I'm convinced that you can play slap on just about any instrument and make it sound amazing. We need to hear slap banjo or slap dulcimer next.
Slap trumpet could be interesting...
Second for slap banjo
Slap a theremin.
@@CharlesBerthoudsounds like you already had that in mind 🤔
@@CharlesBerthoud As a former trumpet player.... there certainly were times we wanted to slap the trombones in concert band... ;-)
Charles isn't just a bassist, he's a pure musician.
Yes and it blows my mind as an absolute polar opposite of a musician.
He is a Master of Music. Not to mention, he seems like a nice guy, too.
As we should all strive for
Wow, you’re right Charles.
Slap 6-string-short-scale-piccolo-bass does sound weirdly FUNKY! And jazzy…!
Wait a damn minute 🤣
I was looking for this comment! 🤣
lol
Should have been the title 😂
One thing I've noticed is that, no matter how busy and technical your playing gets, it's always cleanly-executed and highly, HIGHLY melodic. I know you're a bassist almost full-time, but I for one would LOVE to see you have a slap guitar/slap bass/piano trio video. That'd be...amazing.
Just a normal piano? May as well go for a slap piano...
Bass and guitar absolutely have their place in the slap world. Both have unique approaches to achieve the same results. Always a fantastic watch!
Polyphia - great example of that.
Always enjoy the positivity you spread around the many music channels on RUclips, hope you're having a wonderful day yourself!
Look at Regi Wooten's slap battles vs Victor. Guitar vs Bass, weird stuff but fun.
@@Kily9 and John 5
@@Kily9 Polyphia - the most recent example of that. Reggie Wooten has been playing slap guitar for literally decades.
If you made me listen to this for the first time with my eyes closed, I could've sworn it was Ichika. A bassist playing the guitar on this level this nonchalantly is mind-blowing.
Exactly, very Ichika like!! Beautiful stuff
I thought the same
There's something with playing piano as the first instrument. Both ichika and charles did that. And both actually started out on bass. Ichika started playing guitar when he was 15 i think while charles stayed with bass
you’re right it is very ichika-esque
Not even full-time guitarists have the guts to post videos with this clean of a tone, well done sir!
It's likely cleaned up a bit in post, but it's still a great tone and he's remarkably talented.
Lots of shredders are doing that these days. Clean guitar tone is the new "thing" in prog/instrumetal. Ibanez even put out a Tim Henson signature nylon string acoustic-electric guitar. Where have you been? :)
@Inconclusive What makes you say that it's cleaned up?
Brandon Acker would like a word with you.
@@cedarhsu gotcha, thx.
Apart from technical abilities, what makes Charles more alluring is his melodic approach. What a musician!
The exact reason why i also love ichika compared to a lot of other modern guitarists. Tim henson and generally polyphia have ridiculous technique, but their songs are not easy to listen to because of their techniques. Ichikas music is very soothing, complicated, yet very easy to follow
Damn, that is a funky ass groove! 🤟🔥
0:45 this part is so beautiful, i love those eighth notes into that chord, he builds up tension and resolves it so nicely
Ditto. That really caught my ear, had to go back and check it out a second time.
Best part indeed
If it has strings, I'm thinking this dude has a fair chance of being able to play it, and play it well. He is a picture of what a musical gift and a ton of practice can do.
Literally one of the best musicians alive today on the planet today.
Charles can pick up any instrument and play it with mastery😂😭❤️
Not a flute... no idea how people play those things 🤣
@@CharlesBerthoud let us see that
And flamboyantly
I have no idea how to play the flute either. I can’t even make a sound 😂
@@CharlesBerthoud yeah how can you slap a flute? If you can't slap it, its useless...
That last chord was awesome.
I’ll never understand how he can come up and play these pieces but I’ll always be here to listen to em
My guess is weed. Lots of weed.
@@dickfitzwell523 I'd say practise. But fair enough
@@dickfitzwell523 Ima have to hop on this 😭 I feelin so uncreative lately
Practice learning plenty of songs from different genres and also keep an eye on how certain musicians play their instruments, you might find a technique that works right for you.
Ide say he's listen to a life time of different music with his ears and practice. Some people listen to music differently than other people, and his brain has absorbed a little bit of everything I imagine.
Wow, this man is right up there with the best of them! He's one of the few, solo artists I could actually listen to.
should check out Japanese guitarist Miyavi. He is known for his guitar slapping
That 6-string short-scaled piccolo bass sounds nice!
An album made by you where everything is written, played, and produced by you, I’d buy it.
i genuinely want this as a full song
The clarity is absolutely mind-blowing. The melodies are so fantastic and rich, technical ability out of this world. I could listen to this all day long and never get bored one second. It's almost a shame that you're not a guitarist cause holy do I wanna hear more of this!
Now we just need a bass line to make this complete
and some drums
Plus more bass
He's a pretty good guitarist, but I wonder if this guy can play bass.
Need a full version of this Song ! This is just phantastic
Sounds like something Ichika Nito would write if he was asked to play some funk
That double-stop tapping is 🤌🏼 mwah!
Love you , Charles. Everything you do is magical. 😄
Yet more proof that bassists make better guitarists, than guitarists make bassists
God this is so sick, I’d love to hear something like this in a full band setting
Polyphia
@@TsunamiHige this is like polyphia but with better taste
Strong Intervals - Touch and Go album vibes in this one!
I would do anything to be able to play like that um, you know, except practice 6 to 8 hours a day for years on end. Thank you for doing that for us.
Listen, I’m a guitar player but I prefer bass more in most situations, but this is unironicly the best vid you have ever made
One of the best overall musicians IMO
True
lovely! the part starting round 0:32 reminded me of ichika nito
You have way too few subscribers. ☹️ You're a poly-instrumentalist, dammit, with a fertile musical mind! So many people are missing out on what you offer.
@markusarubuche😂😂😂 3 subs
Too few? He's basically a new channel still. He's had a ton of growth and he's at the point where he has so many subs that it's nearly impossible for him not to branch out away from RUclips in some form or another. That's the way it should be. It's easy to forget how big those numbers are when you see bigger numbers all the time but 1.5 million is a lot. Even 100,000.. concert tickets, merch, physical and digital album sales. That could be millions and millions of dollars 👍 I hope he's so successful he never has to show his face on RUclips again. He's that good
Charles Berthoud: The Slap Trumpet is VERY jazzy.
i will wait for this
Please do a full length of this. It's very pleasant.
That's the way to livin up any hotel room
Особенно поражает аккуратность исполнения! Прям огонь!
This sounds like the outro to a feel good slice of life anime and I'm here for it.
You better post a video with a funkalicious bass track playing over this
This soulds almosl like Ichika Nito. Awesome playing!
This is just pure insanity. You're legit the best bass player I know
honestly this probly one ofmy new favorite songs i mean it gets you into that fonkey mood
That was amazing Charles! Very funky, musical, technical, all at once. Please keep slapping the guitar!
You are very agile and talented.
Great work..
To pluck on a bass with as much umph as you do and then go pluck so delicately on a guitar is the real kicker here. The control the fella has.
The truly gifted make it look effortless...He funk out and slap on a banjo...or even a ukulele
You've been at it again, I see. Bravo, Charles! Very nice indeed.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Charles playing the saxophone. Man is an orchestra. And how well it plays.
Amazing as usual Charles, you just keep setting your bar higher!
Pure pleasure 🙏 thank you ❤️🔥
Charles, you are a once in a generation instrumentalist and we all feel lucky to be alive at the same time as you
what part of your body should i massage?
Charles would be good mechanic as well. He'd just slap broken car, and it'd be fixed right away
I know I’ll never be as good as you, but you definitely make me inspired to get better. I’ve improved so much on guitar in just the past few months, but I’ve got a long way to go to be able to compose anything like this. You’re my favorite RUclips Virtuoso. Keep up the good work!
absolutely sublime... just straight up ear candy
You're an absolute machine mate! It would be amazing to see what you could do with one of those hybrid guitars, the ones with like 3 bass strings and 5 guitar strings and the separate bass/guitar pickups
Imagine a mix between Ichika Nito and Charles Berthoud. Well, this is precisely what this video sounds like. Awesome ! So clean it's disgusting
That is absolutely amazing, one man band with a single instrument.
I know its 2 weeks old, but I still can't get enough of this 1 minute lick of this beautiful song.
Ok man! That's enough with these guitars!... You should finaly play slap on a double bass!!!! That would be a real thing!!)
Beautiful playing, Charles!
It's scary how clean this is.
There should be a challenge amongst youtuber musicians to swap instruments. Bassists play the guitar and guitarists play the bass.
Waiting for "When a bassist slaps a piano"
Nice!! Had my toes tapping from note one.
Not only the best bass player on the planet, but easily one of the best guitarists too !
I started playing guitar again after a 27 year hiatus following the theft of all my equipment which was irreplaceable at the time, and I just became an appreciative but heartbroken listener. But while scrolling through RUclips videos one evening about 5 months ago I came across a man named Charles Berthoud playing 4 Green Neon Strings. I was absolutely blown away and spent the whole day in complete awe listening to one of his videos after another.
A few days later on my next day off from work I went to guitar center and bought two guitars. I now have 6 and a Marshall JVM 205H head and 4X12 cab and am practicing every waking hour that Im not at work. Thanks Charles! You woke up the music in my soul again!
It sickens me that people like 4 chord Sheeran is a multimillionaire making garbage music every month, yet true talents like Charles are not even heard of outside of YT.
Real bruh, but Ed Sheeran aint bad. I'd say 90% of the new pop songs late 2022 till now
Incredible as always.
sounds like taken out of several games and anime sound tracks from the early 2000's
This man has unlocked prestige 1 as a musician
So beautiful!!! Thank you!
moving from that big ass strings and play this thing would be feels like a butter
Yes!
Groovier than the surface of the greatest Motown LP!
Sounds amazing🎶
Jazzy funky……impressive
Hell yeah, we need more guitar!
This is the most tastiest lick ive heard in a long time thanks
You just simply amazing musician man!
Brilliant as always!
So MANY of the channels to which I SUBSCRIBE write post TITLES this way. Anyway, I ENJOYED that MUSIC. Thanks for SHARING.
That was awesome... Thanks for sharing this
That is a beautiful sounding guitar
When ever I pick up a guitar I'm like 'what is this tiny thing?'
Dude you are not of this world!!! Your playing is a thing of beauty and leaves my mind wondering how its possible to be that good ???
Well done and keep up the amazing work my friend as long as you are making videos ill be watching them
this video make me feel so bad omg, i've been playing since 2007, and cant even think in playing a half of it
I trust in you my brother
This reminds me a lot of Ichika's playing! But with more bassist influence.
Just brilliant.
Always so clean and natural
Thank you for this
I wouldn't mind seeing you do more guitar stuff. But anything from you is a treat.
How is it that Charles is SO GOOD at literally every instrument he touches... 🤯
Got them guitar skills too!! Damn
the softer, tappier bit in the middle sounded eerily similar to Ichika. Don't get me wrong, I loved it.
Someone’s been hanging with Ichika during the holidays…
wow that sound AMAZING
That sounds like a tv show theme song from the to 90s and early 2000s
Next video: I SLAPPED a TRUMPET, and it sounds AMAZING
This guy could slap a taco and it would sound heavenly.
At 0:12 for a sec I thought you were gonna start playing Renai Circulation
Chaii !! Charles you're amazing!!
Beautiful tone bro! Funky stuff!!
