Sam Wilkes & Jacob Mann - Soft Landing

[@paxson2000]

I never thought I’d discover a band that perfectly melds the vibes of Earthbound and Weather Report. Y’alls music is so friendly and fun and inviting. Please don’t stop doing what you’re doing

[@ewwitsantonio]

Hehe that's a nice point of reference. Pretty on point

[@bensomeone]

that’s the best description damn, it’s so true

[@iancain6647]

Makes me want to put on some runaway 5

[@nobody_gtk]

dude! I thought the same thing when I was listening to some of their other stuff

[@wadsu]

oh, sam’s fretless tone is just so nice. and the combination of filtered analog saw waves are perfect….

[@footrocketco.3050]

This is my new favorite song

[@kturn5953]

I thumbs up before I listen, but then while listening I’m inspired to thumbs up, so I’m left with nothing more to click. Nothing more to show how much I love ❤

[@michaeldavis623]

We love you Jacob!!! ❤❤❤

[@villanixnaxfee380]

Is anyone else getting Pilotwings vibes from this marvelous jam?

[@willespalazzo]

Had been feeling a little lost all day and tired of making music, but this put me right back to feeling inspired. Thank you Sam and Jacob

[@andy-simmons]

That fretless sounds so good with Rolando.

[@Withing_]

This has been stuck in my head for days and I cannot get it out! "Baoweeohbwooooo.... dahbwuuuduuuu" freakin stuck in there over and over... damn you Sam and Jacob!! :D

[@pillowwood]

Been trying to figure out for a while now, if what you're referring to is the keys or the bass, and I love that I can't tell

[@enestahirovic3356]

The "seal slapping its belly" percussion loop from Rolando always gets me, but this tune is just on another level, Metheny, Jaco vibes... Way to go guys, love it.

[@ectobluntus]

*rhythmically slapping own belly* life imitates art. It's beautiful

[@SoundMadeVisual]

Fret Bass just always gives 80s/90s bliss. Timeless sound.

[@trst361]

I do love that you dated the timeless sound in the same comment ; )

[@tom7]

best Guitar Face in the biz

[@teelurizzo8542]

Sam's fretless bass, spinning inventive melodic lines over Jacob's sunny changes and key textures, such great musical chemistry.

[@trst361]

I love the smile at the end as they close out their recording equipment.

[@NattyReevesMusic]

well this is extremely pleasant

[@yishayahubass]

This makes me feel

[@cremefrais]

my dude way up there on the bass fretboard with the vibrato of the century

[@shaun7408]

sitting at the airport, waiting for my final flight back home. couldn’t have come at a better time ❤️

[@Leandro.Esfera]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@JamesGiannoni]

Got damn y'all's music is a breath of fresh air.

[@zzarkS]

This got under my skin. It lives there now. What mastery!

[@snowf00t]

Hearing fretless- seeing frets 👀 I suppose they’re printed. Neat!

[@nohbudinose]

Some necks start life as lined fretless necks, and others are made by removing the original frets and installing strips of wood or plastic into the original fret slot. They are cut flush with the top of the fretboard.

[@justinluy8997]

my goodness, what a mesmerizing song. I love the camera angles too, keeping it raw. Keep playing fellas!

[@tomrabu6698]

wonderful tunes guys, and perfect setting. I can smell the perfume of your music

[@sundayleffe]

one of my fav!

[@Jin-Hu]

Oh goodness, that’s sweet

Loved the Marcus Miller with fretless neck

[@Musicman995]

The fretless has to be up there on the list of best instruments

[@basslabsix]

Ufffffff!!!!!

[@BGeezy4sheezy]

This is beautiful and weirdly reminds me of the Smashjng Pumpkins song “1979”

[@omniversal7]

beautiful!

[@abravo88]

This is so pretty!

[@weaseloption]

Sounds like Bacharach going under an anaesthetic. Brilliant

Nice. For some reason, this played after the gta VI trailer. Not complaining.

[@gustavakesson2758]

[@cmpoole]

Let me just go run a bath real quick....

[@chrisharrison809]

[@tay590]

[@tomrabu6698]

There's a progression that reminds me of Clapton's Layla

[@lolinonusos225]

Nice frankenstein bass

[@eruveo]

[@sampitman3630]

it’s like eberhard weber but kinda videogamey

[@keithwaters7507]

a marcus miller fretless weooooo

[@CH-hh4mq]

Sam lookin like Rick Glassman but more like Rick Assman because he's f***in tonight!

[@ConvenientBullet]

shout out to jerome powell and the fed

[@genepozniak]

Nice tune! :-) Is Sam Wilks legally blind? Can't think of any other reason for putting his face so close to his fingers when he plays.

[@simonhodgetts6530]

You’ve heard of Bill Evans? He wasn’t blind either……..

[@genepozniak]

@@simonhodgetts6530 Evans played with his face about 2 feet away from the piano. Wilkes plays about 6 inches away from his bass. I'm not knocking him, just really curious because it looks so uncomfortable. :-)

[@vovag2655]

MM fretless????????????
