Skol303 Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Nice noodling guys! I'm being lazy... but here's a quick excerpt from something I'm working on. It's a very simple bassline - I'm sort of going through a "less is more phase" with my playing. But it might just be that "less is less" Drum track and strings included for context. Jazz bass with rounds: https://soundcloud.com/skol-mixes/may-noodle I'll try to do a video next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny... the intention was to capture something more 70s sounding. Maybe you were on the mushrooms during that decade and missed out on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twincam Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) Noodle bar has been slow. I've been working on something its a noodle but I can't play it haha. Anyhow I've recorded a noodle version of Elvis Costello's pump it up. And just for a shits and giggles here is a link to the actual isolated track. I like my modified version better lol. http://youtu.be/KcVuaOU8j28 http://youtu.be/nD5uZUl2e4E Edited May 30, 2017 by Twincam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Bruce Thomas? Indeed. Its amazing how different it sounds in the mix too. I love the gritty tone he gets. Sounds like he plays a fairly low action or has a robust striking technique. Probably one of my fav under the radar bassists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[url="https://soundcloud.com/skol-mixes/may-noodle"]https://soundcloud.c...ixes/may-noodle[/url] [/quote] I really like that - not taking anything away from the bassline but those orchestral strings are lovely - how? Please don't say 'an orchestra' I was sat the other day and just needed to jot something down before it vapourised. I have a Novation Circuit (£250 groovebox type-thing) for this purpose and decided I'd just put a simple groove down in 10 mins, bit of a rush but figured I'd stick it down and see how the bassline went by doing a couple of mins recordin. Changed the line a bit during the take (on purpose to see what fit best) but all in one go, no processing, recorded in Ableton. Hit play on the Circuit and played bass at the same time. And no, I couldn't settle on a lead line either - played that straight in afterwards in one go and on the Circuit's pads. Mexican Jazz, rounds that are going off, that's about it.

[/quote] I was hungry, & I picked up the bass to distract myself...so the idea did develop, but all you could hear is my other half coming in & out of the kitchen chatting about something or another, hence the short recording. TBH I'm now more worried that I've agreed to something when I wasn't paying attention...again 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
