Playing 30 Notes Per Second 🎸Joey De Maio & Michael Angelo Batio Speed Record In Unison
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 бер 2024
- From the moment I first played with Michael Angelo Batio, the meanest and fastest guitarist on the planet, we instantly hit it off; not only musically but in our shared mindset of always pushing our capabilities. 🏔️🎸
In this video, you see Michael and me playing scales at increasing speed - using a combination of alternate and economy picking - culminating in 30 notes per second, played together in unison. ♬🏎️
As a bassist who has always sought the outer limits of what is possible on my instrument, and Michael, a guitarist with unmatched ambidextrous skills, we wanted to smash through the boundaries of the Shred Zone and launch ourselves into the Ultra Shred Zone. 🚀
Our good friend and audio engineer Dirk Kloiber, breaks down the madness for you:
"You can find countless videos on the internet of people claiming to play a certain number of beats per minute (BPM). However, without a musical reference, this number alone doesn’t say much. The musical reference for Joey and Michael Angelo in our session is 4/4 time. A quarter note is divided into 16th notes, so 64 notes per bar. At the record speed of 113 beats per minute, they play 30 notes per single second.”
However, this isn't just about setting a speed record; it's a celebration of what is possible when you combine determination, perseverance, and the power of your will to achieve the ultimate.
It's the feeling of accomplishment; realizing that you are stronger today than you were yesterday.
And knowing in your heart of hearts that this is not the end of the journey. It’s just another milestone. 🔥💪
So, join us as we redefine the speed limits of guitar and bass and tell us in the comments what YOUR next big goal is. And then go out and take the first step towards it!
For the only true surrender is not trying.
Our hope is that we can inspire you and help you on your journey.
Remember to stay true to yourself and live a powerful life! 💪

What is wrong with the comment section? Why so many people offended by few fast notes?
This is such a sympathic-video! And a true Bromance!!
i like to call it the "pacman zone" because at a certain tempo everything sounds like an 80s arcade game
Black arrows of death sent straight to the hearts of all those who play false metal AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
All these years and Manowar is still evolving and stretching the boundaries of heavy metal. The ultra shred zone will melt so many faces around the globe. Can't wait for the new album. MAB is perfect metal warrior for Manowar.
Fast, faster, faster, faster, speeding always kills. Nothing else takes us to get these thrills.... Blistering Hand speed! Love this content, keep them coming Joey!
Fast, faster, faster, faster
Speeding always kills! Greetings to all Manowar family from Athens Greece ❤
Michael Angelo looks like Muscle Man from Regular Show.
Joey is the fastest bass player in history
Faster than my personal best a while ago anyways. And not done pushing my limits, brother, that's for sure.
Sir, you are a true legend.Definetily the fastest bass player who ever lived and among Steve Harris & Cliff Burton in my opinion the greatest bassist. A true honour, joyous and humbling experience to see you play live.🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for the kind words greatly appreciate it I’m just having fun playing and I hope to be able to do more to help other players in anyway, I can thinking about an instructional video and a Masterclass tour and a few things like that let me let me know your thoughts on that
@realjoeydemaio Joey, I love Manowar ever since I first heard you guys up until now, Awesome music! I am thankful that I can send you this message. Your band is very unique and your music has a hell of an energy to it that is for sure. I am proud of your music. There's nobody like Manowar.
well, thank you so much for the comment and for your support really appreciate it please subscribe like and tell all your friends to do the same and join us
Ι'm really digging this a lot, really love those videos...BUT...! What i absolutely love the most is how YOU guys are getting such a huge kick out of this!!! I see Joey having fun, I see MAB having such a good time, both respectful towards each other's talent and dedication!!! seems almost like watching two absolutely care-free children enjoying their new Christmas toys, not giving a flying fuck about the rest of the world around! Can't wait to see more, can't wait for the "Sign of The Hammer 2024" and the new record- when you are having such a great time with your fellow musicians in the band in the studio, I can't see where this can go wrong! We are most probably going to have one more beautiful record like Hail to England, Into Glory Ride, Warriors.../ Gods of War, Kings of Metal or The Triumph of Steel, showing the world who's the real epic leader of the game...One more "magic circle made by the blood of the Kings"! BRING IT OOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!! Love from Greece guys! Joey, you rule, keep it up, fuck the world!!
I am 37 years old... I thought that shred music was dead! There's still hope out there! It's never too late... I never dreamed that I would see you guys doing that! Congratulations Gentleman! It's good to be alive and be able to watch you guys shred! I will immediately pick up my guitar and shred it! Thanks, Joey and Michael!
I love them! ❤ ultra shred zone
Joey doesn't keep up with the metronome. The metronome has to keep up with Joey 🤘😎👍

You are a great teacher and make such complex musical things understandable. The knowledge you share adds a whole new realm to listening to music, no matter what band I listen to. Thank you so much for sharing what you know.
You two are great guys, have fun 😎👍
I can't see the end of the video because Joey and Mike are continuing to reverse time on and on!
That was fun to watch 🤘🏼
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing this. It makes me want to pick up the guitar again. 😀
Amazing!!!
Perfectionists!!! Keep up the great work!! 💪💪🇬🇷🇬🇷
As MAB said : "NO BOUNDARIES"
Love these videos ..plz dont stop. mighty hail from 🇨🇦
Looking forward to see you in NY this year.
Thanks Joey & MAB. Love the informative bit at the start. Always a pleasure when ManOwaR sets another world record.
when you leave the shred zone, you're in the astral plane... and you Feel the Demon's whip!
Two of the greatest right there! 🤘
Amazing
What an amazing demonstration Joey, love Manowar⚡️✊️
Manowar never misses, whenever I feel really down... I always somehow find my way back to the true power of steel. These guys are Wizards, real talk, and MAB and Manowar together is just otherworldly 🎉❤
Thanks for sharing Joey and Michael
Our pleasure. It was fun pushing ourselves. Let's see where this leads us down the road
Over the top, outlandish and fucking awesome, I couldn't expect less from Manowar!
To all the nerds counting notes and slowing the video down to "figure it out" - GET A LIFE! They could be playing half as fast, it would still be ridiculously fast. And who cares anyway...

Wonder if there be some really fast new songs ;-)
Oh Yes - love it
thank you very much Officer
MANOWAR KILLS!!! That was awesome! Nice to see MAB still has no boundaries 😉 Now I have new speed challenge. If I can’t do it, I’ll just practice my MANOWAR screams 🤘🏻
Insane
70yo yet so smooth fingers articulation... that's purest dedication to music.
Very cool demonstration of precise synchronisation of both hands, you can't do it without an extreme disciplinary dedicated practice routine. Respect 🙏
Thank you very much!
Excellent! Hope to see something like that in the new record 😎
You bet. Just don't blink, it's so fast you may miss it 🏎
@@realjoeydemaio That's the Manowar way hehe. Congratulations
I can't wait to see how the imposibile will become possible. Go for it!🤘🔥
Thank you, dear
WOW!
This is good shit, keep it up Joey :D "We're communicating with aliens" killed me xD

Love your hands Joey 😊
You're too kind
That is incredible muscle memory and technique 😎
Thank you kindly
This is sick! You guys are true inspirations.
That’s what we’re doing this for is to inspire people so they understand they can do whatever their heart desires and be the best they can be please like comment and subscribe
@@realjoeydemaio That's great. Michael's been an inspiration since I picked up the guitar. You're a monster bass player too, man! I definitely subbed and will be coming back for more. ;) Shred on!
Thank you, brother spread the word
Wish it was Saturday already!
Now I know what this reminds me of....the movie Spaceballs and the scene where they go for "ludicrous speed". 😎 It is so amazing to see what can be done with talent, skill and discipline!
Great comment hilarious thank you so much for taking the time to write please like and subscribe tell your friends to join us
Man, MAB and Mr. De Maio are clearly masters of their craft. Younger guys in their 20's and 30's can't match these badasses.
And to think they say that you're supposed to slow down as you get older.
Clearly these 2 have not gotten the memo, lol
Great demonstration!!
Both Joey and Mike are among my shred heroes.
I'm curious as to your thoughts on Roy Marchbank.
Pointless.... Love it!
Hi Joey, I've become a big fan of Manowar recently and I want you to know that you and the band improved my life and now I can't Imagine a life without Manowar. Also I love this channel and the videos you are making. I hope that you will soon come to Italy, there is an insane amount of Manowarriors here that want to see you again.❤
Thank you we love Italy and thank you for your comment. Please subscribe to the channel and tell all your friends to join us. One day will return to Italy when we find the right promoter who will use your ticket money to put on the production you people deserve In the meantime please travel to other countries nearby and see us, so you get the ultimate which is what you deserve
@@realjoeydemaio ❤❤ the problem is that is not easy for others to travel to Germany or other countries, atleast for me.
My parents would allow me to travel around italy but won't do the same about other states, so i would like if you return to Italy whenever you can.
We will wait for you Joey❤ Hail to Manowar and the brothers and sisters of True Metal out there✊️
welcome to the family
Welcome!
good job guys lol that was fire!
Thank you so much please subscribe and like and tell all your friends to join us
I knew of course that Joey is very fast (sting of the bumblebee etc) but it's only now with those recent videos that i realized how hell of a fast he is! Ultra shred zone indeed.
Of course this will ruffle some egos... While I dont see this benefiting a piece of music it sure is cool to watch! I think virtuoso is correct, especially because you can clearly hear each note. Badass guys!
Joey Rules 🤘👿🤘
I don't get why this video gets so much hate.
I wish I could play like that.
Thank you for the comment brother one thing you have to learn when you start out in this business is you have to be prepared to take compliments as well as negativity and stay in the middle if someone says you're the greatest in the world there's no such thing if somebody says you're the worst in the world there's no such thing but these are good lessons that I wish I would have learned earlier than I did I could have saved myself a lot of grief but now it really doesn't matter as long as you're having fun just do it and enjoy yourself thank you for your support Please Subscribe like and tell all your friends to join us
@@realjoeydemaioWise words
Faster than the Speed of light...😮🎶
My brain exploded and it's all over my keyboard... it's ruined now... thanks a lot.
🤘
They can technically make the notes-per-sec _even DENSER_ ... *if ONE of them starts on the off-beat...*
...So even if they'd each be playing a 64th note (each, separately), theoretically in the combined wall-of-sound it'd be a... *128th note !! :D*
Good luck with *THAT* precision tho... It's practically unachievable, unless they slow down the BPM by a factor of like 2-3. ... And *then* speed-up the recording so that it *_sounds_*_ "fast"._
.
💯👌👌👌
3:27 jumps to what you came here for
Ha ha ha ha ha. BOOM!!! Mind blown!!!!
HAIL !!! BROTHERS and SISTERS of TRUE METAL !!!
Reckless speed, yeah ❤❤❤❤
What a blast! Got completely hypnotized by watching those lightning fast fingers. Commit in totality, or quit🤘Dreams here i come
Good for you stay on the pass there’s gonna be more videos coming and also a few surprises. Maybe we’ll meet one day in person. We’re considering doing a Masterclass tour to inspire people who are looking to achieve their dreams. Remember, anything is possible with hard work
@@realjoeydemaio That tour would blow my mind! Was going to come to latest spoken word tour to witness those Words of Power. Meeting you in person is a dream i barely even dare to dream, it would be something i'd be thinking on my deathbed still🤘💥
Hey Joey. Would you please consider playing I believe on the upcoming tour?
We can put it on the list for consideration thanks for the suggestion
The new bass looks amazing!
Joey, can you share with us the specs?
This is not the new Aluminum Monster. It's not finished yet. Stay tuned for more progress reports
Nice! Are you picking all notes or doing some legato in some places?
! Thanks for your comment Please see my comment above for explanation. Thank you for your support of the channel and please subscribe and tell your friends to join us.
Scary good...
Thank you so much
@@realjoeydemaio - Met you back in late 80's "Channel Club" in Boston, you played 2 shows in one day, stayed for both.. Hail & Kill!
Thank you so much that’s amazing story. Really appreciate it please like comment and subscribe and tell all your friends to join us.
Godssent epic warriors of steel made their legend in this realm, that will live on eternity long!
Hail!
HAIL!
*HAAAAAAAIL!!!!*
I made a computer program in highschool in the 90s and I would click a mouse. Given I was a great guitar player even back then I could only hit 12. On a guitar it's probably half that! If you can hit 6 that's something like 300 per minute. Very fast!
damn, i gotta practice more lol
With enough practice, I'll get to play the first note of the scale :)
Play THAT in "Encounters of the third kind".......
pra mim que toco baixo esse video foi foda!
How fast it is possible play the unplugged guitar? I' ve seen some videos on UA-cam, may be someone has anything interesting about this topic. By the way, Manowar comes to the speed of light.
Good question I have no idea but I’m sure there are plenty of people out there that are having fun trying to do that as fast as they can. Thanks for your support please comment like and subscribe and tell your friends to join us.
Is this only alternate picking or are you doing some economy picking as well?
Yes, it’s a combination, but mostly alternate picking thanks for your support and for taking the time to comment please like and subscribe and tell your friends to join us
Isn't a bass tuned up an octave, just a normal guitar tuning at 82 hertz open E?
Correct if you are assuming we are tuned to a 440 thanks for your support please like subscribe and tell all your friends to join us
I have the need for speed. Why? I have no idea and have no need to fight it but to embrace it. ----------- Yeah I love Iron Maiden a lot but they don't have the type of riffs and speed that I sometimes need. That's where Yngwie or Manowar comes in. With Batio in there, it's gonna be a blast of fast blazing Metal.
Thank you brother will you found a home here with us please please comment like and subscribe for more stuff and more fun. We’re going to build a great community cool people here with your help.
Making the impossibile, possible
Someone wisely pointed out you can read it as "I'm possible". How about that for motivating perspective.
Interesting point of view. As always, you hit the spot 😉
If you want to play faster than Batio: 1) buy a spinning reel, 2)put 2 picks on it 3)put the construction on your guitar and realise that you are still slower.
Manowar going up a notch in shred speed. I always felt that Logan was too bluesy for Manowar style. Joey's pick for Angelo is meant to be.
Thank you so much for your support. We appreciate it please comment like and subscribe and tell your friends to do the same.
If 30 bmp = 10 nps, then 90 bmp = 30 nps ?
i slow the video just to make sure. this two guys are not your average old folks.
You and Michael are made to be in a band together. After Ross he is by far the best Manowar guitarist.
C'mon guys, you don't need to prove your talent. We all know who you are 💪🤘
It’s not about proving anything it’s challenging ourselves to try and do better and better all the time we like to inspire people and we think that there’s no better way to do that because we want to help players getting started or people who are advanced to wish to go to another level And so by pushing ourselves, we hope to inspire anyone to realize they can do whatever they want
Leaving the shred zone....that was funny.
Can anyone show me a tab of this? I want to practice it!!!
It’s just the mixolydian scale starting on F sharp please like comment and subscribe to the channel. Tell all your friends to join us.
The neck of his bass guitar always looked so narrow to me. Comparing to Lemmy's Rickenbacker that looked normal width.
Same. Always wondered why it looked like a broom handle.
Thanks for your comment. It’s not a normal bass it’s custom built
@@realjoeydemaio Superb! Staying with the analogy your bass is Built for speed :)
does anyone have the tab for this i want to try and see how well i can do
It’s a G mixolydian scale starting on F sharp very easy
What are the exact notes you guys are playing? Because there is no "F#" in G mixolydian. Which is the 5th degree mode in the key of C Major. Michael says: "We go up and hit the flatted 7th"? The 7th note in G mixolydian is F and "flatted" F is E? Which is already in the scale? Maybe he meant something else?
he said we are using part of the mixolydian scale the scale we played is F sharp GABCDEFG on the way up, and the same back down it equals 16 notes
@@realjoeydemaio Thanks for verifying that. Yes that's what I thought the notes were playing along with it and watching you guys' fingering patterns, that would be 16 notes per beat! I'm practicing it! In 2002 I played a composition The Phoenix at 20 nps after the intro, all alternate picked, 200 bpm, 6 notes per beat. During the solo I do a descending 4 octave scale on 7string guitar that briefly peaked at 26.5 nps. That piece had all kinds of velocity details in it with melody lines and was written out in the description and played on some guitar sites. But since then I didn't think people cared about speed anymore since there are so many great players out there and on UA-cam that have speed and technical capability, that may have at one time or another reached plateaus even if they weren't officially measured, you can hear it. But 30 nps is a new challenge as a summit, and since it's a 16 note ascending-descending scale pattern and not a piece, it focuses on speed in a linear, tight and rigid fashion within a smaller space. I wouldn't have thought of that scale arrangement or bpm, quite honestly it's brilliant.
I would probably describe it musically as: "F# Locrian With A Flat 8th". Because the "8th" note F# isn't played again as the octave on the run after it starts, and F is. Or can be described: "G Mixolydian With Augmented 15, Starting On F#". Since it does go G to G full scale with the standard key C major notes played, after the second octave sharpening the 15th note would give F#. Anyways those are descriptive details, but: "Things Are Only Impossible, Until Somebody Does It"!
wow, that all sounds fantastic. Congratulations. I’m glad to see that now you finally understand it’s really just about having fun and pushing ourselves. Very cool response. Thank you.
