    He has such a smooth groove, combined with Louis' drums this has to be one of the strongest modern rhythm sections ever

      You should check out Eric Gales. He does the same thing with guitar and I still don't understand how he plays the way he does with upside down strings.

      i do the same thing as mono! a lot of left handed people get right handed instruments because they are cheaper since there is more demand or the instrument is a hand-me-down

      @YTSparty@@BenLewisBass If you listen real closely, Louis and Rai are deliberately playing just a "smidge" (is that a musical term??) behind the beat. Mononeon, seems to be playing right on the beat for the most part - bringing the ultimate stank funk by emphasizing the "1"!

  • @althejazzman
    @althejazzman 6 месяцев назад +4

    I don't think it's 16th note swing, it's a quintuplet swing, so each beat is subdivided into 5, and accented on the 3rd and 5th of those subdivisions.

    • @NZsaltz
      @NZsaltz 6 месяцев назад +19

      16th note swing is just referring to the 16th notes being swung, not the amount of swing, and frankly I don't think the swing is calculated. It's way too fast to accurately do that, especially listening to the ghost notes in the drum groove. They're probably just feeling it.

  • @chrissturley823
    @chrissturley823 5 месяцев назад

    I don’t dig the vocals or the sax. Not saying they aren’t talented. I just would have preferred a different flavor with the music. The sax felt forced, even though they held it back in the mix (good choice). And the vocals made me uncomfortable. It was generic, if that makes sense. Just my opinion.
