This is possibly the best case I've heard anyone make for music theory. I agree on every level. Everybody should listen to this and take it to heart.

Your presentation is immaculate. Especially with those delightful bass notes used as periods at the end of a paragraph. I could listen to you talk about anything. So glad I found your channel. Greetings from Germany. By the way, I'm a prime example for a platauing musician. My technical ability has improved tremendously over the years, but I'm still musically illiterate and have next to no theory knowledge. When learning to play a new piece of music, I always do it by ear. Works fine for some stuff, especially technical music like Meshuggah or Tool, where there's a discernable "right" and "wrong" way to play it. But I'm having a hard time learning for instance Chili Peppers tunes, because I get confused by the harmonic complexity. And it isn't even that complex to begin with. It's just that I haven't developed this theoretical, in a way "surgical", understanding of music and stay mostly inside or close to my comfort zone. You convinced me to expand my musical horizon. Thank you!

Thank you. You are in a very common situation. Using your ear is great and highly encouraged. Others make the mistake on the other end only learning theory and not developing their ear. It's also easy to get sucked into learning a lot of technique and not knowing how to apply it. To me, it's all about achieving a balance of all of these things in order to express what you want to express musically. If you only develop one piece, you will stumble somewhere. It's up to you if that stumbling matters or not. If you can express yourself like you want, then you are successful. If you can't, you need to keep learning and discover what you are missing. Be sure to check out www.studybass.com. There's a lot there that isn't on KZitem. Tschüss!

This is true. When I first started playing music, I was OK. But then when I learned music theory, I was able to make more sense of things and now when I go back and listen to songs, now I start to listen for things that the average listener doesn't pick up right away. Another subject though: When are you going to talk about bending and vibrato?

Great video! I wanted to ask you a question: I'm a guitarist but I'm trying to learn bass and I can't seem to get rid of the squeaky sounds when moving from fret to fret. Is it something I can tune in the amp settings or is it about fretting technique?
@StudyBass
4 жыл бұрын
Thanks! String noise comes from a combination of lot of things: string type (roundwounds squeak more than flatwounds, try semi-rounds, compression-wound, or similar); dry skin; EQ settings (try rolling off above 5kHz or so); compression may bring up the noise; and poor fingering choices (shifting more than necessary). Some noise is to be expected--it's part of the character of the instrument. It shouldn't be distracting.

@@StudyBass Thank you! Yeah I don't want to get rid of all the noise, just the annoying squeaks, nothing that hurts the sound of the bass. I tried the EQ thing yesterday and it really helped. I'm still working on my fingering but I'll also look into string types. Once again thank you so much!!!

Well, classical musicians study theory extensively.. How many of them are creative? But I am guessing by theory you mean something very spesific, like chord progression for example 😊
