Rabea
I'm going to rip the audio from this and listen to it on repeat! holy crap that was amazing
Rabea Massaad You deserve all the praise you're getting. I was so excited when I saw this video!
Chris Yoder that is a very good idea. i will tell my Band. best stuff comes when just improvising and jamming.
I appreciate the rig info, but I really want to know about that Darkglass branded cab that Dave is using!
What camera and lens were used???
Rabeas got riffs for days
Seriously! His shreds are always so tasteful too! Not wanky useless noise
who knew from the first second that was a strat making that sound? :D
Yeah obvs
I was kind of hoping it was his Rita relic he used in the previous jam since it was the first time i heard them play this kind of epic jamming style.
He sold Rita a while back :(
I knew instantly it was a strat neck pickup, the neck pickup with a british crunch and a bit of tube screamer is one of my favorite tones of all time
He did?!?
"Oh hi, we jammed a little" -> still sounds tons better than what most bands put on records.
I'd pay for an album filled with 'we were just having a jam' things from you guys.. especially with that Strat tone :O
6:53 - Smooth move, Ben. Smooth.
Nah m8. It's all about 10:10
Jeezus... and that was just a jam session. Our jam sessions sound like beginners 8th grade band practice in comparison. Holy crap that was absolutely stellar. Put that one up on iTunes.
Stratomacaster HEY as an 8th grader who jams with my "band" weekly I am offended
As a person who is regularly offended, I am an eighth grader.
Capten lmao nice one
ye dude you love it
im in 8th grade and my jam sessions TOTALLY sound like this
I know y'all do Dorje and Toska... but guys y'all got something here. This was amazing.
...Brother?
bwahahhahahaha
My God coming back to this 5 years later this is an unbelievable organic jam session captured on film. The drummer completely cooling down the song and then intensifying it is amazing. The control in that is just mental.
My favorite thing as a musician. Just jamming and making magical moments as a band. Even better when you're actually able to record those moments like this. I can listen to improvised music like this indefinitely.
DomSchu yes, i totally agree.
DomSchu Amen
Agreed! I miss it.....
When I look back at my favorite memories in life, many of them are these moments. Just grooving with friends, and just fuckin nailing it for a period of time. Getting done and being like, “Welp, should have recorded that, cuz we’ll never remember the licks.”
This Should happen once a week
Agnaralator Agreed, this is just awesome to hear and watch, especially from the perspective of someone who's in a band.
this shoudl happen once a week, in case someone did not understand.
Agnaralator honestly if I knew how to mix like this I'd do it
Agnaralator This should happen 7 times a week.
Now thats a great idea!
This is absolutely INCREDIBLE
That was HUGE and incredible. I could listen to this stuff for hours, or at least for a full CD (hint, hint).
Dave with that old school Peavy Bass
And the sustainiac 😂
Justin Anderson what is a sustainiac?
william chassé a magnetic system built into the electronics that provide unlimited sustain and harmonic feed back. haven't seen one in a bass tho, that's cool.
MrTaterWedges basically what he said, with two modes either echoing that one note or providing a harmonically similar note if it. Synester Gates uses one in his solos a lot, you'll usually hear it when a note goes into feedback quite I quickly.
thanks
By the way - please play strat! You just sound the best with a strat.
Great job everyone, I loved the varied dynamics of the rhythm section. 10/10
bushibayushi switch the Lil 59 on the ML-1 Pro with a true single coil
That was fucking incredible. Chemistry between you is off the charts.
Dear God that was beautiful! I've watched that 15 minute jam video about 200 hundred times. This is very welcome haha
Strat fits so well with your overall sound.
You should ALWAYS play a Strat
Virtuosity by the ton. Olympic gold jammin.
Do Jimi and Rabea know something about afros that we don't?!?
Plot twist: Afro's don't actually exist. They're just a ruse to hide the giant brain extension which is purely dedicated to music
Danny James Afros' and Strats'
If u consider dimebag ,slash,rabea and jimi as a super guitar team then it makes sense.Big hair ftw.
CAn't believe this is 3 years old now. Been watching it at least once a month since it was posted!
It doesn't get much better than this. Great licks, great drumming, great bass, really really like this. Drums sound great, guitar tone great, bass great
Guess what I think this is GREAT
Sounds awesome!!! Lemmy is smiling down from above, approves of the drummers shorts!
I literally just finished watching their "15 minute jam" video now this pops up! Man today is a good day! Will there be a glasses throw this time, let's wait and see!
Binning the dreads was a great move by dave, looking good
I liked the Dave dreads. What's next Bea w/ no fro?!? I can't take much more! ;)
Bea's hairline is receding... eventually, the fro may go!
Richard Harrold Hahahah well... I think the fro will be around for many more years before that happens. My hairline has probably receded about as much as can be expected for someone my age. Everybody's hairline moves back with age!
Ha, maybe, I guess I'm lucky in that my family don't seem to suffer hair loss at all. My dad's just turned 60 and still has the same thatch of natural brown hair he had at 20. Lee Anderton doesn't seem to have lost any hair either, he still looks exactly the same as he did a decade ago - and of course there's Mr Bouffant himself, Mick Taylor! Danish Pete is totally ageless too...
I've played guitar for decades and heard many jams and I can safely say, that was epic.
Kudos, gents, kudos.
Yeah, but you do it big. Sun, ship, slam. Really loud noises and bad sunburn.
@@skullcrusherwillpay I aim to please.
I've always been fascinated by drummers, its so interesting to me to watch a proficient drummer navigate the kit. Ben hits the hi hat with his left hand, which has always been an instinct of mine (presumably because i'm left handed!). Perhaps i'll stop fighting that instinct and hit the hi at with my left hand as it feels comfortable! love the jam guys, groovy as all hell. That strat sounds amazing Bea!
I love how at 8:34 the camera pans from Dave being all chill on the bass to Ben going bonkers on the drums
Hi Bea - I'm a 55years old guy from germany starting again with guitar after 20 years or so - I'm lightyears away from your talent - but you are a great inspiration.
You three must stay together - your are "one" :-)
That was so good I think I'm pregnant. ;-)
Rabea Massaad that name as you can't forget because it's one of greatest guitar player on the 21 century!!
Huge respect. I do love see you in France ;)
good sh!t started out Vaughn then went Pink floyd
I was going to say the same thing. Awsome
With a little bit of 'Achtung Baby' U2 in there as well
I would say there’s a bit of Frusciante in there too.
The perfect blend. I had this connected to the stereo in my shop and all the guys wanted to know who you were. I'm bringing them to the dark side, and loving it.
Loved it! That shouldn't just be a jam. Put it on an album as an instruMENTAL.
Holy shit......why can't I hit the 'like' button a million times. Rabea you have so many different styles in your locker it's unreal. Kudos to Ben and Dave too 👍🏻👍🏻
Rabea, you are 1 microphone away from becoming SRV.
Dave & Ben, you guys are just killing this groove.
I tried to stop tapping my foot a couple of times and couldn't do it.
Great jam guys. Rabea,so great to hear your emotion shining through on the strat using an overdriven tone.Beautiful flowing runs.Great job :)
well, now i really wanna put a sustainiac in my bass
I'm still watching this every day 😂 I can't get over that wild section of the solo between 7:50 and 8:10, I sit in my room every day trying to re-create that. Then I cry. 😭
I continuously find myself returning to this video. I could listen to jams like this for days!
groovyest and bluesiest fuckers in the entire uk! i just had my mind blown guys great jam!
AMAZING!!!! MORE MORE MORE!!!
One of the vids that actually deserves the "10 HOURS OF" treatment....... Thanks to UA-cam, faith in new music has been restored. So many great bands out there when you turn off the radio and search for it on your own.
Holly Sh*t ! Even 4 years after, this jam is dope. Sooooo gooood !!!
i know its personal taste but that was 100 times better than any Dorje tune ;)
Man I fucking love you guys. This is way too good to have just been a jam; this is like a fully composed piece of art. The way Bea goes from these beautiful ambient runs into fully fledged erection-inspiring solo's...Dave's fat (dare I say...Phat) tone which I damn well love...and then the camera pans to Ben and he's like *"AAAAAAHHH I LOOOOOVE THIIIIS"* as he smashes the shit out of his drum kit (seriously love his energy)
I swear when Rabea reaches for a guitar the fretboard must say quietly under its breath “crap not this guy again”. Rabea thrashes the fretboard end to end. There is no dusty end. Playing is so creative and brutal yet powerfully beautiful.
the fact that his jams are absolutely FLAWLESS, no mistakes, literally smooth throughout, is mind boggling.
Make this a series
AWESOME
This the style you guys need to stick with!!
First; as much guitar music as I listen to, I can't believe I'm just now finding this. This is incredibly good stuff, and like many of the other commenters, I would by an album of this kind of stuff right now. This is some of the best music I've heard in awhile. Top notch jams. Looking forward to searching out more of this band. Friggin' excellent. All the players absolutely kickin'.
You guys should release a whole album of just jams like this. Because this is god-sent.
I would love to hear you guys do a desert stoner rock jam with fuzz to blow our minds.
Oh my god. Just yes.
YEEEESSSSS
Liking the TOSKA sound these days...!
Rabea on a Strat is my favorite Rabea.... Just soooo good!
The thing that stood out to me right away was the cool muted sound of Ben's snare! It makes it sound massive and tight.
Love the jam! Bea is amazing and Dave has some of the best bass chops (musically) in the biz. Gotta get more Toska.
Potential bonus track for the next Toska album...!? :D
Or EP, whatevs!! :P
Please realise this as some sort of downloadable thing! This and the jam u did ages ago r like my drive music but can't play them off UA-cam
You can always just rip them off youtube
One of the most cohesive build ups I've EVER heard!! Fantastic!
Something about Bea with a Strat - it seems to unlock his inner lick beast! Please do more of this funk stuff - absolutely amazing! Must have watched the 15 min jam with Rita >20 times! World class performance chaps!
Man dave looks so different , how many times did he nearly get whip lash from trning his head to qickly withot the dreds weighing him down
Coincidentally Reverb puts out a handful of Pink Floyd-related videos.
I can not remember the last time I had goosebumps for 10 minutes straight. And it wasn't just "This is nice" it was "Holy shit balls, this KEEPS getting BETTER!!!!" as the bumps get bigger. And mad props to Ben for timing those changes so perfectly, you can really tell you 3 have known each other for a long time! I hope to hear a lot more of this!
Here's a prime example why Toska should exist - they're damn great musicians! Strat tone for DAYS, son!!
hey rabea, are there any particular scales you would recommend to learn and keep 'in the toolbox?' you seem to go all over the place, but again, it could be just me being unfamiliar
C0nnie Just learn everything you possibly can, and then play for a long time. Teach your ears to make nice music, teach your mind to learn nice music very quickly.
Just know all your scales in all their different positions - learning all the modal shapes helps a lot
Oh my fuck 3:00 was filthy.
Rabea's use of chords for solos is astounding
This is my new favorite video on the internet, no contest. These guys traverse easily through almost every genre WITHOUT EVEN REHEARSING! How does that even work?
PLEASE teach us that intro riff !
Dave
These jam vids are some of my favorite. They really show the skill and talent that the three of you possess. Thanks for making these public for everyone to enjoy!
This is what happens when 3 musicians who really understand their instruments and each other together and let the music flow.
I need this as a track, particularly the latter section.
Will toska ever come to Emerald Isle.
Bass? With a sustainiac? Never seen that before 😂
This was AWESOME!! I had forgotten Dave chopped his hair off, so I got very confused for the first few minutes as to who was on bass LOL. I am definitely in the camp of making this a weekly thing guys, ROCK ON!!
I'm not a huge metal fan so I do really listen to much Toska or Dorje but this is could listen to all day. Fantastic playing all three of you guys. Man I love this chanel!!!
There have been a number of landmark records that have really touched me deeply. The Cliffs of Dover by the fantastic EJ was one.
Layla live in San Diego by Clapton and tedashi Trucks and Comfortablely numb by David Gilmore live at Pompey are others
This is now added to my list. Simply amazing.
I know it's been said so many times over the past year and a half, but that was absolutely magical.
One of the best jams I've ever heard guys... mad skills all round
Wow guys. I'm a new guitar player. 3 months in. And sometimes I get really frustrated. But Rabea, you are an inspiration. Your work seems to keep me going and drives me to continue learning. Artists like Mark Knopler, David Gilmore, and Rabea, just make me want to play more.
Always awesome to see three extremely talented musicians jamming together in perfect sync.
Yes please!!!! We'll have some more of this. Love it Bea and Crew!! Some solid stuff in there!!
Bloody wonderful!Hope you put up more of this.
Sweet, never a dull moment - well done!!
People should pay special attention to how carefully the 3 of them listen to each other.... They've been playing together for many years, and they still LISTEN.. A key ingredient to successful music, especially with jams.
absolutely amazing! Loved the tempo, volume changes, intensity and softness, etc...what a great jam..
Can listen to this all day... So good!!!
Its not until you see something like this that you realise just how insanely good Rabea is.
absolutely outstanding......this needs to be released
this is beyond amazing....please record more of these!!!
Man I've had this on repeat for so many days, literally such good background music to game to haha! The transition from funky shreddy blues to the huge ambient section is just beautiful. The chemistry you guys have really is second to none, so satisfying to listen to.
Years later this jam still gives the goosebumps
All three of you are
GREAT musicians. Love it
This is awesome. Rabea is a total riff monster. And the chemistry between you guys is amazing. These jam sessions should definitely become a weekly feature.
Brilliant, and absolutely beautiful from start to finish!
an amazing jam session, the dynamics were just superb.I loved the funk rock also the ambient sections which sounded like some of the verve or the Floyd.
Unbelievably great! Perfect. And Ben was out of this world!
I still go back and watch this at least once a month my god you guys have bucket loads of tone, groove, and feel I look up to you three so much haha
What a way to start my morning! You gentlemen ROCK!!!
This is incredible stuff from all three guys! Awesome! And the tones...aaah. So good.
That must be the best strat sound I've ever heard!
No wonder they're such a staple within (rock) music.
Epic, guys! On lunch break, eyes closed, headphones on. Thank you.
