🎁 Matte Glaze Lick – Immanuel Wilkins (PDF in 3 Keys)

🎁 Matte Glaze Lick – Immanuel Wilkins – Working the Rhythm

This is not just a flashy run. It’s a modern rhythmic concept packed into a single line — a shifting, elastic phrase from Immanuel Wilkins’ solo on “Matte Glaze” off his 2024 album Blues Blood.

What makes this lick so powerful isn’t just the notes — it’s how Wilkins stretches time. Moving between 32nd notes and 16th-note triplets, this phrase bends the beat while keeping clarity and intention.

You’ll hear it, feel it, and now — with this transcription — you can study it, slow it down, and bring it into your own playing.
