THAT BASS PLAYER THOUGHT HE WAS BEING SLICK N HE GOT SLAPPED WITH THAT HARMONY SO DAMN HARD

[@MrJdsenior]

He was, IMHO...and the result was NUTS!!! ;-)

[@CamKnoppMusic]

Jacob is like a super-intelligent being from another galaxy who has just come here to mess with us

[@gabriellevi734]

Frederico Malaman is one of the best bass players in the world curenntly. Check out some of his work, The guy is awesome!

[@Mikebonthetrack]

Lololol right and looked at the camera as if Jacob couldnt live up to the challenge. I like he reharmed and also played the whole riff on the bottom screen as well lmbo

[@chrisadams7612]

Herbie was like like "Got eemm" and Jacob was all like "easy"

[@Bashanvibe]

Chris Adams ikr smdh

[@phanjazm]

LOL!! 4 REAL. That said this needs to be realsed as a title track on someones cd. Such a beautiful melody and voicings together

[@Scottjazz55]

Very well said Chris.

[@robertkaye5434]

In addition to Jacob's "WTF? Where did that come from?!" intro, what amazes me is how Jacob took a rather brooding and meandering melody and made it into something gorgeous that made melodic and harmonic sense. It was like a creative move in a friendly game of musical chess. Herbie says, "Check." Jacob smiles and replies, "Check. Mate." ;^D

[@AndyChamberlainMusic]

I don't think hancock expected him to fail haha

[@q.8965]

When Herbie Hancock played his melody, I thought, "He's trolling! There's no melody in that!!" But it was clear that both him and Jacob can hear endless opportunities for paths and harmonies that far exceed what I can

[@j.staley7425]

Agree totally!

[@jalenwoods4407]

he deserved that grammy he got

[@HarryVarthakourisOfficial]

Both of them!

[@absentzz347]

2:09 something about Jacob harmonizing his own responses is just so wholesome

[@AreCeeEffEx]

I imagine jacob and herbie have a sort of friendship where instead of sending each other memes they send each other densely layered musical ideas and I am here for all of it.

[@CasualGraph]

2:43 "you're welcome" has never made me quite so happy.

[@tashacope4663]

When Herbie Hancock first played that melody, it did sound strange. Once Jacob added his backing, it sounded like the melody was meant to be, and it sounded beautiful. The power of backing music and a brilliant mind.

The raw material for some of these creations is horrendously difficult. (Miss Nolte?) But somehow Jacob makes it work. His absolute mastery of harmony is jaw-droppingly astonishing.

Seriously where is this guy? Best track by far

[@robertkaye5434]

All over YT, thankfully!

[@Roberth911able]

there is no such thing as "out of tune" for Jacob

[@jordvn.exe_]

Limiting music to a specific tuning standard and temperament limits the colors and possibilities. It does not bug me if something is "out of tune". If a piano or guitar are 15 cents flat, as long as the notes across the instrument are in tune with each other I could care less about whether it is tuned to A-440 or A-432 and so on.

[@Nicole-pt4bx]

out of tune means polytonal for him, hahahahaha

[@andrewprahst2529]

"Ooh this person hit that note 78 cents off? SPICY"

[@Nichi-Ji]

Tuning is all relative. Listen to music from other places and you’ll discover that very quickly

[@reid.7680]

It's amazing how he made that sweet kid from Singapore sound perfectly in tune at all times through microtonal adjustments.

[@Dyshof]

Jacob this is unbelievable. All the series is one of the most astonishing things I have heard in my life.

Right! He's insanely talented, is managed by Quincy Jones, and is friends with Herbie Hancock! Talk about winning!

[@danirichardsonfwhj]

Absolutely Brilliant Jacob. Wonderful use of the harmonic, rhythmic musical language and imagination, tastefully filling in gaps where required. I really love videos like these which inspire musical creativity showing what's possible with higher level harmonic knowledge and skill. I also love what this kind of thing is inspiring everyday people as well as other musicians to do (I heard quite a few excellent ideas from people on this video). I also love what you did with Herbie's wonderful test melody at the end (I could just imagine him rubbing his hands in anticipation and glee). I'll be definitely putting this video on my playlist and will be taking notes. Again excellent upload. God bless

[@DavidBadilloMusic]

The fact that Herbie Hancock is tickled enough to challenge Jacob with a pretty unique/strange melody is just awesome by itself! Jacob is in the major leagues since quite some time ago, hands down! Period. End of story. See ya.
