Funk Rhodes Piano Groove: Tune 88

[Qnabber]

Mercy ! Dusting off my keyboard

[dzlvs8]

On the Fender Rhodesy...type of thing. What!? Hey nerd your really good. You need to get yourself a real Rhodes. That soft synth was pretty tame, even though the playing was nice.

[HarvestHollow]

@dzlvs8 Fuck off.

[dzlvs8]

@HarvestHollow Why? I dont thi.k you know what a joke is. i also dont think you understand what a compliment is. You're stupid. Good job on that.

[Solcius123123]

This is good, god.

[pughtube08]

sssiiiiicccckkkk! nice hommie!

[misteurwiz]

Amazing playing! Would love to see the midi file and get to understand better your playing!

[Timppapoika]

I had to watch this one five times in row. First two I was too mesmerized by your fingers running around the keys. Third time: "Man, I wish I could play the piano, but I'm nothing but a simple bass player." The fourth and fifth times I could actually listen and really appreciate the music. Very nicely done!

[paulallen34]

just love this funk stuff,any chance of doing an accurate sheet music pdf of it.thanks

[zippie41]

inspiring!



[predoje]

What digital piano is this?

[Joshizzel]

Oh right on, I have the same keyboard; and I was really digging the sounds, but did not recognize them. thank you

[Joshizzel]

Are you using a Casio Privia PX330?

[chilkari]

@Joshizzel Yes, but only for the keyboard -- not the sounds. The sounds are coming from my PC. The Privia sounds are pretty good -- but not as good as what I can get out of the PC.

[renacuajer]

@chilkari Sos muy groso!!!! ... How do you do to reduce latency playing over PC? Are you using any sound device between PC and Keyboard? ... I have installed VSTs en my PC but when I play from my USB controller the sound out delayed.

Muy bueno lo tuyo!! .. Sos Maradona!!! Gracias por compartir tu talento....abrazo

[kartikananddhar]

@renacuajer you need to change the sample rate of your device, the lower you use the less latency you will get, but audio quality will not be as good

[Joshizzel]

Which tone are you using?

[chilkari]

@Joshizzel It's actually a collection of free VST soft-synths and effects: Elec. Piano is Mr. Ray 73, run through a guitar synth called FA3Amp (Free Amp), then a vintage reverb called Voxengo OldSkoolVerb.

[mecca777]

@chilkari Mr. Ray 73, and 22...I use those too! also LoungLizard for my Rhodes'. Sounds outstanding!

[tyleryesta1]

Man you're up there with Rob A. AKA Volvoxburger.

[Marcioevendas]

você deveria colocar umas legendas em português aiiiiiiiiiiiiiii  okkkkkkkkkkkk

showwwwww de funck

[cliffkast]

Wow, you're bad, man - your timing and feel is insane! Looking forward to seeing more now.

[superhel]

One Disliker must die!

I am gonna call the Terminator, he will come back...

[solortus]

[Guillaumejazz]

Mr. Spiderhands

[Toracube]

[1995RangeRover]

I'M A FAN FOR LIFE!!! BROTHER, YOU CAN PLAY!!!!!!

[FakeCaker]

YOU WAS 13?!?

[wcgomes10]

is this rhodes sound of this keyboard?

lool

thanks.

[MarianPetrescuFan]

that guy knows phrasing!

[cc17201]

YES!!!! I found another tight piano channel!!!

[777fabulous]

Awesome chops bro.. it sounded a lil rushed to me tho. Thumbs up

[miretchin]

You were THIRTEEN!?

[MarianPetrescuFan]

u rock

[88spaces]

Jonathon, you're amazing. I wish I could play like you. I'm trying to get better. I love your work.

[PianistRudy]

You can be my teacher? :D

[tyleryesta1]

Is that sound in the Privia? what model is it? I have a px320 and the so called rhodes patch is no where near that quality.

[clothearednincompoop]

@tyleryesta1

Looks like a Privia PX-330 so maybe it's time for you to upgrade. ;-)

[tyleryesta1]

Hey thats a pretty decent Rhodes sound you got there. What keyboard is that?

[TerryMaq]

Sick groove man, you have killer chops and feel!

[djcrawleravp]

questionable performance?? are you serious?? it's perfect!!!

i enjoyed a lot!

[nicksparco]

Just one unlike: You should think about it, whoever U are ;)

[tonyknights1]

Nothing questionable about that....awesomely played...really enjoyed it thanks!

[benjaminkronborg]

Wow it sounds amazing!!! You are one of my favorite piano players :)

[giustinobarletta]

Wow compliments!!!!I like the piano sound..very cool..what its brand?Thanks for sharing!

Giustino

[cocovi]

@giustinobarletta

CASIO PX330

[jimmythesnagglepuss]

holy shit that was impressive

[zioguido]

MrRay73, right? :)

[petrumusic]

e x q u i s i t e ! We wonder which music inspires you so nicely. Happy New Year !

[brothervoodosamedi]

WOW!! thats insane, i loved it! havent heard some fender rhodes like that in a while thanks :)

i was just wondering how do you make a video like that ( you playing the guitar as well in the corner)? thanks

[YamahaDrums07]

Looks like the guy from Myth-busters

[alwayslistening4444]

Also, great job on the guitar!

[alwayslistening4444]

Awesome!!!! You are a master. I've been really getting into piano lately and you are such an inspiration. Your timing, touch, voicings, and rhythms all make it soooo funky. I feel bad if I just didn't do my research, but - YOU should put out a CD of your art. Your ways of playing over those changes are unique to you and are definitely something more musicians and listeners should hear.

[chilkari]

@alwayslistening4444 Thanks, my friend! Your "Wishing Well" remains one of my favorite original songs on YouTube. I come back to it every once in a while when I need to bring up my day, and it always does the trick.

[mrdandy7]

lovely;)

[bjiintx]

I'm just a guy who hangs out with musicians (yes-a drummer) but I REALLY dug this!!!! great job,man!

[kataiia19]

hey i was wondering- where did you learn how to improvise/solo and how old were you?...and how long did it take to you to learn how to improvise/solo to the point where you could do it and have fun(^^like that^^)

[Wildtch]

really excellent work. from your performance, I may be able to actually learn this song!

[musicmanson]

I like it a little bit slower. It is way funkier that way.

[Zarag0d]

By far my favorite jam you have done! So fun! The piano tone was a little scratchy but the playing was out of this world!

[aclose]

Questionable? Nope

This rocks.

[javontaeh12]

CRAZY RUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rebuilder11]

kick ass!!!



[Rebuilder11]

kick ass!!!

[carvalhotoze]

Hi "chilkari...thanks for share us your brilliant work... and thanks for chords on this tune

[chilkari]

@carvalhotoze No problem :) Don't forget -- I have a new channel where all new videos are going up: search for GrooveWindow - and you can get sheet music and midi files on my web site.

[Loszampo]

Oh man that's so awesome...

5 supernovas =)

[MowieOnFirePeeing]

Just a question, what key and chord progression is this? and what scales do you use for imprvising? Thanks alot.

[chilkari]

@MowieOnFirePeeing This is a slightly modified 12-bar blues progression in G. Chords are: G7, C7, G7, G7 || C7, C7, G7, G7 || Eb7, E7, F7, F#7, G7, G#7 || G7, G7, G7, G7. For scales -- it's mostly blues scales, but with some pitches taken from the various other chords, and some chromatic/half-diminished/whol­e-tone walks here and there...

[penguinxxxx]

LMAO eric funk, that is the best name ever.

[glik22]

this is casio px 330?

[chilkari]

@glik22 I'm using the Casio PX 330 as a controller, but the sounds heard here are actually a free software (VST) synth called Mr. Ray run through a software guitar effects rack to get a simulated tube amp sound. The Casio has decent e.piano sounds and a great action, but when at my PC, I do prefer the sounds I can get out of soft synths...

[baileal]

You jammed that.

[mikitos01]

yeaaaaaaa you are a sound a groovveeeeee yess congratulation

[fourbarposer]

@MusicalChemNerd there's a couple rhodes program. Google MrRay73

[helmusico]

Riff tha' Funk!!! 88!!!

[Klavitopalm]

really cool! glad you're back, it's been a while :)

[mastermecash]

you learnt this with 13 years ??? you're a genius man :D

[VOnt4rd]

Hey jonathon ! You're amazing ! This cover is just awsome. Is there any chances of hearing you playing Chicken - Jaco Pastorius?

[nunohide]

you are crazy!!! I always enjoy watching your video!

[H1j3x]

Holy mother of god!

now this is what im talking about

-bows-

[augustofretes]

Oh, damn! I love your videos.

[sniper22b]

Mega Tasty!! Loved it!

[chilkari]

@Jazzdamage !! Hey man! You and your tenor player should cover this! The original has a sax playing the lead... You guys would sound great on it..

[brooped]

Sounds pretty awesome! What's the piano you're playing with?

[chilkari]

@brooped I *just* got this casio privia px-330 piano, but the sounds are actually coming from my PC - they aren't the privia's native sounds. I'm using a great VST (softsynth) called "Mr. Ray 73" run through a tube amp/cabinet simulator called FFA. I really like the combination. By the way, the keyboard feels/plays great. And is a pretty good bargain as 88-key weighted keyboards go.

[brooped]

@chilkari Nice! I'm using a roland rd-700sx right now as it has this amazing grand piano sound and I like to have a simple setup on stage :) Not quite a bargain, but worth the money :D

[chilkari]

@brooped Yeah - those Rolands feel very solid. I definitely play the onboard sounds when I play live. They're good enough, but when at home I favor the better sounds I can get from the PC.

[omegslll]

@chilkari I'm enyoing your new video, awesome funky-rhodes playing! Very good tune. Indeed, the Privia has a nice weight in the keys. Hey Jazzdamage, Jonathon is right, you should cover this!

[eyeguard031]

pure awesomeness :D thumbs all the way up ^^

[mlavik1]

Love it!!

You really did a great verion of this song. Love you "aggressive" funk improvisation style.

[harrysharp]

Great tune Jonathon! Really enjoyed watching from an internet cafe in vietnam. In the last month I've only been able to find and play one small honky tonk out of tune piano in a tiny cafe here, so watching this is pretty cool.

[chilkari]

@harrysharp Hey Harry! Glad you could tune in, from the four corners of the earth ^^

[jazzpianobrian]

Jon, you put the F.U.N in Funk! Great sound with those classic licks. Looking forward to hearing more and seeing the new tutorials. I finally mustered up the courage to post a boogie piano clip. Check it out when you get a chance. Keep Groovin'

[chilkari]

@jazzpianobrian That is some sweet boogie! If you haven't seen it y'all, check out @jazzpianobrian's vid -- very nice stuff. Only 2 years, you say? Holy crap.

[Owersym]

Very nice !

[AnotherPCuser]

Reminds me of the game 'Transport Tycoon', they had a similar music there. :)

Greetings

[Xozny]

sounds awesome as usual, nice to hear from you again! :)

[xxVivalaResistancexx]

you could play that when you were 14!! nice.

[Schmurze]

Hey you're back ^^

[andy1w5jobas]

Sounds Brilliant!
