Can I ask what bass are you using on this? The whole song sounds great. I love the tension at the beginning.

Thanks for the kind words, @Swipter! I'll pass on the comments to our fearless BL.

We actually recorded the song back in November, and only recently added video segments to it. I try and pick the bass which nails down what I'm hearing in my head... I had to go back through our text thread, and found I had used my G&L SB-2T for this recording.

The intro guitar riff is simple note wise, but it took me forever to feel the pattern of it... I can do it in my sleep, and actually have a bit of fun with it.

Again, thanks for listening!

couple of new songs released from our band yesterday.

I’m kind of proud of this one coming together in under 20 mins out of nowhere hehe

It had been a long time that I wanted to do a bass cover in the company of another bass player and in the end I decided to do it ... an Italian disco dance track from the 70s played in pairs with a friend of mine using both our Fender Precision American Performer .. Enjoy!

After all, aren't two bass players better than one?

 

[lupien]

A classic!

 

[Farrin D]

Boogie on Reggae Woman!

I had such a blast recording this Green Day track. One of those times where you really feel the joy of playing.

I made a quick recording of my current metal bass tone and thought I'd post it for appraisal.

It's nothing fancy but I really like how it's sounding so far.

I had really fun when I recorded Talk Talk’s It’s My Life

The 70’s were a wonderful period for the electric bass, especially in funky and disco music, where our instrument excelled and was the absolute protagonist. As in the case of a classic of those years such as Last Train to London by Electric Light Orchestra, shown here and played with my trusty Fender Precision American Performer in single coil mode... enjoy!

Evening fellow groovers. Who here digs James Jamerson? That's probably a silly question. I've spent a while learning Darling Dear by Jackson 5. Would love any feedback you have! Cheers, hope you're all alright!

Bass tribute to the legendary movie of Brandon Lee, enjoy!

Bass cover of an Arctic Monkeys song played with my Precision Performer in PJ mode!

 

[andruca]

Playing with my SR5 with flats and Reaper. Once these flats lost their initial zingyness it immediately pushed me into "Juan Diàcono" Stingray tone territory. I might have been hearing this song for 35+ years, but only yesterday I learned how to play it. SO MUCH FUN IN 2 MINUTES 15! (and most music I've done sounds so static every time I play stuff like this) Using my Zoom B3 as audio interface on this one, simple SansAmp+comp. patch.

 

[Thomas Allin]

Inspired by this very funny drum video, I gave it a try on the bass; "What if THEY played bass on Toto's Africa". It is simply for fun...

You will hear: Bill Black (Elvis), Paul McCartney, Gene Simmons, Sting, Chris Squier, Mark King, Joe Dart, Carol Kaye, Rutger Gunnarsson, Bootsy Collins, Marcus Miller, Jaco Pastorius, John Entwistle, Steve Swallow.

Have a good day!

Short improvisation in slap with big muff, enjoy!

 

[dave84]

I finally found the acoustic bass of my dreams and I couldn't resist trying with a song that I think is very suitable for an acoustic bass ... enjoy!

Recorded this on a defretted ESP LTD6 tuned to drop A.
Enjoy!
