mimsy89 Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 https://youtu.be/d77ceBv8CGw Here's one I've been working on. Had to use some awful video editor to upload it as the general camera on my phone keeps crashing so ignore the weird imprint and double shot on the sides Trying to incorporate the octave picking/typewriter technique in some of my playing Cheers Quote
mimsy89 Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 PS. Will hopefully have my PC working again soon so will be able to just record audio next time Quote

I'm currently at work so can watch but not listen... looks great (nice bass too). I'll give it a proper listen when I get home this evening. Need to get something recorded myself. It won't be anywhere near as proficient as some of you guys. [i]Yes, I am making excuses already.[/i] Quote

So I’ll probably base something on one of those and let my inner Bernard Edwards shine through Quote

It reminded me of something don't know what though. And not that bad a quality a recording. Edited February 17, 2016 by Twincam Quote

Played on a Cort Rithimic V with the tone dialled towards the bridge. Recorded DI into my computer via an EBS combo amp, everything set flat. Some compression applied in after FX. I left the hi-hat track I'd used for tempo as part of the mix. Doing this really makes me aware of how much I need to work on my timing and muting. That's a good thing, right!? *For reference: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPNLwnMoVoA[/media] Edited February 27, 2016 by Skol303 Quote

I listened very carefully twice, I could hear the strings but the muting I didn't hear anything in particular, maybe a case of your hearing it more from the bass than what's coming out? Or maybe covered over by the click track/metronome whatever lol Sounded great to me. Anyone else going to get there noodle on? Quote

FuNkShUi Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Just caught up with a few of these. Some good ones! Gonna be a tough choice Skol, i enjoyed the funk. I'll bring mine next time Quote
SubsonicSimpleton Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Bit last minute this but I thought I'd support Twincam's idea and represent the dark side of the forum. This isn't an original composition, just mucking around with a classic tune and attempting to approximate the drums and bass. Track was recorded direct into my zoom H2N and is unprocessed bar editing to length. I noticed when listening back a siren in the background, so that part got kept, and bollocks to trying to isolate the better playing later on. https://soundcloud.com/user-623375481/upright-gumbo-noodle Quote
Skol303 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Posted March 1, 2016 PS/ I'm currently traveling but will launch the voting hopefully sometime this evening! Last-minute noodles welcome in the meantime Quote
xgsjx Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Oh, we vote? Cool. I'll get listening to the tracks tomorrow. Quote
