ambient

I'm into the 'darker' stuff, Penderecki, Messiaen, I like Dvorak and Elgar's cello works, and the more contemporary stuff like Glass and Reich. Also newer composer like like Nico Murhly.

[quote name='lojo' timestamp='1427176934' post='2726696'] I can but it's all subjective , I've never got or understood classical music , not sure if that's just me or due to upbringing , lack of education etc. Either way it's nice to see you finding real joy in it , maybe I will also one day [/quote] It's not lack of education or upbringing. My dad hates it, and my brother is openly hostile against it, and makes fun of me listening to it. I was never introduced to it as a child, it's a recent thing, maybe the last 3 or 4 years. I think it's just a case of listening to it, maybe finding a composer that you like to start with and then let that grow.

Try these people, a one off £20 payment for a year, and you can release as many tracks as you want. They put it on iTunes, amazon, spotify etc. [url="https://distrokid.com"]https://distrokid.com[/url]

Maybe contact him through his website or Facebook. I've heard that he's very helpful and does reply.

Have you tried google ? I remember coming across something last year where there was a list of his effects thorough the years. He used the phase 90 a lot in the early 80s.

With regard to expression, beauty and emotion ? I find that I'm listening to more and more classical music recently. Except for stuff that I do for uni, I don't listen to anything with a rhythm section at all. I just heard Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings on classic FM, what a beautiful piece of music. Earlier they played the theme to Schindlers list by John Williams. I can't think of a contemporary piece of music that's so hauntingly beautiful.

There was a thread that I started recently where a few of the contributors seemed to take great pleasure in ridiculing what I'd posted, or rather what they [b][i]thought[/i][/b] I'd posted, which wasn't actually the same thing at all.

[quote name='aidanhallbass' timestamp='1427058253' post='2725298'] Not eBay but I just put a wanted ad on gumtree and was contacted by someone offering me what I wanted and sent pictures.. Turns out the pictures are from another live ad in Scotland when they claimed to live in poole. They requested I sent money to them via bank transfer as they didn't have paypal. These are the details they used 07974589172 [email protected] Thanks [/quote] I always only ever deal in person with buying or selling on Bumtree, seems to be the best thing.

[quote name='Drax' timestamp='1427064504' post='2725440'] Money split them up but it's brought them back together again [/quote] Yeah, I heard that whoever did the songwriting gave everyone a cut of the songwriting royalties, but stopped that when the band split up. So they took him to court to get it reinstated. He was totally within his rights to do this, the wording of the contract at the time allowed for it, but for obvious reasons they were a bit peeved. Though they still received royalties from being on the original recordings.

I thought they'd all fallen out, besides the 2 brothers ?

Well, the usual thing at a bass show is to slap something very loud, and not pay any notice at all to timing accuracy

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1426888301' post='2723264'] Do they, though? [/quote] Well yes, this is a remix, not an original work. Unless the remix guy got permission which I doubt, then the owner is the original composer/songwriter.

[quote name='Chrismanbass' timestamp='1426960112' post='2724114'] problem being that it's not his original work its an arrangement of a previously copyrighted piece of music [/quote] That's what I was getting at in my first post.

[quote name='uk_lefty' timestamp='1426971619' post='2724378'] Am i too late to put in my recently acquired Trace rig?? And yes, the amp face does light up. [/quote] Cool, love the way you have your gear mounted on the wall

The Motown book is pretty good. Jazz walking bass line transcriptions are good too, most pop or rock lines are often quite diatonic, walking bass lines often throw in non diatonic/chromatic passing notes that can trip you up.

[quote name='warriorbass05' timestamp='1398211395' post='2431777'] oh boy.....I am running out of room for all this green goodness! [url="http://s70.photobucket.com/user/warriorbass05/media/Trace_zpse1e15a16.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Have you had to have your floor strengthened ?

Sounds to me like the battery in your bass.

That looks pretty cool. How long do you actually play for ?

[quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1426888433' post='2723266'] I'm pretty sure that if you post some original thing on YouTube, YouTube owns the rights to it. [/quote] I'm not sure that's right. I have a few videos on youtube with my music, I don't remember giving up my rights to the ownership of it.

Surely all the copyrights belong to the original composer/songwriter ?

I use Status on my Modulus, not the greatest strings, but they're OK. If you want Thomastik, then get them from Thomman.
