"All the right notes in all the wrong ways " that could have came from Miles Davis ! Best comment I have heard for a long time! Great video, I always had difficulty explaining inside/ outside playing, you nailed it.
Brilliant topic! Especially for wannabe-prodigies, sax players and jazz-standard-jukebox players. I hate what they do, they make jazz unlistenable to every ear that's not used to "jazz freedom", to the mainstream ears. But also too many times I don't see the sense of throwing bunch of licks, phrases without paying attention to those two important ideas - context and resolution. Well done Mr. Thank you very much, those things need to be on yt.
What a great teacher, it's hard to explain this stuff and make it understandable to people who are building up to this level still (me). Thanks for showing some new possibilities and concepts. It keeps me growing and avoiding that stale area we all hit from time to time. Even tho I play 4 string I like seeing this on a six string, it makes me think outside the box a little more and expand my limits. Which is the point of it all I suppose. Great video!
Thank you for sharing such an effective strategy for this concept. Definitely the clearest explanation I'm ever seen on this particularly daunting task! *two thumbs up!*
Thank you so much Damian, this is great and valuable lesson!!! I often find myself stuck and running out of vocabulary very soon when soloing... going straight to practising right now following your generous tips!
Damian, great content. When I saw the title of this video come up on youtube I thought of your book the Improvisor's Path which I bought a few weeks ago and am totally digging. Also, the iRealpro is a killer app.
This has really helped me understand this concept so huge thanks!! I'm preferring Genius Jamtracks having used iReal Pro for so long....it's not programmable re chords etc but has a much warmer sound....worth checking out as you can put different rhythms in for each part which has its uses..;-))
Dude! Thanks SO much for this!! Exactly what I needed. I’d always sort of done some of these things; you gave me confidence that I was on the right track and gave me a whole bunch of other strategies. Do part too!! Give up all the “secrets”! LOL
just wondering if you are seeing those arpeggios and patterns or if your ear can hear those and how about the resolution are you trying to hit a certain note or just let your ear resolve those lines
cool man. easy understood. well explained. i love the idea of stacking. like stacking thirds like the 5of a is e; the 5 of e is b. so, can you keep stacking more for tension? like... the 5th of b is f# and the5th of f# is Db? so then refering back to the root chord being A, this Db..... well, thats where creativeness comes in right? cause at sone point, yes, everything works. how fun!!!! thank you for loving music
tl;dr: How you get from A to B is less important than arriving at the right place at the right time. Repetition legitimizes. Make it groove. Repetition legitimizes. Stick the landing.
Jason Strickland pls record yourself and try to take a critical thought about it, those ideas that "sounds to you very good" while playing doesn't necesery are like that when you listen to it
Which iReal Pro Style setting are you using? I can't seem to find the one that sounds as hip. I'm using Version 7.0.1. You said C-7 but I thought I heard your backing track go the F-7 too.
even 16ths. It's my fav! ps - Yeah, I messed up when recording the video and didn't record the backing track so I had to export a loop and it kept going to an F-7 (good ears). I didn't think anybody would catch that. D'OH!
Brah! I learned more from this one video than I have in a YEAR! Thank you!
Damian is a great player and teacher, I often learn something different and new from him.
This has to be one of the best (bass) tutorials I have ever seen out here. Hat's off!

Thanks Damian, massively helpful for an intermediate bassist on a journey later in life!
Awesome insight and direction. Thank you!! Wish I could have tuition like this one on one face to face. Very well articulated.

Thank you! You have a gift of making things easy to take in.
Great tips, thanks Damian, you're an excellent teacher
-One of my favorite bass players!!
just wondering if you are seeing those arpeggios and patterns or if your ear can hear those and how about the resolution are you trying to hit a certain note or just let your ear resolve those lines
Around 9.49 acoustic sounds good to my ears. Great vid.

"Stick the landing" I like that
Damian, you are the best!!
Thanks Damian! I'm gonna work this in.
Brilhant! Thanks for the explanation. Tasty playing by the way.

Very cute little ideas, thank you very much!
Amazing analysis. Thank you so much.
Thank you Damian!
simple and genius, great vid, subscribed
What’s the name of the apps ? Thank you
GREAT video Damian! Can you tell us a little about your bass? I know it's a Skjold, but it is a hollowbody? Sure sounds like it.....
Great lesson. really helpful.. maybe if you could explain in terms of a 4 string bass, it would be dope.
Thank you for the perspective, very good!
Thanks bro for Encouraging to Play-Brave !!! 👍👍
What is the bass guitar he's playing?
this lesson changed my life
Wow! thank you
Me too. Now the doors of perception are open. Thank you Damian.
And my life too... cheers!...
Yeah!! Thanks! That was what I've been looking for!
Hi just curious...is that how jazz works too?
Thank u so much for this lesson!!
Lol! Wow. Look at that monster bass! Love it
Thank you, very nice!
I tend to play outside a lot, most of the time it works, sometimes it doesn't lol

Pretty cool
A question related to iReal... how does one "program" this kind of 2 chord movement?
Hes basically doing lead guitar on the bass..i wanna hear him make it sound good during some new rock hardcore
hello Damian
Genius...
You could at least include the tutor's name, in the information, for people who might not know Damian, right?
do u have a i.g.?
i love your.. all the right notes, but no conviction; all the wrong notes example.....
your teaching style works for me
thank you
after these lesson my date count increased.
The two words to focus on is 'damian erskine'.
GREAT GREAT GREAT
Thank you.
Holy fuck, you just let that cat rrrrrrrright outa tha bag!...M

Skjold Design Guitars
