Sorry for the particularly bad quality on this video. It was a bit too dark, so I tried some color correction to make it brighter, but it just made it look bad. Had to pick my battles...
I'll adjust the lamp for next time. Or go back to my green screen room (the basement) haha.

Learning something like that could be called “learning a lick” but it could also be called a “jazz torture method”
Tasmanian Tortoise Torture
Jazz and ball torture
How we all felt when you introduced the Mario kart lick to us. I felt like I was working on it for the LONGEST time
This is facts
I learned it in one study hall period during school 😂
Cooproxx hey some people may not have as much skill and may not have played as much as you have, so it’s perfectly okay for someone to spend more time on it than others
Ikr! it took me like a week and a half of pra practicing for like 2 hours a day!
@@JacksonRiddle90 he wasn’t implying any of that at all, and there is no need for this comment at all. Whatever though, its not like its in my control.
He played the lick and turned himself into a pickle, funniest thing I've ever seen
0:00 *plays 43 notes in 7 seconds* "Aaaah dude, slow practice is the goat!"
ok so i watched the video now and i understand what u meant
Liamplified 😂😂😂
I can't believe you counted lmoa

Wow sooooo rare
“It’s just a feeling that I’ve got, that something about to happen.
And I'm still here learning the Mario kart lick
This is what it means....TO GO EVEN FURTHER!
Vern SUPER SAYIAN 3!!!!!
Most channels would make you wait 4 minutes to hear the lick, in a perfect UA-cam every channel would do this when making a point in the title
*cough Adam Neely *cough
0:34
How many times do I gotta say it?
Charlie Parker
Sonny Stitt was also like that. He could play a world every five seconds and could keep pulling out monster licks that are monuments on their own. Great player.
@@NeoGodHand agreed
I see no cymbal here
Charlie would also pull a sneaky on ya, he has two or three killer licks that he’ll put in almost anything, once you know those you can play like a God. That’s not to say the man didn’t shred cause good lord them bad Bois could play
Hello,
I am 14 and its my thirth year of saxophon. I just wanna say that you are a realy good Player and i like watching you're content. Keep on going

I think my favorite part was just watching how calm you stayed when you got frustrated I mean dang I'm like Bruce Banner over here
Also that technique haircut clean 😤
A K lmaooo technique haircut
Tempo is just a mindset
Dustin Pace Words of wisdom from Dustin Pace
You can count the people who can play it at 116 cleanly & error-free. You took it several notches above that mark. Great Demonstration & thank you for teaching me what it takes to play at that level.
Few would've taken the time to do what you did & I've viewed the content of many of these instructional type videos.
The most effective way to get the most out of the 'shed is by doing it the way you demonstrated: SLOW PRACTICE.
You have to understand what connects the parts to make the whole, which takes the rest of your life.
Great work Saxologic.
I was just ab to work out, but you have me watching this video first 😂
The way you're learning this riff is exactly how I try to learn different guitar riffs. This is an excellent demonstration on how to practice.
Baptiste Herbin is just amazing, I got the chance of a masterclass with him. Not only his technique, but the ways he make his instrument sound, is just mind blowing!!! Thanks man for sharing, I really like your sound.
A.J that’s incredible! I’d kill to hear him live. Any tips he shared that you could share with me?
Saxologic well he actually shared what he practiced for improving his sound, like playing a chromatic scale with only the mouthpiece and the neck of the saxophone, his “subtone” on the low register trying to mimic tenor players. Also he said that he doesn’t like to use hard gear, or really open mouthpieces , cause he believes that sound is something in your head (of course the gear helps in someway ), but he insist that sound starts from your head., so he prefers to feel comfortable with the mouthpiece and reed and not fighting against that. If you want, I can send you the recording of the lesson, it is sadly only audio, and also I think I recorded part of a concert he made that time. You tell me if you wanted and how I candy share it with you. Keep with the videos, I really enjoy seeing you explaining about vocabulary and mostly bebop. Greetings man.
That’s terrifying, but all imma say is good job man!
Your tone is incredible, reminds me a bit of Paul Desmond
5:29 "Wow play slower and feel more efficient, what a ShOcKeR" 😂😂
0:39 the keyboard player has heard this so many times hes just like "not again"
You got David Goggin's eyes.
That's a compliment.
S7venteen I just looked him up. I... don’t think I do 😂😂
@@Saxologic u do.
Can we please just appreciate this man for linking the sheet music in the description, and even better, it’s free
“Slow Practice is the GOAT!” I need to implement that more
day 14 of quarantine: I'm up at 12:30 am watching some hardcore sax torture
Ok man ....yeesh
You'll get the 170 for sure! Really cool watching your practicing method.
Herbin’s technique literally blows me away. Also his body and soul recording is soooo good
John Glass It really is 🤩
Saxologic yo can u upload ur full Spain solo that u used for th e Mario kart lick video. It started good 👀
Baptiste is a monster! Was privileged to meet him last year and play at one of his concerts. Great effort man!!
I love this video. Really helpful to see what you do to practice such a difficult line. Need more videos like this because of how it gives us an insight into what techniques you do. Thankyou
learning a lick is sometimes more daunting than a whole solo! the worst part is when you gotta go through all the keys :))) anyways sounding amazing like always!!
Diego Hernandez all keys is definitely the most daunting hahaha
That's not a lick that's the whole solo 🤣
To quote Zack "playing fast is just playing slow, faster"
You are a BEAST, keep up the awesome playing, you’ll get that lick no problem
I love the way you practice man. Super thoughtful
I am 15, I play saxophone since 8 years and I love your videos, guy!
Oh bro I got it, you're musescore layout is up to date, I have dark mode turned on, I think the white was just making it look old. Also, did you publish the lick?
EverettLikesChicken I did not! Should I?
Saxologic Yes please!
Idk how I haven't found this channel till now but this dude just brought me so much happiness
I really enjoy watching you tackle these licks and other challenges!
Noah Hughes I’m glad :D
What a great video, bro! You're such an inspiration man! Love how you emphasise the importance of slow practice and how practicing too fast before you're prepared could reinforce bad habits. Really grateful to you for showing us your process step by step. Thanks man! And haha I felt you when you upped th metronome and for a second just got staggered at how fast it was 😂 So relatable lol
Baptiste Herbin is great. I love his compositions too
I’m literally grunting because you’re so close
Could you maybe make a tutorial showing how you would transcribe those insane double time lines?
Solomon Caraway sure!
lmao the end XD 9:09

Me, who grew up listening to Merengue Típico:
You are young but you really know your stuff, I am subscribed, dude!! Thanks for sharing. You will make me a better musician for sure.
*is a tuba*
"yo that's pretty good"
him: nyaarrrghh
me: nraarrrghh
I think that what you're doing in this channel is great! Amazing examples of how to practice efficiently. I'm applying all of this knowledge on my instrument.
Thank you very much
holy shit dude. watching this gave me crazy inspiration. it's suuuper defeating to practice à tempo, especially with an example of someone doing it so easily. this reminded me to give myself a break and let myself learn at a pace that isn't 170 (or whatever i'm trying to learn.) thank you for this video!
YES ... I heard Baptiste Herbin at the lamest jam session in Paris - and when he started playing it was like the sun coming up.
He is one bad dude.
when you transcribe fast/hard stuff like this do you slow it down on UA-cam? Also when there's certain parts that just sound jumbled because of audio quality like on Charlie Parker recordings, what do you do?
Hello! Something that you can do to slow down the video on UA-cam is got to the settings option on the video (on mobile for me it's 3 vertical dots on the right hand corner I think and on pc it's around the bottom right hand corner) and change the playback speed. Another method that can help with the jumbled notes when you're transcribing players like Parker is hearing it slowly and singing it back to yourself before trying to play it.
@@sequoyahcisneros8719 There's some value for new people who are just starting out transcribing stuff (maybe start with something a little easier though lol). Just don't rely or use it as a crutch.
Sequoyah Cisneros would you even say that for beginner improvisers? I’m a sophomore in highschool, still learning the ropes, there’s a mediocre jazz program at my school that doesn’t teach very far past blues scales when it comes to improv so I’ve had to teach a lot of things to myself with channels like this, that being said, almost every time I transcribe something I have to slow it down a bit to sing the notes and hear it, am I still cheating myself out? I feel like it would take hours if I didn’t slow certain things down
@@sequoyahcisneros8719 I can see your point, but I dont necessarily agree with the cheating you statement. To me there seems a lot more benefits and getting inside someone's sound and style that I believe some people wont get if they didn't transcribe slow. In addition when I do transcriptions I find that the more you do it the faster you'll be when it comes to recognizing notes. Plus working on it slow can give you more room to work with, more ideas, and can help copy/develop sound/ style. Though in the end it's personal preference. :)
@@DionteGeorgeMusic I know how to slow stuff down on UA-cam, I do it quite often when transcribing tricky parts, I was just wondering if he personally does it or if he just transcribes is full speed. Also, when I asked about transcribing jumbled notes, I meant in older recordings where due to the lack of technological advancements, its hard to discern note from note. A lot of parker's recordings from the swing era are pretty low quality, and with his blazing fast lines its very hard to get every note right.
I like that you use Nelson Faria's videos to give examples. Makes me feel a bit of brazilian proud
DUDE….I love your stuff
You deserves more subs, love the practice methods btw your great to learn from 👍
ya boi Umami I thought 33K is a bit too much! Even more feels undeserved 😂 but I wouldn’t complain!
Saxologic Not at all, you really are amazing keep it up
dude the M | O is nice. enjoyed the video, nice sounds!
Baptiste! I heard this guy at a random jam session in Paris late one night. The dude is an absolute monster.
As are you! Great video as always. Keep up that grind
Sean Miller Wow you heard him in person!?! That must have been a treat. And thanks man!
@@Saxologic He shows up at like 12:30am and absolutely dusts everybody on Recorda Me. That man is not human. The way you play, I wouldn't be surprised to see you in that rarefied air in the next few years. Cheers!
He's back! 😍
Nice, sounds awesome!
Thank you very much for your class jazz!🎉
You're far from defeated. You're gonna be fine.
Salve mestre Nelson Faria!!!
Saxologic, the lick man, always studying something nice and sharing with us! Thanks for this! Greetings from Brazil!
Satrian Arthury Hello Brazil!!!!!
As a trombone player I just about died thinking about playing something that fast (even at 85bpm I couldn't even do that) so excellent job lol
Anna Peacock my friend Evan Roberson is a trombone player and one of the best jazz players I’ve ever hung out with and he can play faster bop than I can
Saxologic Dang that's impressive
Two uploads in the same week? Quarantine because of Corona is the best and worst thing of 2020.
I can feel the exhaustion from the other side of the screen. Good work.
Why do some sax players play with their mouthpiece in the side of their mouth instead of the middle? I just noticed him doing it and I know Chad LB does it too. Is there any benefit or is it just preference?
For me personally it makes my dood’n tongue a little easier. I line it up symmetrically for classical playing though
Thanks! Love the content.
love your energy!
Still sounding really good though :). What mouthpiece do you play on and reeds
Once again, you continue to inspire me and work harder. I hope you don’t mind me taking a screen shot of that lick as I’m about to hit the shed and try and tame this mythical beast of vocabulary. And to think, the collective consciousness thought it to be a good idea to bestow this lick onto us minor consciousness’s’s.
Baptiste is one of the few people I really call absolute monster.
bless you man! gonna try it myself
Café lá em casa!!! Nelson Faria monstro demais!!!!
Men thats Nelson Faris with Baptiste Herbin! Nelson is a amazing brazilian guitar player..
Esdras Antero yes sirrrrrr
Thanks to this I have now learned how to practice better
Ayyy my dude back at it again 🔥
Great work man, I feel your pain. I've transcribed some Baptiste Herbin before and he's an absolute monster... tough stuff
And side note: those faces you make at the very end of some of your videos are a nice touch 😂
Sam K He is truly a monster. It’s unbelievable haha. And thank you man I’m glad you noticed 😂
The Mario Kart lick took 3 Hours to memorize and perfect, this....... we'll let's just say I started a little after you posted it and it's 6:40am rn
Kwright02 Hey I admire the desire!!
Saxologic thanks! I’ll post a video once I get it good
Bro you got this
The lick of all licks
Slow and steady wins the race
The battle is lost but the war is not over
Ali O exactly!!!!!
8:09 this sound you make, ahhaha that's when your really shedding. When friends came over when I was young they would always ask are you hurting ? It sounded like your in pain. .... No that's not pain it's anguish of the soul, because your focus was off for a split second so you did not press it the right way. So you start clenching your horn like a madman trying to squeeze all the non-focus juice out. This video makes me want to go back and play my horn!
Good luck man! You'll get it!
Hi Nathan, I quite enjoy your channel and your sense of humor. Keep it up! Talking about achieving greater virtuosity, this might help a bit: as a wind and sax player myself, I notice Baptiste is not playing with the tip of the fingers but rather with the flat part of the phalanx. This allows a much faster motion, as if the fingers were shorter. As for the articulation, well...
Great vid man. Thanks for broadcasting all those bum takes that we general never let people see haha! Slow practice is goat. It really has helped me! I've learned you can only really go as fast as your ear can understand! I'll get at you for another lesson soon bro!
SalvationSax Thanks bro. Good to see you again! Yes, slow practice is the goat indeed haha. And that’s a very good point. Sounds good!!
If you can play it slow, you can play it fast!
Twoset gang
that ending...
watching your left pinky gives me anxiety
0:28 OLHA O NELSON FARIA ALI AAAAAAA
So close, I believe you can do it!!
Baptiste Herbin is one of the best alto players on this generation (maybe in history). Very sad that he’s not that well known. That video is from “Um Café Lá em Casa”, a talk show where the host, Nelson Faria, is one of Brazil’s finest guitar player.
5:20 wow you seemed to have gotten it!
This isn't a lick this is an etude
Jeez man playing that lick at 138 is an accomplishment in itself
Crazy person:"ayo guys i just bought this charlie parker's omnibook, can't wait to play it."
Saxologic:"I really like baptiste herbin."
Baptiste herbin is crazy...
How in the world did you transpose that fast!? I’m still trying to transpose your Valerie solo!
Love the new logo bro
Thanks man!!
Come on, you can do it!!!
oh man, anything with Baptiste will be insane. especially on Parker 51
Desmond Barrett oh man that recording is insane
Legend
I’m a drummer and I love your vids
Seeing Nelson Faria in a Saxologic video makes me happy
