Improvised Funk 'n' Fusion Bass Loop Jam (envelope filter solo)

[0Neutrality0]

Hey everyone. When I play jazz I usually tapeloop myself and play over the top of it making little riffs up and playing little scales which I know sound right together. However this usually begins to sound samey after a while because I cant really improvise too well because I dont know any proper jazz scales or whatever. So can anyone help guide towards improvising freely with scales like this guy.

Thanks in advance.

What did you use for you solo?

Pentatonic scales and chords?

I must ask sir, how do you acquire that tone? I've been dying to get something like that.

@selimsucram it's a Sei bass (pronounced 'say') made by London-based luthier Martin Petersen... it's an awesome instrument!

[hairman63]

Hi Mike, great playing as always!

Oh and don't worry about the length of this piece ... i just took a short holyday just to watch this ;-)

You inspire me (and i'm shure lots of others).

[DFrancoBassplayer]

Great sound !

[DFrancoBassplayer]

[FUNKMASTERFOURTWO]

well it came out cool, rob

[Filiforme]

That left hand wishes it was a spider.

[FUNKMASTERFOURTWO]

lovely playing.. can i ask you one question, what key are playing in. cheers. so i can find that scale and try to learn it my self...

[ijazzmunki]

@FUNKMASTERFOURTWO it's a mix of G minor Dorian, D lydian and some other shit - the last chord is a C#7 so you can play all the related/altered stuff over that - I wasn't really thinking about what I was playing on this too much, just going for it and seeing came out.

[barnesybass]

great playing. it's really inspiring me to pull out my RC2 for a thanksgiving day jam.

[GatoradeIsNotJuice]

damn my brother, you are simply cookin on that groove. respect goes out to you as always.

[thereturnfc]

are u tuned to tenor tuning? "EADGC"?

[ijazzmunki]

@thereturnfc no - B- G - check the first few notes i play - that's a low D... but I do have 26 frets so I can play a high A - hoe that helps :-)

[wayne1167]

Good Stuff !  Thumbs Up !

[20AceofBass11]

Favorite video yet Mike. Doesnt seem like youre moving quite as fast and taking a bit more time on feel than theory and technique. I can dig it.

[88sublunaire]

Woooow!!!Nice playin' Man!

[omnitron1234]

Thanks for making these videos... watching you play just helps me imagine myself older playing things like this, on a bass as awesome as yours. You're an original inspiration to me, thanks again.
