According to "Funky Monks", the documentary showing the making of BSSM, Flea had said he was shifting his focus from being flashy and crazy to doing what was best for the song. I think Rick Rubin may have also influenced that.
I was mostly influenced by mike dirnt from green day to play bass however I’ve stated to learn to slap 👋 as it is most complexe and is greatly improving my bass skills even more 🤟
Are you dumb? Slap in Californication in the order that they appear, with proof: Get on Top (all throughout the song) ruclips.net/video/98HMUWqM4Fo/видео.html This Velvet Glove (chorus) ruclips.net/video/QSylJOG3RKA/видео.htmlm18s Right on Time (medley) ruclips.net/video/1KZ8OTV8nko/видео.html Oh and here's flea proving you wrong... ruclips.net/video/KQOFAhqGG9k/видео.htmlm27s ruclips.net/video/0iS4xmm6F6E/видео.html Before you make ignorant comments calling other people dumb, you need to listen carefully and know what you're talking about, because you yourself, are the dumb one in this situation.
His technique’s better than Flea’s lmao (I love Flea but his slapping technique is only really good for playing RHCP and stuff that requires fast octaves)
I agree, he’s technique is insane and there is not a single flaw which I reckon is why it sounds like he has little groove, No mistakes and imperfections leads to it losing the funky, dirty feel
Probably because he plays with his thumb upwards, while Flea plays with his thumb downwards. Many slappers prefer the upwards way, I don't really dig it. It lacks the grittiness in sound that downwards has.
this is the most precise and clean slap i've ever seen !!! you really ought to put out some slapping lessons , although just looking at you play is a lesson by itself
...bruh your not even playing some of the notes right, your literally playing with only the A D G strings when some are in the E as well, Cant Stop wasnt on the fucking D and G string...it was on more strings lmao
@@TheRealestNumber7 lmao, dumbass i play bass my self, not all the damn songs is just using a d g, higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop, and also dark neccessitys so no your fuckin stupid
@@ariblack1576 hang on a second, let me copy and paste the exact thing you said and figure out what is wrong with your counter argument ...bruh your not even playing some of the notes right, your literally playing with only the A D G strings when some are in the E as well, Cant Stop wasnt on the fucking D and G string...it was on more strings lmao "your literally playing with only the A D G strings when some are in the E as well" then in your counter argument you said " not all the damn songs is just using a d g" a clear contradiction, also you spelled you're wrong btw "Cant Stop wasnt on the fucking D and G string...it was on more strings lmao" yeah it was on more and you even said that in your counter argument "higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop" so make up your mind, also its higher ground, with a space "lmao, dumbass i play bass my self, not all the damn songs is just using a d g, higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop, and also dark neccessitys so no your fuckin stupid" this point is just a bullet list about things wrong in the whole list overall -i never said they weren't on an e string -also, dark necessities is spelled wrong -dark necessities actually doesn't have an e in it, its played on the e string so yeah get your facts straight before you argue on the internet, and have a happy holiday
This is why Flea is one of my biggest influences on bass and how I got into slapping
Andrew Pappas you got it!
He slowly got more melodic and less crazy
Jungle Man is quite melodic but I see your point
Yeah, flea himself said he had enough with slapping
@@nspj9rh8bdpvpuwu0vs8 tbh i can see why, its defined his entire career up to this point.
about that,......... Yeah
Crazy that there were so many more slap baselines on The Getaway than on BSSM. Never would have expected that.
never would expected that from 1995 to 2002 they didnt have a single slap bassline
@@konstantincvetanovic5357 Get on Top Middle part, Right on Time are two that i immediately remember from californication
According to "Funky Monks", the documentary showing the making of BSSM, Flea had said he was shifting his focus from being flashy and crazy to doing what was best for the song. I think Rick Rubin may have also influenced that.
@@philipz794 this velvet glove also has slap in the verses
Just now realized how similar Cant stop and Dark necesetties are in the way of basslines
This bass looks so awesome!
Whoah I love your videos
Really funky tone bro
I'm digging that color bass!!!
Bro keeps on glancing at me like I’m trying to steal his wallet 💀
The tone on your pops are amazing. Good job man
Thank you for taking us through the timeline. I enjoyed it! Salud!

How do you do this and skip so much of bssm?
That was really great, but no californication album and just one song from bssm? Hahahahah
Yeah that's what I was thinking. BSSM is like the funkiest of the funkiest
Air Guitar you guys dumb? Californication has no slap in it.
Ending of The Power Of Equality

The song Right on Time has slap in it
blackeyed blond is wrong. but overall GREAT PLAY!
not to mention he didn't do stone cold bush's solo
This is rad, but you've got two more albums to do now!
Bass name?
Flea is worth many millions of dollars. You play excellently. Write some songs
Is that a Sandberg or a Harley Benton?
Cort
how could you skip californication album mate?
Slappin da bass mon
My respect master!!
What kind of bass is that
Try relaxing your left hand. Humble advice, still very entertaining to watch 👍🏻
Great!! Keep on!
great play, man!
Don’t know what’s worse your tone or your stash. Either way keep playin man !
The power of equality?
SpcBuffalo1425/TheWNYRailfan I had to make a 5 minutes video...I could have skipped any basslines
oh ok, nice vid tho!
Great work.
But not including Mellowship Slinky in B Major is a sin.
sliut1 that song dont use slap
Yeah it’s funky but not slapp
No slap what so ever.
Read the title
Where is brood sugar ?
You probably should have put in power of equality cuz half of that's slap
Respect
Awesome
Complimenti :)
Will Galluccio grazie!
Where the hell is green heaven? That's a classic bassline from the debut album...

Californication no tiene slap
Sounds excellent my friend! What jazz bass is that? Thanks
Modulus bass i think
Nothing from Californication?🤔
nice job
sounds great.
but u miss 1 song "show me your soul"
Just realized there were almost no slap bass lines in Californication after you simply ommited the whole album =O
He should have played Get on Top, one of the most badass basslines on the album
He doesn't like that album :p
Cool now do Les Claypool and Primus haha
Primus Sucks
@@saucymemes6696 nicely done
@@saucymemes6696 primus is not bad tho
@@gio_1422 that’s a thing the mega fans say

I’ll buy your Gibson Bass name the price
STONE COLD BUSH?!
True men don’t kill coyotes is one of my favorites.

u may want to fact check your tabs there.

I like your weird technique
Didn't notice any wierd techniques, which one?
His technique’s better than Flea’s lmao (I love Flea but his slapping technique is only really good for playing RHCP and stuff that requires fast octaves)
NEW MEDLEY UPLOADED, another awesome band, another technique, another story to tell! ruclips.net/video/uY8zUf5ZD7U/видео.html
Esqueceu a musica Knock Me Down do Álbum Mother's Milk
You forgot sick love solo
They be some long fingers you have
Where is Californication ?
Sir Mika K. Sorry but I made a slap bass medley, Californication hasn't got any slap basslines at all😉
Roger Salmerón you're right if you consider the whole album Californication, my comment was referred just to the song! :)
Oh it's true I did not specify, but I still loved the video
Charlie thank you so much!!
did you evan read the title
You need to work on your feel bruv, there is zero balls in this. It's not just about playing the notes.
I agree, he’s technique is insane and there is not a single flaw which I reckon is why it sounds like he has little groove,
No mistakes and imperfections leads to it losing the funky, dirty feel
Probably because he plays with his thumb upwards, while Flea plays with his thumb downwards. Many slappers prefer the upwards way, I don't really dig it. It lacks the grittiness in sound that downwards has.
Let's see you play
Get on top?
Bro skipped whole californication
Why Just slap bass lines?
The power of equality chorus?
Cofre RB that's weapons grade funk!
@@Sunkenballs12 don’t know if you’re just complimenting the song or think it isn’t slapped, but just in case it is slapped. HEAVILY
Some basslines are wrong played, you should check them again (f.e. Taste the Pain or black eyed blonde
Davie504 approva! Complimenti!
👏👏👏
You can hear how this bass sounds just by looking at it
I'm not an expert in bass why is there so many pissed people he sounds ok
this is the most precise and clean slap i've ever seen !!! you really ought to put out some slapping lessons , although just looking at you play is a lesson by itself
Nice vid but you butchered the fuck out of Blackeyed Blonde lol
No By the Way...
Can’t Stop is from By The Way ;)
Tun titi tuntun titi
Eh...Brutta l'invidia...🕺
...bruh your not even playing some of the notes right, your literally playing with only the A D G strings when some are in the E as well, Cant Stop wasnt on the fucking D and G string...it was on more strings lmao
lmao did you watch the video, in the example you literally gave he played it correct, wow some people just dont have eyes lmao
@@TheRealestNumber7 lmao, dumbass i play bass my self, not all the damn songs is just using a d g, higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop, and also dark neccessitys so no your fuckin stupid

"your literally playing with only the A D G strings when some are in the E as well"
then in your counter argument you said
" not all the damn songs is just using a d g"
a clear contradiction, also you spelled you're wrong btw
"Cant Stop wasnt on the fucking D and G string...it was on more strings lmao"
yeah it was on more and you even said that in your counter argument
"higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop"
so make up your mind, also its higher ground, with a space
"lmao, dumbass i play bass my self, not all the damn songs is just using a d g, higherground has E in it.. same with cant stop, and also dark neccessitys so no your fuckin stupid"
this point is just a bullet list about things wrong in the whole list overall
-i never said they weren't on an e string
-also, dark necessities is spelled wrong
-dark necessities actually doesn't have an e in it, its played on the e string
so yeah get your facts straight before you argue on the internet, and have a happy holiday
History? Where’s the best album Californication? Thumb down
@@jager9022 hey dumbass, ever heard of This Velvet Glove and Get On Top? Both slapped.
You play only slaps bass bass songs, see more fingers plays songs on right band of rhcp
