It's great to see a pro using a normal amount of strings and slowing down in his vids not some £5,000, 6 string tree trunk hanging off some guys chin being played at a million miles an hour.
I have just turned 17 and I am a girl and I have pick up two of your bass licks including this one I hope, to learn more from you. ( HAVENT PLAYED IT AS FAST AS YOU YET BUT i GOT A DESCENT RHYTHM)
Greetings Marlowe!, Can I ask , did you change your pre map in your Marcus Miller...?...I see it has 4 black knobs instead of the 2 black 2 chrome knobs. Which pre amp did you go for ? as I am looking to change mine in my Marcus Miller.
Hey marlowe do you anchor your thumb or like let it slightly hover but at the same time still keep it so that it blocks and mutes the other strings so that they dont accidentally ring out, basically i just wanna kno what you do with the right hand technique
You have to produce some the best bass licks on youtube, they're all so funky and smooth... But dude, where are your funky glasses?! I thought their thick rims GAVE you the funk... Hope I can play like you someday man :D
Funk on! (I said the word funky/funk 6 times if you count just then lol)
At first i was like damn..what a beautiful Jazz ..oh yeah it's a Marcus Miller. Then i'm like shiii Marlowe is styleing...nice..look. Nice lick Marlowe.
Okay fair enough, i guess I'm like that too, however, if you were to choose five or so bassists that you like at the moment, besides yourself of course, who would you pick?
I don't play the bass, and I also play the guitar, and I'm not able to do that riff!
Before knowing theses videos, I hate Bass and bassists, I thought they weren't important. Since I've seen Marlowe's videos, I can't imagine a rock band without bass! I can't imagine me without a bassist!
@MjaTheNoob Stanley Clarke was a master long before Marlowe so maybe Marlowe is Stanley Clarking the bass. :-) Or Jacoing the bass etc. Give the old masters their due. Without them Marlowe wouldn't be what he is. Or Wooten etc for that matter.
No I didn't or you wouldn't have said those great bassists were "marloweing" the bass. MarloweDK is a super bassist technically but compared to the careers and achievements of the bassists you mentioned he can't compare.
So? Some of the best bassists ever are guys who have never been discovered because theyre unlucky, unwilling to sell out, or from a different country where music isnt like it is in the US.
Marlowe has done lots in Europe, most of which we never hear of here in the States.
First, i freaked out and called my friends in one big video call saying that this video was SPECTACULORZ.
And then, we all watched it together and jizzed all our pants at the same time and because of that ,and all the positive energy being send into the cosmic, there is world peace now and every badguy dropped dead.
But then, i woke up, smelling like shit, looking like shit, smoked my last sigarette and found out i'm impotent.

from now on:
whenever I see someone playing awesome bass, they are in fact, "marlowing" to bass.
Victor Wooten marlowes the bass.
Stanely Clark marlowes the bass.
MarloweDK marlowes the bass.
MjaTheNoob 2 years ago 2
@MjaTheNoob Stanley Clarke was a master long before Marlowe so maybe Marlowe is Stanley Clarking the bass. :-) Or Jacoing the bass etc. Give the old masters their due. Without them Marlowe wouldn't be what he is. Or Wooten etc for that matter.
