    I can’t believe such valuable and eye-opening content gets so few views. It’s truly disheartening that the gift offered to us by such a master isn’t getting the recognition it deserves. This is hands down one of the most helpful, clear, and visionary bass guitar content I’ve ever seen on TH-cam.
    I hope the low view count doesn’t discourage you and that you continue sharing your incredible insights with us.

    I’m unreasonably pumped for the arpeggio and scale book! I’ve been looking for a bass specific one for ages!!

    One thing I really liked about this is that is forces me to work out my plucking hand pattern to be consistent (I use economy/sweeping motion with Index and Middle, starting with the Index). Taking the time to be consistent with the plucking hand helps me have one less thing to think about when trying to work into the triplets and build up the tempo. Would love to hear a little about your thoughts/approach to this sometime (apologies if I'm overlooking an existing video you've done). Great exercise, thank you!

    Thank you for leaving that moment of very slight rushing against the metronome in the video. In a world where everybody edits the heck out of their virtual lives to only show the idealized perfected version of themselves, it ia reassuring to know that even a master needs to take a second to lock into the rhythm. Much appreciated.

      Man. You are not lying. There is always something raw about live music. Face it everyone screws up. Recoveries are the most important part.
      A lot of the videos you see are lacking small little screw ups and probably edited out the you know what.

    1:34 totally agree. Try to look at Raga against the machine bass lines, those are masterpieces but build on few sounds like "down rodeo" "bullet in the head" or amazing Audioslave "Like a stone"

    I love these kinds of exercises! A strict pattern to follow but enough flexibility to keep it challenging/interesting/musical. Also, you always have great tone but something was really popping for me today, especially in the lower register. Looking forward to the new book!!

    When I studied Jazz many years ago these kinds of exercises were so intimidating that I just gave up before I tried. I think that if I were to practice this today, I wouldn't begin by trying to fit the same phrasing - I mean, the same attacks as the phrase when it was played in eight notes or sixteen notes. I would practice first playing the same notes in a sixteen notes triplet "natural" feel - without thinking of the original phrasing, and very slow. Only after I got the feeling of how they fall in the 4/4 meter I would change the phrasing to the original one. It will be too confusing for me to go straight to playing the same phrase in 16th-note triplets. But this is just me.

      Of course, everything new especially challenging needs to be approached slowly and gradually

    • @NaamaEilon
      @NaamaEilon หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@plus41pseudonymus Yes, what Janek explains at 5:28 is critical to be able to execute the transition of the four sixteen notes idea to triplets. You have to understand where the accents fall in the triplet phrase before you start otherwise it's going to be a very frustrating experience. So either vocalizing it very slowly or playing the notes in triplets and adding the four notes' accent afterward should be the main focus for anyone interested in this kind of freedom.
