Not to mention that's a fretless and he gets such a diverse set of tones out of it. Slap, pop and those creamy fretless notes. Never seen anyone quite like him. Awesome talent.
Ryan is one of my favorite bass players. The whole band is incredible. Imagine them playing outside on the street with people walking around from bar to bar like at Mardi gras. Everyone can get into it.
the riff at 2:57 sounds so much like primus and I absolutely love it, this band blends my favorite elements of bands like Rush and Primus together and adds so much melody, and it's amazing to hear ryan play bass
This has got more of a progressive vibe while Primus is so weird and far-out that it's safe to say they have their own style, but I can definitely see the similarities, especially with the amazing basslines.
@@GSVRemix Yeah, compositionally it's really different. But more just the overall sound and vibe. I always thought of Mudvayne as a really heavy version of Primus, so this makes a lot of sense haha
Great to see Ryan playing to his peak ability. A true legend and visionary innovator. Mudvayne would have been nothing without him. His talent deserves to be heard.
The bass player gave me goosebumps back when I was a school kid and made me pick up an instrument. Now I'm a gigging musician and living my life doing what I love to do.
Ohmigod... I'm a bass player/vocalist since the early 80s. And I love Mudvayne. I'm now 50, and retired my bass to my 19 son, but still sing. I'm also a huge prog rock freak... Geddy Lee, Billy Sheehan, John Myung, etc... My 19 yo son just today showed this to me. I never knew. Holy crap. Fan freak level waaaaaaaay up.
agree 100% Yoshiki G and im loving the new band from Greg and Matt as well called Audiotopsy its got a Mudvayne meets the Deftones feel to it and they also recruited the frontman from Skrape great sounding band in my book
This is some legendary level style video game music. Ryan's playing is almost unmatchable truly amazing I've been a fan of his for 15 years and it's so refreshing to see him still out there having fun. I never woulda found this if I wasn't explaining to someone what a good bass player looked like
Music is an intimate bond created from giving yourself over to you instrument, and furthermore letting it not take control of you, but rather letting it guide your expressiveness and creativity, so it can create for you something wonderful. Sharing this kind of bond with like minded people is about the most beautiful thing you can do with your life in my opinion. Music is a magic anyone can obtain with enough effort, and it becomes downright profound when you use this magic with others.
Ive known Mitch for 25 years now. Was the greatest drummer then, still is, and always will be. He showed me stuff I never imagined, in life and music. One of the greatest people Earth has ever had.
Ryan Martinie is one of my favourite bassists of all time alongside Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and a few others. I'm so happy that we get to hear every note he plays in Soften the Glare. I love Mudvayne, but Ryan's incredible bass playing on Mudvayne often gets squashed between the wall-of-sound guitar mix and kick drums. Here, it's all crystal clear in all of its glory. The rest of the band is amazing too. Long live Soften the Glare! ❤
I came here because of "Brr Brr Deng", and I REALLY like this. Shades of Zappa, Holdsworth, etc in the music. Fantastic bass lines and great interplay between the musicians.
My dad actually met Ryan when he was with Mudvayne. He said it was the best thing that's ever happened to him. Chad was a dick, but Ryan actually wanted to hang out with my dad. And so, my dad actually quit playing the bass when he heard Mudvayne, cause Ryan is the mother fuckin best bass player in the world, and Ryan was so distraught! He was like, "No! I didn't want you to quit! That wasn't my intention!" and my dad was like, "After I heard you play, I knew I couldn't be up to par with you. You're so talented and amazing." Mortal of the story, my dad is a dumbass for quitting playing the bass cause he thought he was horrible compared to Ryan. (Which he really wasn't) But yes, he met Ryan and I really want to meet him one of these days. Also, he's the one who gave me the link to this video when it first came out.
I’m a simple man. When I see Ryan Martinie playing fretted Bass, getting a fretless sound in board shorts and flip flops in the middle of nowhere in a jazz fusion outfit I’ve never heard of, playing in odd time signatures, I hit the like button.
This song is like many others, a timeless piece of art. They got a so unique sound, amazing. Wish them only the best for the future. Take care and keep the groove. Thanks for sharin.
He doesn't use distortion or effects pedals. It all done through his tuning, strings, amp etc. and his playing style. (per an interview he did) This video is a good example of his transitional sounds. th-cam.com/video/jpeeH0UuYo4/w-d-xo.html
Blacksheep He's NOT a purist, by the way. A purist would be opposed to such things being used by anyone, not just themself. "I like the natural approach to playing, and I'm not exactly - I'm not a purist, I mean, go for it. If you like synth bass, octave pedals and stuff, then utilize it. I'm not against any of that stuff, but I do like to find those things with my hands." -excerpt from his wiki page. TH-cam doesn't like links, but I'm sure you can find it, or the original interview. :)
That was amazing. Wish I had known about this years ago. I'm reminded of the "Attention Deficit" collaboration between Micheal Manring, Alex Skolnick, and Tim Alexander.
Endo Cannabinoid how sure are you? because if you look real closely to where he puts his fingers and the warm tone of the bass I am 90% sure it's a fretless with white position markers
thankful I got to see this trio live in person - Ryan was even more of a powerhouse to see live - and was a totally humble dude at the little club they performed at locally here in West By God - I will forever be grateful I got to see this absolute monster of bass live!
His sound is so signature .. You can always tell its him playing No matter what bass he plays.. He is at one with that instrument A true legend in the bass world ..
Grandioso ✌️Absolutely great guys!!!! This is what I call real music!! "Just 3 great musicians making their own thing!!! I really like the way you rock!!!!! Amazing and free, fresh. Can't get any better than this!!!! 👏👏👏👏🎸🎼🎶✌️✌️💯Percent awesomeness!!!! 🙏🙏🎸🎶☯️
@@mgreenyuk the sky isn't always blue though. Sunsets make it purple/pink sometimes during tornados it's green. Ryan is always underappreciated. Except by fans of mudvayne or other bass players
What I like most about this is knowing all the cephalopods are marching and jamming out to this
How can they not march?
@@houseofsolomon2440just play a song in an odd meter and they’ll all trip what with their eight legs and whatnot
@@tshred666 100%
The first time that the algorithm did something right in 2020
too bad its 2 years ago
Im suprise too..first i watch Primus,Korn and later with this
Agreed! This band deserves much study!
Same here
Same here but in 2021
Okay Ryan has to be one of the most underrated bassists out there like seriously.
Ryan is easily my favorite bassist of all time. His style is so unique, theres no mistaking him.
He's alright
He's on par with Les and Geddy for me, all 3 of them are gods of the low tone. I never factor in Jaco... he was inhuman.
Most certainly
Not to mention that's a fretless and he gets such a diverse set of tones out of it. Slap, pop and those creamy fretless notes. Never seen anyone quite like him. Awesome talent.
I cannot believe I'm just coming across this now. Absolutely fantastic
Same
Agreed, 12 days after you lol.
Me too this is great!
Yeah man..I'm late to this party as well...but better late than never!!! This guys gonna make me go out and get a Warwick!!!
Same. 4 months after you 🤦♀️
How can the rest of mudvayne give up on this much talent is beyond me
Matt doesn't really care about drumming anymore, and Greg and Chad have issues with each other. So yeah.
Except Matt has a band and is the drummer for it and scheduled for a second release this year.
ego
And even better Ryan seems like such a nice and lovable person, he's very humble.
Chad probably makes more money in that turd band Hellyeah.
Ryan is one of my favorite bass players. The whole band is incredible. Imagine them playing outside on the street with people walking around from bar to bar like at Mardi gras. Everyone can get into it.
Didn't know this existed give me minute to digest
Bon, the happiest guitarist, ever! Why's he so happy? He gets to play with Ryan Martinie.
jonesy97 covets drummer is the happiest lmaoo
I guess he IS feeling happy now
Happy?
@@cam564 i agree, ive seen them a few times, cheerful lad he is.
1:08 Probably the most pleasing bassline to my ears I've heard in a long time
Are you a jaco pastorius fan?
Thank you same it’s fucking amazing
Listen to Cynic
gotten to hear*
One of the best Bassist players of todays music.
dang did tosin die ! :(
Isnt that pnut from 311?
Very underrated. Shadowed under mudvayne imo this is the best channel for Ryan's talents.
I would say one of the best ever.
To much of everything
the riff at 2:57 sounds so much like primus and I absolutely love it, this band blends my favorite elements of bands like Rush and Primus together and adds so much melody, and it's amazing to hear ryan play bass
I could see Primus, it made me think of Infectious Grooves
You should check out Cynic if you like this style of bass playing
It's like if Primus just did the crazy parts.
It's like reverse primus
isnt that still primus?
This has got more of a progressive vibe while Primus is so weird and far-out that it's safe to say they have their own style, but I can definitely see the similarities, especially with the amazing basslines.
I was totally thinking primus when I heard this. Not mudvaynish at all.
@@GSVRemix Yeah, compositionally it's really different.
But more just the overall sound and vibe.
I always thought of Mudvayne as a really heavy version of Primus, so this makes a lot of sense haha
I never realized that when a cephalopod started to march it would sound so good and blow my mind
"I wonder what the bassist from Mudvayne is up to these days, he was amazing..." Wow.
Great to see Ryan playing to his peak ability. A true legend and visionary innovator. Mudvayne would have been nothing without him. His talent deserves to be heard.
Ryan + Fretless + 5 String + Hawaii Shorts + Genre Fusion + :D
You forgot to mention the flip flops!!
The bass is fretted.
It is not fretted. Those are just lines.
Randy Lott You guys have the eyes of eagles!
It's hard to tell by just looking. Those lines are shiny too! The sound is the giveaway. It has a "mwah" sound. Sick playing, though!
The smiles on their faces are one of the greatest things I've ever seen.
YESSSSSSSS! So much agreed. It's contagious!
Well... This is best misclick of my life.
Djole MIljkovic weird same
Me too.
Same.
Yep, I'm with ya
dude its soooo good !!!
Strange how this drifts between exciting and relaxing. Passive Aggression?
would be great music for a DOOM mod level
Reminds me of how SOAD flips from heavy to melodic on a dime
Welcome to prog rock
hahahah oh shit this song actually would be great on DOOM
Man Ryan really is putting that fretless thumb to work. Some of the sounds he gets from the thing are just bananas. I love it.
The bass player gave me goosebumps back when I was a school kid and made me pick up an instrument. Now I'm a gigging musician and living my life doing what I love to do.
I thoroughly enjoy watching Ryan play. He has so much joy out of playing and it's goddamn inspiring.
Neomorphinity silent hill profile pic. Love it!
Neomorphinity ikr? The video of his angle in Dig is one of my all time favorites bc of his facial expressions and movements
Wonderful talent, each of them. Mitch Hull is a fantastic drummer.
The prog is strong with this one
definitely with a touch of prog..fusion,funk,jazz....what else could you ask for
Jane Doe ❤️
😂
Prog? More like fusion.
Nice jane doe tribute

Ryan has his own voice through bass, it's insane. You can hear him clearly on any project he's worked on.
Martinie knows his instrument, it's refreshing to hear bass take the lead.
JaZzVayNe
Mudjazz
@@jaredmk4897 HAHAHAHA
sounds more like funkvayne to me
Not jazz at all. More like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Primus.
Who else came here for Ryan?
A god in his field.
Moi!
Me. He's just awesome. And humble about his ability, which makes him even better
@phinhowe9769 - The whole band is incredible !
We all did. We all did.
Its so nice to see Martinie's new material. Hes one of my favorite bassist
This is unbelievable exquisite....
This song was more thought provoking than the entire discography of hellyea
Inhalin1514 id be surprised if hellyeahs discography didnt cause any other thought than "please kill me"
The sound of a cow fart run through autotune is more thought provoking than anything Hellyeah has ever put out.
agree 100% Yoshiki G and im loving the new band from Greg and Matt as well called Audiotopsy its got a Mudvayne meets the Deftones feel to it and they also recruited the frontman from Skrape great sounding band in my book
agree. Hellyeah was a joke. just a money-making avenue to get bucks off dumbass biker dudes and frat boys.
Omg hell nah (lol) was fucking awful! Ryan's bass playing is so good, this track is really cool also.
I had no idea Ryan had another band. Jesus Christ, this makes my damn day.
That fretless melody was amazing! The chord progressions being outlined is super unique. Awesome!
Really like the Primus part at 2:55
This is some legendary level style video game music. Ryan's playing is almost unmatchable truly amazing I've been a fan of his for 15 years and it's so refreshing to see him still out there having fun. I never woulda found this if I wasn't explaining to someone what a good bass player looked like
Ryan has such a distinctive Bass sound and style. One of the best Metal Bassists of the past 20 years for sure!
King Crimson meets Alan Holdsworth meets Jaco meets Primus. Awesome.
Chilli Peppers meets Brand X.
.....with a dashing of John Scofield.
eeeasy there bud. KG? Yeah, defintely Primus? Certainly in the bass, Jaco? Sure, I can see that, Allan Holdsworth? Not so much
Rush too
Meets Mudvayne
this is so chill yet so complex at the same time, love this band
This is bad ass. Bass player will melt your face right off.
smackroscoe it’s Ryan martinie formerly of the metal band Mudvayne
i knew i recognized him lol, this is awesome
Wonderful !!! Suuuuuupergroove ! big hug from Brasil !
Full on jazz fusion. Love it. I always new Martinie was a jazz player at heart.
Ryan is just so fun and interesting to both watch and listen!

Ryan has always been one of the best bass players man, wow. He never fails to impress!
As a Marine Biologist and Metalhead. I approve of this
You might like March of the Crabs by Anvil.
This song has been stuck in my head for the past week, love it.
This is what a rock/metal music video should be, the band playing and enjoying their music. And Ryan is a monster on the bass, beautiful jazzy parts.
They play in sync so fn well
Man this sounds so epic. Ryan is a beast. they all did super great

And then everyone clapped.
Strange, I heard from people who met chad that he is a nice guy.
Trying to be 'better than' anyone but yourself leads to nowhere.
Sucks that Chad was a dick. I met him when I was 16 and he was pretty cool.
I'm not sure he's as underrated as he is underappreciated. #RyanMartinieForEmperor
Fact I never heard anyone ever downplay his ability to play
I’m a simple man. When I see Ryan Martinie playing fretted Bass, getting a fretless sound in board shorts and flip flops in the middle of nowhere in a jazz fusion outfit I’ve never heard of, playing in odd time signatures, I hit the like button.
Fretted? Take a closer look.
That there is a fretless bass
I see no frets.
So glad I gave this a second listen. Wow! That fretless bass = pure Claypool vibes! Brilliant stuff Ryknow x
holy fuck..a guitarist that actually challenges Ryan. This is SOOoooOOO GOOd!!!
I saw Mitch Hull and Soften The Glare a few months back....They are all Monsters!!..Mitch is an incredible drummer...
good guy tah boot!
this song is beautiful and strange ;) just amazing!
Was that a reference? Hahaha
@@duartevgc2114 better believe it. heh.
I can see what you did there
love this band. Great Video, dawn and afternoon my favourite times.
This song is like many others, a timeless piece of art.

Wish them only the best for the future.
Take care and keep the groove.
Thanks for sharin.
Oooops nice outdoor session...reminds me of Primus...real solid crafty musicianship...good ear candy...go on guys 👍 👍 💪
Incredible bassist!!!!!
I played in a cover band with Ryan in high school, you should have heard him singing Led Zeppelin while playing bass.
I think that's why most people are here lol
@@adelineinactivity Not to discreddit the other guys, I did come here because Ryan was here.
ryan is love, ryan is life :) haha love this guy. my all time favorite bassplayer!
Dig the natural video setting. Somehow works very well
Some of the most expressive and interesting playing I've seen in a while.
Happy I found this.
Monstrous, crunchy!!! Love it!!!
I love when you can clearly hear the bass in a song. The bass makes or breaks the band!
1:07 Man you made that bass guitar “Sing” those were some of the most tastiestbass licks I’ve ever heard
Wow!! This is some amazing stuff. Beyond impressed
Holy Shit... Why did I not know about Ryan in this band.. and he's finally on a fretless Warwick!!?? Thanks for the Upload!
This is killer man.. this is right up Ryan's alley.. great song..
I love that guitar solo at 2:56 reminds me a bit of some old school Bireli Lagrene
Had to watch this a 6 times and still can't get enough
Great sound guys!!
My opinion is your looking and listening to the best bassist on the planet. His work is amazing and his style is all his own.
This is absolutely wonderful
Love Ryan's playing I wish he would have tried getting back in the public's eye sooner, in my opinion he has to be one of the greatest bass players.
Good GOD, gentlemen! If you ever want a singer to this greatness...keep the hell in touch!
Ryan, the new record is amazing. Sick shorts too.
Jonny Davy love Ryan, but the shorts are awful lol
Mitch Hall is the drummer, known him for few yrs. Met Ryan and the guitarist when they were first coming together to start Soften the Glare.
awesome stuff you guys are great.
Whoa this came up randomly in my feed just now. This is great!
I was really hoping this would be a tune about the endangered Appalachian Mud Squid.
maybe it is
How on earth is this not in any public forum whatsoever. This is exceptional... This is Brilliant!
Can we do a "dig" funk jazz cover??? Would be epic...
He doesn't use distortion or effects pedals. It all done through his tuning, strings, amp etc. and his playing style. (per an interview he did)
This video is a good example of his transitional sounds.

Do you see any pedals on Ryan's rig?... nope. Dumbass. He is a purist by the way
please...

I've seen this like 20 times and it keeps coming back as a suggestion.
I came from the "Ryans Angle Mudvayne Dig" video to "Ryans Seinfeld Intro" wtf
Me too !
That was amazing. Wish I had known about this years ago.
I'm reminded of the "Attention Deficit" collaboration between Micheal Manring, Alex Skolnick, and Tim Alexander.
1:08 best part imo
This tune is just so obnoxiously excellent and awesome in every way!
Please play more of that fretless it sounds like jesus whispering sweet nothings in my ear
Dexter J That's a fretted Warwick, not fretless.
Endo Cannabinoid how sure are you? because if you look real closely to where he puts his fingers and the warm tone of the bass I am 90% sure it's a fretless with white position markers
As a pro-level bassist of over half my life, I can attest to the fact that he IS indeed playing a fretless!!
Jay Hernandez its pretty obvious from the tone alone. especially when one plays a fretless themselves, nothing sexier sounding than a fretless wick
its the custom fretless warwick made for him it just has fret inlays for effect, and yeah the tone itself gives it away
thankful I got to see this trio live in person - Ryan was even more of a powerhouse to see live - and was a totally humble dude at the little club they performed at locally here in West By God - I will forever be grateful I got to see this absolute monster of bass live!
