Clarky Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Thanks but I have no idea how to record my bass and I am heading off into the European heatwave tomorrow! Maybe I can step in during July/August ... once I have figured out the technology bit! Edited June 26, 2019 by Clarky Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Crikey, you lot need to get your phones out! I admit it, I'm addicted to this so I've done a quicky as a filler. Tell me to b***r off if I'm hogging the spotlight! This should be 100% easy to get! 1 Quote
Hobbayne Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 No idea what the song is, but I love the sound of you chucking your bass downstairs at the end!! 😂 3 Quote

God only knows what this crap I found on my hard drive is, bu I think it dates from the 1980s... 😫 Pedwar_Random Bits.mp3 Should clarify this is not a bassline to be identified, it's just some random guitar and someone hitting a box. Done badly. Edited June 27, 2019 by Stub Mandrel 1 Quote

I don't think you're allowed to guess your own tune. 😀 edit: Ah, I see you edited to say it's not a question. 😉 Edited June 27, 2019 by Ricky 4000 Quote

Ricky 4000 Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) I'll accept the title of the 1975 funky original, or the 2018 remix / cover / sample-fest... 👍 Edited June 27, 2019 by Ricky 4000 Quote

Johnny Wishbone Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) It's that Chaka Khan song, isn't it? Can't remember the title but it's sampled from the Fatback Band's "Do the Bus Stop". Disclaimer: I'm currently camping in a field near Caernarfon so am unable to contribute a new clip. Edit: very nicely played too! 👍🏻 Edited June 27, 2019 by Johnny Wishbone 1 1 Quote

Cheers Neil, One of the few benefits of practice! 😀 It's one of those that needs to be bob on, and I'm not quite there with it yet... quite interesting, when I picked it up the other day - I can't play the main bit across the strings without it sounding rough, so I played it just on the D string... I assume that's how the original was played, but with the addition of a little palm damping. Funky little line, though. 👍 Edited June 28, 2019 by Ricky 4000 1 Quote
