PLAY SLAP BASS LIKE A BEAST... with Henrik Linder of Dirty Loops
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2018
- So this lesson is gonna be a bit different...
Why?
Because I've got Henrik Linder (the amazzzzing bassist of Dirty Loops) in the hot seat with me.
Now, you've likely heard Henrik and Dirty Loops before... because they're MASSIVE and created a global phenomenon of jazz fusion bands recreating pop songs, in a super cool way.
And, if you have heard him play before, you'll already know that Henrik has blazing slap bass chops!
In this lesson you're going to hear him break down his exact approach to slap bass...
And look out for the "double thumb / double finger" thing he does... it's insane!
Don't worry though... I do get him to slow it down for ya, lol ;)
As always, see you in the shed...
Scott :)

Goes legendary.
"it's still Sloppy" - Legend Henrik Linder.
@Rigorous Bass Yes.
@@Mustafa-ou8qs Yes
@JORAIDER Yes
doog yes
@Rigorous Bass He is Legendary
2 things stood out- his amazing technique, and his humility...not a lot of ego there considering how he plays...
It definitely makes up for that awful hairdo
@Me you and the Animal hahaha because he is fast and sick AF LMAO Not a lot of people can play a note let alone follow a scale. This guy is playing with rhythm, technique and precision x100 speed.
@Me you and the Animal You don't know shi-#&t..bout
@Me you and the Animal Because he is an absolutely amazing bass player, song writer and musician in general. Sure he isnt world famous but considering how he plays he should be full of himself if he was as arrogant as mainstream crappers, instead he is really humble
@Free speech for the dumb is there that much pain in your life?
"i'm not victor wooten level"- that humbleness tho, it refreshes my soul
The humbleness of this guy is off the charts. Spoiler alert. He is victor wooten level. XD
Spazzsticks you're funny!
Just to let you know, the word is "humility". I know, it's not something a humble person would say, but I'm really only telling you so you'll know.
kiki the gerbil no. no, he’s not
but then again, nobody is.
Guy slaps so hard he bent his frets
lmao
i'm ashamed to admit this cracked me up, thumbs up to you sir
Underrated comment lol
@@cstrebe1: you're mistaken, sir. henrik's mattison basses feature what they call "true temperament" frets, which are not "fanned" at all. an example may be seen at mattison's website: www.mattissonbass.com/basses/series-iv-henrik-linder-signature/
note that the nut, bridge, and pickups are perpendicular to the strings. not "fanned."
@@cstrebe1 /wooosh
Very humble...
kaya mo yan kuya Yow? HAHAHAHAHA
Ayunoh
It’s not popular and liked trait...
@@JaQba91 amazing right? I did not expecg it either
Paturo ngaaa
To all you guys oozing with pride....take note. This man is insane off the charts good, and he's humble and kind! Lessons.
Linder is honestly one of the most impressive bass players I've ever had the pleasure of listening to, and yet he remains so humble. It's refreshing.
Shane's Book Corner you should check out thundercat too
And Anthony crawford
ethan ash a year later this comment sent me down a rabbit hole of Cat becoming one of my favourite musicians. Thank you kind stranger
@@The300ZXGuru Charles is a beast but you don't have to shit on other musicians cause that just makes you look immature
"I'm not on Victor Wooten level"....humble guy. Idk why but that brought smile on my face. This humility in you will make you surpass even the greatest there is.
James McAvoy, great interviewer and even better actor. Linder is an absolute beast.
Hahahahaha
Haha, during the intro I knew that he looked like someone but couldn't tell exactly who... thank you!
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Looks absolutely nothing like him
"That took some practice, and it's still sloppy". This pursuit of the craft is evident with his mastery of playing this instrument. Inspirational. Thanks for sharing this.
Yeah i absolutely love his Humility. His playing is amazing.
Henrik is an example of a consistent bass player. Practice makes perfect. That's it.
Cool that he mentioned Wooten... Before I even knew about Dirty Loops I was already a huge fan of his. And to be honest, Henrik, you are on his level, if not technically, definitely musically and creatively. Big fan of you both!
I enjoy how down to earth Henrik is. He’s the kinda guy you’d just wanna go have a coffee with.
Or a beer
I met him four years ago, he's definitely practiced his english.
I think more than his technical level (which is already masterful) is his creativity and fluency. The way he strings the techniques together. It's like shred guitar, stringing ideas fluidly to tell a story
Amazing that he still pays respects to Victor Wooten. They are both Bass Gods!
I'd love to see a video like this with Clay Gober of Polyphia, I dont know if he'd be up for this sort of thing but it would be really cool to sort of get some insight into his style of pick slapping and his process for composing that super technical style of line.

yessssss
It's not a phase, mom
Vincent Koster exactly what i was thinking
spot on
yup.
love him
Haha !!! This guy is so cool and so talented !!! let him look like how he wanna look like :)
Only appropriate to give this a thumbs up👍🏽
Bill Sherrington it’s only right if it was a double thumbs up ;)
Why thumbs up when you can thumbs uh
Inwards
Towards the strings
What a player. I really enjoy hearing him. He also always seems very happy to try to impart things he’s learned in every interview and demo I see him do. Fantastic.
“I’m sure you’ve all heard of ...Dirty Loops”. I hadn’t until I saw this video and thank you for bringing them into my life. Amazing band and amazing bass player!
I was fortunate to see them live a few years ago, excellent live show.
I love that he takes inspiration from Wooten and Miller, and thanks to taking on both of those inspirations, he gets on his very own level. There’s Wooten level, Miller level and now Linder level. Man’s an absolute genius and his modesty and humility is so amazing, I don’t even think he knows how amazing a player he is!
Great and humble musician! What a struggle to slap on a 6string and to mute all the open strings especially low B, a nightmare.
Try stainless strings with piezo pickups. ; )
@@badnoodlez he does tapping as well
Guy is indeed an absolute beast. I have no idea how I missed them but will definitely be giving his band a whirl. Awesome video, thanks a lot
10 months late to the party but check out his work on Meinl's G.E.M project. Absolutely phenomenal. Better than his dirty loops stuff imo, and I LOVE his dirty loops stuff. Matt Garstka on drums, Eldar Djangirov on keys. Amazing project
@@pathaleyguitar9763 sadly that project is only available on UA-cam...really want it on Spotify.
I just can't getting over the image of Henrik Linder blowing his hair out of his face at the end note of the slap thing in the dirty loops video 🤪
Such a humble person. An absolute mastermind of bass! I love Dirty Loops and can't wait to hear their new music. Henrik we want to hear it! :)
It was particularly interesting seeing him explain the slap technique, which, if you think about it, he doesn't use much when he plays, and that's why I love the guy. Most modern bassists OVERUSE the slap technique. He has a rich tone, yet subtle, and phenomenal phrasing. Henrik Linder is my favorite bassist.
HENRIK! I've known him for SO many years and has been an inspiration.
Poor boy! Playing that bass with the croocked frets! He deserve a proper bass.. Let´s start a crowdfunding campaing!
Tomás Giavitto i’m still waitingg for someone to show up with that comment.......
He would probably be worse trying to get used to it
Never a passionate musician would talk like that!You just spoke like an ignorant but you can be better than that tomas
@@NewVoiceSound It's a thing called irony :)
@@SantaCecilie It's alright he's new
You should get les claypool on the channel
Seriously. This needs to happen. Les is a legend.
@@tombfoot ikr im sure he would vary interesteing to have on the show
I highly doubt that Les would be a douche on the show. The interviews ive seen of him have showed him being a fairly chill dude.
Odi Et Amo Did you have a stroke while typing this.
That would be amazing
nowadays it is natural to see amazing guys reach a unique level at 20s or 30s .back then there was no internet ,no youtube no info on techniques etc.Linder is amazing ,he is a true virtuoso .He took the techniques and developed his own ...this is truely awesome!
Can we get a tutorial on how to do his hair?
Well you see, you just start to bald naturally and then you just shave what's left to one length to fully embrace baldness. Oh you mean Henrick...
Best. Comment. Ever!
xD
He does his hair with a weed wacker.
Jyswoo to piss you off
He's so ridiculously good.
This guy is amazing-dirty loops-WOW, WHAT A GROUP! I love listening and watching these guys. All of them seem very humble and incredibly talented!
!!!! Wow! Slap hammer hammer, pop hammer hammer... Badass! Then the double thumb pluck pluck with the fingers. That's wacky!! I love it
*magic on the bass*
Scott: w-w-w-wait what?
Him mentioning Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten shows his history and humbleness : Larry Graham, Bootsy, George Johnson too......
everytime time i look around music videos (and especially good ones) i am amazed by the good vibes in the comments.
Best thing about SCOTT is his attitude and sense of humanity .. keep it up Scott
That dude is nuts. I admire his talent and I’m a guitarist.
I was watching this on headphones at midnight and during the intro, I'm like "WTF are my kids doing up right now?!?" Then, I paused and realized it was dead silent here. LOL
Absolutely love Henrik's playing!
Im so much in LOVE with these two musicians!
one of the best bass players in the world!
Sasuke?
A 2019's Sasuke
No that's 2007 Sasuke

Henrik is a true player! Humble and into the music always!!!
So many young talents out there... it's amazing... I started in the days when James Jamerson, Duck Dunn, Monk Montgomery were the only electric players you could point to... then Larry Graham, Bootsy, Johnson Bros.,then of course I heard Stu Hamm and HE was nuts! But when I heard Stanley he was it for me... I became a Stanley clone until I heard Jaco then the world stopped... He was already doing everything I had dreamed of doing! The world didn't really start up again until Victor came along. Then I started hearing about cats like Andrew Gouche wno was in my field which at the time was gospel (90s)... But now these young cats: Henrik Linder, Mohini Dey, Esperanza Spalding, Joe Dart are just taking it into the future so much bass... I love it! Here's to another 40 years on 4 strings baby!
FYI: The video actually starts at 1:17
Introducing Edward Scissorhands on bass. Absolutely brilliant
Thats some serious hours of practice and hard work in action there. Thanks for showing it.
i am honoured to watch best bassist and enthusiast in the world.. watching u guys made realize that there's more for me to learn about my bass.. lol watching from Canada here. thanks guys. cheers
Шотладский Прилепин! Офигеть!
I would love to see a collab with him and Victor Wooten! That would be amazeballs!
Cool, humble.
Talent, passion and a lot of time to practice.
Henrik is absolutely amazing.
Johnny Sins now trying a guitar.
Haha
🤣😂
I like how he says...and then you just...
And I'm like WTF?
Dude is so humble! Love it :D
Best young bass player when it comes to both technique and musicality.
Larry Graham (sly and family stone)created the technique and rarely gets credit.
Robert Trujillo 20 years ago
2:36 'And then you can just like play:'
*Proceeds to absolutely shred.*
No, sir, I cannot. *You* can play that, and I can just watch in amazement.
Humble! That's rate with a skill set like that! Impressive ❤️
The frets on his bass wiggle - how significant is that?
"And then you can just..." (speed goes up to eleventy)
No, no, I really can't...
E L E V E N T Y
Hey Scott - marry Christmas to you! I love your lessons! I studied jazz bass on high school, what ever - but I still can use your lessons very well. It always brings new thoughts to watch things different! I always suggest my students to watch your videos. There is so much to learn from, even when you're already a professional. This double thump plug plug technic, took me 4 years to develope properly. But you really got to modify your bass to do this technic. This plate under the strings help a lot to keep the right distance for your right fingers. After a lot of practice you might don't need it anymore, because the space becomes natural! But at first place, I would recommend all students who wanna learn this technic, to modify their bass by a proper guitar builder. After all, I just wanna say thank you so much for your channel! It's always a step further for me, to watch your videos! Thank you Scott! Thank you!
He's lovely. And amazingly talented, of course.
It’s a true temperament guitar guys. The frets aren’t botched
Logan Searle it’s not Fodera. It’s matisson
Daniel Sing eh, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it’s a Fodera. It looks like one.
2:55 "That took some practice to do- it's still sloppy." Take note, kids.
Love his playing!
I'm drooling ..and I'm not even a bass player ...terrific!!
I can’t knock this guys skill, but I don’t like slap, or the over use of slap. It’s fine if it’s done to accentuate key moments in songs (think Faith No More’s We Care A Lot, Duran Duran’s Rio etc) but I just never got songs that use loads of it, always sounds messy to me even though it’s technically difficult to do well.
John Taylor is a whole different level.
Duncan Garvey it doesn’t sound messy to me (at least with simpler lines) but it’s all a matter of opinion.
I have to agree. I'm a huge Mark King fan, I love slap bass because of him. Although Victor Wooten is doing all his fancy, technical stuff it does absolutely nothing for me, infact I find it less impressive because it's just some horrible noise. This guy makes me think the same thing.
Its akin to shredding... Technically marvelous but overused as a show off tool amd rarely has an actual place outside of very specific recipes.
Unless you're buddy hankerson or something... Then its just funky and awesome.
thats fine bro music is just like food, even if a 5 star chef cooks it if you dont like it you dont like it or eventually youd acquire taste for it
True Temperament Fretting System?
Yes!
So the other players in the band should have true temperament instruments. Otherwise it makes no sense.
@@bernardvoss its fine their band doesnt have any other stringed instruments haha
But it doesn't apply to stringed instruments only.
bernardvoss True temperament brings you closer to equal temperament. He plays with a keyboard player. It makes sense.
2:53 "Yeah, of course, that took some pratice to do" Understatement of the decade 😂
RAW TALENT. HENRIK PUT IN THE WORK.
Have you told him why 6 string basses sucks? 😉
Okasal No they don’t
You... just stirrin up trouble 😆
oh snap LOL! shots fired!
They DO??? 😳 Oh no!!! Darn it. 😕 Why didn't anyone tell me this before...
Dirty Dan interesting, you must not have watched the actual video “5 reasons why six string basses suck,” or you would’ve known that he also likes six strings.
01:54
you're welcome
Ouf... crazy and marvelous !
Dirty Loops, brilliant talented band
Eu não entendi porra nem uma do que falaram...
Mas, pqp... esse cara toca de mais!!!
A linguagem musical é Top e universal!!! ✌🏼😁
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Ele fala de como Marcus Miller informa sua técnica de slap, e de como transcreveu licks de música country para usar no baixo. Também fala de como usar cordas soltas dentro de determinadas escalas
Sería genial si ponen subtítulos en español ☝🏻
Like this guy..very humble👍
Now I don't play bass, but even I can tell this guy is outrageous.
1:45 looked at the neck and for a second there I thought my monitor was broken...
show this to Davie504
Davie is average bass player, nothing special.
I think it's unfair to say he's 'average'.
He's no Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten, Flea or Carol Kaye. But he is definitely a solid all-round bass player.
@@bramgroenhof yea, he is solid, but nothing special. Funny videos, but he can do more if je want. And my personal opinion as a bass player is that he has terrible technique O.o
@@FlashW22 you must be fucking victor wooten to say that davie 504 is just average you sack of shit.
@@tobivon2074 nope, Im just bass player with experiences, not just home sheep who doesn't know, what is easy or hard on the bass ;)
Youa are Genius, Great Master of Electric Bass !!!!!
I asked him for tips on IG and he replied. What a good guy
Reading these comments, I learned that bassists are just as insecure and miserable as guitarists.
but with bigger d*cks ;)
I stopped reading the comments after 30 seconds bc of the jealousy
primusfan6661 see? you just proved the OP’s comment was true.
Having played guitar for 20+ years before switching to bass about 2 years ago, yeah... that is correct
@@JoeyBullet222 Not dicks. BALLS! :-D
calling Davie504
like to see Davie504 play with some one
Benson Roxas yes! I was thinking the same.
YES PLEASE!!!!
I've been trying so hard to get Davie to see henrik
He wont because davie mainly plays 4 string
Nice slap tone and the techniques are beautiful Stay safe and God bless.
You're a beast man!thanks for your videos
I think next one must be Steve harris😄
Thats must be a lot of $$
hahaha
Nice! What a strange fret work there? :D
It's a system called the true temperament frets, Because the intonation of straight frets is flawed very slightly and with true temperament frets it is spot on but only in a specific tuning string thickness and everything.
Reinier van zwieten so it’s basically getting every note on the fretboard to be perfectly in tune without any hiccups? That sounds like an expensive bass to me. I wish I could afford it.
Reinier van zwieten but then I think in most full band context you won’t notice the flaws in a straight fretboard, so most people don’t worry about it.
And it's only a solution for solo playing. True temperament only works for a given key, and as soon as you play with an equal temperament instrument (i.e. any modern instrument), you aren't in tune with them.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's fascinating, and academically pretty cool. But wildly impractical.
Dave Thompson right. I would say most gigs I would come in contact with for standard bass playing won’t call for such an instrument. I would probably get fired if I don’t use or aim for a standard fender jazz or p bass sound.
As always super amazing
O melhor Slap, o mais rápido ao mesmo tempo bem explicado...muito top o melhor de todos, ainda não vi nenhum baixista fazer assim
It's so good to see a former emocore addicted rehabilitated by the Jazz Church.
LMAO
What is going on with his frets? It's freaking me out.
Same! Anybody got any idea?
Apparently Curved(Temperament) Frets are for more accurate intonation. It is offered by Mattisson Bass(the he is holding) as an option I believe
His Luthier is a drunk.
His frets are drunk
I think it has the same concept with how James Taylor tune his guitar. This time, it's on a bass and applied on frets.
Thanks great advise and tips to a new bass player
Love this guy, so much underrated
