Not YOUR mama. I meant the song! 😅

The reason I hit the like! 😂
lol l ĺ😊ĺĺl
as soon as you said it, honest to God, I went for the Subscribe button and then I realized I actually already subscribed recently, but I still haven't took a deep dive into your content. Thanks for the amazing video!
@@mladenmandaric6688 thank you for watching, and subscribing!
but my mama did! 🤣
Funk is where bass really shines.
As a guitarist who also plays bass, and is learning to play bass like a bass, not just a lower register guitar, these videos are great.
I’m fighting the same fight - there’s hope for us with people like Rich sharing such great nuggets!
Like a bass. 🎣
Ha, that’s exactly what I’m going through
@@blessedbygaia6862 I'm a bass player also playing guitar. Using a bassist foundation, cool unordinary stuff came out of the guitar, then I noticed myself transferring guitar stuff back to the bass... cross pollenation is cool.
I don't use a guitar pick, nor any fingerstyle guit technique. I use Claypool's technique. Try that man.
Same!!!
The funkier, the better. Always love how accessible these concepts can be.
Thank you so much for watching!
Never inaccessible, only how much style can you give it ?.
Sometimes you just go "oh is that all they're doing"
I've had heaps of those moments learning the bass.
My mama did use that scale during her time at College of the Arts. Most of the time during third period, classical guitar theory.
SERIOUSLY!!! Also, I love your videos your articulate teaching style show us your grace and patience that's one of the great bass players out there today.
That's very kind of you to say. Thank you so much, and thanks for watching!
Got to agree with that. And add a blessed.
yo mama!
You are not only a great musician, but, you are also a great teacher!! Many thanks !
VIBES!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Also, good to know this 👉🏿 5:51
It works! You look at me with that stank face almost every time! LOL!
I don’t even play the bass & I love the use of this mode
I was trained by George Ortiz when I was 19. I'm 58 and still using the Dorian mode to create awesome lines. Seeing you for the first time today and you're teaching the Dorian scale just blew my mind. I love it. I'm now a fan of yours and I'm checking out your other videos
Love the smile on your face when you play that lick, it is funky! Thanks Rich, I really appreciate your approach to music and teaching.
True, the funky grin! 😊
Spot on! As a bass player since the '80s, I have gotten a LOT of mileage out of the Dorian. Also, your phrasing is impeccable.
man thank you, new favorite bass channel
Oh wow! Thank you so much, Claire. 🙏🏾🙂
I knew that The Funkiest Note in the World was going to be featured when I saw this come up. I like how you tied things together with this one Rich, you're an outstanding instructor.
Wow thats just about the greatest tip i've ever come across. Thank you!!
The light in your eyes and smile when you say Funk, it's priceless.
I really love your playing and how you make a bass sound.
That's very kind of you to say. Thank you so much!
Yes my favorite mode of all time!
Your bass tone is FIRE!!
Hey, Bro!! I'm checking you out again. 😊😊😊
And all in one spot, literally, not too much movement, yet FUNKY. I recall Chuck Rainey saying similar; "There's lots of notes under one hand placing".
Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤
Thanks, just for being alive! I'm building on dorian RIGHT NOW BABY!!! .....AND the magic? I'm a keys guy. Anybody with a good sense of swing at 30% or 60% can play a funky af D, on only the whites!!!! ....but I beg all of you.... dig down into those other keys, they make use of the black keys! ❤
Feeeeling foooonky now. I’m in!
You're not only a great player, but also a GREAT teacher!
This guys explanations are clear and concise even for someone with very poor music theory knowledge such as myself.
the natural minor shows up a lot in heavy metal and hard rock, like the song "little sister" by queens of the stone age. I only mention that song because i was learning it earlier today and they utilize this "b6 - 5 - b3" lick as a lead in to the main verse riff. using that minor 6. Love the dorian too, and your tone is amazing. Great video 👍
This is a great lesson. The 6th is massive. You're touch and tone are great, I'm subscribed just to listen.
Thank you so much, Marc. That means a lot.
I can be found at youtube "awesome 5/8 groove". This is a great theory lesson. Thank u very much!!!
As a piano player, you know I can't play bass, so this is helpful, so thanks for that. I'll be thinking about this when I'm recording my next song, so thank you.
That make me want to learn bass...that stuff is very familiar to me James Brown/ Scofield/RnB/ my local Older church musicians ....its like sunshine....always glad to see it.
Louis Johnson....
I only play drums. Musician family
enjoy your manner of teaching, will look for more of your videos
The phonk is off the charts.
I play trombone but it easy to translate. I love thay fonk and live to hold baselines. Glad i found this channel
Rich Brown is fantastic😊
I really like how you break it down for everyone, from Seasoned musicians to beginners.
Great video!
As a beginner this makes no sense to me and I dont get what I'm missing
Digressing; your right hand thumb at the first knuckle from the end allows the end of your thumb to bend back 90 deg. Mine does that on both hands and I often wondered if it made it harder for me to learn guitar. I'm learning bass now and am used to it, I have a long reach due to my height and being in proportion (everywhere 😊) so probably should have started with bass. Loving your instruction, your passion for even the sound of a scale is infectious, and it's like you are with me in my computer room just talking to me. Then you address everyone out there and break the illusion. But, you deserve more people subscribing to your music room. Maybe not enough OMGs or slapping something.
How you describe how to play notes with telling us what fret our finger needs to be on is what really clicks in my brain! Thanks for sharing
first video I've seen of yours Rich. This is the kind of bass content I've been looking for and resonate with! Thanks for explaining this
I'm here for that bass lick in the intro. Kills me every time.
Timbre murcho desse BAIXO....
I have held a base in my hand for three practice sessions of 30 minutes and I just learned more than I ever thought I could
Bruh I literally just let this play on repeat for like 30 mins 😭🔥 LOCKED!
There's some buddha nature in you, Rich, and I appreciate it.
Funk is located between the 6th and the flat7. Skank is having a minor third
Your clips are Gold. Thank you Mr. Brown
Wow! you just blew my mind.
7:39 Man, that is funky. ( Aahhhhh. I've always been partial to the funk.)
Impressive. And very cool. Thank you Rich!
Sounds like some Collins right there.👌🏾
Great lesson, and you have really nice light in your studio man.
Man, you sure know that fretboard!
You nailed it once again, as always, Rich! Beauty (and serious funk!) in simplicity!!
Love your teaching style. You break things down so well why discussing complex stuff. Thanks!
Love that bass line. Your tone is killer too, thank you.
"the funkiest note in the world" - how could I not subscribe??? ✌️
Great lesson! Very engaging, and I really like that you spell it out so thoroughly. It makes it easy to play around and understand the ideas.
Again after so many years of playing I love the things i am. learning here it's the what fors from you Thank You so much!!
See, this is why I love the Brown'stone.
RIch I love ya mate! I You have been a godsend to my bass playing. From a fan in Australia.
Any scale, funky, bro. It's all about da playah. You know this. Dorian is just harmonic minor.
Subscribed, I'm someone who does it all, so I need to up my bass playing. I have to say you've got a beautiful voice as well, I could fall asleep to it.
My first encounter with this channel, and I'm subscribing with gladness. Great video. Lots of stuff to digest and assimilate.
Ive been learning bass for a little less than a year, its still really tough but I am excited to continue trying! Your videos help so much, thank you you definitely got me to subscribe!
Thank you Rich. You’re a great teacher.
Great vid Rich! Your videos are so concise and always eerily adjacent to something I want to learn more about. Started noodling in Dorian on my own last month (accidentally played that major sixth while trying reggae) and this gives me so many more ideas. Got a big grin out of seeing you play that intro theme in there too.
Beautiful and thanks for sharing
You said Prince and i was like hmm. Then you started playing and i heard The Rainbow Children. Your good
I appreciate your teachings. I look forward to catching more of your videos.
Bro. You are an excellent teacher. Very articulate explanation of the Dorian scale. I ran to grab my bass and learn/practice the master melodic moves.
Just discovered your channel, just in time for my bass to arrived next week. Looking forward to watching some of your vids. TY 👍
Thanks for sharing this Rich, so funky!
Thnx Rich from a Detroit kid
thats a revelation, thank you
Thank you man! You made me rethink my groovin! Opened some new area after years of rusty bumpy ride.
I love that. Thank you very much.
This is very useful and sounds awesome. Thanks.
Great video, to the point, explained in a super easy way! Keep groovin! ❤
Superb. Lucid teaching is a gift of the gods, and you have it. Many thanks for sharing.
This was one of the most helpful videos ive encontered. thank you
Dude, your playing and tone are both so smooth.
I've been watching You Tube videos for a while mostly on Latin style drumming. This is really something new, Rich Brown gives you an in-depth explanation of these important scales, and I'm a drummer !
Thanks for sharing much appreciated
Liverpool UK 🇬🇧
Love your channel. You knowledge is awesome and explanation of theory is palatable and easy to understand. Many blessings and appreciate you sharing that knowledge.
I’m sold!
My man! I am a beginner by any stretch and just found you. HALLELUJIA! Thank you so much for this channel and this particular lesson - your description, demos and connecting of the dots between Scholfield, Prince and Paladino was impeccable. I love your simple yet straight-forward approach to both playing and teaching. SO INCLUSIVE! Seriously, your embracing and emphasis of the Dorian scale emphasizes it in such a palatable way that makes it easy to consume, work with and develop. Well done! Such an amazingly impactful lesson and thank you again SO MUCH!!!
Peace & love
Thanks for sharing!
Great lesson, thank you!
Rich I have recently discovered your lessons. Thank you very much. Much is refresher for me but your grooves are awesome. Thanks.
I knew it had to be the natural 6th when I saw the video title. it's just the funkiest sound one can achieve
Thanks for the lessons Rich, God bless ya brother🤙
This is so useful for me! Appreciate you and your great content.
Thanks for this, sir!
Nice source. Dig this man.
Love the applications, and the funkiness of your bassline where you hammer on from F# to G was tremendous! Subscribed.
love these lessons Rich thanks!!! i am learning a lot from you Sir.
Thanks!
excellent instruction thank you
Great video! Very accessible, and excellent welcoming vibe.
Well presented sir. I use this scale - I love it as harmonically it opens up so much options and variations.
I really enjoy the lessons that get me into the phonk. Peace and love.
Beautiful
Thanks Rich. Great approach to your explanation. All but holding our hands in position. Cheers
Love it!
Rich , I've never come across your channel before, but as a bassist myself, the tone of that Jazz in the opening has totally pulled me in! Subbed for more.😊👍
EDIT: Also wanted to say that your bass part at 7:38 is also very reminiscent of the bassline to Funky Broadway, as played by Tommy Cogbill. Its a choice of notes that is almost pulling a country influence over into funky music. Love it!
