    Wow!
    Sounds fantastic! What a player!!
    I seriously think that Duran Duran and JT were the king of bass lines. When do you EVER hear stuff this good these days????
    Todays kids need to hear stuff like this and use their imagination, bring some funk back into pop!!
    Excellent clip!

    I had the pleasure of meeting Andy and John (on separate occasions) several years ago...very nice guys. I've seen DD live 6 times (but only once with all 5) and I saw PS once and JTT once. All great shows.

    I've been such a huge fan of Duran, and more specifically John Taylor, since the early 80s. His bass playing is spellbinding to me. I'm not a bass player, but I've memorized every nuance, every note in his lines, until I could hun along and follow along with my fingers. I've never heard anyone else come close, but you are spot on! I'm completely floored! Gorgeous playing. You have gained a new fan!

    • @zumazmusic

    Rock On, please.

    Mate, I know how difficult it is to play the stuff. Youre a fantastic musician. You and JT make it look so easy. A pleasure watching you play.

  • @zumazmusic
    @zumazmusic  15 лет назад +1

    The slap tone on the Kubicki is very unique and it would win the slap tone contest against the Bongo in my opinion. Of course I was drawn to the Kubicki because of John Taylor but it is a genuinely incredible bass. The tone, the construction, the unique ideas.
    Believe it or not, I sold my first Kubicki, a trans-blue beauty. The grey Kubicki in this video belonged to a dear friend of mine who passed away. I am very lucky to have it.
    Saludos!

    This track was first laid down at Bob lamb's flat on Cambridge rd Kings Heath/Moseley Birmingham on my road, remember using his flat to make a couple of tracks myself. He then moved over to highbury rd one road opposite kings Heath park. So many bands came out of that flat. I met so many people who went onto become mega stars. Amazing generation of young people who created such a great vibe and scene. Great memories.

    • @zumazmusic

    • @rob4b
      @rob4b 6 лет назад +1

      zumazmusic last time saw Bob was in way back in 1987 when I came back from the states . He was with Steve gibbons bands for one night as he used to be drummer for some charity gig. I left Birmingham in 1996 and live in London let my dream of being in band there, Only in 2007 when I came across your videos did I start to pick up bass again I hope his still alive, not heard any news.

    • @zumazmusic

    You Nailed it! JT's bass riffs from that era are deceptively "easy" yet so "effortlessly" layered that apparently many bass players have a hard time with. BTW I'm not a musician, just a fan with an appreciative ear for superlative musicianship.

    Nice job on the John Taylor style. I bought one of these Philip Kubiki basses the first year he finished with fender and started making his own guitars. It is a beautiful, and at the time expensive instrument. Im amazed that it didnt carry too much into the later years as it was a very ahead of its time bass. I also liked the Alembic and Steinburg basses.

    Brilliant playing, man! But you don't need me to tell you how good you play! By the way, I love the fact that while this is focussing on John Taylor's bass playing, there is Andy Taylor's CD on your desk! It's like Andy is watching! LOL! I loved the original line up of John and Andy. What a team!!!

    Very clear lesson up front man. I really enjoying teaching but it's a fairly tedious addition to recording/editing/posting the video, admirable of you to do so. There is real passion in your playing, I can really tell you love it.
    I'd be curious to hear any original music you may have if you're interested in sharing.

    I've heard just about everything Duran related my friend! Yes, there are cool licks in the Arena version and it's much faster. A great bass sound overall as well. It's kind of what got me hooked on playing bass to begin with.

    @NelsonMuntzPhoto - I believe there was also a Warwick in with the Steinberger at the time, no? I suppose that after years of playing the same bass, you just need a change. Yes, that is a Japanese import of "Thunder" with some extra tracks. Life goes on, goes and and on...!

  • @sterlingmcvay6163
    @sterlingmcvay6163 8 лет назад +3

    Wow!! Thanks, I've been working on it, and have, most, but some 'issues' with some 'parts'. The Harmonic 'makes sense'. That 'part' in the Interlude @ 4:03, has been the 'part', I've had the greatest Challenge, Nailing Down.

  • @bigtexansfan
    @bigtexansfan 13 лет назад

    @MLG246 - LOL!! You too huh? I thought the same thing until I heard the musicianship behind the Rio album, and I'm also a bassist, and I developed a whole new respect for these guys especially John Taylor. Another phat bassline is "Last Chance On The Stairway"

  • @zumazmusic
    @zumazmusic  14 лет назад

    @NelsonMuntzPhoto - Well spotted! That is a Japanese import version with some extra tracks. I hear there are some tracks you can buy from Amazon as a download as well. I love that album.

    Haunting bass line. Thanks for posting this. You inspired me to try this one. How about "Screen Kiss" by Thomas Dolby?

  • @zumazmusic
    @zumazmusic  14 лет назад

    @neonjunglejumper - For New Religion I would go with the Jazz. The Warwick is awesome but they are generally heavier in the low-mids. Of course, sometimes it's pretty cool to hear a bass-line on a different bass than it was recorded with. Looking forward to your post. Make sure to match your video properly! Most audio for video will be at 48kHz but some of the newer pocket cameras are at 44.1. Just find out what your camera uses and match the sample rate in your ProTools session.

  • @Kenmarcelis
    @Kenmarcelis 17 лет назад

    Zuma thanks again.
    Learning a lot. John Taylor's basslines are not that easy to play. Thanks to you I learn
    the difficult parts.
    It's a shame JT doesn't make those melodic
    chic-like basslines annymore...
    I can only hear JT bassline-style on the 3 first albums.
    never heard better bass lines since...

    1/16th slats of wood pressed together in the neck eliminates dead spots and the pickups are cut at the top so the fingers clear them better for slap and pop.

    • @zumazmusic
      @zumazmusic  6 лет назад

      It's quite an instrument! In active mode, with mid boost engaged, it has the clarity of a piano. I love it.

  • @SDRockman
    @SDRockman 16 лет назад

    I would love to get that bass if you only you could get that 24th fret. I know they do a bass with 24 frets, but it doesn't come with the D-Tuner. Would also like some kind of inlays....Tone is to die for man!! Would love to see ya playing some more Duran Duran with the Kubicki! ;-)

  • @jeffdarling957

    @Guyisthere - I don't know if there is a video. I think I saw him perform live with a white one sometime around the Wedding Album era (early 90's). It had the wings on the body, not a skinny stick one like early Steinberger basses.

  • @SDRockman
    @SDRockman 16 лет назад

    Sorry I took a while to respond, I have been going to driving school over here in Japan and their Japanese english is SO difficult to understand...I don't really want a 5 string bass so thats why I want the 4 string with the D tuner. I really like the Aria Pro II that you have as well and getting those wouldn't be a problem since I live in Japan these days. Only problem is that when summer comes humidity goes through the roof, so I have to careful about the next bass I buy because of this...

  • @zumazmusic
    @zumazmusic  14 лет назад

    @neonjunglejumper - both basses sound great but for New Religion I would go with the sizzlier tone of the Jazz. Just turn both pickups and tone all the way up! Don't forget to set your audio bitrate to that of your video camera. Usually the rate for video is 48KHz. but check your camera to be sure.

    Does anyone know why Kubicki stopped making these incredible basses? Please let me know. Also, how hard is it to find one that is not completely worn out given that the last production year was 1992? Lastly, what does one of these in decent condition usually go for?

    • @zumazmusic
      @zumazmusic  10 лет назад

      Mr. Kubicki is, sadly, no longer with us in the mortal sense. He passed away in early 2013. Look up "The Kubicki Factor" on Facebook. It's a great resource. My educated guess has you spending approximately $1500 for a decent Ex-Factor.

      Steven - I am simply going direct in to a ProTools interface. I mix the audio and video together. Don't use the mic from your camera. It doesn't capture much bass and the room sound is usually pretty bad.
