Have to give the props to Drumeo for create/impulse this great format. Elevates the players and the differences between everyone
Yes! I love the videos from Drumeo and I'm so happy that SBL is making it with Bass Player.
It's a brilliant format for sure. Definitely huge thanks to Drumeo.
Basseo!
what they say!
Now we need a cross over, where guys from sbl and drumeo play on a bassless ang drumless track.
Having a pro bassist hear a pop song w/o bass and make his own line on the spot??? THIS is one of the most FUN things you guys have ever done!!!!
Well they copied it from Drumeo... and it's more entertaining with a drummer TBH
@@stevemcqueen9144 Yes yes, Drumeo did it first... but the rest is just like, your opinion, man...
not sure if it's the instrument but mainly the choice of the song, I wouldn't care about a drummer playing toxic for the first time too lol@@stevemcqueen9144
@@stevemcqueen9144 More entertaining in your opinion. I really enjoyed this as much as any of the Drumeo episodes. I want other channels to start doing it. Guitarists pianists etc. It is just a very good format.
@@Stilton_Steak Well, Pianote (Drumeo's sister channel) did get Jordan Rudess to do this with a Jay-Z and Animals as Leaders songs if you were not aware.
Dude what can’t Tony Hawk do
I laughed so loud my kitchen vibrated, thanks for that 😂
Hahaha you killed me
so sad he was locked in jail for 40 years for a crime he didn't commit
Stahhhp
hahahaha
Toxic is one of the best pop arrangement ever, with a super cool bass, but also this one gave me goosebumps!
Toxic is also Brittney are her absolute best....hoooeey
Miike snow lead singer wrote the song for her. It makes sense if you listen to their music.
I've been saying this for years!
@@mikescully7523Cathy Dennis wrote Toxic, she wrote “i kissed a girl” and “can’t get you out of my head” as well.
As usual there is a Swedish guy (or two in this case) behind it
I love that Chris knows his craft so well that he didn't overdo it - he kept it simple but added accents. Less is so much more!
That's what I tell people about myself when it comes to anything.
Yeah I liked his version better
5:53 WOW! That is one of the sickest and smoothest fills I have ever heard.
I know.... What was that?????
💯💯💯
best part of the bass line
It was super greasy and nice
THAT WAS NASTY
What a cool cat. Love how he increased the complexity as the song progressed!
He's awesome, no doubt about that!
Musician here, I LOVE seeing big name guys do this! It humanizes them but at the same time showing the rest of us just how "monster" they are... A couple of passes through the form and he starts to add his own touches on embellishing what he is hearing on the track... Thanks for doing this Scott! Please excuse me for repeating from comments below, I was so blown away I didn't bother to read what had already been written lmao Keep on doing this stuff, you guys are awesome
🧡🧡🧡
I have no idea who started this concept, but I could watch variations of this with any instrument all day everyday lol
Drumeo 🤘🏻
you start the Drumeo ones, you'll be on a bender for a while. i just discover this one today, now i'm afraid LOLOL
It was a comment on a drumeo video for a “learn how to play” video where buddy commented they should try to make drummers play to a drumless track.
French horn, harpist, oboe - I want to hear all of them.
They should credit where they got this idea in the first place
This shows just how much bassists are underrated in general. They have so much feeling and flow.
I love how he doesn't feel the need to shove his entire technical repertoire into the song. His line serves the song, sounds unique, understandable, yet remains technical.
this is a video collab, why would he feel the need to do that anyway?
I'm so glad you guys picked this song! I've always professed how well-written/produced this song is. The little guitar fills and that bassline, the backing vocals...it's just *muah perfection. Chris friggin nailed it too!
🙌🏻🧡🔥 Chris crushed it for sure!
My jaw dropped how on the first hearing he nailed the mood so well that I was just feeling it. Killer song with killer bass, but also Chaney being killer.
Nobody is above pop music. This song is brilliant and can be reimagined in almost any genre and it still kicks ass. Great video.
As a newish, at 62, bass player, love hearing about the thought process for creating a bass line.
Hi, Keith.
You will have a blast when you eventually start doing this kind of thing. A lot of tracks on UA-cam where certain instruments are removed. You could find your favourite songs and interpret the bass lines your own way.
that volume slide at 4:03 makes me wish he recorded the original!
I was wondering what you were talking about, till I heard it lol that was pretty sick
I don't know how I've never seen such technic before
And THAT'S why he is one of the best in this business and work/ed with big names! Incredible ear and experience! And still after that HUMBLE GUY! Big lesson for me. Thanks SBL guys and gal!
Having been a musician for about 50 something years and then working behind the scenes in the industry professionally for another 30 years and gigging when I could, is that really good musicians are kind of nerds. They spent most of their time learning the instrument, listening to a Lot of kinds of music, and working hard to get to the point where you pick it up fast and you play it right the first time. Yeah it wasn't a whole lot of times been hanging out with the cool kids and getting wasted. I'm not saying a lot of good musicians didn't smoke a little or whatever but they made getting down that musical Road more important than Hot Boxing with the cool kids everyday. My production work I was a backstage Union stagehand. And what you said in your comment about being humble is absolutely correct. Playing music is not a pissing contest or a competition other than being a competition with yourself. And I found that the people that have a great grasp of the language of Music and play very well I really down to earth people and know that they can always be better keep learning and that as good as they are there's always somebody else out there that's mind-blowing. So in the end if you really love music give a damn put time in to become really adapted being able to do it make it sound good and have a great time
He nailed all these stops etc. in the 1st take after listening to it just once? 😮
Really amazing, even though I don't quite believe he's never heard the song before. Maybe not consciously. Before thry mentioned the original bass player, I thought, maybe he has recorded it himself back then and already about it 😅
To be fair the song is really predictable.
"I don't know this song, but it sounds like a song I need to know!" Those Ladies and gentlemen and everyone in-between, above and below, are the words of a smooth operator. A true A-lister touring machine!!! I think they put a gate in the original bass btw. Creative gating is fun!
Chris seems so chill and down to earth.
I learn so much just hearing you guys (and guests) talk about your approach. Chris appears to be a good and humble dude who happens to be a bass killer.
So much fun, and Chris did a great job coming up with a good part! Toxic is the only Britney Spears song I ever actually bought. I think it's one of the best-produced pop songs ever released. Absolutely stunning sound.
💯 agree, Toxic is and always be a banger...
You should listen to The album the song came out on called in the zone and it’s a masterpiece
One of the few pop songs of the last few decades that I actually enjoy. Chris did a fantastic job, and you're both right, that tone is _wild_ .
You should listen to more
@@randywhite3947 Indeed I should, but I just like exploring the fringes too much. You should listen to a song called "Doniphan, St. Paul" by a band called Nun, and tell me what you think. You'll be the 36th view.
Dude definitely earned his spot with AC/DC
In Sweden everyone says that the Producer Peter Svartling write the song Toxic and it was his big breakthrough album as a pop producer. Now he,s mostly known as a judge in the jury on the tv show Idol Sweden but sometimes he also appears as artist singing in tv shows like the masked singer. But maybe he wrote the demo version of the song toxic and finished the recording in collaboration with blood shy & avant as part of the production team and all of them have production credits for the song.
As a classic rock guy who plays bass, toxic is one of my all time favorite songs
The hooks! They're everywhere!
"Toxic" was always destined to be a hit, but giving it to Britney guaranteed it'd be one of the biggest songs ever.
Same here. I had a band that did it in a pop punk vibe. It's actually a killer song. Hit Me Baby is another one that crushes with big guitar in place of synth.
Ever hear Children of Bodom's cover? It slaps.@@crocholiday
Its most people's guilty pleasure wether they care to admit it or not
Best pop song of its era. You played it with so much respect for it.
One of my favourite bass players! He was one of the first session guys I heard use a pick and help me to realise how worthwhile it was to learn to play with one. Great video, folks 🙌
I love that run at 5:55.
Absolutely love the energy, class, enthusiasm, and vibe that Sharon brings to these videos. Absolute joy. Thanks Shaz and Ian!
Thanks for doing this! Chris Chaney is one of my all-time favorite players, I'm hoping to see more of him on this channel.
I loved the fill he produced in the spots where everything went quiet. Also loved how much sound he was producing toward the end of the track, it filled the proverbial room. So good!
I love this format. Can't wait for the next video. Keep it coming!
I love segments like this! I guess it’s a trend on music education channels, and it gets even those of us who don’t play instruments or even aren’t familiar with these artists, to be interested in the technical stuff, like a gateway drug!
I love when Drumeo does their version, and though I was already subbed to this channel from years back, the UA-cam algorithm figured I’d love this vid, too! 🤘
This series is SUPER interesting. It's so good to see how those pro players look at this exercise.
Have to admit, I'm really enjoying this series. It's great to see how good bass players come up with ideas, but it also shows that there are multiple ways to approach a song.
This was wicked. Great bass playing and such a nice dude!
INSANE VIDEO, this idea of having players cover songs they dont know is an awesome idea, never seen anything like it, very informative to watch - Chris is a psycho bassist very awesome
If you’re into drums, Drumeo does this all the time. It’s so cool!
@@RaidenSayaDrumeo and their sister channel Pianote also does it
Well that's why I'm listening to music is the the key. And listening to a variety of music is really the key. There's only so many notes you can either play arpeggios diatonic lines and throw in some chromatic links and then there's all the Rhythm parts. At some point or another you will have heard just about every combination of notes and beats they are in bits and pieces so when you listen to the song you're like oh that was that song oh that's right out of this you. You're remembering that you know it from another form more than your learning it after that it's about how good is your memory and what can you do to make your memory like an iron trap. Where the Mind goes the body follows. too many folks approach it as being the bass player. You're really great ones approach it as being a well-informed musician who plays on the bass. Like Jaco said, learn melodies you know the traditional bass parts are pretty simple do you understand but learning how to be melodic learning to be melodic breaks you out of that box. Plus he could go to the piano to write to work out the chord voicings and melody. Yeah once he had all that and it said all he had to do was go do his bass player thing
I like this guy he seems like a very down to earth kind of person and also a solid bass player.
He has a great feel for this song! Kudos to him & def awesome to hear his take on this classic pop song 👏🏼👏🏼
It's so refreshing to see a rock musician that knows and understands theory! What a cool and humble guy. ❤
LOVE Chris Chaney! This was so fun to watch, thanks everyone.
thank you for doing this for bassists!
I'm impressed with the quality of production. Lights, image, lens. Everything so beautiful.
This was really one of the more fun and challenging tunes for a bass player to show his instincts on,already a great bass tune track and his sensibilities and instincts were close for a first time listen on a tune that is really bass driven,bravo
Chris Chaney is one of my favorite bass players of the 90's. His sense of grove and harmony is epic. I can't help but wonder if he's ever studied jazz.
That's just what we bassists needed, a bass version of what Drumeo started! Keep it up!
ugh WOW this is one of my favorite songs and he just made me jam out like I've never done before!! SO good, so talented!! Thank you for this experience!!!!!!!!!!!
I got to see this man knock it out in Charlotte NC front row. Got a pick when it was over and a set list. What a show. I was blown away he is one hell of an artist. Thanks for the video!
I find it hard to believe ANYONE hasn't heard this song. It was everywhere when it came out and has popped up all over the place ever since. But, I guess I'll pretend to believe him for the sake of this video, lol
Idk, I'm a musician and it's really easy to get stuck in the music you're working on or the genre you specialize in, especially at the level he's at. He's probably heard it in public or in passing, but it's not fully unbelievable that he has never sat and listened to the song long enough to remember it.
First time hearing it… i probably heard it before in distance, but never listen… you’d be surprised of many people dont listen to main stream music
it's easy when u don't listen 2 the radio
I loved this one as much as the one you did with Justin (The Trooper - Iron Maiden). This is a great way to watch a musician's mind, how to catch the key by ear and using the theory applied in practice...it really inspire me man!!! AWESOME!!! Keep going with this dynamic videos
Glad you enjoyed it, more to come!
Amazing that Chris mentioned the tri-tone sub as that same thing happens in the bass line in Caught Stealing. During the turn around. It's one of the coolest part of the song.
i love these types of videos- professional musician you've never heard of hears the song once and basically turns in a part that would at the very least "work" for the song 🤯 and their part is always 🔥 the channel should do more of these and the "who do you nominate" structure is perfect!
It's one of the greatest pop songs of the last 20 years, easily top 5. Cathy Dennis is a marvel
I love this!!!!!!this kind of content its great!!!
Thank you so much SBL for breaking down this bass line ! Insane tone, I am sure Ian will be asked to warm up the HX Stomp soon to cover it !
He is such a rad person!! Tim would SLAY!
I love that Chris picked up the two things that I thought were missing in his play when he listened to the original - the tritone substitution before coming back to the root note in the choruses, and the walk up line in the verses. Only two things I thought I would have kept from the original over his interpretation in terms of what is actually played. I think everything else he did, including the playing during the pre-chorus breaks, was a better creative choice.
🔥🔥🔥
Somehow, this is the first time I doubt one of these videos. I could get Larnell not having heard Enter Sandman, it's metal, the guy's from a gospel background and was a little kid when the song was released, but I don't know about this. Toxic was literally EVERYWHERE in 2003, including every main radio out there. Rock guys usually know their pop stuff really well. Maybe he didn't recognize it and hasn't heard it in a really long while, but he's definitely heard this song in his lifetime.
He played bass with Alanis from 1999 - 2002, and in 2003 Carly Simon, Celine Dion, Michelle Branch.
As someone who tried my hardest to avoid Toxic in 2003 I find it impossible to believe he didn't hear it, given that he was playing pop music at the time.
My guess is he probably forgot about it
Wow, this guy is fantastic! Very educational, especially his ear for the note values when he's plucking. So exact. And a seemingly nice guy to boot.
So glad you guys are doing this!
(Pauses video to run off and learn the very cool "Toxic" bass line.) Back, please continue :) Seriously, these Drumeo-style videos are awesome. It's great to see the creative/thought processes of pros at work. You guys should team with Drumeo and have a drummer and bassist create their parts together for a song.
Seamlessly into Jane’s Addiction for a spell and now AC/DC? Whoa! 😮
AC DC bass lines are pretty pedantic and not extremely challenging except for when the rhythmical come in. Lots and lots of steady eighth notes on the root. I'm sure it pays pretty well a gig is a gig. Play the straight eighth notes for looong periods of time without you falling out of meter periodically is actually a pretty tough thing to do. That kind of stamina takes a while to build up. He doesn't really get any breaks not too many rests in their material. A lot of the people he's played with I've never really listened to their music. It's obvious to tell that he is a skilled professional musician. He's developed the discipline to to wherever his mind goes the fingers follow and there's not a lot in between all of that between
What a cool dude!
You gotta keep doing this, and also have the artist call out the next contestant! 🤘
as someone whos music taste span so many genres and sub genres, from pop to rock to hip hop to metal to blues, literally a bit of everything. this is such a great idea!!
I would like to see Jason Newsted as a challenger
Give this song to almost any gospel bassist, and watch your be mind blown.
It was a great take!
Truth!
The gospels are really great Style. It's played really cleanly, No Effects processing to hide your mistakes it is generally looked at through the lens of the jazz player. It just has a different Groove and feel than jazz, but the harmonic action going on come straight out of a of a jazz players mindset. Yeah there are some wicked bad gospel players. Well if I wasn't being a bass player I was working backstage and we were doing a gospel awards TV special to take to be rebroadcast. And the kicks the drummer was putting in we're awesome. The syncopation was incredible. But it dawned on me that that's where all the really groovy beats are going on is in the gospel scene. I'm at the drummer like that boy the bass player definitely has something to work with to play some really incredible lines
this was AWESOME! One of my favorite episodes.
First time viewer. Great video. Chris Chaney's improvisation literally had me smiling the entire time. Really fun. Such a great musician.
You cannot convince me that he's never heard this song before, but I liked his take on it
Toxic is literally one of, if not THE most famous dancepop songs of the 21st century. Possibly the only one more famous is Umbrella by Rihanna (which was also written for Britney). I dont believe he has never heard the song. Its a cultural zeitgeist all on its own.
I'd never heard it before. My one band mate had never heard Nirvana. We covered breed at a practice and he thought we had wrote it. He was really excited for our new song. We looked at him puzzled, and told him it was a famous Nirvana track and he said. "Oh right, I should probably listen to some Nirvana then". 🤣
@@Stilton_Steak not to be offensive, but are you guys American? If not, maybe I could understand... Have you seen the Toxic music video before? It broke the internet before social media was even invented.
@@nickcaveownsmysoul9333 No offence taken. Chris Chaney is old enough that I could believe he has never seen the toxic video online. If you're in Jane's Addiction you probably have better things to do with your day. I haven't seen that video more than twice and maybe never all the way through. I just think you are projecting your lived experience on to others. Maybe he had heard it before, but I could easily believe he hadn't.
I had a similar discussion with a friend a couple of years ago who wouldn't believe I didn't know who any of the characters from some popular show were because I didn't watch it. He literally said to me "you'er lying everyone has seen at least some of that show. Everyone it talking about it!". But I wasn't. Just because you think someone should have heard of something doesn't mean they have.
@@Stilton_Steak i guess once a piece of media reaches the statistic of 100 million, you basically figure it is ubiquitous enough that everybody is somewhat aware of it. Toxic had over 100 million audience impressions when it was initially released on radio in 2004 and over 1 billion streams on Spotify, it's presence in 21st century culture is as ubiquitous as Nintendo and the Game Boy. Now that you said you've seen the video before, I'm satisfied.
You are taking the word 'heard' to literally, whose usage is clarified by his following statement 'I should probably know it...'
If toxic plays in a Walmart or somewhere, but you aren't paying attention such that it never registers in a way your mind would recognize it...then colloquially, it is fair to say "I've never heard it" as if one is saying "I don't recognize this, I am not familiar".
If you want to talk about zeitgeist, maybe reference Jane's Addiction and how they were basically at the opposite end of said zeitgeist.....
Subbed and followed. Thanks Drumeo for pushing this channel my way. I'm a bassist at heart, been playing since 11, I'm gonna be 33 in August, plus, I feel this song is buried into my DNA with how much it was played so seeing Chris just rock out for second gave this a fresh spin. I honestly prefer it...
Thanks for this video! Great bass playing bro!
This is by far one of my favorite segments! So cool watching him kill this! ❤
Oh wow, thanks so much for watching Divinity!! We appreciate the warm words!! 🧡🧡🧡
Whooohooo, Divinity in the house 😮
Are you coming next?
That song was EVERYWHERE regardless if you wanted to hear it or not.This isnt his first time hearing toxic.Thats cap
I didn’t hear it for years. I’m not familiar with any of her music or any pop songs what so ever. To my knowledge still haven’t heard any lady gaga either. I’m a 60/70’s baby listen to my chosen playlist only 🤷♀️
LOVE THIS!!!!
Great dude and great Bass Line! He was so instinctively close to the original.
I could watch this all day. Chaney is so talented
This song is so bluesy, I never noticed
I’m a live sound engineer with almost 30 years experience, with the vast majority of it being deep into the world of what was popular at the moment as well as stuff waaaay out of the mainstream, generally dealing with breaking bands who would play 1,000 seat venues, but also including much bigger names as well. You d be blown away at who has covered this song. I once mixed a bluegrass band that did a KILLER cover of “Good Times, Bad Times”, and went right into Toxic with a bit of medley overlap to boost! They killed it. Fiddle, mandolin, acoustic, bass fiddle, banjo playing the overdriven organ parts. It was incredible. But I’ve mixed very surprising bands doing very surprising version of this song. It is, after all, a guilty pleasure. Wanna know one of my guilty please pop songs?
“I Want You” by Savage Garden. I’m into everything from Carcass to Sepultura to bad brains and Jane’s Addiction to Steel Pulse, Junior Brown, Ween, ABBA, Duran Duran and Dr. Dre and Public Enemy. But a great pop song is still a great song. Period. End of story. NEVER hate on music because of its claimed genre. To me, each genre is mostly crap. People think I’m a metal head, which is like taking the low hanging fruit. But I unabashedly call myself a music snob, and music anti-snob at the same time. I only like the best of the best metal. Carcass, Black Sabbath of course, Cathedral, Sepultura, Gojira, but this list will NOT BE followed with an etc. same thing with alternative. I love JA, Soundgarden, but NIN is hit and miss for me, with Pretty Hate Machine and the recent Hesitation Marks being works of art. But bands like Pearl Jam and Stone Temple Pilots are second rate as far as I’m concerned. Metallica wasn’t Metallica to me after And Justice for All, but Death Magnetic is a surprise masterpiece. The rest is junk. Even the almighty Jane’s Addiction put out some mediocre albums after their heyday. I keep hoping they’ll do like NIN, Carcass, and Metallica, and release a surprise masterpiece and shut everyone up. My highly relevant and professional opinion is that mediocrity sells, witness Hootie and the Blowfish, who went big by way of my venue, before I started, but same town, same joint, and they are friends of mine, but how that music went so big remained me of how unpredictable fans and music can be. Bands like Train and Jason Mraz were f’ing horrible live. The Wallflowers opened for another band first time I worked with them, and they blew the headliner off the stage. I honestly felt bad for them. Same goes for another surprise. I mixed Sugar Ray, and Smashmouth on the same night, both having huge hits like two weeks later, and BOTH were killer live! Maroon Five and Jason Mraz were tour support for I think Ben Harper, and Maroon Five looked like seasoned vets, easy to work with, and laid waste to Mraz, who was a prick, as well as his shitty band. I’ve mixed incredible bands in an empty room, and mixed bands who once had huge hits to empty rooms before, and after their heydays. The country artists were always the most gracious and generally professional bad ass musicians, but the music was so forced, stuck in guiderails of convention, with few exceptions. Jason Aldean rocked. Zack Brown is top notch and the nicest guy, and their tour manager always goes out of his way to come say hi when I’m at one of their gigs. Too cool. So many bands, so much crap went big, so much gold went nowhere. Oh well, …….
Awesome! And props to whoever edited this Video
I loved how he praised the creativity and performance of the player.
Like the 100th video of a musician that haven't heard a song that 99% of population have.
It's literally impossible to not have heard this song before.
This is a great series. Keep em coming!
True talent! Love this song`s bass line, both original and his version! Cheers!
I don't believe he's managed to avoid this song for 20 years. They play it in grocery stores.
He shops at Whole Foods 😂
Simple explanation. He was always too wasted to remember.
When the cover is better than the original...
This is not better than the original
That lick is so tasteful, love it! Awesome playing altogether of course
Toxic is the best pop song in the last 30 years imho, as hard as that is to say, it's just a perfect track, you can't mess with those strings!
Great video and great job Chris!
Agree, I remember people trying to clown on it only to start singing it a few minutes later. It's a great song.
I feel the original is better, don't get me wrong here he played great but i think the pam mutes disturb the flow.
And I seriously hate the girl's over the top expressions, feels quite unnatural tbh.
He's never heard the song?????? Come on
Yep everyone has heard this 😂
@@hays9008 I didn't say everyone has heard it. But it was a famous song by a famous singer in 2004 when media wasn't as fractured as it is now. He's also a musician would would have been in his 20s/30s when the song was out. So I'm surprised he never heard the song as all
He could be a busy touring musician when the song came out. It’s understandable why he hasn’t heard of the song Toxic before. The bands music genre he played for doesn’t really mix with pop. It’s highly unlikely Britney Spears and his bands would play in a same music festival.
Nothing’s impossible.
I've heard that quite a few big songwriters avoid listening to popular music for legal reasons (along with other considerations for "purity of the art"). If they ever get sued for copyright infringement they can honestly say they don't listen to radio.
I adore this format. So much fun!
This is a great format for a video, I'm not sure why this came up for me but I'm super glad that it did. Sharing with my friends who are much more musically inclined than I am.
I'm not going to agree with someone else that i wish this was the original because I think it's cool that both exist.
i'm sorry, but ...has he lived in a bunker for the past 20 years ???
No, he's a professional musician. We only pay attention to the music we're performing next weekend. 😅
I know that this song exist but it is the first time i listen it. When it is not your generation, your style, your vibe, some music just go next to you
This is the video that made me subscribe to the channel!!
This is great and I love how musicians just love music and don't seem to care about the genre.
Wow. This is so cool. What a talent. Great job! It just kept getting better.
never heard it? in a coma? it's not like he's 12.i call bs
I never heard this song until all the news about Britney’s conservatorship. Seriously, it can happen, especially when you’re not in her demographic and you don’t care.
these over the top reactions to just normal bass playing is pretty ridiculous.
These are fascinating videos. keep them coming±!
Honestly love this content!! Love drummeos stuff, but being a bass player myself this is golden.
This was great! Keep doing these!
