Thanks for having me, and I hope this inspires some folks to dip their toes into this style of guitar playing! 🙂
Bro I am a big fan of yours since so many years. I couldn't believe that Beatles songs could be arranged so beautifully on guitar when I first saw your videos !!!
Hello Adrian, I remember your interpretation of some Beatles songs from a few years ago, and was mightily impressed with your playing back then.
This was wonderful, and displayed some really great playing from both of you. It certainly has generated my interest in this style of playing, and encouraged me to learn more. Thanks to both of you.
Thanks for breaking it down. Great video
Wow, the first time I had seen/heard you I was a kid just learning guitar. Love all your arrangements and work!!!
Nice present under the Christmas tree. My big take away 1/2 bend from 1/2 step below to reach the 9th or 6th.Thank you both it was fun to watch
For the programmers out there, Adrian Holovaty is the author of Django - one of the most popular web frameworks for Python. Now I know why he named it Django!
Didn't know that, thanks!
Woah woah woah man
that's definitely a great insight. His Romani Jazz guitar influence and love for Django Reinhardt.
Wow! Mystery unraveled!
😮😮😮 that's amazing!!!
I admire Paul for not over-rehearsing while shooting this video and presenting the process of learning this music style in the most authentic way. What a fun video to watch!
It’s cool that he doesn’t let his ego get in the way of his excellent teaching. 💙
I can't believe nobody mentioned the fact that Django basically only had the use of 2 fingers as well! Insane
I kept waiting for someone to mention that.
Watching this is just therapy...
The pureness of it all. Its breathtaking
And he was breathtakingly fast with those two fingers too!
This was actually what inspired Tony Iommi to keep playing after his accident- having to play with a focus on his two good fingers influenced his style a lot and made Black Sabbath what it was
@@coryman125 By extension the ENTIRE Metal genre owes its existence to Django Reinhardt! 😎🤘💪🍻
Dango Rheinhardt was a one off.
His tone, feel and expression were just sublime. The fact he improvised his solo on "See You In My Dreams" is absolutely mind blowing.
Adrian is a lovely guitarist and has the "Gypsy Jazz" timbre and feel perfected.
To my ears the substitute Dmin 7/5 chord sounded very similar to the chord Andy Summers used in "Walking In The Moon" but that could just be my ears.
Totally agree. You can play all the right notes but you will never get the fullness of expression or the timbre and tone that Django did
It's amazing how modest Paul is about his playing. He picks things up right away but still remains humble in his approach to others.
Yes, makes me feel at ease, listening to Paul, he's not showing off, and the Django dude he's the same, great teaching guys.
If there is such a phenomenon as a perfect lesson between a master teacher and advanced student, this is it. Beautifully executed.
Well put
Which is which? Paul is the master teacher?
Can’t be a teacher (Paul is a great one) without being a student. That never stops, hopefully. 🙂
I love how musical he can make just two notes sound, what a player!
Yeh the 1, 5 based "solo" was eye opening--- A way to move around or to do simple fills while staying out of the way, this is something so simple, but useful.
I’m old enough to have listened to and admired Django music when I was a youngster in the 1950s and into the 60s. I’m not a great guitarist, but I’ve been at it long enough that nothing in here was really new to me. That said, this is one of the most outstanding guitar videos I have ever watched, largely due to how you developed the topic and the rationale and feigned learning even though I’m sure it was all rudimentary to you. Absolutely loved explaining, and demonstrating the difference between bending the strings Django style, as opposed to bending notes for rhythm and blues. Again, intuitively, I know it, but had never seen anyone discuss and demonstrate the differences. I can’t overstate how valuable I think this would be to a beginner. I’ve never played much Gypsy jazz, but have been intrigued by the chords and will use this video as a launching pad for learning to play them better. Well done, guys.
@guermeisterdoodlebug7980 : You saved me a lot of typing because I was going to say the same thing but not as well.😂😂
OMG as a gypsy and guitarist I’ve been waiting for you to talk about gypsy jazz since 2019 brother! I know you’re Dutch and you have such inspiring gypsy jazz musicians in Netherlands such as the legend himself Stochelo Rosenberg!! ❤❤❤ excited to watch this video! Keep up the amazing work.
Beautiful work
And of course Robin Nolan, based in Amsterdam 😀👍
It was great to see your genuine joy that exactly expressed what me and probably many other viewers also felt hearing the amazing little Django techniques played perfectly by Adrian :)
Hey I have a question for you. I'm a dumb American and we don't have a big Roma population in my part of the country. But isn't "gypsy" a slur?
Don't forget Paulus Schäfer. Also a Dutch gypsy jazz master.
Honestly one of the best lessons Ive ever watched for an intermediate player or anybody checking out gypsy jazz! Nice!
Please do more on this topic! When my teacher introduced me to this style it opened a new world to me. You really have to talk about Jango‘s two finger technique and the story behind it. Breaking down chords to the core notes, using different scales, Joscho Stephan and other artists like the Rosenberg family.
Gypsy Jazz is a rabbit hole 🤘
Adrian Holovaty!! He's one of the first musician youtubers I ever watched, over 10 years ago at this point. Incredible player
❤ I love Paul’s explaining always keeping in mind total beginners might be watching this and describing everything in very convenient way. I’m myself familiar with all the aspects of this music and moderately familiar with music theory and I still find it interesting and inspiring.
I love these too, but even with Paul explaining it I'm still totally lost.
This is definitely NOT for total beginners. You have to know the fretboard pretty well, be able to reach some of the chord voicings, know some theory...
@@obdacz i never said it was for beginners, I just meant he explains everything in a way its comprehensible for beginners. He starts with simple voicing, then explains different voicings, inversions, added sevenths, sixths etc. so even as beginner you get the grasp of what is happening and how the basic open string chords can become more sophisticated.
@@obdacz I'm lost with total beginner stuff and still enjoy
LOVE THIS, learned more about la pompe in 5mins than I have in weeks. This is a video I'll be watching over and over. GREAT and entertaining tutorial.
There are few things better than watching Paul authentically learning things from other masters. THAT is the true spirit of both learning and teaching. Few people can be good teachers if they aren't also good learners.
Also, Adrian has been one of the best at the give-and-take with Paul in these style exploration videos. Great stuff. I'd love to see a whole series with these two.
My absolute favorite style of jazz to listen to (wouldn't be able to play it)
Walked into a jazz bar in Ghent (Belgium) and a dude and his dad played a whole set of gypsy style covers of George Brassens' chansons.
It was heaven ❤
Thanks David voor de aandacht voor deze toch wel onderbelichte muziekstijl :)
It's a surprise that the founder of the amazing soundslice is a gipsy guitar player. What a cool guy!
paul, these kinds of lessons are so enlightening and qualitative. I really applaud you for making this freely available for everybody to watch and learn from. I know a lot of work goes into these lessons, recording the footage/sound and making a coherent story out of it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!!
I knew nothing about this style or it’s history. Very well presented. Love how you guys walked through it in a progressive style. Thanks!
Absolutely dynamite lesson from both of you. The video editing was over the top as usual, much appreciated for this free content
It was fun seeing how much fun you were having learning this. Thanks Paul!
I studied many times about Adrian’s transcripts but I didn’t know he was the founder of Soundslice! Wonderful video, congratulations.🎉
how cool, I randomly decided to learn Minor Swing about 2 weeks ago and have been slowly building up and learning measure by measure for the past 2 weeks and have been progressing well. To see one of my favorite creators doing a Django video this morning is like a little nod from the universe that I should be listening to more jazz
This was such a pure and magical journey to watch you take together. I love how both of you are so humble, yet such amazing musicians. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for putting this together! I am in love with Gypsy Jazz lately. These gradual complexity videos ARE AWESOME 😎👍 thank you so 🙏
I can't believe you're hanging out with Adrian! That's awesome! Glad to a large RUclipsr shining some light on this amazing genre. Thanks Paul!
Once i learned about the existence of gypsy jazz, i realised that to me it is one of the most soulfull and interesting genres i know. It is so so good
Finally! Thanks so much, Paul, I’ve been waiting for it and I’m not disappointed. Very appreciated! Cheers🎉
I love that there is no end to the amount of different influences and styles that we as musicians can add to our bag of tricks. It's also amazing to hear how related Gypsy Jazz and Blues music are.
I love watching two exceptional guitar players go back and forth like this. I love gypsy jazz, and this is inspirational! Thank you!
Loved this video, it's quite timely as we just lost one of Canada's best guitar pickers, and the best gypsy jazz players I've ever met. A man I was proud to call a friend, Nova Scotia's Bill Elliott. RIP Bill, and thanks Paul for the great videos. Keep up the great work. - Nova Scotia
Django Reinhardt always brings me back to the Mafia video game from 2002. Nice video Paul
Wow, thank you both so much. I’ve loved Gypsy Jazz for years but always found it a little too mystifying to really replicate. Now you’ve opened the door!
Fantastic breakdown of the gypsy jazz style. The explanation here is one of the most clear I’ve heard. Super easy to understand how to think about it, and how to build up your own approach.
i just learned years of experience in 20 minutes, thanks Paul, that was an amazing call and amazing content.
Been subscribed to Adrian for years, even before Paul! Great to see him getting a bit more spotlight, he’s a wonderful player and inspiring to say the least!!
Beautiful. A delight to watch and listen to & also to see you both relishing and enjoying the genious of Django and the fun of learning and sparking off someone else. I can't wait to try it. Thanks so much also for naming and displaying the chord voicings so graphically. Merry Christmas.
GREAT TO WATCH YOU TWO FELLAS. THANKS FOR THIS TUTORIAL X
Lovely presentation and pace to this. Great video, as always!
AWESOME Video. So much information and great ideas for adding new colour to soloing. There is nowhere near enough videos about Django online. One of the all time greats.
Thank you Paul for sharing with us this style of jazz. I really enjoyed it and got a lot out of it for my playing!
Thanks Adrian for the tips and for Sound Slice. I love and support the technology.
Your video is soo informative!!❤
Way too go Paul
love it, thanks Paul and guest
Adrian Holovaty is a Legend for me. Know his playing since the earliest days of youtube when i first startet out playing the Guitar. Found his Channel by total accident and his playing was propably my first touch with Jazz. Awesome Guitar Player!
Thank you for the lesson, the playing and the tabs.👍 Adrian's feel and tone is amazing🎆
The first guitar I ever heard was my Dad playing Django LPs, still love it even now....thank you for this!
A wonderful lesson - thanks Paul and Adrian.
What a great way to present this... it was fun to watch and had me smiling. That is what Django does.
Such an incredibly USEFUL lesson!! Excellent buildup. Thank you
Chapeau! Eindelijk een video die jazz op gitaar eenvoudig laat lijken. Inspirerend 🎸
Nailed it! Django has been a fav of mine for decades.
All your videos are great. This is one of your best! I get to have fun and enjoy the music while learning so much. Thanks!
Great guest, Fabulous style, thank you
That progression is the chorus part of Always look on the bright side of life.
Simply wonderful! first time I understand the essence of django style! a few hours of work and we can begin to loop a decent rhythm and then the fun will begun! Many thanks Paul and Adrian!
I've always been a big fan of your channel but this video really stepped it up a notch. I've been aware of Django for more than a year now but never got super into his music. This video though made me immediately stop what I was doing and go grab my guitar. Now I've got a melody, and a bass line to go with this progression and I've been noodling for an hour straight. Totally inspirational video
Thanks Paul & Adrian, that was so well walked thru', from the essential chord structure to the alternatives that give that Manouche feel, as well as the titbits about where the 6th is & the "non-blues" bends etc. There must be hundreds of thousands of guitarists who can play this but have little or no understanding of the theory & your relaxed approach made it so easy to just sit in & go through it with you, Excellent! Playing for 50 years & plenty still to learn!
Adrian is a great choice to give this lesson/these tips, thanks Paul
Great lesson! Fun!! Excellent,well played
amazing style of teaching. great quality!
Paul you provide such wonderful education. I will never ever forget how important Paul Davids was to the foundation of my guitar knowledge. All I can say is thank you, and please know that I mean it more than the words can convey. You are important to me, and thank you for giving me so many lessons for free. From the bottom of my heart to the bottom of yours, THANK YOU!!!
Ive always loved Django's work. It just makes me feel something that a lot of other guitar playing doesn't quite.
I know right?! What gets me is how expressive it can be with just 6 nylon strings. It’s “easy” to be expressive with some bends and an amp, comparatively (not dissing, that describes a lot of my favorite music).
@@dmanstarr I agree, but please note Django used steel strings (not nylon strings).
@@adrianholovaty I'll be damned! I'm listening now and it still sounds like nylon with nails. How did he do that?
I love it! Such a nice vibe in the room: a little bit of a tension between two players, but the music makes it smooth. Very good job of explaining everything, now I know where to start to play Django style!
i love these kind of deep dives on style, where you can geek out about the precise technique and variations on a technique that bring out a particular voice
This was awesome. I really enjoyed the format. I will spend the night getting this down cold. I can already feel the arthritis.
So much quality here! Many thanks !
Such a fun video! Great energy from both of you
great stuff Paul & Paul !
So cool yet so accessible, I've mastered much of this style just by following along! Thank you Paul and Adrian for this brilliant lesson!
What a great lesson and insight into the marvel that was Django. The bending element was an epiphony. A blues bend and a Django bend - and never the twain shall meet. The 6th and the 9th of the chord - and a semi-tone. In my last guitar lesson the teacher had just covered whole tone bends used in blues and rock. I will eagerly bring up this video and its insights in the next.
Excellent lesson. I am always amazed at how you find things to teach me that I didn't know I wanted to learn Paul. Thanks a lot to both you and Adrian showing me this great style and technique!
I have to say, you guys flowed. Talk about unity. No awkward stuff. Wow. Well done. Thank you.
What a joyful video! Also packed with so much simple but effective information. I don't really ever want to play Gypsy jazz, but what a beautiful style, with so much you can transfer to soloing, especially over stuff that isn't blues or rock. Brilliant.
Great video, so much info and easy to understand.
One of my fav videos yet 👍. Loved the format and lesson style. Awesome work 👍
Great video. Was jamming along with both of you throughout the video. Had fun and learnt lots.
I've always loved this style of playing, thanks Paul!
Great format of a video!
Been watching Adrian's videos for years. His version of the Mario 2 theme was so good. Great collaboration
Super Django Bros 2! :D
what a breath of fresh air this video is!!! heading over to listen to his new album...great job on this video
9:59 - I got emotional because the man is long dead but his soul is very much alive through whoever is currently using his technique and unique style. FANTASTIC achievement, Django, would you have known?
Thank you Paul and Adrian for this Master Class!! 👌
What a great guitar lesson! Never knew about this genre although I had heard of Django. Thanks for posting this!
Such a great AbstractBaseClass to extend from, thanks Adrian, Paul and Django.
Thanks you ,very nice of you doing this.
I’m an aging guitarist and continue to peak my interest with this type of music. I’ve played by ear the past few decades. I’m so blessed and grateful to work hard improving my skills and soul❤
Paul. Thank you so much for diving into a Master that is not as appreciated today. It was amazing to see some of the subtle flair that he brought to guitar.
Such and amazing video thank you guys !
Love that you took on Django's music Paul. And there's not a better guest you could have had than Adrian. He's a great ambassador for Manouche jazz.
Adrian Holovaty, what a great musician!
I learned so much from this video man. Thank you so much
Thanks so much! That was so much fun and it sounds great on my nylon classical! Amazingly fun.
Joyous.
Super fun and interesting video. Thanks for doing such great work and sharing it with others!
Wonderful to see Adrian in the wild!
2:25 Always look on the bright side of life 😙🎶🎶🎶
Brilliant episode. Such simple yet complex ideas. Will definitely listen to more Django. Thanks guys. Really enjoyed it. 👏👏👏
That half step bending thing is amazing in this context. Fun video.
How wonderful to see two professionals break this style into learnable chunks! Thank you so very much 😎🎸🪕
