Anyone can improvise (If you know this trick) 

I'd like to add You Are In My System - The System

Thank you!

Great suggestion!! I love this!

Completely! Great suggestion -

I've been using a corgi Kronos and it's got loads of brilliant funk sounds. easy to find. And you can use the internal wah effects.

Jamison Bennett Yep... me here :) Happy that the music is helping you out. Keep at it!

groovewindow thanks man! Dont mean to fanboy here, but it is pretty awesome to get a reply from the guy who's music is sitting on my roland! Thanks! Keep em comin! Love the d minor groove!

Hi Roman! You're English is perfectly good! Many people have asked for a tutorial (and sheets) for Tune 88. I'll add it to the list, and hopefully get to it fairly soon. I'm trying to be more regular and have a list of videos that are already in the works, but I should get to that one eventually. Thank you for your comment!

Thanks for the answer. I'm looking forward to these notes, I tried to record the part of the keys of this track, but I ran into the problem that I do not have a guitar and drums and I can not write them down. If you can then lay out a batch of drums and guitars (backing track without the keys). Nevertheless, I continue to learn funk for your videos. These videos help in learning. They bring a lot of benefit. Later, when you have time to make a video on Tune 88, I'll test my skill - as I've listened to the notes of the keys

It's a pure midi controller - and makes no sounds on its own, so you have to plug it into something else - either a computer, or if you have them - hardware synths with MIDI input work too. But it doesn't have any onboard sounds.

Hey Eli! (Thank you for your kind words!). Sight reading: It's a good skill to have. As to how important it is? It depends. I know several amazing musicians who don't read much at all. They have incredible ears and a great mental model for theory, and they get by fine in the styles they play (more contemporary styles) without needing to read. However, written music is the most efficient way for one musician to communicate to another what the intention is, so as you begin to play with more varied groups of people, being able to have this common language (written music) just makes the communication of ideas much faster. Of course, "sight reading" is another notch beyond "reading at all." I'd say that the further you progress the more important it will be to be a good reader -- at some level, it just becomes assumed that not only can you read, but you can (for the most part) play it fairly close on a first reading -- all depending... There are always going to be some super technical passages that even the best players have to woodshed a bit to get under their fingers. But all of this varies greatly depending on whether you're getting together with some buddies in your garage (probably doesn't matter at all) versus getting paid to fly out and perform in a show, where there will be one rehearsal prior to said show -- and you'll get the music at that rehearsal. Probably good to be a pretty hot reader for that gig!

groovewindow Thank you very much for the reply! Now that I look at it circumstantially it makes sense that the importance of sight reading really just depends on the specific scenario, meaning it's better to just be good at it in the first place. Sight reading is definitely my weakest point (although it is improving due to daily practice) regardless of a good understanding of music theory and improv/compositional skills. That is why I asked. Part of me wants to just tell myself that sight reading is not all that necessary but I know deep down I gotta keep getting better at it😁 and you just helped solidify that. Anyways thanks for the response and keep grooving! I look forward to more videos!!

He actually posted this video the day before mine :D
