That's like Vanilla Ice saying they didn't use the exact Bass Line like Under Pressure
As the pianist at 5:04, I am deeply honored at the Pam reference!
Nice lol
That’s anazing
Omg what would be the chances
Sounds like a self esteem issue to me.
Monolith Preacher sounds like you should be in school
🎹THANKS TO ALL WHO SUBMITTED! It's super brave to submit for critique, and I'm proud of all the great music everybody has been making!

After seeing this video I wouldn't mind going down to the corner store and buying me a jazz or two
Can you grab me a couple I’ll give you a funk if you can get them back within the hour

What's your fav brand of jazz?
erin is going places. i really hope she sticks with all that she's doing rn! being stuck with that feeling of "what if" can really haunt you and i wouldn't wish that on anybody
dude thank you so much!
Erin Snape you have been seen by 100,000 people now 😂 ur technically famous now 😂
@@ErinSnape utterlery buttery! Ur like candy explosion inside Wes Anderson's head. Loved it.
@@ErinSnape you're a fantastic musician, stick with it and it'll take you soooo far. Best wishes
@@ErinSnape
Erin Snape's song is so god-damn catchy. I feel like they are going places!!
I think she had a song in another RUclipsr's song competition but I'm sorry to inform you that I am totally blanking on the name right now.
@@olilerno Rob Scallon on the Riff that got away challenge!
She's going to the potions class.
Oli Lerno yep! At 4:20 on the Riff That Got Away Results video on RobScallon2
She had 220 subs, now over 1500, no doubt in large part courtesy of this video.

He’s become soft..
I thought the same
Everyone has gotten better at playing because they stopped bending their wrist.
Miles Davis tune
“probably by Bill Evans”
That hit hard.
jazz
It felt good
I'd like to know why Adam has that theory, since Bill Evans said himself on multiple occasions that it was Davis' composition??
I think he's confusing it with Blue in Green, which was written by Evans but claimed by Miles. Miles definitely wrote Nardis. Evans picked it up at the first recording and never stopped playing it, that's why people think he wrote it.
@@agkhall i think he's just memeing.
My face being on that thumbnail is CRACKING ME UP. Anyway, I got a playlist of some some other performances. Also, Instagram is a thing. Peep it?
please do! loved that solo, dude!
Peter Sanctus thanks dude! My insta is @dustinpedigo. There’s some bass stuff there and if you go to my YT there’s a playlist with this whole performance among some others.
So bass solos are the adults from "Peanuts"
No those are trombone solos
@@calebnation7797 You're right.
@@calebnation7797 As long as you have the plunger
bass players are the adults...from the band
@@BothellPlaysMusic well, not in my experience... as a bass player
Girl: what kind of music are you into?
Me: *T R A F F I C*
Loved that one. Reminded me of parts of Peter Grimes.
I still wonder if he was being literal or referring to the band
@@oe3phen The harmony thing for some reason reminded me of a certain Beatles song....
*C R A Z Y B U S*
wrong, no girl has ever asked me that
Erin Snape is MASSIVELY talented omg
She really is I discovered her from Rob scallons the riff that got away and she's an amazing singer, arranger and songwriter hope to see her go places
I was like, damn, I'm a year older than her and what the hell am I doing with my life?
@@undeniablySomeGuy probably something else of similar talent.
@@undeniablySomeGuy Thank you. I opened a bottle of wine to that.
SNAPE
Traffic is one of the smartest pieces I've ever seen featured on this show, Erin Snape is scary good, basically this entire episode is full of scary good people. Eep
Employer: do you have any other skills?
Neely: I have nine lives 8:32
Hahahahshsh
I think the proper term for it is sCat, isn't it?
It's definitely a catchy feLine.
It will always be How Not To Suck At Music in my heart.
Yeah, why didn’t he call it that? Important piece of RUclips history.
@@hellomynameisjoenl He said back then the reason why he was reconsidering continuing the series was people felt that the name was unnecessarily rude; i.e. that he was implying all the performances he was critiquing "sucked" when in reality most of them just needed some improvement or could be better.
NoEsUnRUclipsr Okay. Makes sense.
@@drpibisback7680 Kids these days...
Thank you Adam for checking out our video, your advice is really helpful and I’ll think about it in my bass playing definitely, I really appreciate it :)
For what it's worth, I like that note that you held! It all sounded good
Tony Maietta ahh thank you🙏
Tay, you sounded great!
I really like the whole note, it makes a statement and like puts a comma in the phrase. Nice groove and a bit different. Dare to be different, it's cool.
as a learning bassist and drummer, I agree with Tony, I like that held whole note!
The comments on that dudes Instagram post at 16:30 are nothing short of perfect.
I have weird but loving friends
I was scrolling down to see if anyone else noticed it lol
@@GabrielFelix-zl4sq me to
@@fouadbass Really liked your clip. Beautiful job on the bass!
@@fouadbass I love the person who compared you too Needly
11:40 "uhh, j a z z" Adam does sure know his onomatopoeias
Haha should've figured I was beaten to this comment
Delicious jazz 😋
This needs to become a reaction video
I'm gonna need the raw audio of that reaction for meme purposes
As one who plays the 5-string cartoon whale I am deeply offended.
Starting This Band can I join the band
@@ireadysucks3026 yes.
Starting This Band wait wdym by worship music
5-String whale? everyone knows the whale is a wind instrument, i play the Bb Whale myself
@@phillipanselmo8540 whale? I thought you were a singer
"Traffic" sounds like the music for an award-nominated animated short about the mundanity of everyday life and the corporate rat race
indeed.
Yeah I can totally imagine it being used in one of those Pixar shorts that gets played before the actual feature at the cinema.
That Traffic piece sounds like a real jam.
A real.......
... Traffic jam 🤔
That last guy was ridiculous! His music sounds just as good as what I hear at live jazz clubs. He does NOT sound like an amateur.
Thank you so much!!!
@@TylerDonkohHalm As a multi-instrumentist myself, I'd be curious to hear you play ukulele ;)
I completely agree :)
If I had a penny for every time Adam said “I’m a bass player” in this video, I wouldn’t have to work a single day.
as a b a s s player...
B A S S
You wouldn’t even have 50 cents 🤣
I'm an oil man
If he really was a bass player (not a youtube clickbaiter) then the channel would be worth watching.
That Erin Snape girl was so good! I’m definitely subbing to her
GREAT advice for the donna lee violinist
Adam, you're always drinking coffee. I work for a coffee roaster in Brooklyn, how can I hook you up with some fresh beans?
me and the boys at 2am looking for fresh _b e a n s_
Damn I wish I could get a b e a n sponser
@@bobby43rocks doesnt jackspedicey make coffee now
Plot twist, he drinks pod cofffee.
Oh these replies
And yes, b e a n s
Tay, I like that “whole note that’s just chilling there”.From one bassist to another)))))
Yeah, I also liked the independence between the drums and bass in that one. It's important to keep in mind that a lot of Adam's opinions are just that, his personal preferences for things might be done. That doesn't mean they aren't extremely valuable information from a seasoned music veteran but they aren't "right," the bass line was perfectly fine the way it was if they want to keep playing it that way.
Seeing all these submissions is so inspiring and yet intimidating at the same time. Kids these days...
Truth
That Traffic duet is amazing, really reminds me of the Car Horn preludes in Ligeti's Le Grand Macabre.
Adam I love all you do and I wanna thank you for everything you’ve taught me and how you continue to entertain so many.
My family when I'm playing great: "Honey, you did great"
The guy's friend at 16:30: PeNIs = eREcT
😅😂🤣
To be honest that was the groove that touched my heart. Fav of mine out of all the ones
"Adam Neely vibes" 💯😽
I saw that too. Errrrr...
The people who submitted bass solos seeing the title of the video: 😦
Offer Erin that annual sub for Skillshare, she talked about how she'd love to up her skills in recording and production! Then add the rest of them to that offer, how amazing these guys and girls actually were! Totally impressed 🙏
YES!!! Up up up up. She deserves it 300%
that tune "Happy" was legit ngl
Someone really needs to make an "Adam Neely Out Of Context" video.
i’m on it
They did
One time in big band we hit a fermata and the director glared at me and I said "sorry, I should've changed bows" and the drummer looks over and says
"What's wrong with that one?"
Haha I would wanna say that too
explain the joke for poor drummers
@@ytpanda398 changing direction of the bow during fermata vs changing the physical bow for another one
Also, I read "dummers" instead of "drummers", heh
@@ytpanda398 Changing bows means changing directions
16:28 I feel like it was an artistic decision to leave the comments on the side rather than crop them out, and I 100% appreciate you for it.
I agree
I like the positive vibes critique. Specifically, great eyebrow action from Adam. Some decent stank face too. Hmmm. Yeah. Oh. And I love the meow solo at 8:30.
That meow solo was AWESOME!
This was the comment I was looking for. Does anyone want to write an arrangement off of the meow solo? Can we make an unofficial contest out of it for kicks and giggles?
The piece by the 16 year old girl was really awesome! She has a great voice and the song overall was super impressive. I would put that in my music playlist if I could
You know that Adam Is into it if he is meowing.
thanks for being nice about our video haha
adam does some of the most helpful critiques ive seen in a while. top stuff man, keep it up
Erin managed to get her submissions picked by both Rob Scallon and Adam Neely, and it even looks inevitable that they would be picked. So good!
"Traffic" is the forgotten song from west side story
I was going to make a Rhapsody in Blue comparison but yeah WSS makes sense too
"Uh, jazz." - Adam Neely 11:40
nonechico Sums up the channel pretty well
11:40 Me when I'm trying to sleep but I remember that sick lick I just heard in a solo

Lucia and Jemma blew me away. That seriously gave me Cory Henry vibes for a second
Thanks!!
Thank u so much 😊
That young lady Erin was so good. I love to see young people do something original with the things they have. Using limitations to come up with super cool stuff. Damn I wish I was still young and hungry. Great video, much love from Tulsa.
The last player KILLED IT, it was at the same time very ironic, and rebel, but at the same time groovy and funky. LOVED IT
Thanks so much!! :))

YEEEEESSSSS ERIN SNAPE!!!! I'm absolutely in love with her songwriting since she took part in the Rob Scallon Giveaway!!!
That traffic piece made me think at Franco Cesarini's images of a city, that's so good!
That 16 year old girl makes me feel inadequate. How the hell is she so good?!?
I need her on my indie folk playlist
@@Symphonicrockfran I usually don't even enjoy the genre!!!
practice probably!!
Dedication and passion go a surprisingly long way
@@FISHYFILMPRODUCTIONS fuck yeah man, we can all be stars.
LOved the Sax, duo with Traffic. Smart idea, and definitely a hint of something that could have been from a movie soundtrack... put me in mind of a playful cue from Leonard Bernstein.
PS Matt Damon's younger brother in the cream top?
Erin's piece reminds me of if Pomplamoose covered a Falsettos song. Great work!
I've been to the place the violinist was recorded!! It's Hillman Hall of Westminster Choir College! The room is designed for choir rehearsal, so your example of a choir is PERFECT!
Not every day you see an EWI player! That EWI/Moog version was amazing, and I loved Happy as well
EWI girl here, thank you so much!!
Lucia Sarmiento thanks! Love your channel already
Thank you:):):) -moog
I’m a retired music teacher and just found your channel. Totally blown away at your profound understanding of style, harmony and nuance, etc.! Great comments to these young kids, and the other vids I watched of you are outstanding as well! I think I’ll go throw rocks at my diploma... (Kidding, but you have a rare gift!)
I really admire your dedication to music education. After watching the content you create, I always end up wanting to grab my bass and make some music. Thanks!
11:34 That "Ugh, jazz!" and accompanying head wobble kills me.
Erin Snape, wow! Looking forward to hearing more of her music.
Adam Nely makes great content, his critiques are great, he always treats people with respect, any evaluation he makes always has objective fundaments that are also useful as advice on how to improve. This video is full of value.
The violin kid needs to make more of the beat itself. He should stomp about as he plays. Even folk music needs to hit on The One.
Adam Neely is as good or better than any music teacher I've ever had, and I'm a classically trained guitarist and composer who had had some amazing teachers.
Thank you! I will make sure to work on those things, great video!😁
Just been over to Erin's channel, and needless to say a lot of us have done exactly that... Sweet that she was confused by all the sudden traffic to her channel, not having realised that Adam had featured her here. Go subscribe, kiddies! Creativity should be applauded, and encouraged.
When I was 16 I was just playing Megaman on my Game Boy and this girl is out here writing solid musical jams where did I go wrong
That last guy was totally nuts, super awesome! And the girl from the UK as well
I don't know why the friendly whale description might be insulting. I'd love to be quiet to let a friendly cartoon whale speak. Friendly whales are pretty much the definition of nice and good and lovable and cool.
Lets make upright=whale a thing, I love that idea!
Jeez Adam, could you choose a few submissions that aren't awesome? Feeling a little inadequate here. Joking apart, what an inspiring bunch!
Since this is a series about helping people get good at music, will you have Adam "Nolly" Getgood come on at some point to critique people in the world's smoothest British voice?
I love that Adam has his Casio Rapman on a stand on top of his Moog in the back ground :D
"Sounds like traffic (...) I love it - Adam Neely
He probably misses the sound of traffic, being a New Yorker in a lockdown
wow all the submissions i really enjoyed
and props to Adam for solid advice some points that were brought up i didnt even think of

That Traffic tune sounded awesome! Really reminded me of Steve Reich in a way, heh
Damn, that Tank cover was really cool.
Thank you 😊
Adam! You need to add disclaimer on this vid about how inspiring these videos are! Because now, in the middle of night, I just can’t sleep!!!😁😁😁
Erin brought the Pomplamoose reference HARD! She was amazing!
You really II-V'ed in to the sponsorship man great job
"The next victim is" 8:24 proceeds to meow
Erin must be so happy now! I swear - that's amazing. Adam, you make drems come true! Keep on doing that, please!

Adam: Overall, it’s just a really great chord
Thanks, Adam. You're already good at music. But you're getting pretty good at youtube episodes as well. And thanks again for introducing these incredible talents! Go, Adam, go!
8:26 love the meow scatting. I do it all the time lol
Daaaamn lots of new discoveries. I really liked Erin Snape too and also that powerful EWI + Moog duo right after !
That cover of Tank slaps so god damn hard! Love it!
Dang, I just wanna be able to give an extra thumbs up for so many of the individual entries. Great stuff!
ah yes, who needs bass solos when you have friendly whale sounds?
man, every single submission had at least one super awesome thing to it
2 videos in one week. What a treat
Great vid! Lots of straight up really good performances and creativity in this one too!
I really liked the tune by Guto Dosso!
Damn...everytime I see the musical level of these people I just feel like...ashaned and absolutely inspired, like holy shit! They are amazing
Ha, Adam! You finally discovered Erin! I've been a fan since she entered a Rob Scallon contest (and didn't win, shame !).
At 16, she already has a sound and style, amazing!
