I genuinely dont understand why some people dont like jazz especially stuff like this thats just so happy and so organic, its not too square but its also not too hip its just happiness
@@mertgulec7541 I think it's more so like Jazz usually uses greater harmonic vocabulary, so the best comparison I have is if a novel uses incredibly rare and academic words to express itself. For example, most books might have written "The silence was deafening," but Jazz would be the book that writes "The draconic cacophony of silence was of the most extraordinary verisimilitude."
It's the sort of genre that the more you listen to it, the more you 'get it' and the more you like it, so initially people are put off. You also appreciate it more as a musician.
@@alfredfind1219no no it’s perfectly safe. It uses something that goes by many names such as false folds, vestibular folds, false cords, or vesticular folds. They may hurt for the first few days you use them as they aren’t used to being used but after that it should be free sailing. Unless they continue to hurt then reevaluate what you’re doing. But you should learn it’s a joy
For anyone who might not know, this tune is using a common set of chord changes called "Rhythm Changes" because they are borrowed from a tune called "I Got Rhythm". It makes the title "Laughing in Rhythm" that much better
2:08 this right here probably has to be one of the most interesting vocals I’ve ever heard It’s almost eerie how in tune his voice is with how his Bass is, down to the timbre
This is called the "Hum-along Bass" technique and it's really difficult to do. He's hearing what he wants to play in his head - what notes he's going to play, singing them, and hitting them all at once. Slam Stewart did also use this, as well as the more modern Avery Sharpe (who I've met and who is the nicest person!). Guitarists also use this. It's really cool! Jazz is neat.
Absolutely the most contagious laugh I've ever heard in my life. Seriously guys if you're having an awful day or are feeling anxious about the state of the world just come and join this guy laughing with his big ole' bass!!
I am a Metal guy but damn.. Why do people disrespect jazz so much? It's a totally unique and relaxing style. This is something I will never understand.
as a double/upright bass player these always make me so happy, because in most other things we're so underrated but jazz WORSHIPS us it's great, i feel so appreciated in jazz music c':
When I listen to jazz like this, I focus primarily on the bass and the drums, especially if the instruments are acoustic and the volume is low. It reminds me of the saying, "If you want to get somebody's attention, just whisper." Bass players DO make a huge difference. As a jazz drummer, I speak from experience. @@cosmic7127
I wish life was like this long. Happy. Everybody laughing. And people love it. Sady. Its about money, religion etc etc all that stuff. This song is happy, upbeat, anx lively. I love it!
I'm mostly epic melodic metal guy (even write some myself), but I do love any real music that has love and talent put into it, and this is a masterpiece!
Most of these moments happen when they get together for fun and their is no large audience to appreciate. As a jazz drummer, I've been there, done that. I love these guys!
I watched this musical mastery severally; and with each successive one, came a better and more pleasing appreciation of the whole. What a masterpiece!!!
There are truly only 2 kinds of people, People who like Jazz and people who don't admit they like jazz. Also at 2:18 he litteraly went and got natural autotune, he is talented as hell
As a (world famous) concert/festival/pool party musician, this is good. Really good. I mean, as an upright bassist/pianist/kazooist/peepeepoopooist you have to appreciate the sheer talent that is portrayed incredibly effortlessly.
His laugh sounds like it's from a stern older character in a drama movie, that's sitting on some repressed enotions, and only through forming a genuine connect with the protagonist does he allow himself to laugh for the first time in years.
