How To Play Better Bass Lines | You'll Hear It

[@jonghunlee4621]

I can't believe this channel has less than 50k subscribers with such good quality videos full of useful information without being too intimidating. Thanks for another great video guys

[@Joshsclips]

Over 400k now, which I’m sure you’re aware of, but crazy to think about

[@bennygreatpeople]

Hey Guys- Just want to join the chorus of gratitude. Thank you for sharing your stunning knowledge and experience with the public. It feels like every time I watch one of these, I leave with something valuable.

[@tennysondonyeacoleman9011]

Thanks!

[@felixhoezen3935]

Yes, exactly what I needed👍👍👍

[@amyga251]

Yo Spikida Dudes! Every minute of this podcast was beautiful. Thank you so much! I've been needing this one for ages. And yeah - it's the foundation for a whole piano course :)

[@jeffreydelisle7337]

Wow, great pointers about bossy nova at the end!

[@DonyaLane]

Hey guys, I may have a cool suggestion for you. I think it would be helpful (and cool) if you each played on a different keyboard sound. Like, whoever is playing bass and low register stays on a piano patch, and the other player switches to a Wurli or Rhodes, etc. And vice versa, depending on who is doing what. I think it would very informative to the listener to distinguish what each of you is playing!

[@josephshahady8308]

Agreed!!!

[@Whatever-ew4ti]

Apparently they took this advice

[@geocosmicvalentine]

Where's the new score link?

[@quentinmorales]

My favorite so far! Keep it up guys!

[@GrumpyStormtrooper]

favorite jams form the episode 20:47 24:48

[@brendaboykin3281]

Adam looks so clean cut!

[@danielo174]

I'd love you guys to do a deep dive on basslines, like this video but with sheet music examples . Any chance.? This video was great but i don't know how to bring it to my practice session. Love your content as always though.

[@amileoj9043]

Bass! (tm) But seriously: great episode guys, and good call leaving room to cover the bossa groove at the end, which is still so misunderstood.

[@jegoy68]

Thank you teachers!!! Loved it!! Inspiring!! :-)

[@cjsteinway5014]

Can’t see the New Score link

[@Zoco101]

Thanks for making me think harder about using two's. Good option. But one can't really play two's much in All The Things because the melody is so sparse. I like that later you filled it out more. I sometimes include 1,5,10 pattterns in this tune - yes in 4/4. I like the concept of this video, and I'd like it even more if the options for assorted instrumental contexts were more fully explained: How the bass lines work with solo piano vs piano & guitar vs two pianos, and so on. I often see budding pianists practising (on their own of course) with insufficient ability to play solo, but without a clue about how they might fit their ideas into a jazz combo. So they don't progress. They get stuck trying to do too much and losing the beat in the process. By the time a teacher gets called in, it can be too late.

[@CutsAreBeautiful]

23:19 felt like Song for my father in C minor^^

[@nrauschermusic]

20:20 That's...not how the melody to Chameleon goes. It's definitely on the downbeat when the Head Hunters play it. Is there a particular recording you're referencing?

[@GrumpyStormtrooper]

I would pay a lot to hear a double piano rendition of Quiet Nights like that, and a crazy double hand Oscar Peterson style solo on it too.

[@piano_man3404]

Hey Adam, I don't see the Link to Musescore you mentioned at the beginning.

[@DUANEYAISER]

piano_man Same here! But when I got it at the App Store, even though it talked about notation, the app itself appears to merely be a score reader. I’m a little confused.

[@jasonzurlo1543]

@@DUANEYAISER the notation software is only on desktop. The app is just a score reader

[@DUANEYAISER]

Jason Zurlo Ah, I gotcha. Thank you for telling me!

[@0scill8r]

Lift the ground on one of those direct boxes thank you very much. 😅 Just kidding love the work you guys are doing.

[@ndouabenkouadio4836]

Super Cool, S.V.P je peux avoir les partitions ???

[@sshawnuff]

Maybe we should mention lilypond when we talk about high class free musical notation software.

[@soureel]

Adam and Peter- I'm curious what make/model 88-keyboards you use in your studio.

[@weedanwine]

I think the M-Audio Hammer 88

[@HakanTheUltimateHoca]

20:43 tho

[@qpianist5918]

What keyboard are both of you using?

[@rloggen]

21:30 Ah the funk! You guys...

[@DrGates-vc1nx]

First of all, where did Adam put his beard? This is an outrage.

[@book3100]

Which is why I play a five string. Nothing wrong with four, but having that low B is great imo

[@michaelcollinsmusic45]

This is good ... Learning a lot.. Pls how can one perfect Adding enclosures in the middle of lines. And pls could you do a tutorial on adding arpeggios to your lines. Thanks Peter and Adam🙌🏽

[@Osnosis]

Identify a target note for the 1 or 3 (beat), then on the other beat create a two-note enclosure into the target.

[@LevieSolonka]

🔥🔥🔥✔✔✔

[@dangfd551]

Should use different colors for the two midi keyboards and overlay the keys so you can see who’s playing what

[@eqapo]

youtube: here's a tutorial on how to play walking bass **just starts walking bass** me: HOW I must be stupid because even the dumbed down root and 5ths don't make sense to me. Does someone have sheet of just the most basic F or Bb groove I can drill into my head??

[@jman12849]

it's simple, just play either the root or fifth of the chord! for an F blues for example, if you're playing in a two-feel with two half notes per measure, just start simply. For example, notes of a two feel for the first 4 bars of an F blues [F7 / Bb7 / F7 / F7]: F C / Bb F / F C / F C/ Bb F /

[@calebraysilcott9471]

So let’s take part of F 12 bar | F7 | Bb7 | F7 | F7 | Bd7 | Bb7 | F7 | F7 | So F7 is the notes f, a, c, e flat. Bb7 is the notes b flat, d, f, a flat. So for each of those bars pick 2 notes for F chords mostly f notes or c notes and for Bb chords mostly Bb notes or F notes. Really you can pick from any of the notes in the chord but think of the closest note of the next chord will help to not be jumpy. Hope that helps!

[@bobgreen1236]

5 bass players afraid of losing their gig disliked this....

[@kevincole9657]

"bloated piece of crap" is my stage name!

[@ili626]

Stop damaging our ears.. ha! @23:25

[@sloperdad4835]

Wish Peter would stop playing over Adam. Trying to learn but all Peter wants to do is show off.

[@marvindias1377]

Disagree completely Peter is the GOAT much better pianist and teacher clearly- would much almost rather hear Peter just keep playing and explaining so much information 😮‍💨😮‍💨🔥
