It does seem a little emotionless, I do agree. But audibly, it sounds great to me.

What a load of old arse. No music in there old son. That's what happens when you spray Lynx on a bluebottle trapped in a sash window.

Sounds great to me. That's all that matters. To each their own and all that, eh?

I might suggest you needed some affirmation, hence your posting it

I know man, that's cool I really wanted to like this guy, I've read a lot about him, he was a bad lad in his youth and I thought he might have something interesting to say on the bass, but for me he's just another soloist lacking anything deep and warm in his execution and pales next to others in his class. Sorry mate.

No need to apologise, it's not me playing! I was fairly impressed with his technique etc, hadn't heard anything sounding like this before. Also my first time (knowingly) hearing a Zon bass and I enjoyed the tone.

More from Alex....different than the slapping piece posted above:

That's the first I've heard of him.
The first video needs a melody on top of it,first of all. The second video isn't blowing
me away either. Sure,he's got technique but the band video was seriously lacking in any
feel.
Of course,I may be wrong-but I'm not hunting for more videos.

[martin8708]

Kind of sounds like the London Bass Guitar show .
Great slapper , but not my type of thing .

[AndroWal]

I respect his musicianship, his energy, the time he has spent attaining where he is, his accomplishments including these videos, having the gigs he has, his relationship with Zon, his notoriety in the world........
