The riffs at 2:47 and 3:00 made me tingle. And once it hit 3:28, I was in auditory heaven. Fantastic work, you knocked it out of the park. This is sitting right in my music playlist :)
i honestly thought you were playing to the real orig recording. Then when the vocals never came in I wonder how you got the instrumental. Then saw the whole thing was remade. Excellent job. :) early-mid 80's funk is the best for me too.
My only criticism is that this bass could be fatter. Even if you account for all the enhancements of a professional studio, I am guessing your settings are different from the original, which uses a Minimoog. I can only guess maybe your filter or emphasis is too high.
Not in any way a reflection on your skills, which are considerable.
Hey, great cover, really good. Everything is perfect, especially the bassline ^^
I have a question though, what did you use for the choir at the beginning ? there is an envelope trick but which one ? and from what is it coming ? synclavier ? or may be your own voice ? thx
"watch out for those glisses!" lol- i found this independently of our scritti conversations, and realized it was you only after watching, duh! Figures we have the same tastes as usual- this is my FAVE MJ tune cause of the rhodes chords and the MOOG BASS, mate!
This is a masterpiece from begining to end. Wow. In fact each one of your videos are miniature masterpieces onto themselves. Hats off man, you are a true talent!!
As you can read from your cheeks from 4:03 to 4:18 this is the best part and seems to be a lot fun to perform. I wish I could do this. If you do a 120 fps video it might be possible....
It fascinated how light do You play all this licks. Very precise and fat this licks and You play it so easy and light. Great! And all this ghost notes and interesting rhytmical-percussive solutions. Respect man :).
Great performance Geene! The coda part is fantastic. Really concert feeling. James Ingram? Are You sure? I thought the Minimoog-Bass-Player was on P.Y.T. Greg Philingenes...
Bro----you are a VERY BAD MAN!! MAD Props on this! The synth sounds during the hook are SPOT ON!! Awesome job! God bless!

It's a vocal sample combined with a bell type sound, set to legato and with portamento.

MJ would´ve worked with you, thats for sure...so much details, so much love, so much heart....
or like bruce said, "You don't listen to the equipment, you listen through the equipment." ...
you really do a great job! you could go on tour with your repertoire!
it would be fantastic to hear your sound (moog, proph. 5) through a big PA System

Respect, this is great--I love the feel and sense of phrasing you are bringing, and the whole production is superb.
At the coda I think I see a big grin on your face too, which kind of says it all really.

Thanks mate...
The only explanation I have for my rhythmic playing and ghost notes is because I am originally a drummer.
Playing the bass on a synthesizer is a whole new thing for me and a great new adventure and venture.
It's really like having a 44 note drumkit.
They're just switches, so there's no need to bang them.
The Minimoog's envelopes are also super tight and snappy, which is great for those ghost notes.
I think bassplayers call them "Stop Notes".

No, I'm not sure, it's a guess.
Some licks are very similar to Yah Mo Be There, which James Ingram plays.
