Dweezil Ripped My Flesh by Dweezil Zappa
SPONTANEOUS PHRASING
Listening to your own playing and reacting to it
Dweezil Zappa demonstrates the technique of listening to musical ideas as they are forming and then reacting to those sounds and following the improvisation wherever it may lead me creatively. - Hudba
Dweezil is so underrated on every possible level musically creativity and generosity..
Agreed whole heartedly
he's only underrated by people who have a scant regard for artistically creative people who have more to offer an audience than they can themselves...therefore their reviews are deemed worthless to open minded musicians. I agree with you 100%.
The last notes, the ones from the sirens, were done by his dad from the afterlife. ;-)
I really like Dweezil. He is like compressed guitar knowledge to me.
Fascinating.
Haha - Sirens of NY - Spontaneous improvisation - Nothing unusual - Great spirit of his dad Frank.
0:14 When He said: "some people", I thought about Frank Zappa on Mufffin Man intro.
Like cupcakes?
I for one care less for them
Lets try that again
@@greggerypeccary7491 ahahhaah yes

Love listening to Dweezil's approach and ideas, really really cool.
Dweezil is one of the best guitar teachers and his lessons are always interesting.
Dweezil is my favorite teacher in your history of teaching vids.
The return of the return of the son of Shoogagoogagunga!
Now I know how BB King would play the theme from the Simpsons
Love hearing his lessons very inspiring
I am so thankful for Dweezil
Love the way you think in these videos.
Explained so simply
Thank U Dweezil for being who U are ,,,, and please come back to Stockholm as soon as U can :)
Best lesson ever!
Wow ,thank you maestro!
i absolutely love this lesson. i read it in the mag, but this... thanks dweez.. you are a fantastic teacher..
The Dweezinator.
Dweezil, thank you so much for using the internet to spread the joys and beauty of music. And 275 thumbs up, and no thumbs down!!! That gives me hope for the world. I hope it is ok to take a minute to share my perspective = at 13 1/2 I saw the Woodstock and Jimi Plays films and fell so in love, that at 14 I bought a friends guitar and was taking lessons. And 42 years later I am still in love with all of the great guitar players, of course, including your dad. Born and raised in Philadelphia, which has seen terrible racial devides, I had 3 black friends in highschool. And something us East coasters know is why your dad hired young Steve Vai, and was the guitar talk of the 70's. Your dad hired Steve because he was the only one who could accurately transcribe you dad's wonderful and crazy lead guitar playing. Hats off To Steve : ) . It is so wonderful to see you carrying on with your fathers awesome musical legacy. And you being all about melodic playing warms my heart. Unfortunetely, even after 40+ years, the subtleties of playing in time and in key have escaped me. But thanks to your teaching, I still have hope. Sorry for the mush, when you are old you will understand. And Frank, you are not forgotten. I believe your dad just may like the idea of being alive forever, on the internet. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful gifts Dweezil.
Im downvoting him for your post
skobywan kenobi that makes you such a cool rebel
Thanks for the free lessons, Dweezil!
Mel Gibson + Jason Priestly = Dweezil Zappa
More dweeeeeeeez please
He makes it look so easy
Excellent!
The idea of having that "room tone" chord playing the background on the looper pedal is pretty genius. I've never seen anyone else do it in quite that way. He's also really good at modal mixture and playing outside of the box. I wonder who he got it from!
Good player! Thanks!
Playing pops music for the last 15 years live has surely improved your playing vocabulary .
Very, very useful lesson!
I would pay top dollar to be taught lessons by this man.
Thank you
Very Special Lesson on Guitar Playng Concept. .. Nice One ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍👌👏👋
thanks mate good vid
The dominant 7th stop !!!!!
Dweez you learned a lot from pops. And have become your own man in a very good way.
But damn man don’t give away our best secrets for being unique. Lol. There’s enough competition these days already. 😁.
😎🎸🎶✌️🤟
I'm fairly limited at my playing skills but exploring around on the fretboard at times can produce some interesting and satisfying results .
Absolutely. Keep at it and don't be afraid to MAKE MISTAKES!
It's okay to make mistakes, just call it jazz
Yeah i put an easy jazz track in background when i do that. Very entertaining
Same here. Just practice Barre chords and learn the pentatonic scale and you can venture past that third fret!
❤
I would love to take lessons from Dweezil
Zappa!
Sirens, yep.
if you listen closely enough to the note your playing it will tell you what to play next.
I love Dweez but he would be the first to tell you that the people saying he's a 'better' player than Frank have a very limited scope in how they assess a guitar player
Dude is nasty.damn.kinda been working on this.putting in the minor 3 or flat5.mixing modes etc.
Where do I see the figures they show you?
Was a good lesson.
Dweezil. Please do videos on how to play stuff from havin a bad day
You can’t ruin me ! And others.
Please. Please please.
Ok waiting.
missed the doppler effect gag at the end
Figure 5 sounds Joshy Homme to me. Check the M. Sweeney interview for fun and laughs 👌🏼
Call and response. Lydian. These are terms heard in videogame audio production.
Symbolic audio spacing is fun!
Woot.
Woot.
Woot.
Besides blues his pharsing is very Indian.
Joshua Homme eat your heart out
Lmaooooo
You are better looking than your dad. Best regards from Baltimore. Great vid!
what's new in Baltimore?
@@JerkMorrison Crime.
Jeffrey Bank I’ve been taking various girlfriends and dates to see Dweez since 06 and most agree he is pretty handsome.
Dweezil should try to grow a moustache like his dad's...
🤘😂🤘
Play Penguin in Bondage boy
Part Frank Zappa, part Eddie Van Halen, but mostly Dweezub
Dweelzebub?
Bass is the rhythm/key, drums are the timing/rhythm and guitar is the melody. NEVER EVER practice over another guitar. Always practice over drums and pay attention to the bass, snare and symbols. Count to 8 and listen to end note of each 8. And play off of that.
There is a lot to learn from this if you know how to.
Close your eyes and you will hear a young Charlie Sheen
lol
This is completely off topic, but does anyone else think it's criminal that neither Dweezil nor Ahmet have mustaches?
Ahmet does
Why is he hiding the headstock? Is that an authentic Gibson? Mark Agnesi will want to talk to you Dweezil...”You’ve been warned.”
Duckman
Step 1 Play chord
Step 2 Move here
Step 3 Do this
Step 4 See
If thats what you got out of this then I think you need to go back to basics bud...
@@MH-th5yc Pal, I can melt your face. Pfft
that dominant chord ringing out while he's explaining the concept is so distressing
just resolve it please
Mihály Ponyiczki you no likey the Electroharmonix "Freeze" pedal? He's showing techniques within that key numbnuts. That tone is where all his demos are pivoting around.
Hilarious 😂
Compelled to swallow quickly, are we now?
Mel Gibson?
He's a much better Guitar player then his Dad IMO
Who's the better composer?
Negative

WTF IS THAT BUZZING SOUND. there is a pedal tone in the back that makes him sound out of key.
parx jer idk, it seems like the first chord he played just lingered throughout the entire video for some reason
Sounds like he played a 7th chord and then hit an EHX Freeze pedal or some other similar effect to drone the chord. Jazz guitarists use those pedals to work out what's available to them on a per-chord basis.
The pedal tone is intentional and it doesn’t make him sound out of key, it simply provides a reference to give a harmonic context to the ideas and sounds he is presenting. As your ear develops, these ideas will sound less “out of key” and more “interesting”.

wtf is that guitar holy shit
wow! I find hes better than his dad hahaha.
His teacher was Steve Vai.
@@mr.ironbodybuilding that explains it then haha
better at what ? like writing classic tunes that will live forever or teaching guitar ?
@@TheBhannah lol at playing guitar period. And of course after seeing this yes the man could probably write better as well... It's just negative ppl like you who can't seem to know a compliment when you see one and if Frank Zappa was still alive he would naturally agree with me.
“Spontaneous phrasing” is playing random out of key notes... and acting like it sounded cool.
You don't need to act, it genuinely sounds awesome sometimes. Can completely change the emotion of a song.
Please kill the 60 Hz. hum, the straight blues segment was idiomatically correct but diametrically impertinent. Had no groove,brother. And the Lydian thing? Never play anything that weirds out the listener, when there is so much more beauty under your fingers to be found.
"Never play anything that weirds out the listener" lol this man is a Zappa, that's literally his father's trademark.. He told George Duke one time that you *had* to use "ugly" scales sometimes, to mix it up and keep it fresh essentially. It challenges expectations and that makes it interesting, imo. But yes, that hum throughout the whole video was totally unnecessary!
@@DoomKid So who put a nickel in you? You sound like a suck'up, Maybe he's sick of people like you talking about his father. People who type "lol" are usually jerks. I made a comment and I stand by what I said. Got a problem with that, take it to the Chaplain, fool.
I have only respect for Dweezil as a musician, but as an instructor, this has to be one of the worst explanations for playing in multiple positions that I've ever heard.
You simply pivot, don't overthink it! bro
You are exactly right.
Sounds like scales none of that got me goin. You wanna be spontaneous throw out your theory and go off of tone.
