lowdown

Had some time a couple of days ago, so thought i would give it a go. Gone down the edgy chaotic nonsense route. [url="http://soundcloud.com/garrycribb/heros-zeros"]http://soundcloud.com/garrycribb/heros-zeros[/url] Garry

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1350082550' post='1834517'] I slightly remixed mine and added some voice. That's it. [url="http://soundcloud.com/silddx/shltshoeriotface-i-ii-iii"]http://soundcloud.co...otface-i-ii-iii[/url] See if you can spot the Blackadder reference [/quote] Great stuff - I like the Acid trip vibe in the last section. Fourteen year old Urban kids playing " Moshi Pit Monsters" Some good tracks and ideas popping up again folks. Garry

[quote name='chardbass' timestamp='1349953133' post='1832581'] Definite Patitucci-facial-tourettes [/quote] Great stuff, and they are clearly enjoying it. Garry

[quote name='Pete Academy' timestamp='1349811940' post='1830956'] Decades ago, singers had to nail the songs, and musicians too. [/quote] You still do - If you don't, you wont get asked back. [This is if you are booked/hired as a freelancer] Bands paying for their own demo's/albums/tracks is a different matter, feck up as much as you want and maybe the engineer or someone producing [if you are lucky] might try and fix things for you after, but if you have run out of booked time it will cost you. Or of course you could take the Wav files home and fix it yourself. Garry

[quote name='fumps' timestamp='1349699469' post='1829207'] I'm from 1976 I would not have a clue which manufacturer was doing good stuff in my year. [/quote] Hose pipe manufacturers. Garry

[quote name='pikeman' timestamp='1349687056' post='1828981'] How many of us use effects on our basses? Surely this is just the same. [/quote] Of course - the voice is an Instrument as well [In the right hands of course - Just like Bass playing] Garry

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1349686702' post='1828971'] I got the arse because I was going to put vocals on it but needed a mic lead because mine had died and I don't want to have to go out and buy one this month and my compressor was arsing about and I couldn't get the guitar sound I wanted for the lead (which was a total botch anyway) and the drum sounds were sh*t so I compressed them and added some gain so the drums sounded great but the cymbals were too heavy and, somehow, in the wrong place and ..... You get the idea [/quote] You might find this handy...I know i does for me. It won't help you write notes and make you a million $'s, But it sure helps complicate matters.

For anyone interested. Nice run down on various stuff - Comps, EQ's and a lot of other stuff. [url="http://www.meldaproduction.com/audiotutorials/"]http://www.meldaproduction.com/audiotutorials/[/url] Garry

Queen could have done with one in the middle section of BR [b]live[/b] at Wembley, then they could have done away with the Backing track ... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oozJH6jSr2U[/media] Garry

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1349633702' post='1828528'] hmmmmm.... something like thus is taking the p************** IMO. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r7wuiOFNOg&feature=fvwrel[/media] [/quote] Yep - Those carpet slippers get right up my f**k**g nose. Garry

[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1349631929' post='1828495'] The technology is there to help. Why not use it? [/quote] I agree - The whole music business is about technology. Bands and Duo's having been using them for years - as in anything, some of the units are not so good, and a couple of them sound great. I think the OP is talking about Harmonising or doubling up, not pitch correcting Garry

I recently came back from the states, and i had a few dollars floating around in my pocket. So what do i spend it on? A '57 Precision ? [url="http://www.gbase.com/gear/fender-precision-bass-1957-see-through-blonde"]http://www.gbase.com/gear/fender-precision-bass-1957-see-through-blonde[/url] Or a '57 Chevy 2 door post ?

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1349610162' post='1828190'] Mind you The Beatles, Led Zep, Jaco, Jamerson etc ain't that current but it doesn't stop people talking about it! [/quote] True......... But then again you would have to dig most of them up for them to be on the '"live" scene. Garry

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1349609427' post='1828175'] I loved em. I really liked how they changed and progressed album to album, getting better each time. It's a pisser that they split. I realise it ain't current and they split up time ago, but it still souns fresh. [/quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]No not very current, but saying that, Roisin Murphy is still very active on the live club scene, and very well liked - Plenty up there on Youtube.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Garry[/font][/color]

I thought they were great, they kinda helped move House Music on a bit at that time. Roisin Murphy has quite a few solo tracks out there. Garry

[quote name='StageAhead' timestamp='1349509403' post='1827120'] It's in german but you can still benefit from the transcriptions i made. [url="http://four-strings-basslessons.blogspot.de/"]http://four-strings-...ns.blogspot.de/[/url] [/quote] Translates nicely in Chrome. Good site by the way.

[quote name='OzMike' timestamp='1349449681' post='1826523'] I don't really get the negative comments about fusion. [/quote] I understand negative comments, that's just down to opinions really. But to turn up to a thread to listen to music you hate ? and talk about dogging? Priceless. Garry

If you mean this - Yep it's great. [url="http://soundcloud.com/billyhollywoodlee/eleanor-rigby-billy-lee"]http://soundcloud.com/billyhollywoodlee/eleanor-rigby-billy-lee[/url] Garry

It's called comping. Good players know how to comp. Bad keyboard players think it's a freebie ticket for a concert. Garry

Congrats on the new birth. To me it sounds like "The" Band has a few newborns amongst it's ranks. Garry

I thought it was a scene from "Grease"........ Garry

Yep, well done Skol. Garry

[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1349027356' post='1820852'] there isn't enough time left to be listening to this. [/quote] Yet you keep coming back... Only kidding. Rough and ready funk - but still hits the spot for me, lots of energy. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUHUNbzhPQI[/media] Lenny White with a very young Marcus Miller.

MLD is superb.... Another one for checking out Lee [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ritenour and 'Rhythm Sessions', great playing all round.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Great stuff.[/font][/color] G[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]arry[/font][/color]

Add another to the club. Joplin fan here, and yes very cool Bass playing. Garry
