- Made a little demo to show some of the ways you can apply thumping to a 6 string guitar. I'm using my ABASI concepts Spartan 6 and the Neural DSP Archetype:ABASI plugin for tones. To learn this technique and more head to
thump.guitarme...
Thanks for watching!
Man, it's nice to see Tosin just play some chilled out blues licks on a 6 string for once.
Call me old fashioned but for a super chops thump off, I’d honestly prefer watching Victor Wooten. Abasi is fantastic there’s no question about that! I just wonder about his gear & eq choices. I find the brilliance of his playing is lost to me when it’s delivered so abrasive and non-musical sonically, excessively scooped bright & sterile metallic digital tonalities..
@@JasonWright-mc6dzTosin got his techniques from evan brewer, who got it from victor wooten. So its kind of the same technique and principle for different instruments and music style
except tosin plays an instrument actually good for soloing unlike victor wooten lmao
@@ricksouza9299 You must have not heard even one solo performance of wooten to have said that...
the tonal difference made so much sense since its a different instrument. trying to make guitar sounds like bass doesn't make sense. he mostly play 8 string guitars, which naturally had more low end freq which is an annoyance if you play guitar, that's why he used to eq his tone that way@@JasonWright-mc6dz
"It's okay, six-string Tosin isn't real, he can't hurt you."
Six-string Tosin:
underrated comment
😂😂😂😂
Very underrated comment
lmao
Hilarious
My god, man... this must be what people felt like watching Clapton, Hendrix, and EVH for the first time back in the day. Your approach to the instrument boggles my mind!
Seriously, there aren't proper words to describe how good he is at playing guitar
@@BaldorfBreakdowns Like, even if people are not fans of this style, he can completely wreck in more conventional styles. What a player...
his 7 string slapping video from 11 years ago was the most jaw dropping thing ive ever seen
Bassists do this all the time
@@patientmental875 Oh yeah, you're right, I forgot. Been there, done that, nothing unique going on here. Move along folks, Tosin is just your average bassist playing guitar.
I feel like he could really tap into a niche here, bringing dnb heads & djent/prog enthusiasts together, a full album would be great.
^^^
Listen to album Weightless
@@maxwelljames8656 I have many times! Not quite a full dnb mix though
A collaboration between Jojo Mayer and Abasi!
Thump into a niche you mean
He didn’t have to flex this hard
He kinda did tho
This flex matches the flex of his thumb 👍🏼
Yes he did lol
🤔😆
Dude is literally sleeping while playing this until the end. xD Man Tosin is the business.
Thump N' Bass needs to be a genre!
Absolutely
I have never felt better about giving a video a thumbs up
Tosin is the master of giving his strings a thumb up (literally)
Well I thumped down...
On the like button ;)
literally only one person disliked it lmao
@@prognogg212 mobile user probably had, sweaty hands and miss clicked
TheWoodenZosimos haha you got the joke xD lmao
NASA, one of your Aliens escaped and he's scaring everyone.
He’s flexing on us again
the end is nigh
And thankfully so.
ROFL!
Bet it feels good being able to hear this kind of music in your head and being capable of making it reality.
Tosin reminding us he’s the god of thump after Tims recent stuff
Precisely
Tim?
Haha, I see your profile is the cover of NLND. Mine is Tim (with wings) from Unprocessed- Real.
@@narvizz87 Tim Henson from polyphia
Yeah, maybe on a technical level. I'm sure Tim would even agree with that, he did say he learned it from Tosin.
But, Tim incorporates the technique into something that actually sounds good and isn't just impressive.
Amazing, but something got me confused. What instrument is that? Definitely looks like a guitar, but it's missing some strings
It has 6. What guitars do you have? Lol.
@@collecter3456 The joke is that Tosin usuall- actually , no honestly, forget it
@@collecter3456 r/woooosh
Runa Klem you’re so funny. Instead of being helpful and explaining the joke.

Baaaam...👊
That has Chug in it right?

Really rare finding a fellow Fate fan in a Prog Metal video comment section
@@mariinito8398 Fate OST's are all bangers so it's probably not that... Yeah you're right it is rare
Ahahhahaah def not cringe 😐😐😐
Prestine poetry
Tosin we need more atmospheric Drum n' Bass stuff in your next album xD
💯💯💯💯 yes!!!
Yes please
The electronic elements on their first album were so cool, especially the track On Impulse!
facts
You're Happy now? Answer: no
That subwoofer was the best addition to my living room ever.
We need to hear a DnB EP by Tosin Abasi holy hell
Tosin, you are a one of a kind musician. Your understanding of music and guitar will be unmatched for eternity.
Tosin: thumps
Camera: I don't have enough frames per second.
for real though! at first view I thought he was playing over a backing track. but nope.
@Ric Flair nah lol, his index and middle are doing some insane plucking after the thumb thumps
He's doing a type of tremolo picking that's common in classical/flamenco guitar, but on another level.
I thought it was a backing track too. But look closely you can see the D string vibrates.
New project for the slow mo guys phantom cam.
his thumb is as long as my middle finger. Who gave this man an unfair genetic advantage????
The more you practice growing up your fingers actually grow more to help you. My right hands fingers are a solid couple cm longer than my left myself
It's not about the size of your thumb, it's what you can do with it that matters
He has the thump gene
Look at jacos thumb its from 1000s of hours of playing
Jaco Pastorius’s had the same, descendants of gods I guess lol
This video proves that Tosin doesn’t need an 8 string to make beastly music: it’s just a tool that he uses to make music. He’ll make whatever guitar is in his hands play amazingly.
With each generation, the boundaries and possibilities of the guitar are pushed further. What a great era to be a musician.
the new album
hand it over
היי מה קורה חבוב
Great!!
חתיכת אגודל יש לו לטוסין הזה
@@Nihilvs נחוןןן
אינעל ראבקקק איזו קהילה
Tosin's playing never ceases to blow me away. Legitimately the most technical and skilled guitarist I know of
And there goes my excuse to buy an 8 string
this one has 6 :)
@@josteinrefseth Yep and now I have no excuse to get an extended range.
@@siddwitmusic477 whoops i misread
pfft... get it because you want it. I skipped 6 and 7 and went straight to 8. Now I have 3.
Jostein Refseth dude I misread that too. Omg, I guess I don’t need an 8 string either lol
Would love to see a Victor Wooten and Tosin Abasi collaboration.
Or Tosin with Charles Berthoud
@@TheDarkngrim it already exists ;-)
@@onestep87 omg
I think that would prove once and for all that there is a such thing as too many notes😂
I love how you're never satisfying and keep pushing and evolving already new concepts! Definitely one of the greats.
wow. Neuro as Leaders when?
Dude please 😍 more dnb metal. This shit is amazing
Ayyy never thought I'd see Seamless on a Tosin Abasi video
haha wow i didn't even make the connection but yeah this is straight up some aal neuro. always cool to see similarities between progressive electronic genres and progressive metal genres like that. i remember coming across a random comment from misha on an old Mr. Bill song, which was cool as fuck because he's a pretty prolific but relatively underground experimental glitch hop producer. totally different styles but still plenty of inspiration to be drawn.
I freaking knew i'd find you here
Hell yeah! They already dabble with IDM, some proper dnb is the next journey!
Tosin meets drum and bass was the crossover I didn't know i NEEDED.
I absolutely love the creativeness of guitar around those dnb tracks.
Bangin
I want more thumping in the new Animals as Leaders!!! You are the best
damn they already have a lot of thumping
@slowpoke not even close. More thumping. More strings. More BPM. More time signatures
Swarthy Giant 15 string larada when
I want LESS!!!
Swarthy Giant if music is just technical it isn’t good, if music is good and happens to be technical it’s good.
It might be years before people understand and appreciate his contributions to guitar playing.
Any one remember the sound, when PowerPuff Girls is flying to save Townsville from evildoers such as Mojo Jojo and the Gangreen Gang ?😅😂😂💥🎸💥💥
The world is so bless for having Tosin as a guitarist
1love from Nigeria🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🎸🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Holy shit, I remember XD
It’s the breakbeat 😜
Hahaha yes 😂 that's hilarious.
Are you related to tosin by any chance?
I can’t fucking breathe lol
the world isn't ready for this man
After I heard Tim Henson play "God Hand" I heard that it was actually Tosin who showed him the technique. I've of course already heard Tosin thumb before as the Woven Web was the first song of his that I'd heard but it's cool to see the technique applied on a 6 string as well with such speed and precision.
His playing is like a breath of fresh air , something completely different and new
No person could ever be this good. This is not a human being. I don't know why he came to our planet, but it's pretty cool that he did.
This actually blew my mind.
I beg you, keep making this DnB + guitar thing. You will write history
Can't wait for Tosin's next insane technique called Selective Fretting. Lol I kid of course. This shit is insane though.
He'll be playing a 9 string with his nostrils taking it to the next level.
I cant handle much more Abassi Innovations. Its getting harder to want to touch my guitar
You monster, Tosin. How do you fit so many fresh sounds and mind-blowing ideas in the space of less than a minute and a half?
Edit: That break at 0:47 with the electronics and that tapped phrygian dominant lick...
Charles covered this and it's awesome on BASS
That Reese/guitar call and response was so good
“Okay Tim since you stole my thumping I’m gonna steal your trap beats”
Lmao Tim has been thumping a lot lately. Guess Tosin's gotta start doing the trap beats.
Woah, your skills are absolutely breathtaking
sounds like a Animals As Leaders colab with Noisia
I would throw my entire bank account to buy a single track made by both.
i want it now
Sure does sound like Noisia, check out this track ua-cam.com/video/zHijFqAgy1c/v-deo.html
more like colab with Igorrr
I’d give more credit and say mob tactics
Anytime he creates something it's just a massive flex on everybody in the game
That mix of thumping and drum n' bass is just insane. The background track reminds me of Spor a lot, did you make it Tosin?
Wouldn't be surprised if he did, I definitely have some of the same samples from free drum n bass sample packs.
He is built for this. Tosin is a god. Love this guy!
is he playing in an ancient language? might just build the pyramid's and enslave earth now after listening to this
It's Minecraft enchanting table language
Good luck enslaving people who aren’t sheep to this nonsense.
@@AP02112 nonsense? I saw pure musicianship displayed as well as what it means to be innovative. no nonsense and no sheep here! Maybe go listen to some tonally diverse 5FDP.
@@therxskillz No melody, no groove, boring and wank. Nothing special or entertaining if you have an attention span.
@@AP02112 it must suck to be you
Never thought I'd hear Tosin playing over Neuro beats... Man's a magician!
The only thump I get out of my guitar is when it slides across the wall and thumps on the floor 😣
Please tell me that didn't actually happen
I don’t like the physical pain I got from reading that
One of the sickest things I've ever heard. This would go great over some boss battle in a video game.
0:38 after looking at this part I am now convinced that he has no thumb, but actually a tiny muscular arm attached to his hand
hahaha, best part of the tune too... but that shit is ridic
Damn man!you totally blow me away.Every time I watch you play I get goosebumps.Never stop playing.
I keep coming back to this video; the techno-industrial elements fused with this technique are just divine.
Legendary chops, very few artists leave me mesmerized and Tosin is part of that few.
Charles has a great taste of artists:)
The curve on his thumb is godly in itself.
I hope this will be a new AAL song!
Me too
@@DavidNwokoye me too
People ask me why I don’t play guitar normal lol this is why. Tosin, Henson etc. are revolutionary guitarists that keep the craft relevant
Sounds sci-fi/futuristic, cyberpunk without bugs and with a lot of accuracy.
One day when I create a RPG, I want this to be the battle music.
Life is an RPG. Start a fight with this in your earbuds.
Yo Tosin, you never cease to amaze and inspire me with your ingenuity.
You know how they say prog this prog that, f'that it 's Tosin style period \m/ !
Amazing technique aside... Did anyone noticed that this could definetely be the soundtrack of any kick ass action movie "early-plan-execution" scene, where characters are flawlessly doing everything they were set to do before things go wrong and there's a fight scene?
Ever watch the Powerpuff girls?
@@crowing3886 OMG, that is so true!! This is a Powerpuff girls soundtrack from start to finish! LOL
Or an intense hacking scene, ending with the legendary "I'm in" phrase.
my thoughts exactly, he should score a movie
This is how a freakin genius advertises his approach to things. I’ve bought the course and yes, it helps a little :-)
young musicians going to be so intimidated. brilliant stuff, Tosin!
not all of us hitch hiked for 6 years ): you got mad talent man, i want to see you live again!
In case we were wondering if tosin is indeed a fan of Aphex Twin ahah.
Totally!
You know I'm really happy at least somebody can do this
We can't all walk on the moon but we can watch 😍
Why did this not make the album... honestly?
Love the timing between notes ,that is where the secret is!!!
It's like you're channelling Noisia in this one!
This signature move is so amazingly incredibly unbelievable and so f.ck.ng efficient .... i'll never get tired of watching/listening to it ! 🤘
Literally sitting there making end game Metroid boss music in his room
Gezz, it's like a stroll in the park for this guy. Didn't even break a sweat.
Dude, that was amazing! How do you play so cleanly without a fret wrap?!
called being a god
Also meticulously crafted compression/noise gating between the custom fishman pickups /Abasi concept pedals and his sexy ass clean amps
Because fret wraps are for chicks
Right hand precision, left-hand muting. Look at how he uses the whole of his hand
love those palm muted hammer-ons
played this at .75 speed to see what was even happening and it was like a normal AAL song... It makes me think that all along Tosin has been slowing himself down to make music that us mortals can understand
We need a full album of this! I need something to listen to while cruising through the alps in the lambo I'll never have.
machines aint shit compared to this playing so i don't know what to call you lmao. legit out of words because you blew all of my compliments out of the water. keep it up man this shit is some of the best music ive ever heard.
Thanks for letting us know you're going to be in the soundtrack for Thumper 2
I think I speak for most people when I say this.
WHAT THE ACTUAL F^CK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First time I see one of your comments with less than 500 likes 😂
i lowkey got doom soundtrack vibes from the production, sduper pacey and rhythmic. loved it mate
im really just looking for glitchy electronic music with shred guitar like this.. this was posted 3 years ago, still haven't heard anything like it, someone point me in the right direction?
Pinn Panelle did live covers of dubstep with a rock band.
Just spectacular. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Made a little demo."
*Plays a large, beefy demo"
That's probably the coolest looking guitar I've ever seen.
This is fricking incredible.. You and Tim need to make a song together, we already got "Unprocessed feat. Tim Henson" but getting "Polyphia feat. Tosin Abasi" or "Animals as Leaders feat. Tim Henson" would be totally awesome.
Lol no dude tim is annoying
Feat scott too
@@fp-ko7vg definitely
@@ironcomic he might be for some people but you can't deny that his guitar playing is sick
Lol true but there are lots of really good tappers out there, Tosin is badass you cant compare
Ending should’ve panned over to a hacker saying “I’m in”
Now that Tim is coming for his brand Tosin had to remind us all who the real thumping king is.
No one is coming for his brand lmao
Abasi plays with vibe, Tim (polyphia) is naive and just doesn't do it for me, if that's the future of music then we're doomed. It's pure crap.
Abasi is musically gifted.
Polyphia sucks
@@caustixsoda8125 okay, a) what do you mean by naive and b) even if its not your thing, you cant ignore the fact that polyphia have a very mature sound and that Tim Henson is an extremely talented guitarist. He may not be as familiar with different time signatures or scales but his playing is tight and hes an incredibly fast learner.
@@chilibiskit14 okay... I was kind of joking, but then you just ruined it lol
This is incredible...
Amazing jam!
Dude, that was nasty... I'm not gonna attempt to tab this one out, this is way too hard compared to the Etudes stuff x)
Two of my favorite things in the same mix
Okay but them break beats tho, sounds like something Noisia would produce
Beautiful guitar to go with some incredible chops !!
"iam using my abasi concepts thumb"
Never thought I would hear Tosin over a DnB beat, amazing times were living in for music!
i got this video after watching charles' vid (if you know what i mean)
this makes me think a collab with you and The Algorithm would be freaking sick. Also on first watch I could've sworn there was a tremolo effect or something on the track... dayum that technique :O
How on Earth do you tap with either hand like that without other strings ringing out? Or the string you just played ringing out after you lift your finger? I could understand if you were using a FretWrap, but this is just phenomenal :)
Pretty sure its coz he palm mutes while hes tapping
Skillz
