This made me emotional, seeing it all come together. I am a HUGE Dilla fan and his sampling and his ear and talent are UNMATCHED.He left so much greatness behind for us to cherish. A musical genius. Ahmad Jamal is pure genius as well. There's another video on here, which remains a favorite of mine almost 10 years later, where someone recreated the "Players" (Slum Village) instrumental, using the original track "Claire", by Singers Unlimited. Incredible stuff.Great job.
I'm not smart enough to understand these notes but i can feel the genius behind it from both Ahmad Jamal and Jay Dee. You are also a genius for being able to break it down for us. Thank you 👍🏽
this is beyond amazing. i've been listening to Swahililand x visioneers mix on repeat & i fell in love with these exact chords. now i know how to play them thanks to you!! :) keep it up
I Love Music is a great piece! I only know the part Dilla sampled for Nas though, did you find a complete transcript anywhere? I would love to have it!
Oh man. Christmas came early. Now which one of us is going to carry the torch and do a further tutorial for this tune? Oh well, looks like it's you again, Samuel! :D
Very nice Tutorial. Thank you so much. But I think that the last two Chords are on 1 and 2. On 1 and 2 1/2 (in your spelling the "AND") seems to me "Off Note/Rythm"
Hey! Sorry I only just read this, but its a Yamaha P-255. Sound is great but the touch of the keys may be somewhat light to some players, or so ive been told. Has a great EP sound too, I think I used it in another tutorial but not sure..

This video is too good to be true.
This is good. Swahililand is played in E minor though. Dilla turned it up a half step
But this is great man!

I've been practicing Ahmad Jamal "I Love Music", and I've been dying for a "Swahililand" tutorial
