 Refrain din po from repeating patterns (e.g. 3 notes per string scale patterns) if you want to sound "jazzy."   :-)

Agree po, bro fuse. Holdsworth uses 4 notes per string.

meron pa pala. sa Sax emulation, Breathing helps - that is, try to get away from playing run-on lines longer than you can hold your breath. Sax lines are defined by breathing (aside from using the circular breathing trick), kaya mas 'human' yung length ng phrases. Then maximize intervals. Sax players can get away with 4 measures/longer by just playing fifths, octaves and trills hehehe. daya no?  :-D

OT @aya_yuson: When you formed Wdouji, was Coco Bermejo your drummer ever since? Was Wdouji able to play with Majam on occasion? If yes, when were those occasions? Thanks!  :-)

Yes, Koko was our drummer from the start.

Nung una, wala pa ako. Sina Koko at Ron T ang nag-umpisa ng Wdouji. Tas sumama ang "The" Simon Tan.

Nung una si Ira Cruz kasama nila. Di ako sigurado kung hanggang jam at ensayo lang sila non o kung nakapag-gig din sila.

Tas nakasama nila si kumpareng Nikki Cabardo (Freestyle keyboardist). Nung naging busy sobra si Nikki sa Freestyle, ako ang kinuha para mag-sub. Two monday gigs lang dapat 'yon.

After the 2nd gig, kinausap ako ni Koko. Tinanong kung gusto kong sumali on a permanent basis. Syempre ang sagot ko, "OO BA!!!".  :lol:

Kaso nagpunta kami ng Freeverse sa San Francisco nang isang linggo. So sabi ko pagbalik ko, game na.

Kampante akong walang bangga sa monday gig ng Wdouji sa Freedom Bar dahil sa buong anim na buwang nakasama ko ang Freeverse (at ang singer nilang si Sailor Moon), ni minsan 'di kami nagkaroon ng gig ng lunes.

Eh, mantakin mo ba namang nung tumotogs na ko sa Wdouji every Monday sa Freedom Bar, nagkaroon ng gig ang Freeverse tuwing lunes.

Pinapili ako ni Celeste.

Eh, mas importante sa kin ang oks na togs kaysa makintab na sapatos (at di ko na talaga matiis si Sailor Moon at ang kanyang p____nanginang dimples, so nag-full-time na 'ko sa Wdouji.

2001 'yon.

Mula n'on hanggang ngayon, di na uli ako tumogs sa showband.

Sabi ko na galing ka ng Freeverse e. Sailor Moon, E-hehehehehe!  :-D

Anyway, nakasabay niyo ba ang Majam na tumugtog sa isang venue?

Nung nasa Wdouji pa ko? Ewan ko, di ko na maalala. Medyo... parang rollercoaster ride ang buhay ko nung mga sandaling yon, eh. Di ko na maalala, sorry.

hindi ako nagtutunog jazz pag nagsosolo ako.. talagang ayaw ng pulso ko magtunog jazz,, nakakafrustrate, parang ayaw ko na humawak ng gitara, pano ba kasi? ano ba problema ko sa pagsosolo? hehe..

baby steps muna kiddo - forget about the chords and scales - try to "get" the jazz vocabulary, understand it, internalize it. Don't listen to guitarists first - listen to horn players solos' - analyze the way they phrase their lines.

Try to sing or hum your solos like George Benson or a scat singer. Then pick up your guitar and try to play the music in your head.

I was first introduced to jazz when i was still playing bass. pinakinig ako ng mentor ko ng Abe Laboriel. Kaya eto...











Balik major scale songs muna. di ko kinaya eh. :-D :-D :-D

Pero seriously, i started feeling na marunong na ko magjazz ng konti with :

1) syempre listening
2) the "hum". - hum the notes. do something like " lalala-la" or "doo-roo-roo" and let the notes fly. i feel mo lang kahit off-scale.
3) record that and try to listen again.
4) tpos iapply sa guitar. (kapain mo lang kung wala kang introduction to music theory)
5) tapos apply guitar style elements like hammer-ons, pull offs, slides. try different combinations depende parin sa feel.
6) record and listen.

masaya yan. hehe

also one of the most import thing on learning jazz is to play with other musicians. so get out of ur practice room and play, communicate, listen and groove with other musicians! as soon as u get ur ego out of the way the sooner u'll be a better musician!

First of all, WDOUJI was originally Koko Bermejo, Simon Tan, Ronald Tomas and Ira Cruz.
I was the johnny-come-lately.
Second, we never performed with MAJAM, to my knowledge.
