@Punch Down King Sat 77 said _one_ of the best, which is certainly a fair assessment. Wojtek has the cleanest slap technique I've ever seen, and when you combine that with his speed and pocket, it's easy to say he's one of the best technicians. Whether one likes his _style_ is, of course, just a matter of opinion.
Bass player myself for 15 years, this is one of the best I've ever seen. I slap the bass when I play it, but this man is something else. Would give him a bit of £ if I ever saw him play in person.
Got the lyrics for you guys: pikitapiktipikitapikapiktikadda breewo bom ba ba gab dab ba dooeeey squeeeeeeeee pikitapikitapikitabom ba taaang diiggiladig bom ba dow
I was impressed with the skill demonstrated here, but was sure I could do what this man did too, with just a little practice. After watching this a couple of times, it really wasn't as hard as it seemed. I was soon able to watch this while standing and holding my beer EXACTLY like the guy watching on the right. Sadly, a camera malfunction prevented video proof of my success, but the satisfaction is there.
The messed up thing about Wojtek is that if he grew up in America or England he probably would be considered one of, if not the most skilled electric bassist ever.
well, show some initiative and consider him one of the best despite his geographic shortcomings. maybe a couple other idiots will notice and follow suit.
a musician like that would be doing the same thing if he were ridiculously wealthy or completely destitute. i don't think they even have a choice in the matter. plus he plays bass guitar so, it's instinctual for him to cope with being overlooked.
@@lovelyman7880 ah okay - Well at 6 seconds this dark haired person appears out of nowhere at the perfect time for this solo. And at 25 seconds this guy just walks away even though this great solo was still happening. It wasn't a joke as such but i still found it amusing.
That was absolutely jaw dropping. The first time I’ve heard someone making the electric bass rejoice in expressing its heart and soul with such energy. Brilliant!
@@brugges that doesn't mean it doesn't feel good tho yeah he sees how he can improve but you can tell from how much he's absolutely feeling himself during that solo that it feels absolutely insane to do what he's doing
I knew a bass player that had to change strings when his house band took a break. Acid sweat killed the tone, couldn't even pickup with a tuner after a few hrs of play time.
Saying: If you think, you're the best at something, remember that there is always some asian guy better than you Some Polish guy with bass guitar: _Hold my beer_
This solo never ceases to delight and impress me, when Wojtek plays, it sometimes sounds like he has an automatic rifle in his hands. A genius at work.
An actual video that is worth watching in my recommendations, good job youtube, i forgive you for that breast feeding tuturial video last time in my recommendation. And yes i watched it, sorry.
Holy crap! I feel like he threw my brain in a blender and made a smoothy. That is the most amazing bass work I have ever heard in my 55 years of playing

Best bassist in the world, period. This guy is on a whole other level. He can play any style too, not just slap. Victor Wooten is a beast as well. Woj is flibbin insane!
@@s1iznc1d34 Lol, that is the most meaningless load of nonsense I've ever heard. Playing a 6 string is no harder than a 4 string, it's simply a matter of what you like to play and what you need. Just like that "JaCo oNlY nEeDeD fOuR sTrInGs..." twaddle. xD
@@Khazandar obviously it's harder. Especially muting the strings if you haven't figured that out yet. The Bass already covers a pretty good range of notes with 4 strings and going above and beyond that will probably ruin the mix you're playing in. For solos or very specific applications 5 and even 6 strings can be useful but unless you want to play a melody your 4 string is going to be more than enough. In a musical context it's way better to work with less notes than with more. You can easily complicate stuff by adding extra notes. You should much rather concentrate on rythm, attack and such details instead of trying to add more notes. That's why 4 string players that mastered those 4 strings are way better than someone who plays a 6 string and doesn't actually know yet what to do with the extra two. Besides with a 5 string for example you really only add 5 lower notes. Might aswell play in a higher octave or tune lower
@@russianbear6384 and what’s your point. Are you assuming because I used the word Twin that they must sound the same. Is it not possible to be a twin with completely different sounds yet both be equally talented. Apparently not. I stand by what I said
@@russianbear6384 none taken at all. I will be honest. I may have been a little rude in my reply to you. So I as well hope you know I also did not mean any disrespect. I just so love music. I love talented musicians. But I do seem to use geddy as he is one of my favorite. So anytime I hear a bassist is always seem to use Geddy lee when commenting on another bassist. My point is. If I say your a twin. All that means is I think he’s as good as the greatest bassist ever (imo) geddy lee. And yes. They both have very different styles. You take care. Thanks for the reply.
Wow, that was so good. One of those players where the instrument is an extension of themselves holding no restriction whatsoever to the insane creativity upstairs.
What I adore most that is a real solo, not a just bunch of slap licks / showing some sofisticated or ultra fast techniques. There's a plot behind it, there is movement according to it, so it is much more interesting to follow that flow. And the ending is breathtaking.
