I love this "chick - tr - chick - chick - tr" sound. Funk can make you head bending more, than thrash metal.

[@williep1626]

Even if most guitar players don't listen or even like disco, this is a really good demonstration on rhythm playing.

[@ElevatedLevetator]

disco guitar is amazing. I love those chords you can heard that back in the mix in for example abba songs, kinda like in this video just a bit less ghost notes

[@greigclement9081]

Both the Bass and Guitar are the heroes in those choppy funk rhythms. I love playing funk styles on guitar, but when you got that bass guitar going through you as you play them - wow

[@LamneYokaMou]

The Fender Strat is an amazing guitar!

[@bassplayer978]

Salut Guillaume. How to convince an old bass player to grab a guitar. Awesome work, everything looks so easy. No useless talk, straight to the point with talent and clarity. You get a new subscriber. Un grand merci

Funk guitar and bass sings for themselves. So hypnotic and beautiful. I am a sucker for dorian, phrygian and lydian. Lydian will never get boring on me though, it would be dope to hear it in more funky songs too. I know dorian is more funky just because it feels calm yet wants to move as crazy as it still can, it is also the main thing in medieval music like Celtic, army and sea shanties. I come to think funk is just an electric medieval, and that is why Shrek does it so hilariously well, you got hypnotic rhythms mainly of dorian mode, you got lots of bass movements and drums, plucked and voice like guitars/ lutes, bells ringing, quick violin stabs, deep surroundings of warm pads and mallets. It really is the same thing.

Nothing beats fresh by cool and the gang. That’s been my go to song for warming up my right hand

[@jackikarmichael65]

Love and adore. If you're from the time, these are the guitar riffs that killed rock guitar until Van Halen came around.

[@tweettweetjones1262]

Then the whole pretty boy glam scene started with Van Halen and stopped when grunge came out in the early 90's.

[@alexkerr5804]

@@tweettweetjones1262 then britpop came along in the UK cos grunge was too negative

[@allstarlord9110]

Merci beaucoup ☺️

[@philippemouillevoix7783]

Excellent ! Voir jouer comme çà me laisse rêveur. J'avoue que j'aurai bien besoin de tutos pour la main droite. Elle est raide comme...oui celle là justement !😂

[@markkempster7367]

Ooh nice vid. Subbed :)

[@GuillaumeVrac]

Thank you 😊

[@EternallyThankful-os6pz]

WOW - I actually have a little more respect for disco - a LOT of those chords were a BEAR to hold and even harder to change between quickly and cleanly...as usual - you did a great job Bro !!

[@williamdon3442]

I know right. Lots of cool guitar parts in lot of these R n B/disco tracks.

[@margix1172]

Disco-funk was created mostly by jazz and classical players WAY more prepared than rock-pop players

[@jfsobostian7716]

Disco demolition day spirit seems still alive when I read comments like this, people judging such a fun and emotional music, liké they're only interested in how fast and complicated they can play

[@blacmanish]

Exactly! Disco only got a bad name cause it was over satuated with crappy, fly by night, bands. Disco pioneers like Nike Rogers ( Chic) played sophisticated jazz like chords to funky rhythms.

[@Guitarplayer724]

Great video, love these songs! Maybe you could a part 2. Include superstition and Play That Funky Music. 😃

[@GuillaumeVrac]

Thanks. That would be great yes.

[@robertopacheco1895]

wow very good

[@GuillaumeVrac]

Thanks for the compliment 🤩

[@BusterRoonie]

[@GuillaumeVrac]

Thanks for the nice comment 😊! And good suggestions 👌

[@JesseFragale]

At 5:37 what does the circles around the power chords mean? Some are brackets some are completely circled G power chord for instance
