[quote name='urb' post='820231' date='Apr 27 2010, 08:30 AM']Hey peeps I know this thread doesn't get updated much - but when it does... Just check this new arrival out - I'm sorry I don't know the owner though I did see this bass in production, but this is what Seis are all about - sheer jaw dropping craftsmanship and attention to detail - and they sound and play amazong too: That thing is sick... I hoped I wouldn't see another Sei that would make me think about getting another - fact is I simply can't afford it - Martin and John strike again... And [b][url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOcusMQx5lg"]here's a vid[/url][/b] of some Sei Single cut noodling I made recently Cheers guys Mike[/quote]That i possibly the most stunninglt detailed bass ive ever seen...he really is a master..

I havent had bad gas for a while...until now...

my gas at the mo are an Alembic Rougue 5 this incredible looking Celinder J4 and a this Fender CS Jazz..oh i got one...

why dont people make POP records like this anymore?!! this is a proper pop record [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDqO4nxk3xI&feature=PlayList&p=44B39F25810C8A0D&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=9"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDqO4nxk3xI...t=1&index=9[/url]

[quote name='deathpanda' post='817574' date='Apr 24 2010, 08:55 PM']meh. for the sake of not being an anti-social prick I have really tried and tried to listen to stuff like this, but by the end I always feel unmoved and uninspired. I then look to stuff like this in complete awe: the dynamics of the drums, the way the bass is completely locked in and the way everyone's feeling what they play really does move and inspire me. and that's only a video I found the other day.. I know stuff like that isn't appreciated by the masses, but I listened to stuff like that before I started studying music and it really ponders the question why other people won't spend some time to appreciate what these guys are doing compared to people like Britney. over producing music like that just takes anyway any "life" the music had, and to me just sounds as dull as the drone of a refrigerator. sorry for the angry tone, just giving my honest opinion.[/quote] WOW, that bass playing was immense..love the honk too... do you know who the bassist is DP?

check these out...have you ever seen a bassist slap as intensly as this.. also a great interview.. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewr8cEQEbfs"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewr8cEQEbfs[/url] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwCzTo20d18"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwCzTo20d18[/url]

if you like it all good to you..although it doesnt do it for me i still tap my foot to it...thats what POP is designed for...its not suppose to touch your soul...

Frickin awsome Pete...love that tune too!!! George Duke is great

i would love tp clean up that bass

Awsome stuff...the small solo up high is superb

Yeah tried this one at BD...Very very nice bass..also the lightest bass ever [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Esh_Sovereign_5_Poplar.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp...n_5_Poplar.html[/url]

try Gumtree..i have had lots of interest on there...

[quote name='Deep Thought' post='816750' date='Apr 23 2010, 09:51 PM']I would say Ray Charles has gotta be in there somewhere. Zappa I have no problem with. Another I'd say has to be getting pretty close is John Paul Jones. I also hate to say it, 'cos I've hated much of his stuff (although I've grudgingly actually quite liked a couple of others), but another is Gary Barlow. And right out of left field, for me a vote goes to Mark E. Smith.[/quote] sorry but i know i said genius is in the eye of the beholder but 'Gary Barlow'???? this is getting silly..how far can you travel from the word.. i may add i do like some of his songs...

[quote name='phil.i.stein' post='816726' date='Apr 23 2010, 09:22 PM']true.., but most of your other suggestions were groups of people rather than individuals, and as for shakin' stevens, well you must know something i don't. [/quote] i dont think Pete specified single artists or groups..most of which were single artists anyways...ok i was jesting with SS..

this is turning into a (who do i like best) thread, which i guess is the point of the term genius..each has there own.. there is a defining term though..

Thought i might post this awsome woman....Ani DiFranco... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MnYyBGnznU"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MnYyBGnznU[/url] live version [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya8zuiIU-4E"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya8zuiIU-4E[/url]

sorry to do the Wiki Pete..there are so many ways to describe someone as a genius.. [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius[/url] im baffled as to why (apart from HJ) know one has mentioned the classics..IMHO..know one alive today can come close to Beethoven, Holst, Wagner, Mozart..they will prob never be touched today in musical ability.. apart from those i would say Stevie Wonder Donald Fagan and co Prince Shakin Stevens Micheal Jackson John Coltrane Elton John and co Pink Floyd bass wise for me, there is only one really that falls into this catagory and its Victor Wooten..i cant think of anyone who takes it further..who is a true pioneer.. the word genius is so over used...theres immense talent and then there is genius...

[quote name='uzzell' post='810162' date='Apr 18 2010, 11:08 AM']Yawn.[/quote] whats the point in posting if its negative? its only my opinion and i know this is yours, but i wonder if you could entertain us with your bass playing like Marcus Miller can.i doubt it....sorry im having a bad day..

no tapping here..ok a bit of slapping...fingerstyle magic

Im sure some have seen this before but this is why i love Marcus soooo much...wonderful playing from the master of soulful bass playing...i defy anyone not to love the sound of his jazz bass...his solo at the start is wonderful..then he hits you with that killer slap hook.... tis a very young MM with Sanborn IMHO the best track/clip ive ever seen of this magician of the electric bass..i love it just before he comes in with the slap he adjusts his basses tone....his slap bass is something to behold at 3.10 onwards.... whoops..
