Awesome! I think this is the only interview I’ve seen focusing on Jacob as an instrumentalist, instead of all the videos focusing on his knowledge of theory or production
Hearing Jacob talk about what he considers to be his limitations is sobering!
Limitations?
@@SeanVedell Yes. His word not mine. Everyone has them.
I haven't been too into his music but I really enjoy his enthusiasm, his approach to learning and repurposing things and how he thinks about music creatively.
I agree. Ive never been a fan of Jacob. He may try to explain things or play things, but to me, it always sounds like a big flex. On the flip side though, i did learn a few things about his practice methods. I admire his enthusiasm... hes just not my thing
@@NevertahnProduction Forgive me for being so direct and this might be me reading into your comment too much - but isn't having loads of fun and maximizing your abilities just perceived as a flex when you are insecure about your own abilities? Or do you stylistically dislike his music subjectively? Obviously he has less than 1% ego, so it's clearly not a flex, especially given that he did it by himself in his room for years before sharing with people like you who might have discouraged him. He only flexes for fun when playing live because the crowd enjoys it and wants it, and even then it's not out of insecurity obviously haha.
@@JJBerthume i just dont like showoffs in general, regardless of their ego
Never afraid to ask someone more skilled than him how to do something new. So simple but so important.
Amazing talent. I love how he collaborates so widely and makes his music to his own liking and not what the world wants for the sake of mass-market popularity.
I really like how he correlates scat singing with the notes on the instrument. Using the very first instrument (our voices) to relate to every other instrument is a very intuitive way to learn an instrument. Melody and harmony are never to be underestimated. If you can sing or whistle it, you can play it. Scott, your peaks and valleys analogy of playing bass still sticks with me every time I play. Every single video you make inspires me to be a better bass player, thank you. 🙏🏻
Shit if I can play what I can sing and whistle, I’m REALLY excited to get better.
Listening to Jacob teaches me a lot about myself. I create by ear and imagination . To have "difference" is a blessing and a curse . Learning to read can take me through other dimensions.
Jacob's intuitive approaches of being able to execute music at a techical level is very clever.
Jacobs concepts and theories and analogies are so out of the world.
For an incredibly accomplished musician such as Jacob to still have the humility to continually ask “how do you do that thing?” says a lot about his approach to music and presumably to life. Total respect.🙏⛄️❄️🇬🇧❄️⛄️🙏
Gordon Ramsay is the same way about cooking. You can go so much further by always trying to learn
I love Jacob while he's talking, his theory is awesome, it serves a lot!!!
Hey Scott! Please interview Paul Bender from Hiatus Kaiyote, he's amazing and deserves more recognition
It's always this mind blowing difference between the ability to play something properly and the inability to play something wrong, which makes me struggle...
But it's this difference, that turns this something into vocabulary or just leaves it behind as an exercise.
Love Jacob! Just an overall great, wholesome dude.
1:54 WHAT!? HOW!? lol
"Technique invents itself where it's necessary" sums up the electric bass and its myriad ways of being played.
I like colliers ideas just so real to himself
It's kinda reassuring to see even such an incredible musician sometimes feels limited by his abilities. Definitely a very interesting interview, I'd say it told me more about Collier than all the other interviews combined 😂
🧡🧡🧡
Ty scott!
I dunno if it would be inspiring, or painful, or both, to see how long it would take Jacob to become proficient in flamenco guitar. Having been struggling to get it really fluid over the last year, I just wonder how quickly someone like him could learn such a nuanced style.
Honestly probably no more than like 2 weeks
all my attention is drawn towards the bagel on the stool
Still want to see a UK TH-camr supergroup with Jacob, Dodie, Charles Berthoud and Mary Spender.
You heard Jacob and Dodie's cover of Here Comes The Sun? That's one of my favorite JC tracks.
Super interesting, -and it all makes total sense! Thanks for this interview 🙏
This is so great, love Jacob so much!
Apart from JC's undoubted ability, its his engaging enthusiasm and passion that does it for me.
Thanks Scott :)
I love my kala mini bass too!
Wonderful as always (Both the video and Jacob)
Such a humble and massive harmonic talent
It’s a beautiful Sunday morning
This guy is super amusing!
Great share, thanx !
Quick, direct and interesting
Good video
Can you play a planetshakers through it all ? Plss I want to learn how to play that 🥺
Transcribe > @1:16
#1 by telling everyone how good he is at music
#2 repeating #1
The guys has perfect pitch. It’s a completely different starting point, if not a total different approach.
the bagel.
Brilliant!
Dragon jammies
Humble aliens!
Thanks for this!
Basically he does what they say to do in school, but on a case by case basis, in the studio, when he feels like it. lol.
Interesting that JC wears AKG K701s . Amazing fellow 🎶 💕 🤩
You didn’t even give him time to finish his bagel Scott
He's gifted, a virtuoso, the 0.01% of the whole population. An average person can practice all his life and will never be a jacob collier when he was 6 y.o.
Nothing resist to 15 hours per day
❤
Tip one: Have perfect pitch
If music was a person.
I'll never get what people find in this guy
me neither tbh ;)
God to humanity: "This is music. Take it as a gift"
Humanity to Jacob: "Oh please stop... We cannot follow!"
cringe
Lose the glove lol
Jacob way of approaching music, composition, technique and learning reminds me a lot of how neuroatypical people work ("gifted" people)
unpopular opinion here but I have yet to hear anything of real practical value come from this guy. I have never been able to sit through anything he has ever done. It's fair to say maybe I don't understand it and it's my loss, but the majority of people in this world know nothing about music and they can still enjoy it when it's good. I am all for avant garde, but his stuff has always come across to me as "look what I can do because I can". what good is all the musical talent in the world if you haven't put out something that sits up there with the greats? I wish I COULD get it, I feel like I AM missing out the way people talk about this guy, and I am quite happy with my own musical journey and yes I do know my theory, so if you are gonna suggest I am just jealous don't waste your time. For me it just comes nowhere near the pedestal people put him on.
I would suggest listening to Moon river. He's better known for his work in music theory and microtones etc. If your looking for his work on bass listen to All Night Long.
I like him as a musician but don't like his music all that much... not everything is for everyone 🙂
I get that…not everyone is a theory nut, and has perfect pitch. And in a lot of these interviews it’s just like “ yeah I just sang it out then I knew how to do it and became a bass player” Hahahahaha. Definitely a bright guy, but he clearly has the ability to learn differently then most people. Well I’d say that’s true for everyone, each person learns differently so sometimes listening to the way Jacob learns is confusing, but I think there are moments that have it’s value.
@@stephenshoihet2590 I completely understand bro. I'm one of those weirdos that likes pretty much everything I show my friends Jacob's stuff and they're always asking why in the world I listen to it.
@@piercejenkins13 I can understand jacob collier as a bass singer the bass guitar or any instrument has a vocal language to it.
Who is he?
This dude is unquestionably a sea of knowledge…1FT deep…
Cheeseball.
uagh there is no person where musical knowledge and unlikeability are so close together. cant stand this guy.
I never heard of him.
@Komitet I’ll pass.
@@savedbyzero8340 what was the point of these comments
@@randomname191 you tell me. All I said I never heard of him and I’m not interested in listening to his music.
@@savedbyzero8340 then why say anything?
@@randomname191
He’s tryna take the piss!
But why be bothered anyway?
Jacob Collier has incredible talent, probably not made for this earth. But somehow I can't help find him unlikeable. Sort of like a dentist. You know they are there to do good. But you just don't like um.
It's because you don't brush your teeth.
I love his approach to music, but I get bored of his music quickly. I'm always just looking for the brilliant details and concepts and then I realize that the songs as a whole are not really creative on a personal level compared to other artists. I'm more interested in which emotions music triggers than which spoon hits the plate.
@@7riXter I’d like to see some music from him where he tries to embody a different spectrum of human emotion like intense grief or hatred, that would be amusing
@@elijahgavin6706 hell yeah... griiiiiiiief... letz have a jacob-ihsahn collab 🤣 th-cam.com/video/toWl8-diVpo/w-d-xo.html
