today a musical experiment on a style that all the music that i like comes from there blues "blouse" is a garment used to protect oneself against stains blues is one of the major styles of the 20th century, popularized by legendary musicians like robert johnson or big bill broonzy, coming from the south of the united states.there are many descendants of the blues including jazz, its nephew, but also its two children: rock n 'roll and rhythm and blues all the music that i love...above all, blues is a grid
a chord grid, or "cadence",that is to say a progression of chords in the "twelve bar blues" it is always exactly the same chords in the very same order it could explain the fact that every musician who has already made a jam session at least once in its life has heard this :"or maybe we could play a blues" i decided to play a modern blues with a rock sound so i need a very heavy drums and a very low tempo the pattern is ternary : each quarter note decomposed into three eighth it's called "shuffle"the stresses are on 1 and 3
folk guitar is the harmonic base. we can chose between "picking" playing with our fingers or "strumming" with small plectrums for the bass it's very simple, the key is to "hold the line" by the way, blue bassists are the only people in the world authorized to frown and do a duckface while playing ok let's go guys! with electric guitar we'll play solo parts even if the song is in a major keywe play in the minor pentatonic scale stophere is my favorite moment
at the eleventh bar comes the "turnaround" this is blues blues is a music for complainingif unfortunately everything's fine in your life and you do not have anything to complain about pick the list of magical words that we always use "baby" it's good ... "gone" it's goodand then form two short sentences that you repeat in loop (...) blues has influenced a lot of styles, so you can find it mixed
with just about anything: rock for example,to create blues rock, style of the black keys or zouk: it creates bloozook, style ... and of course funk: it makes blufunk, the style of keziah jones for blues rock we will accelerate the tempo and put distortion on the guitar watch my video on "le rock qui tache" if you havn't seen it yet for blufunk we will replace the blues bass with a funky bass change the drum pattern to make it groove and turn the chords into minor ones.i don't know if it's very clear ... don't move is it me or are keziah jones is in my studio...
well well well, now i need to see youbye
