The fact that he is not afraid to share so much with us is out of this world. He is crafting the next generation of musicians into independant artists just like he did himself, being his own teacher. Thank God for people like Jacob, he gives us so much hope.
It's funny how listening to one of the most intelligent musicians of this planet makes me want to grab any instrument i can find and play it with the joy and curiosity of a child. True inspiration.
You know...I can follow along to every word he is saying. At no point was I confused during this....not because I'm a master at music theory and dictation...but because of how he explained his through process. Adam Savage is the only other person who can explain the beyond complex things they do, with so much passion behind their words that even new to the topic, i could grasp it.
I love that this video shows glimpses of his pure genius thinking at a million miles an hour :) All he has to do is share a thread of his musical thought and people are captivated
Slow down Jacob, slow down. Not everyone has the same enthusiasm and passion to stay with you... All god, all good. It is really fascinating hearing you talk about all of these discoveries. Great to have someone explaining what' s mesmerizing about grooves like from D' Angelo - Questlove once explained this by draging the beat behind the rest of the band - Jacob goes way further and dives deep into the ocean of poly rhythm.
Massive talent... British roots (which explains the adept musical ability - not as prevalent in the USA) Energetic!!! Handsome and personable Jacob - thanks so much!
Wow muchas gracias!! Cada vez me fascina más Jacob, y cada vez aprendo más con el, siempre tiene algo que contar. Muchas gracias por grabar esto y publicarlo para que el mundo lo pueda ver, es magnífico.
The piano is a tempered system. For major chords, the third is generally sharp, and for minor chords, the third is generally flat, even if the piano is perfectly in tune. There is a really interesting book on harmony that talks about this a bit: Harmonic Secrets of Arabic Music Scales: Fine Tuning the Maqams [Book] With fretless strings, wind instruments, and singing groups (among others), people with a good ear for tuning will generally hear this and will adjust accordingly without knowing it. It's very subtle, but it makes all the difference.
Pienso que pudieron haber hecho esto: mientras que el estuviera hablando el intérprete en simultáneo podría escribir al menos las frases más trascendentales a través de un computador y que se pudieran proyectar en una pantalla grande para que todos leyeran en español lo que hubiera dicho en toda la conferencia
vico 10x el traductor interpretó toda la master class. Lo que pasa es que están editadas sus intervenciones para que el video sea más dinámico. Habría que agregar los subtítulos pero todavía nadie se ha atrevido 🤣🤣
Jacob is a human being who L O V E S music. I do too. But Jacob is a devotee of music....and his love and infectious generousity is damn infectious. I love this guy.....whenever I feel stuck creatively I like watching his stuff, because is startles me out of that numb feeling.
The whole talk of the piano being out of tune really hit me, cause the lead guitarist of chili peppers would actually change his B string based on how he wanted it to sound which is why some of the songs actually sound better. I honestly do the same by accident allll the time lol. I tune it by ear and then plug it in to test tuning and im alwayys lower on the B. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Daw93bRHe4Y.html
With his whole conversation about rigidity in time with music, I wonder what his thoughts on super tight Minneapolis type funk would be. Somebody like Cory Wong, where the whole band is calibrated in tight 16th's for most of their grooves.
Great point about micro-tones and how out of tune pianos must be in order to be correctly (incorrectly) tuned. Bach was certainly the wily genius composer. But even he knew that his equal temperament was merely a compromise. After all, practically adapting to the fact that claviers tended to sound in tune in some keys but not in tune in other keys was the whole idea. And another fine point about how the most genuinely in-tune and rhythmically distinctive (dynamic, in-harmonic-context) pitches and rhythmic forms tend to be anything but simplistically symmetrical. The "rolling egg" was an apt metaphor. The oddly asymmetrical cognitive-science-empowered truth is that forms consisting of perfectly equidistant characteristics tend to be desensitizing whereas mathematically and artistically meaningfully oddly configured characteristics tend to stimulate. So a hearty, asymmetrical and not even remotely equidistant thank you for understanding what is to many a rather arcane subject. As a violinist, violist and cellist who likes to think outside of the peg-box, I wouldn't mind jamming with this seriously musical artist.

Random note, but that is so clever! When people don't stop clapping, you clap with them, but you slowly slow down your clap until you stop completely and the people stop with you!
THAT'S SO COOL!!! When he joins in on clapping and then stops, the audience stops with him 😱 I never thought about that dude 😂 this guy is insanely smart
Scales/Tuning being out of tune is why John Frusciante makes his guitar "out of tune" for songs like Scar Tissue. Flattens the G to make the chords right, which makes other chords wrong.
You mean his b string being slightly sharp so the high A he plays on it creates a just intonated internal with the F? It does sound great, but his guitar tech recently revealed it was accidental
Gracias por editar el interprete fuera del video lo máximo posible, los videos que incluyen el interprete repitiendo lo que se dice cortan el rollo totalmente 👍 Y para la gente que dice que no sabe inglés: ponte la TV en v.o. En 6 meses sabes ingles, hecho.
nsuzjznamalPg48e8 espabila un poco, usa la intuición, eso es lo que puedes hacer por tu líder. Y me parece que soy un lider justo: sólo te he pedido hacer cosas que son buenas por tu propio bien.
Y si te parece que saber qué es VO es saberlo todo es que estas en un nivel cultural bastante bajillo. Yo no sé casi nada, y para ti soy un rey. Lo cual comparativamente hablando es completamente cierto.
nsuzjznamalPg48e8 me halaga que me trates de vos y sigas hablando de cómo ser tu líder, eso significa que realmente lo tienes en la cabeza. Soy un líder magnánimo, un líder ejemplar. Estás a mis órdenes.
nsuzjznamalPg48e8 el que se ha quedado sin palabras eres tu, que en vez de pensar una respuesta me dices que me he quedado sin palabras. Eres tu el que no ha respuesto. Espabila.
Sorry Jacob, we don’t play wonky in Salsa! The Tumbao bass “is”a big 3 (or 6) over straight time. Swing can be implied in the patterns but they’re generally sharp and straight.
@@nempla Me gustaría colaborar añadiendo los subtítulos, sin embargo parece que la opción de añadir subtítulos está desactivada. No me aparece la pestaña en esta serie de videos y sí en otros.
