Hi everybody! Thank you so much for all the views and your lovely comments!! If you're a bassist and you'd like to learn these bass lines, you can download the Backing Track AND a PDF file (notes and tabs). The link to your free download is in the description. Thanks again and may the funk be with you. Idogo
When many people talk about Jamiroquai, they think about Jay K but the entire band is amazing and cheers to Stuart Zender for many of these fantastic bass lines. Many of these basslines from Zender are the groovy reason many folks out there like these songs
Jamiroquai’s music is roughly 25 years old. But it doesn’t sound old. It sounds classic. It’s like some 70s soul music never gets old. The definition of classic is it never sounds old forever. In this way, I prefer the early years of Jamiroquai.
Jamiroquai are my wifes favorite band and I'm bass player. These things aren't connected but i do come back and watch this video every couple of weeks. Great video, great sound and great groove!
Let's be honest: there are far more than 6 classic Jamiroquai basslines. That band is a goldmine when it comes to basslines, mainly due to Stuart Zender (Nick Fyffe and Paul Turner also have some nice ones). Aspiring bassists, learn Jamiroquai songs (particularly the first 4 albums, as Stu played on them). They're so fun to play.
@@Idogomusic we need to tell the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure anime studio to use that Jamiroquai song for their next season's anime ending since the character Weather Report is basically inspired by the band look wise. They've always used a famous rock band song for their anime ending themes.
@@fastbike6764 Jojo has never referenced this song, nor anything relating to Jamiroquai. Jay Kay's Buffalo Man is only tangentially similar to Weather Report's hat, since they look very distinct otherwise. (The Buffalo Man probably isn't even wearing a hat. It looks more like hair.) The horns are of a different shape and length, and so is the shape of the hat, with Weather's being cylindrical, unlike the Buffalo Man's more spherical head. In fact, Jay has never worn the Bufflao hat in any live performance, often employing different hats and headdresses. This mostly comes from a fan animation rotoscoping Weather over Jay, but it is not reference made or intended by Araki (as his references are often more blatant.) Neither property influenced the other, and it is a fact that Jamiroquai is not referenced in any shape or form in the series. Besides, the lyrics that match up are few and far between. The majority of the song has no connection with SO, since Jay isn't singing about children switched at birth and whatnot, he's singing about how the future is slowly being consumed by technology that disconnects us from reality (relative to when the song was written), and how people are accepting and even welcoming the "insanity", including Jay himself. Any similarities are purely coincidental, nor is there any evidence to assume Araki was specifically influenced by this song, and this song as it stands far precludes SO.
Ya Jay Kay!!!!! Awesome video. 😁 I saw y'all live back in the day, when I was still living in Florida. It was at The Sunrise Theater in Fort Lauderdale. Soooo good. 😎👍👍
Tenho certeza que você não compreende meu idioma, mas sua performance da linha de baixo do Stu me trouxe paz!!! Obrigado. Hugs from Brazil. Viva Jamiroquai - Stu and JK forever.
I don’t know s thing about Jamiroquai but I do know and you killed that. I see a big learning curve for coming over as a guitarist! You get your sound from your attack with right hand. The thumb slaps (I am impressed) look like a whole new language. lol. I guess I am all in for some Jamiroquai. I do like a lot of different styles.
I clicked on the suggested thumbnail, as I thought 'J-Kay, playing bass covers to his own music?'..... I didn't realise it wasnt him, until after the video & I went to the comments
Jamiroquai and Bass, you played them great! My favorite album is rock dust light star... I’m the man on the moon, hope I don’t come back to soon, am I the only one to see the light...
Almost immediately after starting to listen to this, I got crazy feelings if deja vu. These songs remind me so much of the Persona (3+) OSTs. There has to be some connection.
The connection is the genre. From what I've seen, acid jazz seems to have peaked in popularity around the late 90s but never really solidified itself as an enduring part of mainstream culture. Now, I'm gonna put on my tin foil hat for a second. Another genre that peaked in the late 90s is city pop, which could be described as Japan's response to American 80s pop. It's almost like it took a decade for that musical style to move from America to Japan. Now we have another example of that happening; acid jazz peaking in America in the 90s, then the Persona soundtrack (as well as the original Gran Turismo music that other comments have likened this to) being written in the 00s. So, maybe Japanese musicians just really like America's decade-old music for some reason? That's the best answer I've got.
Japan loves a lot of 70s-90s genres, jazz and Brazilian music. You even hear influences in some modern J-Pop songs. They also love EDM and classical music.
Thank you so much for doing this, I can only imagine how busy you must be. I am a huge fan and have all your albums on all formats. Unfortunately never got to see you live, but something I hope to do next time you tour.
IMHO ater the first bass player left the band lost some of it's magic, Stuard Zender had a way of playing that was groovy and very melodic at the same and that element elevated the music in a way.
Exactly! Stuart might be my favorite bass player of all time, no kidding! Same thing kinda happened when Eric Avery left Jane's Addiction or when Dirk Lance left Incubus.
His groove, tone, phrasing was very unique and is difficult to replicate. Not that his lines are super difficult to play, but trying to simulate his feel gives you an appreciation for what special musician he is.
Gosh, that got me moving this morning 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 but music of today should go back and listen to all this and go back to masking real music and put the computers down. Brands like Jamiroquai, the Brand New Heavies, Incognito, funk bands from the 70’s like Slave, Parliament just to name a few those were people that made music. Kids nowadays know nothing about that. They think using keys, Dubstep and all that crap is music, sorry. Funk will always be the true essence of music!
Hi everybody!

Thanks again and may the funk be with you.

Idogo Music SICK MAN!! love this band and I think this is the perfect sort of exercise I needed on bass
Dude, you are awesome on that bass!!
This is really good
Merci 👽✌
Merci pour la partition!
You are actually impressive

Thanks for sharing that information..I always wondered it's because of that is why I love the music 🎵🎶
The Main bass line was created by Paul Turner
Jamiroquai’s music is roughly 25 years old.
But it doesn’t sound old. It sounds classic.
It’s like some 70s soul music never gets old.
The definition of classic is it never sounds old forever.
In this way, I prefer the early years of Jamiroquai.
It's timeless.
That last album was garbage.
Hahahaha. And you heard of Stevie Wonder and Earth Wind and Fire. No diss to Jay but thats why..
funk is never out of style
Music with such a good flow, it's like a running stream of energy at the exactly the right speed, makes you wanna shift gear.
Absolutely timeless!
The 3 first Jamiroquai albums are unreached.. my all time favourites
Every now and then YT comes up with a gem. Today is that day.
Nice playing..
After I hear too young to die, I start to consider that bass is my most favorite instrument!
Bass is the best!
If you like that sound, you should check some of the tracks from the games Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal. They're real good.
@@ass5778 thanks for the info
Wise choice.
Stuart Zender :)
Without vocals it sounds like old Gran Turismo menus music 😁
This could have been Out Run however
I was just about to comment the exact same
true
When you washed your car and changed the oil in GT4 😂
OMG, YES!!!
Bass is the King in every music!
Jamiroquai are my wifes favorite band and I'm bass player. These things aren't connected but i do come back and watch this video every couple of weeks. Great video, great sound and great groove!

Time won't wait should definitely be on the list
Agreed ! I picked up a bass a year ago and have been playing along to this video as my warm up every single day ! Zender is the GOAT !!!
Jamiroquai jumped the shark by letting Stuart Zender go, he was a masterful groove machine. And only 17
on Jamiroquais debut album. My fav bassist.
No way! I never knew he was so young!
Clicked for the hat - stayed for the groove!
Thanks for clicking...and staying
@@Idogomusic You are slick mate
Clicked for the groove, stayed for the hat
Clicked for the self intoxication stayed for the smell of self intoxication
I thought is Jam himself. Stayed because I was impressed with revolution. Jam really did define a sound and grooved the hell out of the 90s
Love the bass! The hat! And the playing!
Thanks!
The Emergency on Planet Earth part allowed me to transcend to Heaven.
Your room and furniture should be sliding around behind you.
Priceless. I wish

Thank you! Love your channel
@@Idogomusic Thanks!
The dude Stuart is one of my favourite bassists.
The funk lines he created on record are awesome.
Loved this....
I like Jamiroquai, nice insanely funky bass player Stuart Zender.
He slapp
He attac
He fingerstyle
Approve ✔️

Right! No need to send it around for approval.
Not my favourite guitar but this guy makes it sound good.
When did Jay Kay start playing bass?!
You learn something new every day 😁😁🤣
@Diego Alonso Hi Diego. Sure, You can check the description of the video. I've added all that info there. Thanks for watching
always
@@Idogomusic damm funky love it. Love that phat sound. Bass play with too much treble nowadays. But you have turned up the bass
@@robertomusitano4238 It's all about that P-Bass 😉
I love Zender's bass lines.
And the Fender Pbass is so fitting with this style of music. Just sits so well.
Dude! That was freaking awesome, love me some Jamiroquai! Outstanding Job! Do that stuff!
Thanks for watching! Keep it funky 🤘
Such a great bass player Stuart Zender, Totally original.
Jamiroquai's bass lines are always fun to play!
As for me I really love the bassline in "Manifest Destiny". Cool thing!
Zender was the best in Jamiroquai! Awesome basslines!
He was great, but my personal favourite was Smith
Paul Turner had some pretty good ones also! :)
Music Nonstop. Well Dun Homie, this was Massive.
Thank you 👍
This is now one of my favorite Bass videos. Thanks man for the distraction from life.....
Thanks. I know how you feel...
James Jameson's funk bass lives on!
Paul Simmons melodic bass ! The man !
Ya Jay Kay!!!!! Awesome video. 😁
I saw y'all live back in the day, when I was still living in Florida. It was at The Sunrise Theater in Fort Lauderdale.
Soooo good.
😎👍👍

Eu não teria.. já que o pai dele é português, provavelmente ele deve compreender um pouco.
ALL I WANNA DO IS TRAVELLING WITHOUT MOVING!!!!! WOW,GREAT MAN!!!!

Haha same here
Super nice playing bro. Love this baselines, the whole Jamiroquai band is super tight, most notably the bass playing
🙏
Very cool, thanks for that. I sold my bass for some stupid reason but you're making me want to get another one!
Go get it! Bass is life
Jamiroquai and Bass, you played them great! My favorite album is rock dust light star...
I’m the man on the moon, hope I don’t come back to soon, am I the only one to see the light...
Nice playing and cool hat!
Cheers! Thanks for watching
When i was a young dude i drove my crx2 and while driving always played his music , great times.
The car went but the music stayed...
С какой лёгкостью играет! Браво!
Согласен
Stuart Zender has an amazing creativity, and you played him very well!
🙏
Very authentic. You even have the roadkill they wear for hats. lol
Nice to see the Fender P is still the workhorse most used over the years
My favorit bass lines is:
Time won't wait
Don't Give Hate A Chance
Too Young To Die
Starchild
My father (RIP) had a bass that looked just like that one. Gave it away when i was still a kid. I was so bummed. Cool to see it in action. So dope
Excellent! Only disappointed that you didn't do "Mr. Moon" and "Manifest Destiny."
Old school funk/soul bass playing! So timeless!
Nice grove man, even though I clicked hoping for "don't give hate a chance"
I know that one :)
I was hoping for some "Runaway" or "Seven Days In Sunny June", myself.
I was hoping for "Time won't wait".
Phenomenal! Could not have picked a better band to cover!
Thank you 🙏
Those lines from Too Young to Die is killer, love it!
Deeper Underground just blew me away!
👍👍 Thanks
This Space Cowboy is album version.
Stuart Zender didn't play it
He played only 'stoned again' version.
Interesting to listen to those lines played on a precision bass... Sounds killer.
That was awesome. Jamiroquai has great bass lines always fun to listen to and play as well
Smooth and sweet like chocolate milk...
Thank you...I have 37 video's to watch today so I only have enough time for 5 minutes per video...This video worked out great
Whatever happened to Stuart Zender - there's very limited info to be found on him since his parting from Jay Kay over disputes to do with Jamiroquai.
He's off and on pretty active on IG.

Super chill dude. Cheers!
Really great!!, i love Jamiroquai since their first album, love to hear this medley!!. Thanks a lot
Jamiroquai is one of my favorite groups! 😊 I enjoyed the way you played the songs. 😁 Very cool! 😎👍🏽🎶
Thanks 🙏

I actually thought I was listening to the man himself!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Very nice, make me feel so funky. I love Jamiroquai
I've now watched this video 5 times.... and I don't even play bass! Just brilliant!!
That’s groove man ! 👍
Thank you!
Bruh, Why did I think this was Actually JAMIROQUAI?! Well Done😍
Thanks 😊
Almost immediately after starting to listen to this, I got crazy feelings if deja vu. These songs remind me so much of the Persona (3+) OSTs. There has to be some connection.
Because most of Persona 3-4-5 OST and Jamiroquai are Acid Jazz music.
Lmfao that’s why I got so hooked on the persona series!
EXACTLY!! reminded me a lot of the persona 5 ost

Nice one man, great playing! so many great Zender basslines to choose from!
Браво!!!
Great, thanks for this cool musical moment!
Nice! Jamiroquai is funk at it's roots. They tour on little vox combos, low key tone kings.
Too Young To Die is the best
Awesome. I'm very thankful I found your video. :)
AMAZING MR JAMIROQUAI ..JUST GOOD VIBES..
..
Love his unique style of music
Love jamiroquai. Great video man.
Great stuff Idogo. All the groove, and an authentic look too. Cheers

All from Stuart Zender. When he left the band it was no more Jamiroquai. A lot of people are thinking the same.
casibefa
All Saints reunited recently, so maybe Zender will take the cue? (Assuming he and Melanie are still married.)
