Twincam Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 I will have a listen later on and vote. Seems a couple less noodles this week? Quote
elephantgrey Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) My votes this month are for agwin, rikki and skol. Edited May 1, 2016 by elephantgrey Quote
TheGreek Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Voted!! The diversity in tone is outstanding considering we're all supposedly playing the same instrument - particularly impressed with Funkshui and XGSJX's tone even though they're miles apart. Keep up the good work fellas. Quote
CamdenRob Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) These get better and better each month... My favourite three out of another excellent bunch are Agwin, xgsjx and subsonic. Agwin's piece is wonderfully musical and I think sounds like a full blown composition, albeit only a minute in length... I can imagine it being used under a fond reminiscing type scene in a movie... Great musicality and smooth tasteful execution. xgsjx's offering grooves harder than any of the others to my ears this month. I love the attack you add to the key notes whilst holding back a little on the passing and build up notes. It's dynamic and punchy and everything I think a good bass line should be. I could listen to SubsonicSimpleton's playing all day and if he brought out a solo album I'd buy it in an instant. This is another example of expressive and emotive DB playing, showcasing a flawless technique and some inspired creativity... Love it. Edited May 2, 2016 by CamdenRob Quote

Si600 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 [quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1462114761' post='3040364'] I will have a listen later on and vote. Seems a couple less noodles this week? [/quote] One of those was mine, despite having all month the deadline snuck up on me Quote
Twincam Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 My vote is in. My fav this month is dad3353's entry. Thought it sounded nicely lo fi it just had something to it that reminded me of an old lp. My other votes was for the U2 one and the Primus one lol see if you can work out who I voted for. Again all were very good. My recording quality was again the worst, going to soundcloud next month to try improve it slightly more YouTube really degraded the original that could be a good thing lol. Quote
Dad3353 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167485] Lo-Fi..? How dare you, sir..! Harrumph..! I'll have you know that that's the finest equipment available to Man, recoded in ideal, spacious conditions by a recognised musician..! Lo-fi, indeed..! Harrumph..! ... ... ([i]It's simply a chorus effect..![/i] ) Quote
Rikki1984 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) Voted great stuff - Agwin's effort was the standout for me! Edited May 3, 2016 by Rikki1984 Quote
Twincam Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 Well I see I'm at least drawn in last place with my fav piece this month currently!. So that might suggest my taste in noodles and my noodle making is crap haha. Quote

CamdenRob Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Last day chaps.... Looks like a close finish! The excitement is palpable due to the shear volume of votes this month! Quote
Skol303 Posted May 8, 2016 Author Posted May 8, 2016 Congratulations to SubsonicSimpleton! Another fine show. And well done to every other noodler I'll launch the next challenge sometime today in the Rec' forum. Quote

Agwin Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 It took me a while to whittle it down to three (again). I usually listen through headphones but the other day I was blasting the noodles through my sound system for full effect when I was joined by Mrs Agwife who couldn’t resist dancing around to Subsonic’s worthy winner – Congratulations, Sir. Well done to everyone who contributed a noodle - such incredible diversity on display. Quote

CamdenRob Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 Also, due to the decidedly underwhelming level of interest, next month I might try and bribe BCers to vote with some sort of bass related prize... Kinda like a raffle... We need more voters! Quote

Beer of the Bass Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 Oops, I've missed the voting! Was going to go for Subsonic Simpleton, XGSX and Camden Rob. Quote
