Treble down, Bass up, that's the way we like to pluck!

 I'm getting quite into using a foam mute for the early Ska sound.  

obviously he is a pro bass player , its true that some folks have loud EQ & play the bass very soft ,,

i am the opposite , i often play the bass so heavy i don't really need an amp ;) 

funk is different even tho there are many great soft players, we like the soul of the bass to sing scream & shout, squeak , cry, even laugh,

i know its a reggae blog , yet have upload this ,, btw i probably jam even worse than Johnson probably on par with Mark Adams , of whom some youtubers thought i was mark hansolar himself,, i really go for it when the bag is out ,, string breakin slap

I prefer real bass but I got this by Raphael off the Trojan forum, nice beat 

 

real bass ? all through the thread i have emphasized how jazz was the basic bedrock, Louis Jordan, Parker , Sam Cooke , Johnny Ace, & others ,,, lol ,, we will leave jaco pastorious out of it

instead, the initial 1st chess move, i call upon one of the greatest scientists known to man, not a bass player , a prophetic message ,, the message to you Rudyimage.thumb.png.cb9704346b2008465dce8ad7373e9a81.png

the greatest thing you can ever learn ?

Some B sides are better than the A 

 

staying with the current thread " real bass" i don't know how to express this without taking small steps ,, initially, its not whether reggae bass is better than funk bass ,,, Bass is Bass

what happens after that could be considered astounding.  as DJ Fabio would say great time to drop a lemon ,,, :)
