Matt....... you will never know how many people on this planet will become keyboard players due to these videos...... you are simply a positive vibe to mankind.....thanks !
Or better Players.
I played classical piano for 13 years and while it was fun and challenging learning different pieces, it ended up feeling like homework. I stopped playing for 2 or so years and only started again after watching some of your funk keys tutorials and wanted to try out all those licks and techniques. You've made me fall in love with playing piano again I'm so much more of a confident and flexible player now. Seriously cant thank you enough for this content, you're actually a legend.
I see matt johnson. I clicked immediately.
🤣 So I do!
Same lol
I clicked because the thumbnail was the Vintage Vibe, and feeling a little disappointed.
6 months into my piano / keyboard journey, this is both extremely inspiring and intimidating.
Thank you for everything you do.
keep us posted. a piece of advice - always practice your scales and practice the hard stuff. hope it goes well ✨🙏🏾
It´s admirable, honorable and not a matter of course that a world-famous musician shares his experience with us! 🫂 Mr. Johnson
I'm skeptic that this is actually happenning...we're talking about Jamiroquai here...this is nonsense...we're talking A TIER musician here...sharing his approach to music...keep thinking that when he notice it, he'll remove the vids.
It just seems natural coming from Matt... !
@@pollock8000 Jamiroquai doesn't control Matt lmao. It's not his right to have the videos removed, either. I don't think they would even have a conversation about it though, Matt's been doing it for over a year.
Very helpful
actually I can't believe it... it's so fantastic, he could make so much money with that....
It took me years of frustration, effort and sometimes happy accidents to learn most of this. This stuff is gold. 👏
These such amazing practical videos. I've been playing piano professionally for years in clubs, bars and hotels and this lesson should be given to any keyboard player needing clear and effective direction to play and make money in modern music. You are a great teacher and a generous musician. Thanks and blessings.
Dear Mr. Matt!
Your are THE most important and beautiful in MODERN JAZZ - FUNK MUSIC !!!
When I was 10, watching your music videos on MTV, I never thought that someday I could be learning from the person himself about music fundamentals....
Internet... it's mind blowing! :D
You're an absolute legend. I can't believe this is free. THANK YOU MATT!
I keep hearing ‘The Groove’ by Rodney Franklin, takes me back to air piano on the dance floor……..love listening to you Matt, you’re such an inspiration
Thank you Mr. Johnson. Thanks from the deep of my heart. Andrea from Italy
Best thing you can do to support this guy is buy his album. It’s excellent for starters! Go to band camp. And like his videos.. what a dude. Love it Matt thanks.
Wow! Just wow! Even as a complete beginner ( just bought a workstation for my 60th- after years on the tenor Sax) I find this inspiring. I can relate so much through my Sax journey. I totally agree on finding the tonal centre and playing in one key (rather than following the Chord changes). I found this totally inspiring. Enthusiasm doesn’t diminish as you get old. (Referring to my age and others like me). What a brilliant and natural teacher.
best advice i have EVER heard, anywhere. nailed it. thanks.
This is utterly fantastic. The playing is top-notch, the sounds are great, and there's loads of ideas there for me to go and explore. I'm essentially a bass player that has been playing for 50 years, and who can play keyboards to an average standard. I'm so excited by this video, and I look forward to taking it apart. Many thanks to you for sharing such knowledge with me.
@9:10 Chick Corea smiles down from heaven. Love your vids, Matt!
Dude! smiling from ear to ear. Rewatching over and over and over and learning tons. Thank you Matt. You're the G.O.A.T
Matt you're already a guru on the keys and it's going to be so cool watching you climb and climb as a musical educator for thousands or millions of people!
Thanks Matt for sharing. I love your videos. You not only educate but also inspire, and best of all make these skills seem attainable. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks Matt - learned more ini these 15 minutes than in hours of other course material - please keep up this great work. Your spark is very motivating!
This is GOLD, FRIED GOLD, folks. Liquid, molten and priceless knowledge. THANK GOD FOR UA-cam. And a big thank-you to Matt Johnson too :)
Leg End.
25 years on stage I was cheating with the transpose-knob. Now, a few years after finish with the band, I learn and practice more and more. After all it's your fault! 😤
So thank you so much...🤝
This is a really helpful and entertaining tutorial.
It feels like you're not trying to teach.
More like a friend giving good advices,
to further develop our own style.
For me it's heartwarming.
Thank you for sharing with us. 🙏
I really appreciate the way everything was explained. The entire video feels genuine, it helps immensely and doesn't feel overwhelming in terms of understanding. Thank you for another great video! 🤘🎹🎶
Matt, all of your videos are so informative and, specifically, very enjoyable. Your content is top.
Thanks Matty. I've stopped playing for about a year now. Fell out of love with my piano and music in general I think. This video has got me thinking that I need to get back playing again, So A Big Thank you! to you Matt. Really Many Thanks. By the way you really are a Super Player. All the Best.
All your videos are amazing Matt, they have helped me grow as a player the past two years. This video was what i needed right now! Your reminder to ease in and build excitement is a gold mine. Thank you!
One of the most inspirational videos I’ve watched recently. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the video Matt. I love how you boiled the theory down into the essential things and also added a motivational part at the end.
Thank you again for sharing both your knowledge and that subtle kindness in every video! Let it inspire the world.
I love your videos. They are entertaining and exciting musically as well as amazingly informative and encouraging. It is so cool that you share this knowledge with us, and you do it in a way that makes a hack wannabe keyboard player like me feel like I could learn something. Thank you for being such a gentle and cool teacher.
Awesome video, Matt! I have been familiar with all concepts you talked about before going in this video, yet this ordered things in my head so well. Thanks, amazing teacher!
This is such a useful video, delivered in a wonderfully simple and clear manner. So refreshing compared to so many other youtube videos. And what a player! I love your note choices, and you've got groove for days! Thank you for sharing your wisdom Matt!
absolutely love these mate. the knowledge you have as a professional musician is actually amazing and really makes your videos stand out on youtube compared with other youtube jazz tutorials etc.
Thank you so much for your great and inspiring videos. Thank you for sharing your passion and feelings about piano !
I loved all of that! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I liked how you simplified the approach instead of immediately entering this mode or that mode scale which only seems to result in sounding like a bunch of scales instead of a well thought out solo. Keep up the fantastic work! Have a great day!
The phrasing… The touch… the feel… massively inspiring!
Thanks for this great lesson, Matt. You are a star! Even better - you are an actual star who shares his knowledge and experience. Just bought the pack. Well worth it for the excellent backing tracks.
Love your sound - its 4 months since I last visited and the sound is just as fresh. Thankyou Matt
I've been listening to your music for a while now, but only this week I came across your UA-cam channel. I honestly just want to thank you for the content and the clarity of your approach to teaching. Thank You.
Wonderful playing Matt - always makes me smile Thanks
You are the best! These videos are so incredibly helpful and you are such a cool and kind soul. Thank you for sharing!
Best 16 mins I have ever spent. Thanks so much Matt for these pro tips.
Played music my whole life but just coming to keys, you are a huge part of that journey. Thank you for not only being a massive inspiration in this new journey but for the emotion you poured into the soundtracks of my past!
You are not only an amazing player, but your advice is amazing and something that makes your lessons over the top.
Just amazing awesomeness!! Thank you so much Matt!! I know what I'm doing for the next few months. Please do keep the lessons coming.
This was brilliant. Thanks! Very useful and inspiring. I've been playing keyboard for more than 40 years but always been rubbish on solos. This will help me develop.
MATT !! that was brilliant !! one of the most informative practical hands on easy to understand lesson... really relatable .. Well done .. Respect..
Highest ratio of valuable information per minute EVER. Thank you so much!
Your english speaking is easy to understand for me.
Thank you from Japan!!
Great work man! I love this very clean, simple and encouraging!!👍🏾👍🏾❤
How many years I tried to follow Bill Sharpe's solos from Shakatak. You're up front in your face with the keyboard showing similar chord progressions and soloing around them is insane. Thanks so much! I usually follow you through your synth reviews, you should so more of these tutorials also!! Thanks!!! Cheers Mate!!
This is invaluable. Been in and out of playing. Done some composing, rock, blues, classical etc, but never gotten to the point where I can solo and elaborate. My dream to sit in a bar/restaurant and entertain people, and be able to do solos, without getting boring. And of course play with a band. There's this guy, Carli Muñoz, who played with lots of wellknown artists, Wilson Pickett, Association, George Benson - and my favorite band the Beach Boys. Now he mostly entertains people with jazz music etc in his bar in Puerto Rico. Wonderful! So thanks a lot for your videos! Awesome! Now I have some practising to do....😊😉👍👏🎵🎼🎹
Thanks again, Matt, for another incredibly inspiring and helpful video lesson!
Matt, this is very good, deductive and logical. I agree with you to do some more of this. it has been very informative.
This is a nice and concise summary on who to build up a solo. Not only relevant for R&B, Funk and Soul. But also Jazz pianists can pick up on some of these ideas. Well done!
Great improv Matt. As a smooth jazz saxophonist, I practice in my recording studio and learn my own licks. I come up with a groove on the keyboard, add bass and drums and play along with it. I hear a lick in my head and sing it. I then practice the lick until I can play it. I usually record while I am practicing and put together melodic solos this way. Once I have it under my belt, I will learn it in all keys. Really expands my playing and has helped me develop my own style and sound. Thanks for your continued inspiration. Luv your sound. You badass man...
Wonderful phrasing like yours is very instructive, along with the scalar and harmonic content. Thanks!
Love these technique videos. Thanks so much Matt, absolute gold!
What a humble guy. He is amazing.
Great insights and inspiration come from a great spirit. Thanks Matt!!!!!
Amazing tutorial. Please make more Matt. Its been more helpful than you can imagine.
Thank you for this great tutorial, Matt!
Genius sent to us simply through trial and error and long experience. I use these scales all the time, bu the idea of a centre had never really occurred to me. Thanks Matt - appreciate it 👌🤯
Best contend in this context in youtube. Very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You are just amazing, Sir Matthew! 😁 Seriously though, thank you so much. I love your vids and watching you play. I will have to go watch all of Jamiroquai’s videography now to hear everything you’ve done. I treasure your work!
Awesome stuff, thanks a lot! You give as much groove and vibe as you are melodic and deep! AND great lessons here 👍
Wonderful sound - thankyou - very inspiring
"Doesn't matter, cos I'm me, he's him". Great advice, especially for someone starting out with solos..! Thanks 👏
You have a fabulous ability to explain complex musical ideas really simply.
Thanks Matt, 🙏🏻great video, I’m gonna take these tips and practice now, very grateful, you’re helping me switch off from the world right now! Which is so needed, have a great weekend 🎹🙌🏻😎
These videos are fantastic. Keeps me sane and inspired in this crazy World... 🎹👍🙏
your videos are a real gem matt
very grateful for your content
greetings from Argentina
Such a great video! Thank you, Matt
Thanks heaps Matt!! This will help me add licks to my recordings. I’m a singer of soul rnb that took up keys last year. You’ve been really helpful on this funky journey.
Thank you Matt! Very useful and very simple explanations not easy to find from seasoned pros like you, cheers! 👍
Never ever seen anything close to how good you teach in this video! I decided to learn watching this now. Going to buy the lessons and get jamming =) Thank you!
Excellent explanation! I've been playing the piano for 50+ years and have only started jamming with others, including soloing (which terrified me) - slowly but surely I'm working this out, thanks for the class!
Instant subscribe!! I think I’m about to binge all of your videos 🙏 my piano learning journey has been on the fast track thanks to great teachers like yourself and Julian Bradley.
Stumbled into this video. I like the teaching style. Very informative. Thanks!
so much more informative than other similar videos, thank you so much matt!
Loving the phrasing and the funk
Thank you for sharing your gift. 😎
Fantastic Matt, thanks for sharing
Always sush a pleasure listening to your solos!!!
Please do more of this kind of videos, they are super helpful. 10 / 10 teacher!!
Matt I have been following and absorbing your tutorials for a few months now and everyday I advance my muscal vocabulary a little bit more. Thank you so much for sharing. While my guitars gently gather dust I am working my way past "hack" keyboard player.
Amazing video. The playing is awesome but the explanation and love for the instrument is what does it.
So many great tips in this video and agree that we as musicians all have our own personality. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and kindness 👍
I’m a fan & musician. Being able to learn from you has helped me immeasurably! Your clear, concise & lucid instruction along with your soulful style are captivating! Thank You for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing Matt 🙏
What an honest, great tip from a world class musician who shares. Wow
Hey Matt, I;ve seen you in Israel during the Automaton tour and was just blown away,,,I've been a fan since the very first days of Jamiroquai...Today I'm a music instructor and I have one of the bands I'm coaching that plays only Jamiroquai stuff to the smallest details. Not only the big hits but also great sonf like Hey Floyd, Everyday and others. Your videos bring so much insight and shed so much light, not at all taken for granted all this knowledge and craftsmanship shared...Thank you so much for all of this!
nice thanks! say ho to the band from me!
Matt is so talented! Great musician 🙌
As a player and a teacher, this is SUPER valuable! Thanks!!!
This is a great session to learn from. Especially from what you're saying.
Love your stuff Matt. You really inspires ♥️👍
I had a question about your right-hand movement on your recent "left-hand" video. You replied by honesty saying it would be too much😢. However, I kept researching and found this video which explains EXACTLY what I needed to know. So now when I go back to watch your left-handed video, I'll know what you're doing! You're a great teacher...and from what I can discern from your perspective about music...you're a cool Kat to have as a friend.
Matt, you're a literal wizard. Thank you for this!
I don’t even know what to say really. I’m so thrilled to be able to hear from you. Your the man! Cheers
