bass fill school - lesson # 2

[FliBaleon]

and that seems like a good posture???

[mjunhy7]

great but its NOT a lesson, its more like, do this...

[musiccalgary]

Is there really a School for Bass Fills? Accredited? If there is I'd like to be on their volleyball team

[MikeTheTeacher]

Great groove; I got it without tab, but you may want to slow it down to half speed one more time, I know that sounds exceedingly slow, but sometimes with those awesome quick runs we have to crawl before we can walk before we can run. Awesome groove.

Would you do the same/similar for the II and V? And please, more.

[TallGuitarBoy]

This lick is insane. I can do the left hand with no problem but my right hand fingering isn't that fast. Got any r-hand exercises?

[bbBassYo]

@TallGuitarBoy Just Start slow, Work your way up. :)

[nolan3620]

Marlowe, this is so hot. I can do the left hand no problem, but my right hand fingers don't go that fast. Got any exercises for right hand finger speed? You are Amazing!

[Caquinhocc]

Hello Marlowe, could you tell me your set on this vid? You use a Fender Jazz Standard? any gain/boost/filter pedal? I've searched around at your vids 'n' website and didn't see it. On this video you reach the sound i'm looking for.

I'm a great appreciator of your stuff, keep grooving man.

Thanks a lot...

[sehnsucht77]

marlowe, you use flatwounds on your pbass all the time?

[MarloweDK]

@sehnsucht77 No, these was roundwounds at the time of the video, but right now its strung with nylons

[dobbygiless09]

Love those fills...Gives the sound that extra funk lift!

[UltimateMauno]

Is there tabs to this anywhere? I can't get how is this done by listening this, I have played just for a year, and this is too complicated for me to listen. If someone can play this by listening, I would be very pleased if you could send me the tabs. Thanks! =)

[hawttgoat]

@UltimateMauno tell me if u ever find tabs for this, thank u

[bbBassYo]

@UltimateMauno Cmon man, he does like an EXTRA slowmo version at the end.. just watch and listen:)

[Dkbass0]

I love your P, you should use it more!

[Inkawgneegrow]

that stuff is really cool. do you have any videos with explanations for "beginners"? i have good technique but my bass player theory is a little suspect... i'm more of a guitar player you see... :-)

[nanda7509]

hello can any1 tell me how to identify the scale of a song just by playing it? by listening and not referring to tabs?..i guess ear training is a necessity...

[saudara83]

MarloweDK is AWESOME!!!!!

[hailmetal16]

Man, that was great. Since I'm self taught, i've been working on technique and not theory, do you know any site that could help me out?

[matthewosewelig]

im exactly the same, if u find any help pls tell me

[hailmetal16]

I'll be sure to, bud

[hawttgoat]

@hailmetal16 hey, did u ever find tabs for this fill? i know its been a long time, but im self taught as well.

[hailmetal16]

no man, lol.

I've strayed away from Jazz/funk for a while.

I've been attempting to learn music by the band named "psyOpus"

[david0551]

that suck i cant see anything

[apelsinljuice]

see!? use your EARS, man! this is MUSIC (you know, that stuff you LISTEN to)

[david0551]

do you mean that i shall know all tabs with just using my ears?? It would be ok if it didnt was a lesson!! This is no lesson

[FaLaTiCi]

MY cock is better then you!!!!!!

[cowboykittycat]

hell ya

[shotinacondom]

took me a lil bit but i got it. NICE!

[andrecbass]

Cara tu e todos os teus vídeos são ótimos, tenho aprendido muito, sou teu fã!!!! valeu!!!!!!!!!!!

[willsonproductions]

here do you get those drum beats at a yeah i am a fellow musicion

[markfsy]

I heard that fill some time ago on an ATK demo, and I've spent hours trying to work it out. Now by chance I find the author of it on Youtube!. Thanks for playing the fill slowly at the end too - I'd got it nearly right, but nearly isn't good enough - that is jaw-droppingly hot!

Mark

[MarloweDK]

Just curious - what ATK demo?

[markfsy]

I don't know if you got my other mails - if you give me an address, I'll send you a copy of it. It certainly sounds like you, although pkayed at a different tempo.

Cheers

Mark

[pipolo82]

I love u BASSman!!!!

[sebajo82]

Oh,Man! that fill in 0:07 kills me! You are so groovy.....amazing!

[jimbo303030]

nice econoimical playing so hard to keep the hands tight and loose to the fret board if you know what i mean

[liamemac]

just discovered you, you are the man, makin it look so easy!

[MuseMatt]

I'm glad you don't post tabs! This really trains both my solfege and technique :D Well done!

[blink182andsum41rock]

tight as a otters arse mate

[goodbuddysal]

those active pick ups? Also, you using any effects, preamp? I am learning. help a chick out. I learn ALOT from you.

[MarloweDK]

So you're pulling the "chick" routine on me;-)

But read my channel info, it's all there....

It's good my stuff are helping people out :-)

[chamagol22]

hahahahah only stupid people that are really desperate pull the chick routine

[canvoodoo]

love that fill and the slur at the end sublime mate

[ewoe21]

I thought I had it until you slowed it down.(close but no cigar) Now I know i have it ! Cool riff thanks for slowing it down you saved me alot of time .

[bassisette]

This one is a bit hard for me at first. But the more difficult, the more I like it. Hhehehe.. Glad you showed the slower tempo. Still practicing up to reach your speed. Thanks!

[zelada03]

nice playing really clear, and nice technique as well. you earn my respect....

[calnewby]

that fill is tight

[fatoche89]

Nice playing.

[greenfuzzer]

yeah!! this fill is featured in another of your videos and I tried for a long time to copy what you were doing, but it was played too fast for me to pick it up. I even dragged the recording into garageband to slow it down but that didn't work & I couldn't figure it out.

thank you MarloweDK!

[zaksnaporaz]

cool, really cool ! ...your finger position is like on the bridge pickup of a j-bass: doesn't it bother you not to have a thumb-rest ?  I'd like to hear what would be the tone of the same lick but played above the pickup...

[BennyLove517]

I was out running errands with a friend so I wasn't on the ball... I like it, nice groove. Does your box have any cd inputs? It would be cool to hear some Jazz Blues stuff with you playing along side!

[shinzip]

hey, I'm the first this time.

again, thanks so much for all your vids. I learn so much from them.

suppose it's getting hot there too, huh?

keep on grooving~

[MarloweDK]

Yeah, summer is here :-)
