  • @timetrack_music
    @timetrack_music 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much! I’ve been watching your videos. The first few videos I’ve watched didn’t have the ‘slowing down without explanation’ part, and I found that part extremely helpful for myself. So thank you for taking that advice and adding that part. It’s a great composition to say the least. Thank you again!

    After hearing this masterpiece, I build up a new view on Funk. With the help of the video, i taught myself how to play it and it just so amazing. I appreciate all the hard work and Love that was put into this and it really is one of the best Funk composition i have heard so far. I am waiting impatiently for new compositions and keep up the amazing work!!!

  • @wordofmo

    Jonathon, I'm glad to see you're aging well. Awesome post. I love this piece. It has a lot more motion than some other funk pieces that are a bit more repetitive.

    I remember learning your creazy funk riffs you had posted almost ten years ago from now, I was 12, still trying to perfect them
    Your lines inspired me so much since then, defo an inspiration 4 my career
    Keep it up !

  • @jimlawton4184

    The vertical view of the piano it reminds me of those old stereos where it would show you a visualization of the frequencies and relative volumes. Kinda retro, I like it!

    Your style is beautiful and well paced. I love it and I think a lot of people think the same as me too. I am an experienced beginner, I had difficulty keeping up, but I got there despite everything and every day of rehearsal. Continue other songs, I follow all your videos. BRAVO BRAVO

    Thanks Jonathon for being such a great source of inspiration with your music! Having such extraordinary feel for the groove is a rare skill indeed for pianists! You're not a percussionist as well by any chance? :-)
    Btw, after finally freeing some time for practicing I finished my recording of your groove but am still bowing to the master himself!
    Keep grooving! :-)

  • @AncientEnergyEyesOpen
    @AncientEnergyEyesOpen ปีที่แล้ว

    This is epic. I'm at the bridge, and that left hand is so much fun. Once you get it, it locks in and I start bouncing.
    You have made me realize that I'm actually a decent piano player. Until I get to the tremolo...and my whole body tenses up and shakes left to right with my hand. 🙄
    Edit...3 weeks later and I'm at the end. My body and hands are relaxed (which only became a thing with this song) and I'm feeling like a pro. I've only had the weekends to practice this, and I'm super stoked that I finally made it to the end. You are a legend! Thank you for being my teacher, and not even knowing it.

      Hey Jonathon, I am preparing an 18 minute TED talk for next month called "Love Thy Piano - like you love yourself". I hope it's okay to use parts from this fantastic funk groove for it to finish it off - please let me know if it's not. I have added some melody and lyrics "two and three - give it all to me" and it's such a powerful finish "keep on playing - making your music dreams come true". I love it. Thank you again!

    Hi Jonathon, I'm new to the channel and it's really cool stuff you're sharing, unbelievable that it's for free...absolutely generous❤..your style and playing is on eye level with ie. Matt Johnson of Jamiroquai. I'm a professional Saxophonist but I'm teaching myself the piano and I'm deeply in love with funk grooves of this kind...your videos really help in developing as a player in that style👌
