I'm a drummer, and I get really jealous when I see/hear another drummer that can get so funky and cool with just a kick, snare, and hi-hats. That dude is killer.
if you want just practice like that. play your hardest songs and funkiest with just that. You’ll find there are so many ways to put inflection to express yourself with rhythm and timing.
true dat!
Yessir drummer is badass & ain’t no flies on bass player
You forgot cinder blocks.... I could totally play like this but unfortunately for me and the worlds ears i don't have any cinder blocks.
His name is NATE SMITH. A monster!!!!
When Joe's head bobs forward he's actually moving closer to the drums so he hears them sooner, allowing his brain to process the signal faster and keep perfect time when playing.
He's the best evidence for the evolution of necks we currently posses. The missing link.
Yes.
it's science
ahah that's a good joke. Everyone knows Joe's neck is a sentient manifestation in and of itself and is simply grooving to it's own perfect time feel, my man these are basics here keep up.
The best theory ever. Makes sense 100%.
if you guys played any tighter you would start to create nuclear fusion
Yvar More like a black hole
You're implying that's not happening already
Been studying these dudes on repeat for a few hours now. The secret sauce is:
>Bass player without neck
>Rhythm guitarist without wrist
>Drummer without drum kit
>2nd guitarist acting like nothing is happening.
And. Guitars on stands. Seems important.
I will tell my band this on our next jam session. Perhaps it will funk
Don't forget the coat on the mic stand
@@Blend3rman coat is an essential ingredient for this recipe
*F o u r t h p o s i t i o n*
ikr I am fucking loving it!
@@Blend3rman a fucking winter coat, belonging to the drummer, currently wearing a tank top
In years to come, Joe's gonna have to support his neck with a Fender Brace.
What's the point of commenting after this? Like, seriously. How long have you been sitting on this? I'm out. Take the damn upvote.
Joe. Dart. On The. Fen. Der. Brace.
Alex Ball You've been awarded 1 month of CZcams Gold for this comment.
OR, Joe Dart will have a neck like a linebacker and we'll all be in physical therapy from hunching over our screens with our jaws dropped.
I'm the one having neck problems, been watching this on repeat for too long!
That Joe Dart groove is illegal in at least 8 countries
Anthony Morlacci ... For the use of lethal funk!!!
This level of funk is illegal under the biological weapons convention
He committed so many crimes in this groove that here in Brazil he would be president. LoL
Aint illegal here yet. Imma go groove my neck broke
Joe is facing multiple charges for this 2 and a half minute stunt, rape charges for just heartlessly raping that bass, illegal biological warfare for unleashing an unhealthy amount of funk on everyone, domestic abuse for melting all of our faces... on purpose... to name but a few.
Drummer KILLED it!!! He needs some love too !
The legendary Nate Smith! What a fucking monster
Man is funky. What's his other bands?
beetooex check out Afro Blues by Takuya Kuroda (just check out that whole album actually). He played the drums on that album (rising son)
Nate Smith is the man - one of the best at what he does today and ever.
Jose James is his main gig as a sideman. He got his own band though czcams.com/video/peYcNm3JTe8/video.html
Nate's drumming is so earth-shaking that they not only had to put concrete bricks against the bass drum, they had to put all the guitars on stands to keep the guys from falling over! Joe is barely hanging on. Damn those final 30 seconds!
If this is an introduction I don't wanna know what a goodbye sounds like
Hero Town came to my mind when thinking of that
a plane crash
at the end there was the intro to conscious club btw
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣dying
there's definitely explosions once funk hits critical mass
What Nate Smith does in the outro/breakdown at 1:55 should be illegal. That's weapons-grade funk.
Michael Cameron made my face cramp up real bad

JOE DART ON THE BIG GUITAR
Joe Dart on the Big 4 String Guitar
Mark Lettieri on the normal guitar
Cory Wong on the small guitar
Nate Smith on the- wait that's not a guitar
Well a guitar is a tambourine with a ton of different pitches - a very strange-looking tambourine, more or less. So I guess the drums are the other way around, basically a guitar but with a lot less different pitches - a very strange-looking guitar, more or less.
But Mark's on the baritone guitar.
That's no "normal" guitar Mark is playing - it is a baritone guitar. Cory is playing the "normal" guitar... i.e, Fender Srat
1:36 i cant get enough of this solo
Mark is wayyyy too good
@@thegeigs1 truly
Nate Smith's from another planet!
One Eyed Donkey he is unreal. Grooves for days!
Nate Smith. One of the best things going for music today.
Nate Smith is unbelievable on the sticks.... Hands down I've never seen a band so good
How in the world are these sunglasses still on his head?!
TheZaxc Funk acts like glue
Superglue
Everything in this room is TighAF ^^
He was born with them on. They're a part of his being.
Araldite.
That's the BEST 2 mic drum sound I've heard in a long time! No dampening on the snare. No ring-- so dry?! Tiny little kick drum with a pillow between the mic and the drum?? That's a snare with a K right there.
colmas It's probably just highly compressed
Did you ever hear about the Vulf Compressor?
If you notice, when the camera zooms on Nate, you can see he has a dampening ring and what appears to be a thin cloth (there are some wrinkles moving while he plays)
compression does not eliminate ring at all
yep rob and devin know whats up, great company.
I want a Joe Dart bobble head
Joe Dart IS a bobblehead
Owning people is illegal
They're actually making one, I'm dying XD
0:48 "I never went to jazz school, but I want Joe Dart to play a solo of continuous 16th notes for as long as he can"
JAZZ SCHOOL NONO
same as the bass solo in captain hook
I heard the same thing!
Because the solo in captain hook is copied from the original jazzschoolnono.

Cue up thousands of concerned comments about joes neck.
Oh, hi Dart
Morfe "What a story, Dart. Anyways, how's your bass life?"
Morfe I did not play the base hard enough, I did not...
*_YOU'RE TEARING ME APART, BASSLINE_*
1:55 to the end should be illegal
no man should have that much groove
unreal
nate effing smith
Jack Stratton has his genius finger on a pulse that no one else has even begun to comprehend
Those bird like neck movements so perfectly captures the groove. As for the dope drumming, man he filled every space in the song, he was just all over it.
Scientists have discovered a new form of clean power - funk fission. They locked these guys in a musical reactor room, got the funk out and fired them up. Bingo, enough power to keep New York City going for a week.
I love that synth glissando up in the last part, when Nate is doing his solo. It's so subtle, but really crates a lot of tension!
What's this? Could it be? Joe Dart flying out of formation!
@1:53 - Holy good lord, that is some serious grooving from Nate Smith!!
See, when you're playing music live and creating things, a player can strive for many aspects...expression, dimension, perfection, energy, the selfless, soul...
What we have here is all of it. In abundance.
Cory No-Wrists Wong
Northstar Magic Cory "Only Cartilage" Wong
Cory "Rubber Chicken With Fingernails" Wong
he simply turns all the bones in his hand into cartilage while player, easy peasy
That loose and that tight is genuinely pretty unusual. Great sound though.
i read this as "cory no wist wong"
Y'all! Mark ACTUALLY has a stank face. A well-placed stank face, I might add. Check it: 1:46
If you pick up Joe Dart and move his body around, his head remains perfectly still.
Ted Thomas hes got a built in stabilizer
Like a chicken gimbal
Video category is Education.
Class is in session. Today's lecture: *F O U R T H P O S I T I O N*
Every positive emotion. Thank you for bringing that ultimate sweet jam to my ears and brain. I regret every previous use of the word ultimate in my life.
that comment is almost as heavy as this shiet
Wow. They are all masters of their instruments
Joe has become my bass idol the past couple of weeks.
I love that Jack comes in at the end! The guy just can't help himself, he's a fanboy of his own bandmates and is such a hype guy!
I've been watching all the other Fearless Flyer videos and I'm just now realizing they're all wearing black flight suits... that look awesome.
Holy moly... Nate's grooving from about 2:10 to the end... stupendous. Kind of Actual Proof meets disco-funk and shoots into the stratosphere
Joe Dart for president 2020
Nate traded his sleeves for the ability to perform a drum solo with a two piece kit and a hi hat. Bravo.
can we take a moment and appreciate dat snare sound...
The definition of groove: Nate smith gives you a master class in what you should do. What tasty drum groove.
1:53 is where the magic starts.
1:55 - Nate Smith rewrites the entire Matrix code with 30 seconds of paradiddle fucking MADNESS.
These four talented musicians have got it going on!
i'm a metalhead and i love this. good music is good music, no matter the genre
1:54 INSANE
This sounds like all Vulfpeck songs combined, I love it
My goal in life is to learn how to play bass like Joe Dart and drums like Nate Smith.
Then I'll fail that and develop something mine. And my life will be complete.
This guitar sound really reminds me of my church back in the backwoods of South Carolina. All my uncles played blues and banjos
Category: Educational
Educatin' us fools
Yeah cos THATS HOW U DO IT
Damn right
Two seconds into the song and my head was already moving violently back and forth.
Johnny Knoxville killing it in the guitar!
I closed pornhub to watch this and I wasn't disappointed *AT* *ALL*
Came here after pornhub and got even harder
I opened pornhub and this song started playing ;)
Wait this isn't pornhub
Your eye sight will thank you later.
I closed the fetish section because this vid was more nasty
Whenever I feel bad, I just listen to this bass solo
Everyone's talking about his neck but how is Joe Darts Glasses still on his face
it's wayfarers, they clamp to the skull
@@NotDingse huh?
@@KnightInGale74 The ends of the legs of Wayfarer glasses (also called the temple tips) go inwards in a way that make them grip behind the ears, so that they don't fall of when you lean your head forward.
@@NotDingse whata what?
@@KnightInGale74 I DOUBLE DARE YOU, SAY WHAT ONE MORE GOD DAMN TIME!
So, here it is. This solidifies Joe Dart as the finest bassplayer ever. I've been playing for nearly three decades. I've covered everything from Entwistle, Squire, John Paul Jones, Geddy Lee, Bootsy, Zender, etc, etc,
None of them hold a candle to Dart. None could play with his level of precision, rhythm, tightness, flawless technique. He is the Stevie Ray Vaughan of Funk Bass. And that says he is the best, period.
Sorry dude...that's just crazy talk... This guy is good, kudos to him. His groove is decent, but as fast as he is, he is also choppy and feel is kinda robotic at that tempo. John Paul Jones has more funk in his right fingers than both of this guys hands.
had no idea that johnny knoxville was a guitar player
Impossible de se remettre d'un morceau pareil...du grand art !
dude this drummer made me regret not having children only to show them this song
That was so incredibly 🤒 I can’t believe it. There was a vacuum in the stops. These guys can play!!!
Not even Flex Tape could hold down the power of Joe's neck
Thems was the _b i g_ choppa rounds right there. I for one love watching Joe bob his head like he's trying to break his neck, it's such an authentic physical response to art, and art is literally the physical manifestation of emotion. Honestly if you're playing music that doesn't make you instinctively feel like moving around, I don't know if you trust your art enough. Joe is 10 fingers 10 toes _devoted_ to his craft, and it truly shows. He reminds me of the way Stevie Wonder bobs his head, because the emotional catalyst of the music just hits him so hard he can't sit still. Also, Nates tempo would make J.K. Simmons break down in tears, the man isn't mortal.
Is this a prequel to Conscious Club?
W h e w, l o n g f l i g h t
This reminds us that that drummers don't need an oversized drum kit to lay down great beat. Great riffs all around.
Jumped out of my boots straight into the funkmosphere :o
That sound, its amazing. Straight 70s grain, so authentic
How do you guys have so little sunscribers? Some of the best music ive listened to in years. Unbelievably feel good and just god damn funky. Hopefully one day catch you live. Joe...... your head will fall off one day. Just sayin!
I want to see these guys live!
r they dying?
@@thegeigs1 Yes, they’re all terminal… 😬
I love the sound of this (minimalist) drum! Great mix work.
Kurtis Cowboy Turner oh in Facebook photos and videos no problem 🌹.
Ever been so impressed by something that you just burst out laughing in disbelief? Yeah. That. Jesus, man. Wow.
That's it, I'm suing Joe for giving me phantom neck pains
This is some REAL music by some UNREAL musicians!
this songs harmony is even more functional than conscious club
damn
0:48 honestly, this is one of the funkiest dirty vintage bass solos I've ever heard!
At 0.75 speed. Sounds more funkier
You could say
It gets funkier
Now watch it in 1.25
Nate Smith is the hero we need! Man! That's funk right there! Nice!
To archive playing this tight you have to write your music sheets in C++
I'm blown away at how full the drums sound with only a kick, snare and hi-hat.
Well, there's also a pillow and two bricks...
1:08 How does Joe Dart do that lol
What CAN I say? This is a Vulcano Song!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Amazing folks! Simply Amazing!!!
00:14 recording with cheezburger?
Really brings out the funkiest and greasiest of frequencies
Yangshensensen lol
Nate is one of the baddest drummers out there! If the after life is me sitting in the clouds playing a beat that is this in the pocket I will be a happy man.
THE FUNKTASTIC FLYERS FLY FEARLESSLY INTO FLIGHT
Nate Smith is pure magic.
joe dart on the fender bass guitar!!!
Mad drumming! Old school style. Love it.
@1:07 from the video editor: "Ya'll seein' this?"
There are not too many drummers out there that move me like Nate Smith. That last bit at the end is like being in the middle of a damn tornado.
Umm. Gonna have to do the stankface to this.
A funky bass solo AND a funky baritone solo in the same song? This may be a first in music history. I'm so intoxicated by this heavy dose of funk I think I need a designated driver. Funk on!
1:53 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Keep coming back to this. Pure dirty funk groove. Love it!
Joe Dart's head movement is the metronome
Literally a human metronome
More like neck metronome
Dart is truly one of my favorite bassist's. like him, Kristen Dunn, and Julie Slick, favorite bassist's. The three in particular i actually aspire to.
#NICEBOOTS
This is just SO freakin' cool! Thanks for layin' on the funk!
Drum mic looks like a hamburger.
... I think I'm hungry..
