[paroelius]

just checking in after so many month,s.your still great my friend.

[BLDbassist]

how long did it take for you to learn how to slap like that? i mean. because when i slap, i keep hitting 2 strings instead of 1 only.

[Tobi1202]

Godt gået mand!

[silver7ism]

[marcello1993ful]

you're great! is that a deluxe jazz bass or simply a fender jazz bass?

[VenousPlatypus]

Hey Marlowe, if any, what effects and/or filters are u using for this amazing sound?

Thanks,  Gage

[weber1215]

[airraidsiren82]

[tutten321]

der er ikk nogle bassister der er bedre end victor wooten:D

[MarloweDK]

@tutten321 En lidt "børneagtig" måde at stille det op på, med at bruge "den bedste i verden" sammenligninger:-) Der er mange af "den bedste" inden for forskelige stilarter, måde at spille på etc...

[emilos911]

@MarloweDK du benægter dog ikke,.. battle head to head med les claypool?? ;)

[emilos911]

@MarloweDK du benægter dog ikke,.. battle head to head med les claypool?? ;) also, great playing! :)

[Weitug]

@tutten321 Ville nok sige Flea er den bedste "slapper"

[tutten321]

det kan godt være mark king louis johnson er gode men de er ikk bedre end victor wooten

[etimat71]

can i know what is your inspiration, wich bassist

my favourite is surely jaco pastorius and marcus miller, but there is other like wooten, not so much clarke, but... what's yours???

[MultiCyke]

nice line!!

[wampa4321]

Good funk!!! Very good!!!

[tk4bass]

Nice job, sounds great!

[Bluesquidharry]

the first thing i thought was 'flea's dad' e_o wtf flea's like 80

[Chewbaca18]

If you guys wanna see even better bass playing on youtube, look up DavidSinRocks. Best bass covers on YouTube.

[bacshit]

@Chewbaca18 is right !

just watch and listen what David can do with his bass...

even LIVE he is unbelievable /watch?v=rN2wsKGcZFY

[Tubesockmanifesto]

Sounds like Seinfeld but on super sterioids, god job

[candyfunk]

grooooooooooooooooooooove :O)

[icannotfalter]

surprised to see you using your hands :P

[SLiMxShANuS]

youve def the nicest groove of all the bass players ive seen, the technique is there, but a catchy groove first and foremost

[furycross]

Something about that sexy slap bass sound that drives me insane. i so love it

[schofizzl]

0:43 thats what i like to hear. nice work, layin down a groove but not just trying to show off or play stuff that you can barely do like most of the other bass videos around

[RageicaNiels]

your so good you can play in your sleep ;) amazing

[BigSima6]

i love the grit on this bass. sounds awesome!!

[smhlancer85]

[smhlancer85]

[FunnyMovieMonster]

fender jazz-bass nice

[SpinoFromParis]

Wooow niiice song and nice level !!

[roberrockstar]

that's what i call a good grooveee

[MrCaillou33]

Nice =)

[69erthx1138]

Funk-O-licious! Marlowe your slapping tone is so damn perfect.

[eBaSsplAyEr94]

nice playing:)....but ur drum beats are not very creative^^ would sound better with a nice drum groove

[yamakasko]

So that's why it's called "slap bass jam" not anything else ;)

[sportfucking]

coool :)

[BrandRozic]

Nice jam +5 stars!

[BassApp]

J'adore !!

[elbota24]

[diaryofthedead]

[thesplage]

Now THAT is feel.

[Lootercris]

Hey duude !

I just love your playing, and I am a great fan of yours..

And a little word from me, a guy from frederikssund, denmark:

seriøst, du styrer for vildt ! du er fedeste danske bassist jeg nogen sinde har hørt, og jeg er stolt over at bo i et land hvor vi kan "fremdyrke " musiske vidundere som dig! I min verden er du lige så god som Mark King, Louis Johnson og alle de andre!

og lige til sidst.. bor du i københavn ?

[MarloweDK]

Det er pænt af dig, men klap lige hesten:-) Og ja jeg bor i København

[diaphanoux]

nice end!!!

[yawgmoth69]

this is something i never see. you're slapping, but you're taking it easy also. you play with a confidence that is both visual, and heard in your playing. I really enjoy your playing!

[lasvoctorioustion]

yo i just got to say this is sum dope shit you put together homie, love the funky bass lines. keep it up

[Brayden2002]

I have Watched alot of your Vids. And i just wanted to say Thankyou Very much You have helped me tremendiously. My theroy is very weak. When you slow down your licks in the middle of your Jams has been the key for me. You Absalutly Rock and I am a Great Fan!!

[FaLaTiCi]

This is slap???? cccccccccccchehehehehehehe

[tyjacks]

What affect are you using on this vid.

[ChrisFreek]

Sounds like chorus and compression to me mate.

[Tuxks]

master !

[samszeman]

great jam dude!

feelin the bass vibe

[lbarber357]

how about teaching me how to play "If you want me to stay" by Sly and The Family Stone? PLEASE!

[Redcoat66]

Size of this guys hands!

[luisbass86]

[Poppejazzmanbass]

[blacksabbath82190]

[HonorableJ]

Cool. Very nice.

[mter1985]

Awesome! I am a chicago area jazz/blues/funk guitar palyer working on a new recording project that is groove based fusion. Thanks for all of the inspiration. You are a master!

[MarloweDK]

youre most welcome

[turydragon]

sweet bass , what year is it?

[sswindgassen]

i have the same feeling of hopelessness in trying to think of a compliment that hasn't been said a hundred times as i do when i pick up my bass after listening to you... ;-)

[bluescatt]

Well it looks like my 2nd and finale bass is headed to the wood pile for fire wood! thanks! you are the man, keep on making videos i know you are inspiring a lot of bass players. I try to play along with you every day. The key word being TRY.

[Rush1986bass]

You are in my opinion the best funk bassist and bass player on this website.

[Baekki]

I totally agree with you!

[AwesomeVideosHere]

I'm with Rush1986bass!

[FlanaganMike]

I hate you!!

it looks like you are playing what u just think right before.dont know if im clear enough,it seems that u can play all that your brain just made up...

By the the im french so its hard to express myself in english.

[MarloweDK]

to flanaganmike:

I wish it was so, but not quite there yet:-)

[rakmanenuff2]

Flanagan. A French Irishman? Yeah I know what you mean, those improvised fills were tight.

But anyway, if someone gets to the point where they can play everything that's in their brain, then....

it's time for them to expand their thinking, seriously.

[bobek3x]

Haha,We are just having fun wit my band pretending we are coming from States cause here in France people are just interessted in American RnB...so we made these name up to make fun of them.

By the way i get what you meant exept -expand their thinking-...Like think about more interesting things?

[WhosTardus]

Im gonna go on and put "great job as usual", but you already know that :) Im courious though, what other instruments do you play?

[MarloweDK]

to whosTardus:

I can "play" very simple guitar, and some piano chords , thats about it

[Flowflo78]

OMG! I'm a beginner bassist, and you look extremely skilled. Wanna play as you can !

But anyway, i have a question : I own a Cort Action Bass and a lil' kustom 10W amp'. I wanna know if I'm just to bad to make proper slap, or if my material is not good for slapping, because when I try to slap, it sounds bad.

[MarloweDK]

to Flowflo:

How should I know, I cant hear you very well;-)

But reg your bass, have fairly fresh strings and your action low.

[xiz90]

I tried slapping on a Cort action bass a long time ago and its hard to slap on it for a beginner. Something that would help is to lower the strings.

[snigeln2]

there's the slicklick again! :P In the video where you talk about the blues-scale you mention a lick that you use all the time. thats the slicklick. if you play in A its D C D E C A. And also you F*ckin rock man! When are you gonna do Havona? :P

[MarloweDK]

to snigeln:

Yeah, you're right , that'smy slicklick! :-D

[DarenSirboughMusic]

man great playing. you can hear the marcus miller influence in your playing. sounds great and all the licks are crisp as well.

[luthor1356]

Always very good, but your jams are similar, especially for the rhythm.

[MarloweDK]

to luthor1356:

Yes, its my style;-)

[moomoocajoo]

love the double stops and the muting is spot on as usual. Incredible!

[Joppesan]

Uha da. Sikke fint

[pyropranker]

Very nice.

[Nivtop2112]

First time I get to comment first on your vids. Love the red bass...
