All that, only to fall foul of Rule 3... [quote][b]3) Entries should be no more than five minutes long...[/b][/quote] ...and he was doing so well, too..! No, but seriously... Yet another masterpiece from the Master. Great stuff, Al; a very serious contender. (Note to the Jury: Please deal with these excesses with lenience; he means no harm, and is an inspiration to others. OK, 2 hours might be too much (Hmmm..?), but what's a couple of dozen seconds between friends, eh..? Clemency, mercy, tolerance; all fine qualities, and, after all is said and done: "No Guitars or Animals were harmed". I rest my case... ) Edited March 17, 2014 by Dad3353 Quote

Skol303 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Posted March 23, 2014 Ok, I'm in! A very brief and hasty effort from me this month... but better than nowt. https://soundcloud.com/skollob/the-light-that-burns-twice-as I avoided the flamenco route because I'd never heard of Paco De Lucia until his name cropped up on Basschat [i](yes, I am a cultural heathen!) and[/i] I didn't really get 'flamenco' from the picture. Nor can I actually play flamenco, which is more the point! So I noodled something on the bass, added some strings and several layered recordings of me 'oooo'ing' and 'aaaaah'ing', drenched everything in spacey reverb and that was that. Feedback welcome as always. [b]I'll be posting up the voting thread tomorrow (Monday) at midnight.[/b] If you're still working on something after the deadline then drop me a message and I'll make sure your track gets added.

xgsjx Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 I was hoping to have mine finished, but never got to touch it at the weekend. I'll post what I've done at lunchtime. Quote

I use a Warwick... bought for a very good price from a fellow Basschatter. Can't say I'm anywhere near proficient in terms of playing it - the unlined neck is still something I'm getting used to - but I love the freedom of expression it offers [i](NB: that's code for me saying "my intonation sucks!" ).[/i] [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1395643633' post='2404557'] I was hoping to have mine finished, but never got to touch it at the weekend.
