Love the pun at the end
"You'll be a language MACHINE! AI will never touch us!"
A rare occasion where the title of a video actually matches the content. 10/10.
So you’re telling me that you remember 1200 phrase and can recall them in a second? But it feels like there is something else working! But seriously dig your playing
It's muscle memory.
You are a genius and following you is a step into being one.
Bird did this all the time and it is not limited to only tritone and minor third up, you can also play minor third down giving four options for each phrase - these are what classical musicians call Bartok Substitutions. I memorised 20 ii V licks and over a long ii V you have 80 options for the first half and 80 for the second half giving you 6400 different long ii V phrases. (Actually just under 6400 since one is repeated but that is just in one key!). If you vary each phrase a bit, different starting points, rhythm and editing you have an infinite number of phrases. When I am busking I start off by picking a progression in a major key and improvise over the loop for about ten minutes using this technique. It seems to go down well with the public! Definitely worth working on, but perhaps start with half a dozen or so licks in all keys and experiment, gradually increasing the licks until this is part of your vocabulary.
Diminished family! 1 b3 b5 bb7 those subs are sick!
I noticed in the video he only transposed the lick over the second chord in the long 2 5. But it works just as well to transpose both bars?
Off topic, but your so freakin' cool. You're the guy I imagined I would be in my head starting out playing jazz. . . Didnt happen!
Great video, really well presented. Keep it up ❤
So cool🎉
I'm gonna buy this one.
great video....
Thank you again, Nathan. Great info, brilliant teaching. Oh, and did I mention “entertaining”? ✌️
Playing from the gut sophisticatized.
Consider "Body & Soul" as a study. Would like to hear how you approach it.
Great
I was trying this over whole forms (all of me, never be another you and sunny side of the street)
It was easier to come back to whole forms after I played over a single 2-5-1 for a week at least.
I connect thirds. I thought all chord tones were equal-ish but not really as I’ve found out.
Hi Nathan, can you include the irealpro files for those who have the software please, we then can import it straight into the App, instead of just having the mp3 backing tracks, we also will able to speed things up, and manipulate as required, thanks in advance.... messaging from the uk.
The promo code is not working.
Thanks for letting us know, Becky! We just fixed it :)
@@jazzlessonvideos thank you… got it!
Thanks, Becky! Enjoy :)
Mashing up a collection of memorized licks😢

Better learn to improvise than firing off prestudied joker-licks.
