Was literally just looking for a lesson on this; I swear I find all of your videos at the exact time I need them. Good video as always
Dan is not only the best bass instructor on CZcams, he’s a mind reader! As I’m typing this he’s working on a slap bass exercise video for us all. He already knows we need it…
😂
One coming in two weeks. It’s quite difficult!
As a guitar player of over 50 years, who has only recently become enamoured with bass, and bought two (a Thunderbird and a 5 string neck-thru), I am completely absorbed by how DIFFERENT the whole approach to playing this instrument is...🤔
And particularly...the rhythm aspect.
It really IS a whole new mindset!
😳💪❤️
We da rydum mun
I agrée Christo, I’m a guitarist turned bassist 3 yrs ago, it IS completely new .
Great lesson Dan the most important lesson for playing music.
Thank you again Dan! I love and prefer these 'longer' videos. I enjoy how you go into details!
And I think the pace in the longer videos really suits Dan's style of teaching.
Superb lesson once again Dan!👏
GOOD VIDEO YAY
Good video 👍. I generally associate the final 8th or 16th mentally with the subsequent note. If it's followed by a rest rather than a note, I focus on the ending of that 8th/16th.
Counting all the beats and the “ands” is hard for me, tho I played professionally for years, so I do it by feel. I wish I cud learn to count it cuz I wonder what I’m missing, tho I play funk and R&B. I thank you for this lesson, I admire you.
🙏🙏
🙌🏽
Hi Dan, I very much enjoyed your video, personally for me being able to count 16th notes in this 1e&a-2e&a-... way was a HUGE step forward. Once you can mentally structure music in these different subdivivisions, evereything make SO much more sense. BTW I had the chance to see Marcus Miller (the man himself) life in concert last week, and it was outlandish. His sense of timing is incredible. He definitely knows his subdivisions.....
He’s the best! What an amazing groove.
Yes the 'rests' always get me stumbling, especially those fractional (eg. 8th and 16th note) rests. 😕
They’re tricky! Practice, as ever, is the key.
Less-than-pro tip: using notation software (MuseScore in my case) can help learn to hear tricky rhythms because the software can play it for you. Once it's in my head, it comes out my fingers much more easily.
Excellent tip!
Good stuff, thanks! But to make them really helpful, the examples you play could do with a couple of bars counting in to help us establish the tempo before you start playing. Especially the last couple of examples with the 1/16 rests. As it stands, it's a bit frustrating.
Good point.
It will be nice if you can give lessons one to one online 😊
The man would be working 56 hours a day 😉
Maybe one day! But I don’t really have time right now.
@@OnlineBassCourses Keep doing what you are doing , mate
Dan this is the type of lesson for me 👍
I would also probably imagine for the majority of anyone learning bass.
Its great to learn scales, modes etc.. I can honestly say this is where I struggle.
Hopefully you can put a detailed course together very soon.
Yes, rhythm is key! I’ll do that course for sure.
You start the count 3, 4, before playing. Why and how does that relate to where the bass line begins, if that makes sense.
It’s just the same as counting 1,2,3,4 but missing out the 1,2. 1 follows 4 as night follows day.
@@OnlineBassCourses I’ll put it this way: Why start counting 3,4?
@@shooz4unme Ah, ok. a) why not? b) it's sometimes what musicians just do. I almost certainly should (in these CZcams lessons) count 1 2 3 4 so as not to confuse people. It's just sometimes... I don't.
@@OnlineBassCourses I take it the count off has nothing to do with the song.
@@shooz4unme You've lost me now. Are you referring to my example or songs in general? Counting in is just a way to start a piece of music. With multiple musicians present, it's essential so everyone knows when to start. In this lesson, I count in to show viewers where I'm starting (in this example 3 4 START - start is beat 1).
So Dan, my suggestion would be that you cut the amount of talking in half to start with moving forward, so you may use that time for more doing. In all your videos I find myself always very anxious, and waiting a lot for you to starting playing the notes. The actual playing makes a lot of things very obvious, so there is no need for so much preliminary explaining. Imagine your audience doesn't speak/understand English very well
The explanation at the beginning of the tutorial is essential to the lesson, if you don’t like the tutorials, don’t watch them! Personally speaking I think Dan is a fantastic tutor whose knowledge and experience is on par with the very best!
Thanks very much!
Thanks for the comment but I agree with the comment below. You shouldn’t watch my videos if you don’t like them or they make you anxious. I’m serious - there’s a lot of good stuff out there for you. Find it and watch it!
I’ll be continuing just the same way, thanks very much.
