JamesBass Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Been jamming with my drummer buddy today and we had some really tasty groove going, couple of bars of pushing it and then reigning it in and sitting just behind the beat nice and lazy, then finally bringing it home nice and straight! Was such a good jam! Beat manipulation is such a great tool we as bass players have! It doesn't get used enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidder652003 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 why did the darker side of my imagination think this was about something completely different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Had a very good drummer in last night and his tendency was to push. Felt uncomfortable to me and I didn't like it in the first set. He loosened up in the second and we had more fun... For me, the best feel/groove drummers tend to be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I do prefer it more behind than in front, but sometimes you can really mess with the guitarists and singers by just pushing it!

tonyquipment Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I like it really sloppy Sometimes it's too restrictive when you are all too tight It's a bit robotic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
