(Red Hot Chili Peppers) When John Frusciante Made His Guitar Sound Like A Synth! (Flea And Chad Smith Created A Mesmerizing Rhythm!!!) #JohnFrusciante #Flea #ChadSmith #RedHotChiliPeppers Partner: @PortalRHCP - (Instagram).
Actually, I find this jam one of the better examples of how Flea very obviously leads Chad into what he wants to play. Chad just has to recognize it and follow Flea's rhythm. Chad's exceptionally good at that though.
Its crazy as a musician how they all equally play at the same volume and intensity but no one takes away from the other. True musician ship and chemistry.
I don't know what the hell that was... But there needs to be a whole lot more of it in the world. Frusciante never fails to blow me away. Flea and Chad can build a foundation like no one else. LONG LIVE RHCP.
There are some bands mainly in the rock trans fusion genre who create vibes like this... dark and dirty.. the disco biscuits are one of the originators and the best... especially back in the day
Well, it already has a lot of experimental bands that did way more forward thinking and impressive effects in 70s and 80s that were a clear influence on Frusciante playing on this video
The chemistry these three share is undeniable; their music is like moving water in a stream, always changing, gently reacting to each other as it flows along.
John transcends the different styles and eras of guitar playing. He could have been a legend during Hendrix years, could have done something in the 80s like Knopler and of course the 90s and still expanding all the sounds of his works two decades in 2000s. Would have been an icon on the original Woodstock stage too. 🌟
yeah the title made me laugh. reads like "that one time John made his guitar sound like a synth." And tbh it never sounded super synthy in the video lolol
@@denaaa1985 its actually pretty good stuff its crazy how i thought it mighta been a phase hed grow out of after a few projects but the dude found a new outlet and its parta who he is now
@@atravelerofbothtimespace4172 ah, sorry, most of his songs are just annoying boring noises. Well, John is not known by his eletronic stuff by a reason...
Somewhere in the crowd is a sixteen year old me. My ears were ringing for fucking houuuuurssss after this show. My first festival, my first time seeing the Peppers. Good times. Bring your earplugs kids
Wow this is way darker and a more sinister sound then the chili peppers we know, it gives you an idea of where these 4 men took this band in a different universe
Only from the Chili's ? 😂😂😂 What about hands down from the whole world.. 😂best guitarist ever. Hendrickx ,yes Jimi paige , clapton , van Halen... All my respect. Those guys all have amazing talent. But they are all founders from another generation, wich I admire a lot en be very thankfull..But John F. is from an other era...He can litrarly do anything just the same , then those legends could. But sometimes even better. Would Hendricks or Paige pull off what John F does ? And im not talking about Technic or notes solos... They all can yes. It's about the emotions , timing and hitting the core of the soul
It's so so strange watching this with the hindsight we all have. I've never seen three musicians look so in-sync and unified whilst simultaneously screaming their personal tastes and musical directions. It all looks so obvious now but it really, really wasn't at the time.
It’s just one or several effect pedals. You need one that takes the volume on and of at any speed you choose and then one that phases the sound in and out, and alloys of distortion
I believe he’s using the seeker filter on his Line 6 FM4 for this. What he’s doing on the floor there is dialing in the frequency and then the speed so that the filter matches the beat.
I'm really looking forward to live improvs like this next year. John's come a long way when it comes to electronic rhythms and the way melodies work in electronic music. He was really only just getting started here and more experimenting on stage than anything. Will be really interesting what he comes up with now, having created electronic music since leaving the band. He's got a better sense of rhythm and pacing now when it comes to that type of music. I feel as though he really came into his own as an electronic musician with Maya, there was a lot going on in comparison to his previous electronic suff and i'm thinking this will translate well to the guitar, Maya earned him the title of electronic producer for me, i took that album seriously. I'm hoping to hear not a rock guitarist experimenting with electronic sounds (which is what this sounds like to me), but an electronic artist trying out techniques on a guitar as opposed to a synth. Don't get me wrong, i love the guitar solos but when it comes to improv like this, possibilities are endless. John's new knowledge of electronic production will definitely open a new door to improv fo the band, especially for Chad.
@@user-xj8kd5lw4c i also believe Chad with get more creative cause these electronic synth type sounds have different accents in different points of the measures and will make him accent differently and get creative with it, really excited to what could happen!! Also John said he and Chad had a new communication in the creative process, john said he is also a drummer in his own way pulling from electronic music with programmed drums and stuff (before he didn't know the difference between a ride or a crash cymbal) so I think he and Chad worked harder on the drum beats for the new album making them more intricate and or busy as oppose to the classic funk rock grooves Chad has played in the past. I would really love to hear that new material and see Chad in a new vibe and switching things up!!
@@user-xj8kd5lw4c I'll also add that drums take a front seat in electronic music so for John to be influenced by that stuff i think Chad will as well, maybe even in some of the studio tracks on the album. But i definitely see it during live improv performances because they can go wild then. The album tracks will still be rock centric i'm guessing, but hopefully we'll hear some of the influences there as well, probably just not as obvious.
@@Alex-ms1tt Thank you so much for such a comprehensive answer. It makes me think about the recording of the new RHCP album from a completely different point of view. Before, I was thinking mainly about the future difference in guitar improvisation between John and Flea on the new album. But I never thought about Chad's contribution to the band's jams.
@@alexwells6876 I expect something really experimental and different from their previous albums. But at the same time, something special that makes them recognizable
Really cool use of tremolo. Similar to how The Edge uses it on U2’s song Lemon. An understanding of how to use the guitar almost as both a synth and an organ, and to let a whole song ride on it as a foundation.
John before he left the chili's was underrated. I feel like the RU-vid era made him more famous without him being in the band because people fell in love with the live versions. It led to great expectations for their latest albums, which were good but probably not as good as people expected. But I did go to 3 live shows and finally saw them love and thay was beyond my expectations haha 😄
john is playing for thousands of people and instead of shredding or playing catchy songs hes just messing with his pedal board like every home guitarist wasting time and not practicing lmao.
