I'm crying laughing Davie hahahaha
The energy of this intro was fantastic. I wish everyone in my life went around slap-motivating those around them.
Lol subtitles be like what's up slippers. This guy is so good!!! Keep going Davie
Davie you're giving the game away to other bass semi slappers and bass fiddlers locked in their cells it seems when you're the one should be up there on the podium because YOU ARE the SLAP KING! OF SLAPPERS! so take your deserved place 💪👍
Slap like now... always gets me
Davie: who s l a p p e d the best?
Me: bass cat
6:48 that was the funniest "wow" I've ever heard.
Thank you once again. I've been hoping to find a quality compilation of great base. I'll be watching all of your videos.
YOOOO at 5:09 ish you can see Davie actually struggling to hold back a smile. Our wholesome slapping god can't stay stoic forever! Also I'm rooting for bass in the wars, EQUAL SLAPPING RIGHTS FOR ALL INSTRUMENTS.
A person who can play bass more skilled than Davie is like an impossible thing to happen, Davie will always be the 1st bass legend.
@Safoutop10thebestyoutubeur wtf
"A Person..."
*cat shows up, slaps bass*
Cats win the internet once more
Unless it's the pro bassist from fiverr
No
Berthoud is way better.
Wow, quality performers! New respect for bass from me.
1:59 The guy is literally evolved into a demon bassist during his solo 😈
"If your dad doesn't slap, I will become your dad".
This is the most epic quotable, ever! 😆
Davie is always the best at bass
Can't change my *opinion*
It's a Fact
2023 has already started better just because Davie posts videos more often.
Thank you!!!
I’m just happy to see Davie making full length videos again. 🙏🏼
Davie!! Thank you so much for your videos. I don’t even know how to play bass (but, I love it), and you’re fun to watch! Your silly positivity is infectious. Your empathy and teaching skills are influential to say the least. You make people better ❤️ thanks for what you do! I’m sure people feel good even when you checkmate them 😂
You're still one awesome and talented bass player with great wit and charisma, Dave.
Kudos to you!!!
Cat is the ultimate slapper!
Absolutely the next level of cuteness, I mean slapping.
Damn old dude in 2nd vid really did have some super clean and fast technical sweep tapping.
8:46 look for some nice slaps on the website with initials P and H
Davie, pls do another vid where you ask for vocalists to sing along with a tune you created, with the lyrical content commanded by you as well. Preaching the gospel of the bass, of course. That stuff is super entertaining and hilarious ❤
The "and that's about it see ya" at the end broke me
3:08 ... total relaxation

did you just owen wilson us at 6:47?
4:05 Kratos in his free time:
Lmfao

I really miss Davie saying slap like now already
Well he did say it at 0:24 but he doesn't do it as much anymore
Hi davie.. i have been your subscriber before you hit 2M.. its now 12.6M.. You have come a long way. Keep it up.
Grande Davide, ho scoperto solo da poco il tuo canale, ma mi fai spaccare!
That lady looked like she was from Dora the explorer 3:29
Hands down Jiaju Shen for slapping that amazing instrument. Dammit, Davy faked me out and I thought maybe I avoided the slap. And then - BLINDSIDED.
The slap was obvious whatcha talking about boy.

Yay new series!
Loved this video! Pls continue the series!
Davie is not only great slapper, but he is also very smart.
