DESCRIPTION:
Now you can learn how to play the Rhodes part from Butterfly step by step, by following the notes as they light up on the midi keyboard. This is a note-for-note transcription played at half speed and filmed in HD.

These videos should also be useful for anybody wanting to figure out a particular lick or a chord voicing from a track.

For more music using the Fender Rhodes, inspired by Herbie Hancock and Jamiroquai, check out Resolution 88:

About this 'Half-Speed Series':
I transcribe the song first, then I record and video it on my suitcase Rhodes.
Next, I perform the song again - on my Nord Stage 2 - and record just the midi from that performance. The reason I do it this way is because the articulation and weighting of chords is very important; you will notice that the intensity of the colour of the keys when they light up is related to the velocity. That way, it's easier to see which notes are 'ghost' notes and which lines to bring out. I decided that a second 'human' performance (with slight differences) was therefore much more helpful than a robotic midi performance created from a Sibelius export.

I only do about three takes maximum and I use complete, unedited takes, so there may well be occasional differences between the audio and the notes that light up on the midi keyboard. These are very minor and will often only be timing discrepancies.

If you like what I do and you wish to see transcriptions of other quintessential Fender Rhodes based music, then please subscribe to my channel and leave comments to let me know the tracks you're interested in!

Thanks for taking the time to listen and watch!
