I’ll be ever forget that Wynton masterclass at Capa.. 2009 my senior year..
This channel is such a gold mine for musicians who love groove focused music. Always some great humour as well as many things learnt!
This is really great. Thanks for the lesson and the PDF!
Thank YOU for watching!
That playing 1/4s with the metronome viewed as 1/4 note triplets is way cool. That’s one I hadn’t heard of. Bravo.
Thanks, Dave!
I don’t think I’ve ever tried playing triplets and quarter-note triplets in groups of two. Surprisingly tricky.
Vernacular affirmation: dis is da shit right heah! Great lesson😎Thank you😁
This is a cool drill, I would like to hear more from you on what a bassists contribution to swing is
These are always super helpful, PT. Good stuff!
Yeah!
I love this video.
This is great for any Bass player
I think that the challenge is practicing hearing as many of these subdivisions at the same time as possible. It isn't as much, play eighth notes and think eighth notes. Rather, it's like playing 8th notes while hearing quarter note triplets. Or playing 5 against 4... Or 3 against 4. I never got that far into Mike Longo's stuff and my DVD lessons don't work anymore... Steve Coleman seems to talk about the same on his m-base website, if I've understood him correctly. Playing odd meters against "common time" isn't advanced post bop stuff--that's the making of bebop and most likely what came before as well. Be cool to do another video on this grid. Maybe it's more like eating a sandwich. You get to know the taste of the fillings, the fixings, and the bread separately in your early days. My daughter just eats salami on one slice of bread. But If you always pick it apart your whole life, you aren't eating correctly. Gotta bit into all those subdivisions and feel them simultaneously like a circle of drums. Drum-wich? Don't miss out on that umami swing? Goes back to what Wynton Marsalis explained in the beginning of you video. Sounds like that's the ultimate goal. Eat that sangwich :) By the way, I loved your Tribe Called Quest deep dive. EXTREMELY interesting, all you better check it oooot!

I’ve been doing this my all life without knowing it … maybe because of my first love congas percussion
Sub divisions got it.
I already lost at half note triplet ...
I have a question
The question is living without you by pleasure.
These phones are crazy.
The song by the group pleasure living without you. I've been trying to ear play this song and play along with it can you help me
The bass is ALWAYS too quiet, jazz hates bass
