I always loved coming back and watching this. I could never keep a slap groove going like this but id love to learn it and somehow adapt a fingerstyle to it
wooow that's sweet :D was recently looking into implementing chords into my playing but after watching this you realise what CAN be done - totally awesome, love it
Armin Metz I think the low action, also helps bring out tones out of the bass that you can't hear with it jacked right up. I'm an advocate for having enough string height to get a nice tone, but I think people forget to explore both low and high, low brings out a lot of colour that disappears when you set the strings too high. Beautiful playing, very inspiring!
Man, I've thought a lot and played a lot in your image Armin, but wow. What with all of these videos being real, If you're listening I'd kill to have your private secrets on how to be a great bass player.
mensch sorry, meine Deadlines hab ich diesbezüglich noch nie eingehalten.. aber ich geb nicht auf. War mit dem letzten Mix noch nicht zufrieden. Vielleicht wird dann das darauffolgende Bass Album minimalistischer;)
This sounds to me personally as if it's a bit all over the place, I feel it would sound much more mellow if it was perhaps played at a slower speed. But aside that, awesome slapping!
As far as I know Armin‘s Solo Record isn’t out yet. He’s a perfectionist.... I got a copy years ago and it’s amongst the best solo bass records ever made... but well... he’s too much of a perfectionist
+MADMANMUSICINC I do the same thing sometimes. He's just concentrating on his playing without looking at his bass. after a little bit your face just goes blank.
Nah that's not an "I am really really into this jam" face that's more of a "hmmm I wonder if I would get caught if I molested the 9yr old boy that's lives next door" face.
i mean the composition is nice and so are the ideas, but objectively the execution is sloppy and the sounds are often too pitchy to be enjoyable, at least you have something tangible to work towards :)...

his face is like "wts are my hands doing? where am I?"
hahahhaha
dude if my hands were doing that I'd honestly shout out loud, WHAT THE HELL ARE MY HANDS DOING?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!"
Or how about: "Dude, when is this brownie gonna hit?"
Armin Metz: Your gift of music is an inspiration to all who hear it, not just we bassist.
Armin é um grande baixista, ele tem uma carreira solo e toca em uma banda chamada: Nadishana Trio. recomendo a quem ainda não o conhece.
One of the best bass players around, hands down.
Amaizing! I cant stop listening it!
GREAT BASS PLAYER one of my favorites now
Armin Metz is a beast!!! love his playing and check out his other vids!
If I didn't play I would guess that there were about 3 instruments playing this. Next level!!!
I always loved coming back and watching this. I could never keep a slap groove going like this but id love to learn it and somehow adapt a fingerstyle to it
Flawless technique, lovely melodies more importantly...like all of your music!
one of the best line ever!!
wooow that's sweet :D was recently looking into implementing chords into my playing but after watching this you realise what CAN be done - totally awesome, love it
This is amazing. I loved it. Got inspired to practice. Thanks.
.einer der Besten..technisch überragend und groovt wie Sau..das können nicht viele, Hut ab !
excellent beautiful harmony
thanks for sharing Gregor!
btw for those who wonder where the downbeat is, the first note is a 16th before the 1
Awesome!!!
are your strings set low?
Jheric A
I borrowed the bass and put the strings lower, soundwise maybe a bit too low
Atrexiuh
no tabs so far but I´m open to work with someone who wants to make some

Great as always :) I can't wait for his album!
Wow. Just... wow.
very good sound and groove
Best One Yet!
fantastic musician!!!!!!
Great Tone. Excellent
Great playing!
Really needs to be recognised
So clear, powerful and melodic tone! Good job.
No other instrument can do exactly what a bass is capable of doing...and this guy seems to have a real gift that brings it out.
Kyla M. you could say the same thing about the kazoo
Amazing! Love it!
WOW awesome!
AMAZING!
Awesome.
I'M SO IN LOVE WITH THISSSSSSSSSS
o cara sabe que ele ta sendo fodastico!
very good sound.
My speakers cant handle this ;o
MsMrFreaky yes it's a bit too loud... try headphones, that should sound great!
fantastico !!!
Very nice composition, I enjoy listening to your music and to be honest I didn't know it was you in some of the things I was listening to.
awesome!
THAT. WAS. AWESOME.
I love the tone of your bass
Go, Armin, GO!!!
Fantastico
HOLY MOTHER OF BASS!
brilliant
AwesomE ArmiN ... THX A LOT ^_^
凄くカッコイイな
こういうの憧れる
I need to get this mans album asap!
Sick stuff. Gonna try it. =]
Love it :)
Sick bro!!!
Where can I learn this beautiful piece it has the perfect Latin feel
Good Shit !
It was Armin who showed me that the bass is not just an instrument to support the guitar in the lower register.
those jnco's? niiice
kai ehrhardt …técnica
Man, I've thought a lot and played a lot in your image Armin, but wow. What with all of these videos being real, If you're listening I'd kill to have your private secrets on how to be a great bass player.
from my point of view it´s about imagining/hearing music within and then finding ways to express it on an instrument
look at the enjoyment all over his face.
HOLY SHIT!
You are so cool)
The rhythm in those hands... I bet this guy is a pretty good conga player.
there's vid of him playing tablas on his channel
The best Armin!
What is the manufacturer of this bass?
Is there any tab for something like this, I'd love to study this technique.
amazing! he looks like the most awkward person in the world tho..... :)
tab ??
I wish I could slap with that rhythm :(
Wann kommt denn nun endlich das Solo-Album ? I like ...
mensch sorry, meine Deadlines hab ich diesbezüglich noch nie eingehalten.. aber ich geb nicht auf. War mit dem letzten Mix noch nicht zufrieden. Vielleicht wird dann das darauffolgende Bass Album minimalistischer;)
I never knew Anthony kiedis played bass
Is there a "How to play" this song anywhere? At least the intro/main riff?
pls search for Armin Metz ° Nawe ° main part explained
tabs? this is really beautiful
nice playing! how to get this tone? i wanna get this sound with my jazzbass. low action, fresh thin strings?
low action for sure
About 2 oclock on treble. Most slap style players use way to much treble
The bass sounds like a fender but the headstock is like a musicman headstock got flattened, what brand is it
i know him i know him... : )
Me likes, a lot :v
какой то он стрёмный>_
whats the bass make bro.sweet too
Carlton Jackson check the video description for details!
I didn't know Ashton Kutcher played bass!
This sounds to me personally as if it's a bit all over the place, I feel it would sound much more mellow if it was perhaps played at a slower speed. But aside that, awesome slapping!
how cool would that sound on flatwounds
tabs....
how can I purchase this song or album?
As far as I know Armin‘s Solo Record isn’t out yet. He’s a perfectionist.... I got a copy years ago and it’s amongst the best solo bass records ever made... but well... he’s too much of a perfectionist
as I can send my video? I am a musician and luthier, and I would burn to know me. Sorry for the English, I'm Latino and do not speak much language.
a verry cool concept, I personally think it doesn't sound good at all, but I admire the creativity
Paul gilbert playing bass.
And for his next trick he'll tune and intonate his freakin' bass.
er sieht aus wie Jako von Fewjar
Buzzy
Is it a little out of Tune?
Those pants... xD
his face is like anthony kiedis
5 string bass with only 4 strings? Interesting.
Where is your normal guitar?
Ashton Kutcher plays bass.
Truly intonated frets by the nut? They look unaligned.
Very very nice....but...out of tune
My god that bass is hideous
His playing is alright....but I can not stand to look at his face!
+MADMANMUSICINC I do the same thing sometimes. He's just concentrating on his playing without looking at his bass. after a little bit your face just goes blank.
Nah that's not an "I am really really into this jam" face that's more of a "hmmm I wonder if I would get caught if I molested the 9yr old boy that's lives next door" face.
+MADMANMUSICINC Well damn. That's scary...
i mean the composition is nice and so are the ideas, but objectively the execution is sloppy and the sounds are often too pitchy to be enjoyable, at least you have something tangible to work towards :)...
One of the ugliest basses I've ever seen.
I’m kind of hungry, what am I having for lunch??? I’ll throw down some bad ass bass slapping while I decide.
