  1. OnTheDownLow

    Pretty neat find inside of an LP sleeve last night.

    Last night my friend was hanging out with me and I got on the topic of early Chicago. My friend hasn't really been exposed to a lot of the older music besides from what I have shown him over the years and he had never heard It Better End Soon. So I decided to go shuffle through my records and...

    Guy told my rock music is too Bass oriented

    Salut all One of my friend is also an amateur musician. He plays mostly guitars and keyboards. Drums and bass also. He records in solo and does a lot of demo. He finds my music too bass oriented (I don't do Jazz Fusion or styles where the bass is the lead thing) Some of his words are : - My...

    was a rickenbacker used on “the stranger” album by billy joel?

    contrary to the mid-heavy p bass sound of the 70s, billy joel’s albums around the late 70s period had a very throaty bridge pickup sound. i tried to get the sound with my jazz bass, but it’s just too thin. i’ve seen pictures of the bassist he used for the recordings of that album in 1977, and...

    How does my bass sound ? Midscooped ? Thin ? Hollow ?

    Salut all I made that album Easy Way Down alone. I am wondering what are you thoughts about the bass mix and tone. Is it far from standard industry ? Is it rather classic ? Is it too midscooped ? Or too mid heavy ? Too boomy ? Too thin ? Lacking specific frequencies ? Not the same bass on...

    Post your most recent release!

    I’m sure this has been done many times, but doesn’t hurt to refresh the list. Just like the title says, drop a link to your most recent release (album/EP/single), if you’d like.

    who i believe to be one of the most underrated songwriters...

    mr todd rundgren. if you mention that name to most ordinary people on the street who don’t have an obsession with music, depending on their age, they’ll either say “who?” or maybe the odd “oh didn't he write hello it’s me/i saw the the light?”, and really it’s just a shame. ever since i...

    Regardless of genre, some albums are simply louder than others. I really dig these loud albums, especially when they're of the rock variety. Gimme a couple of these and a great pair of headphones or in-ears and I'm a happy camper. Bummer that some of my all-time faves just don't have enough...

    ESP Horizon II bass and Darkglass Microtubes 900 on this album preview

    Any ideas on what I could do with the bass sound to get a better tone? I'm not averse to re-recording it actually, wanted to play fingerstyle. This was played with a pick.

    What's your best *debut* album of all time?

    For me that answer has always been Led Zeppelin 1. Every one of the 9 songs is a home run in my opinion. The "weakest" track for me is Black Mountain Side, but the way Your Time Is Gonna Come bleeds into it, it's almost like it's one song. This album has so much raw power and balls-out blues...
