Marco Rodi Live

[chewyflea]

@markandtyler Try to tell that to FLEA!

[SonnyJ95]

24 dislikes 24 very jelous people...

[marcello1993ful]

@SonnyJ95 I don't like this,because there's no timing,groove,rythm,and it's clear that he doesn't know anything about the music theory. it would be good to ask him to play a solo improvisation over a jazz standard like all the things you are,and see what happens,also it doesn't make sense to play for 8 minutes so fast,I mean,if one is a good player,he doesn't need to demonstrate it with all that fast things,without feeling and groove.

ps:the another one bites the dust version sucks.

[SonnyJ95]

@marcello1993ful seem jealous to me pal x

[Momcilo93]

I think i just found the worlds greatest bass player! :D

[Dixy113]

yeah but can you do a backflip? xD

[calabazoom]

jajaja GOD? dios...? porfavor....es bueno....pero no exageremos...

[OutOfTheClosetProd]

SUB FTW

Mine is like my best friend, and yet im thinking about modding it...

[Astenosis]

Talk about sellin the soul. Sick nasty!

[shannongwhalen]

you are by far the best bass player for your age

[Danielgoksu]

Hahaha lovet it, he got a hole between his teeth just like Flea in Red hot chili peppers, got love the resembelence but his music even more :)

[djstevieb1985]

Now this I like!

[theforsakenpiggies]

Tapistic = AWESOME. love it.

[kennyCyAnIdE]

sei un mito mi potresti dire che efetto usi....(la marca)

[ironbawsmcginty]

Your a fuckin GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[IbanezjemJSX]

deffonatly gives bass a good name

[OutOfTheClosetProd]

I have a SUB too!!! Sweet :D

Is your's modded at all?

[pete256]

Dude! you lost ur volume knob!:-P

[theforsakenpiggies]

Never get tired of this video :]

You should put up all of your demo songs :]

[duketronix]

nice work on the double thumbin' Stu Hamm action was pretty toight too!

Only critique I'd have is its so much pentatonic or natural minor derived material all through. Great stuff, just maybe branch out from that a bit more and it would be beyond reproach!! Amazing performance though congrats on the victory!

[realguitarrody89]

i'd really like to work with this guy xD

keep slappin' man!!!!!!

[redhotchilipepperos]

a mierdaaaaaaa lo q toca este chabon¡¡¡¡

[blackAangelO]

man... man... your live must be so good to see.

[alexbruneauguitard]

you are a monster! haha great job man! trully talented... keep it up.

[typo1337]

please the tabs for the first first slapriff!!!

[Ewreh]

Marco doesn't use tabs, as you all should.

Play by ear or improvize just like marco himself!

[typo1337]

i think i already heard it out but not sure if its correct..

dont know if he pops this little lick very fast or its just note+hameron+hameron

[SpookywookyXD]

how much does the pedals cost? plz comment back

[TwilightGaiden]

It's a loop pedal. They come in a range of prices depending on what you are looking for.

[NewAgeEagles]

It would be nice to see you play on a six string

[MEVE58]

SHITTT!!

[hellbumkin85]

makes me want to play

[valerk]

ytou are fuckin awsome

man I hope you'll go far

[headbangerthebest]

the bass is the best instrument

[motoxchamp321]

yep:)

[12345l6789]

well it isnt. it just isnt. i play the bass a bit, and the guitar is much more versatile!!

i admire this as astonishing though!!!!

[apc467]

guitar isnt as versatile. you can immate guitar sounds on bass pretty easily, but try playing ur guitar like a bass....

Guitar maybe better in a band, mainly cos it is being backed up by bass and drums, but solo bass is just amazing.

[Celmador]

try to do any andy mckee stuff on bass ;).

[12345l6789]

what and stuff like bert jansch isnt. you can playy bass and chors at the same time on a guitar. and you can play chords and melody at the same time on a guitar

[dbraune]

Yeah!!! thats verry cool man!

[tinou31]

fantastic! I'm waiting my boss RC-2!

[ericofspades]

im guessing..

GK head

Giga-Delay

Musicman and G&L (those i know)

..ampeg 2x12?

[ericofspades]

and a boss md-2 mega distortion and ...some kind of auto wah?

[Afrosiris]

you still go to maisonneuve cegep huh ? =P?

[peggybr0wn7]

great !!!!

[suicidalearth]

awesome

[RattleAndHum1988]

Hey man did you take lessons? Or did you learn from scratch just self taught?

[propea]

I dropped out of music education and learned by myself. I hate musical education.

[JACF7427]

hey i was lookin on ur web and i saw some pics of u wif ur pedals , and ur daisy chain the free ones u should put tape or somin on them thats wat i do so they dont get recked

[email11123]

@propea Why do you hate music education?

[propea]

@email11123 Kills creativity. Boring.

[pilosov]

this isnt improv, is it?

[pittyboy2000]

Gwar, one for the Bass playing team! I've never been a huge fan of 'technical' bass in music, but by itself..well, come on, who can compete with a slap/thumb solo lol

[ericofspades]

just curious...have you seen Erik Mongrain's "Airtap"?

[ericofspades]

very very awesome.

i can see some Jaco and Stu Hamm influences. probably a bit of Victor, too.

what was that effect at 2:52? your wah thingy?

[Silentlamb13]

what kind of string do u use on that

[capnbiggots]

Elixir I think. He uses those on his G&L

[reynolds101]

great video and amazing playing.

I also love your kicks!

[LeelooHamasaki]

I like it, because it's groovy und not only the usual technical Show-off. But he quotes a lot of other bassist's stuff.

[cryptopsy5]

genial

[devilboy1080]

he has a boss loop station

basically

he stomps on the switch with his foot and hold it

plays something

and when he takes it off

it keeps playing it over and over again until he turns it off

and he can have multiple loops at once

[D4ni31]

I can totally hear the flea influence in there

[masterbasser68]

un mot...grand!

[oucronos]

minchia!!!!!!

[addicted2pbkiki]

vraiment cool! ça prouve que les quebecois sont capables de montrer mieu que simple Plan

[tinou31]

fantastique!!

[voco900]

in one word great.

[oshakalo]

Nice one! Yep, i think its called LOOP. U press Record, play something, then press Stop. Whenever u want u Play that... It's useful to make a base for the solo, or when u have to play something that u'd have to use 10 fingers in 1 hand... U'RE A GREAT BASS PLAYER MAN!

[13thorderbass]

hes hitting it with his foot and it records what he is playing and it can record a few riffs at a time so it sounds like a bunch of people are playing

[ubflash1]

very nice, but i dont understand is you foot hitting a recorder? so that way you can play along with the recording so it sounds like more players? Or is it actualy other people with you but just hidding?

[piotreek7]

genius

[odzamaikanos]

How can u download clips like this from youtube??

[Lanfy]

Valgerd1 (3 weeks ago) marked as spam

wtf... did anyone checked at 7:28 ?? he take away his hands from the bass... but the song keep playing... playback maybe ???

=> Il utilise une loopstation, forcément ça joue en boucle derrière lui, mais ce n'est pas du playback -_-.

De plus à la fin l'image et le son sont décalés...

[13thorderbass]

that ending is amazing great job marco

[basnissen88]

what can i say man... Great :P

[tommaso86]

sei molto bravo

[eoieduff]

Very good

[knockdownguy]

awesome u mean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[drinksummilk]

whats the pedal all the way to the left he plays at 2:51?? i love that effect.

AMAZING JOB!!!  ur incredible

[Valgerd1]

wtf... did anyone checked at 7:28 ?? he take away his hands from the bass... but the song keep playing... playback maybe ???

[GeekisKhan2003]

He's using loops, so the riff he just played gets recorded and keeps playing until he hits the switch.

And I think it's impressive with loopings. It still takes talent for a lone musician to put all those pieces together.

[Yontar]

it would be really impressive if he wasnt using the loops.

[Tanks5226]

nice feel pal

[trainofthought06]

Good lord...you might just have Flea beat. Good work Marco!

[TreeHuggingDude]

You're great mate (from a fellow bassist).

What amp were you using?

[Distortiondog]

Well he is fast...

But it didnt sound good...

He really destroyed country song...

[odzamaikanos]

From this day on when ppl ask me if god exist ill shure know what to anser

[Atrip]

the bass was proven it can be solo instrument a long time ago first with the solo in my generation

[4STRINGBASSFREAK]

YEAH!

[raylopez1961]

Hats off to you Marco! Your my new hero. Watch out Victor, Stanley, and Marcus.

[WorldwidewelcomE]

Cool Bag Of Rhythm - Right On - WorldwidewelcomE - VIKING

[mattshogi]

Marco rodi is amazing.... why hasn't he hit it HUGE yet??? that is quite surprising to me.

[Tonycaveman]

Holy mountain beavers, Batman!

[bassrules88]

does any1 know any good bass solos or bass lines that would be good for a talent show

[ChancellorJewitt]

You just listened to one. It'll get yeah first place.

[rutchton]

Really great !!! Whaaa !

[BlitzkriegBopp]

Gooooood =D

[underscore227]

fucking hell,., amazing

[smoness]

this marco vid is awesome*

[jenichxxx]

Oh my god...nothing special...

[smoness]

get fucked dude, this marco is awesome!

[LauriRHCP]

You rock!

[bunonastick]

is that song u played original? it sounds familiar..

[capnbiggots]

Is there a bit of Titanic at the end?

[wordsarelouder]

Nice, but a bit disorganized.. look for fingersmoran, hes a canadian on youtube and his tracks are the shit, him and his brother are an instrumental band, bass and drums.

[oyelad]

damn that rocked... up until now i thought bassists were was one of those unnessential additions to bands and could easily be scrapped without compromising the music. still do, but at least you prove it can actually be a good-sounding stand-alone instrument

[NewAgeEagles]

holy shit look around youtube for solos and shit, you can do tons of acoustic and amzing things on a bass that u cant on a guitar

[BlitzkriegBopp]

Yes!

[ck10n3]

gonna make it.

[MissFlea]

tu sei un mito...hai un contatto msn? vorrei parlarti a riguardo di effettistica =)

[arcellus]

if you wear your bass a little higher you won't have to stoop over

[AmadeusD]

I hate you bro. Even though, i can get around large objects, you;re always around in my peripherins visuals. IM THE MOON.

[insejn]

How old r U? When you startd play and how many hours a day you've been practising man o_0???

[BassPfunk]

I put you right next to all my idols, man! You're amazing!

[durden1010]

perfect

[IGORVILLANUEVA]

GOOD JOB VERY NICE MAN!!!

IGOR

[dh222]

inspirational...from a guitarist.

[Libanass]

How can I get the tabs of this last awesome tapping??

[somoano18]

nice vid. he`s amazing, he and victor wooten are amazing, one day i`ll plñay like that

[karlehagen]

Great playing!! Haha, show off, a amazing display of serious and humorous playing. Though the riffs could have been better arranged in the start. Keep up the good work.

[foowah7]

I have to agree that the melodic part at the end with harmonics is my favorite, but the whole solo was awesome!!! peace.

[Spasisten]

I was blown of

[Libanass]

Nooo Lanfy, it's a 100% Musicman S.U.B!

I'm a big fan of this guy! but, right, the slap is a little boring when it gets long.

[alka1987]

To be honest, im quite impressed by your technical ability. But I feel that the slapfest was abit too long, I enjoyed the 'another one bites the dust' part and the final harmonics part the most. The keyboard part was quite interesting, but i take it more as a gimick thing...pretty cool stuff though, good luck in your competition

[Spasisten]

just a quistion here.. is'nt it Rappers delight and not another one bites the dust?... im asking this cuz i thought i was and then i read this... and now im comfused.. what is it? lease reply?

[capnbiggots]

There's a bit of both, it starts with rapper's delight

[joseanselmo]

fuck

[zukubus]

niceeeee!

[pizzaguy01]

awesome

[WankstaBill]

really nice playing, I enjoyed it

[Russett420]

before watching that performance i would have never put anyone else in the same catagory as les claypool.....but your there buddy- congrats

[Spoonman8888]

man claypool is one of my like all time favorite players but there are guys out there who can do things you wouldnt even beleive.

[stigbeve]

sure it's a solo instrument, on w/ loops.

[jeffapplin]

Great job.

[aelf]

is that a flea bass?

[ramonov7]

its a musicman sub dumb ass

[Lanfy]

I think it's a musicman stingray, the same as flea

[propea]

no its a sub. hehe

[chosenfro68]

Are you influenced by flea at all?

[LivingDeadBeat6]

Fantastic

[wajahatkhan]

AWESOME!!!

[BOOCAKE4U]

p.s. i should also add that the line is a shameless ripoff of chic "good times" by the incomparable bernard edwards...thanksiloveyoubyebye

[BOOCAKE4U]

that be "rappers delight" by sugarhill gang (which then slides into "another one bites the dust" as noted by the previous poster)

very nice job brother marco

[HSTBodacious]

Will someone please send me a message of what song he's playing at 4:48 cause ive been looking for tabs for months.

[JesustheLizard]

Did I hear another one bites the dust in there?

[jamesysp]

can i have your children?

[lummond]

Excellent, love the Jaco bits! Was that a DigiTech Bass Driver for distortion? That's what I use!

[bassbreaker]

That was insane! who ever disses that knows nothing, seriously its clever, unique, and all aroung AMAZING, isnt that wut basses are for?

[barret20]

i dont like music mans either but well done

[Echooff3]

This guy is amazing. Check it out!!!

[TrippDay]

that ending part after 7 min is genius.

[Axewing]

Did you use an enelope filter pedal for a part in that song? It sounded like it, and what other pedals did you use?

[bassist13]

ernie ball basses are nice, they are really good for funk and they have a large spot for popping

[myung89]

ive never seen that a bass player sits down and plays on his legs!!!

ur fucking awesome!!

[whoora]

omfg..wow :)

[remistofeles]

I second to that (the comment above)... wholly

[remistofeles]

and BTW, I guess you have noticed how all those damm haters who criticizes other people's playing NEVER HAVE VIDS OF THEMSELVES PLAYING STUFF

congratz, it was a killer performance :-)

[ScottZoltok]

Very impressive, although if I may offer some constructive criticism, I found parts (mainly in the first half) to be somewhat disjointed and unorganized. Technically, amazing, but it lacked forward motion in some parts. Did you write it before hand? If so, then this is my suggestiong if you want to keep working on it. But if you improvised it, then all I can say is whoa.

Don't listen to cdenver, that was for the most part awesome.

[rickenrocker]

so, now, do people actually find those ernie ball basses attractive, I meen come on, the pickguard is an egg! maybee i'm the only person that doesn't like 'em? i dunno. oh yeah, you're really good too.

[rhix]

Why does every bass solo nowadays have to include some variation of that damn country song?

[thestillbornone]

not my style but damn thats right awesome, u definitly crush me. keep up the good work dude

[raphthebassist]

wow this is awesome I wish could play the bass half as good as this you are truly up there with Flea and John Entwistle very nice and congradulations on winning

[propea]

So i'm use to that kind of comments. thx for ur honest opinion. but you are WRONG. it is music dude. thats the way im expressing it.

In whatever you do, there will always be 2 extremes. people who love it, people who hate it. so do whatever the hell you want.

[cdenver]

I dont want to burst your wee bubble but this bass solo was rubbish. I myself play chopper bass and I can do that if I wanted. That is NOT music, there is NO balance. Its all random riffs, there is no rythem. Your trying to hard, stop playing and star listening!!!!

[Bass89]

Yes. You are the man.

[TravisMoore]

GREAT!

[synch333ronized]

I loved when you put the bass on your lap like a keyboard. Shows an element of entertainment, you know how to work the crowd.

Later.

[maddermofo]

yea!!!!!!!!!



[ryu926]

oh em gee you're fucking awsome

[monkismydog]

crazy awsome! shiggta diggta waah!

[TehZoso]

You sir, are fuckin' awsome!

Thank you for posting this.

[pigpants]

Yo man, try not to kick ass to hard in the competition you don't wanna put anyone in a wheelchair! You rock man, nice 'fro

[Jmdavis]

Great job man! This is a wonderful video on showing the world that bass is not just a guitar with 4 strings! Nice bass BTW!!!

[bassman462]

like the queen thing in there. i really need to get a loop station.
