You must admit that they are shit hot. I've been playing bass in band most of my life and I can't do anywhere near that speed. All I can say is that they must have practiced a lot more than me. Respect!
My favorite part is just watching on their faces how stoked it makes them feel to be jamming such highly technical yet super funky licks together. Two men on the same level. Not many to choose from.
Totally agree but, I’m about to get flamed, no feel. Playing 5 billion notes a nano second is undoubtedly technical talent at the very highest level but I’d still much prefer a couple of slow notes from Sly Dunbar or many more notes but with feel from Victor Wooten. Each to their own.
@@gdubyadubya8961if you haven’t seen some of Charles’ work on his channel, please do. He does play with a ton of feel. This particular collaboration was more about jamming and less about him building fantastic layers of bass.
@@gdubyadubya8961 In case you are not too familiar with Charles, his "slow" play is just even more amazing than the shredding to me. ruclips.net/video/SeX0Gd8zyLY/видео.html
The fusion, the funky jazz are comeback!!! I love this new generation...Giacomo with Matteo Mancuso are writing the new music ... They are Aliens , of another Planet...and they are italians... We are lucky on this time: we can see them in live and live with their music. Good job...👏👏👏👏💙
@@Ardano62 I think you are very young and so you don't know what fusion been. You wrote many incorrect things: you have to study the Harmony jazz for undestein which kind of music you are listening: the rock Is aggressiv and hard but it rythm is linear Is Always in line, does't have sincopatic bars. The fusion are exacltly what Matteo played in this video: an Amazing sound and musical phrases got inside the tipycal fusion ambient...sincopatic, playin on up or down the battere or levare and many others Amazing fusion riff. You have to listen the fusion music 80 90...Jeff Lorber Fusion...Mezzoforte, Casiopea, U Zeb and many others...do maybe you Can undestein the difference between the fusion dinamic music and the static, lineary rock. But i don't believe you can learn this or other music...becouse your post is hugly of youre Shure convincions...so you not can be open in brain to accept Who tell you the true. Of you are a musician please change job... the agricoltura needs a arms like yours and so you can relax your cofused mind.
@@Gianni-q4w i know jeff lorber, i know fusion, jazz and funk and i love it. I’m just saying that this isn’t like it at all. I know this isnt classic rock but it is closer to instrumental rock like joe satriani than fusion, jazz and funk. Tell me whats really syncopated in this composition. The waterfall of 16 notes are removing any real syncopations. Listen to james brown if you want to learn about syncopation.
I saw your opening for George Benson last night in Napa California. You did a phenomenal performance! Good choice to have you open and get us charged up!
I've been a fan of both Charles and Giacomo for a while now and to see them together is a dream come true!! Two master musicians at the top of their game!! More collabs like this please!! 🎵🎶
Great job. You guys are amazing and truly talented, but this song is way too short. I, like some other commenters, listen to it over and over. Thank you!
They both deserve respect. The hand strength and speed to cover fret distance on a bass, and then the clean intricacies and speed of a six string. I only wish I could play both this way at the same time myself. Truly shows what it means to walk hand in hand.
Giacomo is the most rhythmically precise guitar player I've ever heard. His skills are super human, like a funky alien from another world. And I'm so psyched that he is going to be in San Francisco in July. I saw him in Berkeley last year, and it was incredible!

Giacomo playing through a vintage Fender amp is just so cool.
Excellent work, Melani and Dave!! The range of your works is just mind blowing!! I do t think there’s a style that you can’t take on!! Outstanding work, everyone involved in this!! 🔥👍👍👍👍🔥👍👍👍👍🔥
It's called an envelope filter. There are pedals that will do that for you based on the amount of pressure you put on the strings. Guitarists have been using them for decades. 😀🤟
@@bradleysmith4466 nah, you can clearly see his rig. He just has a wah pedal and the amp. I think they recorded this in post. Notice their amps are also not mic-ed up.
Two of the finest and most creative guitarists of the 21st century. Glad to have seen Giacomo and his band in Washington DC. Keep up the good work boys, you killin it
Taking the time to learn an instrument and practicing a lot perfecting. Not pushing buttons sampling other ppl's music !!!!!!!!! Love it !!!!!! AND they're funky as hell
I'd love that such skills woul be directed to create new DISCO-FUNK bands with great singers in the vein of EW&F...Rick James..Level 42....Jamiroquai.....Bruno Mars....Brothers Johnson....BBQband...Change...Chic etc...
@@ninovladovic2937 Non mi pare priva di anima, ma chiaramente questa non è una performance votata a quello, basta guardare altro di loro due. Detto questo il brano resta funky e gradevole nonostante ci sia una predominanza di tecnicismi, questo mi pare già un risultato pensato e voluto
50% of me wants to practice bass after seeing these videos, and the other 50% doesn't even want to look at my bass ever again
I hear ya, brother! Lol
you gotta change that ratio my dude
Tentation !!!
L’important ce ne sont pas ses capacités, mais le plaisir que l’on prend à jouer SOI-MÊME !!!
There's a lot more to playing bass than a million notes in 2 measures. Enjoy your style and rock on!

no jammin, produced video to produced music, what you hear is not what you see
How are they jamming with 17 jump cuts?
Two Geniuses in action!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
no genius detected sorry.. this is elevator funk
the most technical bass player I have ever seen... amazing.. how come so clean and crazy fast on both slapping and fingering

@@gdubyadubya8961Charles is pretty darn good playing with feel too.
1:37 That pick toss and catch was smooth AF.
I wonder how many takes they did for that.
@@Groteskfull Now I want to see outtakes.
@@Groteskfull was just going to ask that 😆
It was CGI... lol
@@guesswork8332 nah he brotha, hes the "Magneto of Picks"
This is the Funkiest thing I have heard in a while, Incredible job both of you!
Ok guys you really need to put an album out ASAP maybe call it New Age Funk. Have now played this at least 25 times and gets better and better
Or...
S L A P
P A L S
Bro this is a cover lmao.
1:04 -1:33 Bro’s skill is next level getting those Wah wah tones from his guitar without having his foot on the pedal

Second day high! Yesterday on Charles channel new clip with Bernth, today is this! Thank you guys! Continue! Compose, record albums, lots of albums!
Is it asking too much for an album?
Can one person handle that much SLAP?
I'll happily die trying!@@majicks.musick
@@majicks.musick ...without getting knocked out.

This has nothing to do with fusion and nothing with funk. This is just rock with a lot of slap and licks.

Only two minutes of this is criminal. We need MORE!!
I think this is about as good as it gets. Awesome job guys . . .
Imagine if 70s funk bands could future see that, they'd be like.. "what is this sorcery?"
Giacomo, you were amazing live! Come back to Dallas!

x : who said you can slap a guitar
Giamoco : No one
x :who said you CANT slap a guitar
Giamoco : No one
X : then start slap a f*cking guitar
Gasp!!! Extraordinary technique combined with extraordinary musicality. Loved it.
Amazing !!!
2 of my current favorites jamming together. What a treat.

vintage? And of course you'd play through an amp? Their tone is superior to plugins and this is a proper video...
@@Hello_there_obihello there obi funny man
the amp is just a prop
@@Jwk1706exactly, there's not even a mic in front of it!
Dudeeee made it to the top straight from home... amazinG!!! Definately checking that new Turra guitar. that 1:36 pick catching correct!! jaja
Two players on the same level.
Charles lo seguo da anni ed è fenomenale, ma porca miseria tu non scherzi affatto. Complimenti!! 🤟
That timing. Oh my god. THAT TIMING. 🤟🦄✨♥️
Excellent work, Melani and Dave!! The range of your works is just mind blowing!! I do t think there’s a style that you can’t take on!! Outstanding work, everyone involved in this!! 🔥👍👍👍👍🔥👍👍👍👍🔥

These guys play at "I can only dream" levels of skill.
I tuned in to see Giacomo but never paid much attention to Bass Guitar....until today! Stellar performance!
I like the bass a bit better, but they're both SUPER!!!
THAT was just AWESOME! Great job guys!
Writing out these riffs is essential to learning them. Great feel.
GT & Charles B!?!??!?!! Just came out of church!!! Prayers answered!!!!
Bravissimi. Ci auguriamo di vederli spesso su reti televisive nazionali

スラップよりレイキング織り交ぜた指弾きの正確さと速さがえげつない
This is just madness!!!!!!!!
Grande Giacomo, super Charles, spero facciate altro insieme!
La tecnica é perfetta, m’a l’anima della musica dov’é ?

that surelooked fun. very enjoyable. nice.
Giacomo, ti seguo da tempo, e sono felice che ti sei incontrato con Charles, ottima session. Confido che tu abbia il successo che meriti.
WOW!!! AMAZING!!!!
breathtaking!!!
Holy crap...this is incredible.
WOW. ALL Bass players better take a LOOK at this. I'm a FAN.
This is pure blasphemy! souldn't be allowed on any social media! you two are too good and insane and make eveyone else look pathetic, RESPECT!
It would be crazy to hear Max Ostro or Matteo solo over this track. That was sick!
Fingers of fire! Holy cow!
Absolutely CRAZY talent 👏
You guys are NOT 4 real! Thank you so much for making my day! 😁👍
This was beyond epic 🤩🤩
My first bass is arriving today actually I'm really excited.
Step 3: hire ultimate jam drummer

Step 5: bring back jam band glory days.
I am speechless. Love ya, guys, I admire your talent and hard work so much. Keep on funkying!!!
Que mix absurda é essa meu pai amado
This makes me speechless 😮
Excellent ❤
Para mi no es una competencia los dos hacen una ejecución impresionante en conjunto desde su creatividad técnica e instrumento 💯 para los dos
Cool ! I love it !!
