Anthony Muthurajah - Bass Virtuoso, Educator and Youtube Sensation!

This week I'm sitting down to talk bass with virtuoso player and Youtube creator Anthony Muthurajah.

Anthony is a phenomenal player with incredible chops and a wonderful, laid back style of teaching. His channel featured in my Top 20 Youtube Channels video and I've been a huge fan of his work for the past few years.

So today, Anthony and I delve into some specifics of playing and also talk about teaching, recording and much more

Anthony is a blessing to many musicians. His knowledge, way of teaching, philosophy and amazing skills are an inspiration. I have learned a lot from him and to those who haven’t watched his channel, there is a plethora of music education that you will receive and if you take advantage and put in the time and work to practice, you will become a great musician! Thank you Anthony!

He has THE greatest music channel on youtube. If you are not yet a member on his channel, you have to sign up asap. He litterally talks about the stuff that you need to hear, not simple tricks or hacks. This guy is the real deal.

Only channel i really learned important stuff from to be honest.

My two favorite YouTube bassists. Thanks for sharing the brilliant conversation. Sounds like Anthony needs to get into

[BrunoMigliari]

Great interview. Got me curious about Muthurajah's music.

I found Anthony by accident also on Utube. Here was a guy playing a white squire jazz bass and his tone was beautiful! His bass chord playing opened my eyes to lots of compositional possibilities on the bass alone. I also love the fact that he wants you to figure shit out on your own. There are players like Mark of talking Bass and Scott from Scott's bass lessons that are great at explaining nuts and bolts which is nessasary then there are guys like Anthony that really force you to 🤔 think.

Love Anthony’s channel… even if it’s often ‘a bit’ advanced for me.

I still own the Jeff Berlin DVD. It's called 'Bass Logic from the Players School of Music', featuring Pat Martino, Dennis Chambers and Richard Drexler.

Loving the cardiacs T, mark! Ever thought of having Jim on the show?

[ctodd]

Thanks! Super insightful interview. Does anyone have the challenge Mark refers to around minute 36? In my practice I've kind of come to a bit of a stand still and have been giving plenty of thought to how to develop new practice routines. There was a lot of stuff discuss to think about.
