    Ok... have you heard of Quintuplet Swing?!
    You might not have heard of it - but - you will have probably heard it being used in quite a few records over the last few years...
    Records?! Lol... that shows how old school I am ;)
    Anyway, in this lesson you're going to find out what it is AND how to use it...
    Oh... and we've officially been gatecrashed... the phenomenal Adam Neely is your tutor in this lesson.
    Secondly... the bass lesson you're about to watch is part of the brand new course we've just released into the course library here at ScottsBassLessons... introducing "Decoding the Low End with Adam Neely"
    While other bassists have pursued somewhat more conventional careers, Adam Neely has always taken a different path.
    In this new course, Adam introduces some trailblazing ideas geared towards the needs of today's professional musician. You’re going to learn about polyrhythms and odd time signatures, the relationship between chords and different intervals, how you can relate harmonic theory to the bass and how you can use all of these ideas to improve your own bass playing.
    In This New Course You’re Going to Learn:
    - How to feel free within odd time signatures.
    - Quintuplet Swing and why music theory is like stamp collecting.
    - Reharmonizing, arranging and performing within a modern day framework.
    - The importance of how we measure sound.
    - All about Adam’s take on ‘phonometrics’
    - How to be more expressive with advanced rhythmic ideas.
    - How to apply chordal concepts to a melody.
    - All about the unique harmonic signature of the bass guitar.
    - And much, much more...
    You can check out Adam's new course here: bit.ly/2E88EVF
    As always, see you in the shed...
    Scott :)

    The traditional Hora is a 5/4 swing *exactly* like this (1-2-3, 1-2, 1-2-3, 1-2) although much slower. They’ve generally been moved to 3/4 or 3/8 to simplify the transcription and reading. But “swinging 5” has been in the Balkans for centuries.

      yep, and that's how hip swing really goes too, not the cheesy dotted 8th stuff he said was swing. I love how the young artists feel like they're inventing something new - when all they're doing is discovering the stuff that's not on the pop radio.

    I've always enjoyed Adam's ability to explain more involved or complicated musical concepts and theory in simple to understand terms. He's a really good teacher. I knew he was a talented player, but I was still surprised during parts of this video with his speed and how just basic and simple he makes it seem! The drummer was great too! I'd love to sit in a room with them while they jam.. Ideally, I'd like to play too, if they felt like handicapping their abilities so I could keep up! Haha.

  • @colinmignot6309

    Hey, one thing that helped me a lot to feel quintuplet swing (or even septuplet swing) is to count using takadimi system or indian counting system (check out ben levin's great video on that)To count 5 or really 3+2 use
    Ta ki ta = 3 Ta ka = 2
    That Way you CAN count way faster than with regular numbers

      It's not the mic. The whole video (except the Scott parts) is raised in pitch a little. The song was in a higher key than it should've been, but not faster, so the speed is the same. And you're right about hearing it in Adam's voice.
      Not sure why this was done, I mean it's not like the video has copyrighted music or anything...?

    • @JulianIsAnthony
      @JulianIsAnthony Před 6 lety +8

      Jake Sachs I noticed he sounded odd and now that you mention copyright, that might actually be the issue. The bots CZcams uses to comb out copyright infringements might automatically mute the music in this video. Also, I’m not sure if Adam’s band has had their material released through any label but if so, he might have little to no control over these matters.

    OK WOW.... I just gained a LOT of respect for adam......... he needs to display that he's this good more often....... Sometimes he seems like a guy who isn't realyl good at music but KNOWS a lot about it.......... then tries to teach people who are good at music.
    This is a VERY subtle back of the mind type thing. It took me like 5 days of watchign him to realize he was this good, and it's not even HIS CHANNEL!
    I GUARANTEE he would get more first impression viewers to view him more often if people immediately knew he was this good.
    Please someone who he will listen to should give him this advice.

    • @WLxMusic
      @WLxMusic Před 5 lety

      i think he just wants his music to speak for himself. You should check out some of his tracks. He's really good, and the music is really interesting.

    This segment on subdividing 4/4 into quintuplets was great! If you have watched/listened to Jacob Collier (and really, who hasn't by now) this is something he loves to do and talk about, but it didn't "click" with me until this video. It was really helpful to hear it slowed it down! It got me thinking about how, usually, odd time signatures like 5/4 sound off-kilter. But somehow, speeding up the 5 and integrating it into a 4/4 structure makes it sound funky, but yet it still sounds "correct" too. Anyways, this seems like a great course - really quality content here.

      Yeh, watch her Alter Ego video. It's one of the most listenable complex drumming parts I've heard, and it's full of quintuplets. At first you sit there and can't count a single thing she's doing. It's really hard to think that way if you haven't spent time doing it. I sat down last night with a drum practice pad and played around with it, and it makes a lot more sense to me now.

    Adam’s floating thumb technique is phenomenal. His economy of motion, relaxed posture, it’s just so on point.

    • @Terrible_Peril
      @Terrible_Peril Před 4 lety

      IPA SOLÉ oh man, the video from Monterey is amazing. I’m not the best with floating thumb but I work on it once or twice a week and it has definitely improved my playing overall with my right hand. I use my thumb quite a bit (a la PIMA like a classical guitarist) but I also anchor on a pickup or on an adjacent string plenty. Not a floating thumb purist, but I love it.

    Very inspiring stuff, I think a lot of bias against this style of electronic future prog jazz comes from insecurity of not being on this level of awesome skill level. I want to learn! Thanks Adam I’ll be checking out more of your vids, and thanks Scott for making this happen.

    The way I internalized 5/8 was by tapping it out with my hands throuought the day. (Rlrlr Lrlrl) where the capital letter is where I put the emphasis. I kept making mistakes at first but after some practice I was able to "feel" it and speed it up!

  • @upstatesccouple5675
    @upstatesccouple5675 Před 6 lety

    It's awesome to see quints finally getting some traction, and rigorous analysis. Don't forget that the first "rock and roll" recordings had a very similar feel, because all the players were jazz musicians who were migrating from a swung eighths feel to a straight eight feel. Listen to early Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and you'll hear part of the band doing swung triplets, some straight, and some in-between. The quint swing feel is also very similar to a New Orleans feel (sometimes called "greasy" feel). Great vid!

  • @perfectlygoodslouch5212

    I used to jam with my drummer buddy and play a different time signature over his drum beat and I compared it to ,When you are at a stop light and you have your turn signal on, and it flashes in sync with the cars turn signal in front of you for 1 or 2 beats but then out of sync and cycles around into the same spot? I know strange but it works for off the wall drum and bass fun.

    First of all, Great music and great playing! Back in the mid 70's a friend played for me an LP of the Chocolate Dandies recorded in the 20's. There was a piece that had this swing rhythm that was more choppy than your regular swing, a very distinctive feel. Well that must have been quintuplet swing or something similar. It was fantastic and I never heard anything like it before or since (until hearing this video and Adam's videos on this subject).
